‘It’s deadly for all of us’

A tank at a storage facility in Villa Hills sits just across from the Ohio River. The company plans to store the chemical styrene there. Styrene is a carcinogen and the company needs special approval from a zoning board to be allowed to store it. GRACE PRITCHETT/THE ENQUIRER

Villa Hills residents don’t want a toxic chemical next door In May, a styrene leak in India killed at least 11 people and injured hundreds, according to BBC News. “If there’s an accident, it’s deadly for all of us,” said Chandler Smith, 33, a Villa Hills resident. Smith and her husband, Blake Smith, 35, can see the facility from their house. TransMontaigne described the area as rural in its air permit modiﬁ cation application to the Kentucky Department of Environmental Protection. But, a handful of homes along Route 8 gives the area a suburban feel. When the Smiths heard about the styrene plan, they launched an online petition and scheduled weekly meetings. Each week, a bundle of neighbors gather on the Smith’s patio just yards away from the Ohio River to collaborate on how to stop the company from storing the anxiety-inducing chemical.

VILLA HILLS – Imagine, Dave Zimmer said to his neighbors, if they couldn’t smell fl owers or farts. The group of eight groaned. The lost sense is just one symptom of inhaling styrene, a carcinogen and fl ammable chemical that could be stored just steps away from their homes. As they spoke, many kept gesturing where Route 8 along the Ohio River bends to the west, toward a large storage facility, TransMontaigne, enclosed by a chain-linked fence. The facility and nearby homes share a view of the river and glimpses of Cincinnati. The Colorado-based company has plans to store styrene in one of the tall white towers, according to records from the Planning and Development Services of Kenton County obtained through a Kentucky Open Records Act request. But, it needs approval from the Villa Hills Board of Adjustments, which has the power to allow anyone to use land for purposes that would otherwise violate the zoning code. Right now, the company stores liquids such as biodiesel at the facility. Styrene can be fatal if it’s inhaled. It can damage organs, infl ame lungs and make it hard to breathe, according to the company’s permit application.

Signs, petitions and meetings Trans Montaigne Terminal has residents in Villa Hills, Ky., worried because the company wants to store the chemical Styrene, which poses deadly risk if it leaks. MICHAEL NYERGES|THE ENQUIRER

Styrene is the same explosive substance that tipped over in a rail car in Cincinnati in August 2005 around the time the world grieved the fallout of Hurricane Katrina. Back then, people in Cincinnati’s

East End sheltered in place and hired attorneys. The companies, Ohio Railway Company and the Westlake Chemical Corporation, paid the city of Cincinnati $400,000 in a settlement and $2 million to families.

Concern is spreading beyond Villa Hills, home to 7,448 people, in the far west side of Kenton County. In the bordering city of Bromley, just a mile away from the Smith’s home, yard signs are spread around that read “stop the styrene storage plant.” Neighbors told The Enquirer they alerted other Northern Kentucky cities as well, including LudSee STYRENE, Page 4A

How fate led new Newport superintendent to job Paul Daugherty Columnist Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Teachers are idealists. At least that’s how they start out. They hope to change the world before the world changes them. They spend the shiny new coins of faith and passion to buy a better day. They call it making a diﬀ erence. Tony Watts is 49 and the new superintendent of Newport Independent Schools, a job he has been studying for, for 20 years. Fate has dropped this Black man into a sea of change, at once roiling and expectant. Just more than a month after Watts became Newport’s new school boss, police in Minneapolis ended George Floyd’s life. That tragedy has given the new superintendent a pulpit and a voice he wouldn’t have had otherwise. The irony isn't lost on him. “If (Floyd’s death) hadn’t happened,

He lost all his hair by the age of 13. He celebrated that setback by making his baldness a fashion statement and his headbands iconic. His son’s basketball career ended after fi ve games in the CBA, thanks to a broken wrist. Tony Watts always thought he’d own a restaurant after his playing career ended. He didn’t have a playing career; he did have a wife and a small child, so he went to work in the restaurant business. That lasted four years until someone suggested he try teaching school. Ironic, given Tony “liked school, but not going to class’’ as an undergrad at Mississippi State. He showed up for an interview in Covington and was hired on the spot as a phys. ed. teacher at Sixth District Elementary. “Education found me,’’ he recalled. “My fi rst day of school was the fi rst day of school. Here’s your keys. There’s the gym.’’ See DAUGHERTY, Page 2A

He spent parts of the next 12 years going back to school. He got his teacher’s certifi cate and earned a Master’s degree. In the last two decades, Watts has been the dean of Holmes JuniorSenior High, assistant principal at Conner High, principal at Newport High and an eighth-grade English teacher. When Newport schools called in April, Watts was ready. A shiny resume is no substitute for life experiences. Watts’ credibility was born in a tiny, largely segregated town in central Mississippi in the 1970s and has grown with his experiences as a Black man in America. Two rules guide him: Give everyone the benefi t of the doubt and treat people the way you want to be treated. In an introductory letter to Newport schools, Watts wrote this: As a school district, we will engage our community and have conversations with our students, our education leaders, our business owners and operators, and our elected offi cials. As we challenge ourselves to keep this momentum going, I truly feel we will be able to make a diff erence. What will those conversations sound like, I asked him. “Just being open and honest and willing to listen,’’ said Watts. “We’ve always had conversations. We just haven’t been willing to listen. As a Black man, all I ask for is a chance to be treated as an equal and (given) the benefi t of the doubt. That’s not asking a lot.’’ There’s a diff erence between hearing people and listening to them. It’s measured in the frustrated calls of those whose messages are being ignored or, worse, patronized. You can hear me. Now, start listening. “It starts with me, at the top,’’ said Watts. “We have to realize things are different. We have to be open and honest and willing to listen.’’ From his letter to the Newport school community: More than ever, all of us must work together to overcome discrimination, prejudice and racism in society. I have been encouraged seeing the diff erent races coming together to rally for social justice. That makes me hopeful that maybe we can fi nally experience true change. It is clear more people are speaking out and willing to join in to en-

sure there is truth, justice and equality for all people. The college basketball star who didn’t like going to class could never have dreamed that three decades later he’d be the one standing in the front of the room. Or that a man he’d never met, from a city he’d never visited, would provide him with a distinct voice and a unique moment in time to use it. “George Floyd’s passing created something I never thought I’d see in my lifetime,’’ Tony Watts said. The time for listening is upon him. It's upon all of us. “We are the ones who have to have open minds and believe,’’ Watts said.

low and Covington. The company needs approval, it said in its application, because it already has a contract to provide the styrene storage. “TransMontaigne remains committed to being the good neighbor that we have been for the last 17 years and we look forward to continued collaboration with the community and all regulatory and safety-related entities in the future,” TransMontaigne said in a statement emailed to The Enquirer. Brian Wegener, 60, was the fi rst neighbor who sensed something was changing at the plant. As the plant’s nearest neighbor, he’s used to hearing alarms go off and workers chatting within the fence. When a worker told him that the company planned to store styrene, Wegener felt alarmed. He told his neighbors, sent them articles about the chemical and searched for a lawyer. Ultimately, the Villa Hills Board of Adjustments will decide if the company can store the chemical. The board has the power to give people and companies permission to use land in a way that would otherwise violate the city’s zoning code. The city’s code requires companies to get a permit to store fl ammable chemicals, according to the zoning code. The board was set to discuss TransMontaigne’s application, submitted in March, on July 7. That won’t happen because the company asked the board to delay its application review. The board’s next meeting is August 4 if there’s something for the board to go over. In its statement, TransMontaigne said it “works closely with federal, state and local safety and environmental agencies to ensure that the Terminal business practices conform to all applicable, appropriate and necessary fi re and life safety requirements.”

‘Styrene is just the beginning’ The group of neighbors sipped seltzer waters and went over strategies as a speedboat buzzed by on the Ohio River. “Styrene is just the beginning,” said Zimmer. The company wants to be able to store other fl ammable chemicals beyond styrene, according to their application. It asked for permission to store such chemicals, without naming them, because “fi ling a separate application each time a new product opportunity becomes available is expensive and time-consuming,” the company wrote in its application. Government entities are still gathering information and safety plans related to the company’s request. Jeff Wendt, Fire Chief of the Crescent Springs-Villa Hills Fire Department, sent a list of safety precautions the company needed to follow. For example, the chief wrote that the company needs to have a refrigeration unit to keep the chemical away from dangerous temperature levels.

Tanks at the storage facility TransMontaigne in Villa Hills sit across from the Ohio River where the company plans to store the chemical styrene. Styrene is a carcinogen and the company needs special approval from a zoning board to be allowed to store it. GRACE PRITCHETT/THE ENQUIRER

TransMontaigne did not respond to The Enquirer’s questions about what it thought about those requirements. “With the company’s proposed storage ... of styrene monomer at the Terminal, TransMontaigne is fully committed to continued strict application of the best business practices in the bulk storage terminal industry and will follow all applicable ﬁ re safety, emergency management and environmental laws and regulations,” the statement from the company said. Steve Hensley, Director of Kenton County Homeland Security Emergency Management, sent a letter to the company on March 5 asking for more information as well. “In reviewing the attached memo, it appeared to outline the points of discussion which took place during our meeting on Feb 11, 2020 (which was helpful) however it didn’t really address your action plans moving forward,” Hensley wrote. Hensley did not have “any objections” to the company’s plan to store styrene at the facility, but his department did have some concerns, he wrote. The company argued in its application that if they aren’t approved, it could hurt Villa Hills ﬁ nancially -and the company could move its business across the

river. “These types of zoning restrictions put the applicant’s business operations at an economic disadvantage to other industrial bulk storage properties within the greater Cincinnati community, specifi cally on the northern Ohio boundary of the Ohio River that have no such similar zoning restrictions. This would create and place an undue fi nancial hardship on the applicant,” the company wrote in its application. The determined group of neighbors feel they have a battle to win. They’ve hired an attorney and assigned each other local offi cials to call and research to do. “We’re all united... to keep this danger away from our homes,” said Chandler Smith.

Arm-wrestling losses lead to Boone County standoff Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Boone County Sheriff ’s Offi ce says an intoxicated man upset after losing arm-wrestling contests to his juvenile son fi red two shots inside his home and held authorities at bay for nearly eight hours Monday morning. Curtis Zimmerman, 55, surrendered to authorities shortly before 8:30 a.m. at the residence on Clubtrail Drive, just outside Florence, the sheriff ’s offi ce

said in a press release. Deputies dispatched to the residence about 1 a.m. Monday on a report of a person with a weapon determined that two of Zimmerman’s family members had exited safely and were unharmed. Zimmerman, who was the only one who remained inside the home, refused for hours to obey commands to exit the residence as members of the Boone County Sheriﬀ ’s Hostage Negotiation Team, the Boone County Sheriﬀ ’s SWAT Team and the Florence Police Depart-

ment’s SWAT Team converged on the residence. “Deputies learned that Zimmerman was intoxicated and challenged his juvenile son to an arm-wrestling contest. When Zimmerman lost multiple times, he became agitated, which led to a physical altercation with his son,” the release said. “Zimmerman grabbed a ﬁ rearm and as his son was going upstairs, Zimmerman ﬁ red two shots inside of the house.”

The release said Zimmerman told authorities that he ﬁ red the shots into the ceiling. After Zimmerman surrendered, he was taken to St. Elizabeth Florence Hospital to be evaluated. Once he is medically cleared, Zimmerman will be placed under arrest on a felony charge of wanton endangerment and booked in the Boone County Detention Center on a $5,000 cash bond, the release said.

Feds: Florence man sentenced, admits to ecstasy conspiracy Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Florence man was sentenced to over four years in prison June 30 after oﬃ cials said he admitted to conspiring to distribute more than 600 grams of ecstasy. Richard Gearhart, 39, was indicted in November 2019 after U.S. Homeland Security and the Postal Inspection Service seized seven packages of MDMA, or ecstasy, sent to Gearhart through the mail from various overseas locations, according to a release from the Department of Justice. During a search of Gearhart's residence, agents seized approximately 100

grams of the drug, two ﬁ rearms and drug paraphernalia. The release states Gearhart was a convicted felon at the time. Gearhart Gearhart admitted to conspiring with others to distribute over 600 grams of MDMA, or ecstasy, between August 2014 and July 2019, the release states. Gearhart pleaded guilty to the conspiracy in March and was sentenced to 50 months in prison on June 30, the release states. Gearhart must serve at least 85% of the sentence and will be on probation for four years following his release.

Sheriff: Burlington man arrested on sodomy charges Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Burlington man was arrested Friday after exposing himself to a child, offi cials said. Vicente Velazquez, 20, was confronted by the child's mother on July 1 after Velazquez was found with the child on his lap, according to a release from the Boone County Sheriff 's Offi ce. The release states Velazquez admitted to a family member that he had sodomized the child. He then told detectives that he exposed himself to the child "but stopped short" of sodomizing

the child because he said it was a "bad idea." The child, who is under 12 years old, corroborated the sodomy allegation in a separate interVelazquez view with detectives, the release states. Investigators believe this was an isolated incident. The Boone County Sheriﬀ 's Department has no other information at this time regarding other possible victims. Velazquez was arrested and charged with one count of sodomy, the release states. He is currently being held in the Boone County Detention Center on a $100,000 bond.

SCHOOL NEWS First-year principal and the challenges of COVID-19 By Emma Krebs, Sophomore at Newport Central Catholic High School Principal Katie Boruske of Saint Therese School knew that her fi rst year as principal was going to be diffi cult. She had a lot of things in mind, such as aligning the curriculum, striving to become a Blue Ribbon School, and making improvements to the building. What she is most proud of though is St. Therese’s growing number of students. She says, “Our enrollment has gone up. Particularly our kindergarten class. Just this past year, our kindergarten class has gone up by 60%. We also have the new preschool opening in 2020 that I’m proud of.” Although, she never knew that her fi rst year of being the headmaster was going to be cut short. Ms. Boruske had a lot of things thrown at her, like every principal, that she couldn’t have ever imagined having to deal with. She never expected the school to actually shut down, much less be shut down for the rest of the school year. She makes a point to say that for her, the hardest part was missing the kids. She wanted to experience all her “Principal Firsts” with them, such as graduation, presenting an eighth grader the Lisa Costigan Award, First Communion, and Game Day. Due to Coronavirus restrictions, St. Therese will be looking diff erent come fall. Boruske says, “Our biggest goal is to have all the classrooms ready so the desks are six feet apart, hoping that will keep the kids from wearing masks all day. That’s the one thing that the parents are most concerned about. We’re trying our hardest to get the social distance in not only the classrooms, but the cafeteria as well, so the kids can still have lunch together safely.” Boruske says that she thinks the students will respond to these changes well because she knows that the kids would love to be back in the building and follow their routines again. She is positive they won’t mind keeping the six feet rule. She says that not only will the kids have to embrace it, but also the teach-

ers. “Teachers will show their genuine excitement for the kids being back at school, and the kids will catch onto that and be ﬁ ne.” Principal Boruske is proud of how affordable her school is for families interested in a private school education. St. Therese is the only school in the Diocese of Covington that charges $2,100 per family. Whether the family has one child or ﬁ ve children attending the school, it all costs the same amount.

Plus, they have tuition assistance that has been helpful for some families. Even though the virus is postponing many things, St. Therese’s new preschool will not be one of them. She states that they are only taking ten kids due to safety regulations regarding COVID-19, but the preschool is a deﬁ nite go. Boruske explains that “We only have nine students right now, so we’re taking one more student, and then we’ll close it.”

Ms. Boruske had a challenging ﬁ rst year as principal, but that won’t stop her from making sure that St. Therese has had a positive impact on every child whot attends the school. She is ready to start year two of her principalship, and Ms. Boruske is ready for the challenge. Emma Krebs, Sophomore at Newport Central Catholic High School

Mary’s cherry bounce Mary used rock crystal candy. Sugar works, too. Cherries are usually left unpitted. A reader told me last year she pitted the berries.“Easier to eat and use,” she said. So do what you like. This year, I’ll make 2 batches: 1 with unpitted cherries and 1 with pit-ted. I’ll let you know if I ﬁ nd a difference in taste. Ingredients 1 pound fresh dark cherries stemmed, unpitted or pitted Enough rock candy (on stick or string) to make 12 oz.. or more, to taste or 1-1/2 to 2 cups granulated sugar 1 bottle bourbon whiskey, 750 ml Instructions Put cherries in glass jar. Pour sugar and whiskey over. Put lid on. Shake daily until sugar dissolves. Let infuse 3-6 months. Remove sticks or strings from rock candy. Store in pantry. Great as a holiday cordial or as a topping for ice cream or cake. Write on label that cherries have pits if applicable, and note that the pits are not edible. How much to drink? A couple of spoons as a medicinal, or in a cordial glass as a liqueur. Tip: can’t ﬁ nd fresh dark cherries? Use frozen, thawed cherries.

Cherry bounce. RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER

Cherry bounce with sour pie cherries

Cherry bounce is ‘good for what ails you’ Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

Our neighbor, Joan, told me she has wild cherry ﬁ rewood for us from a tree she had cut down. We’ll sure enjoy the fragrant ﬁ res this winter. When we were kids, there was a huge wild black cherry tree in our postage stamp size of a yard. Every summer the tree produced shiny, black, tiny berries. We’d feast, spitting out inedible pits. It got me thinking about using wild cherries for cherry bounce, an old fashioned liqueur trending now.

There’s several trees around here. The problem is they’d have to be seeded to make bounce, and that’s not only a real chore, but I can’t imagine how many tiny berries I’d have to pick to make a pound of pulp. Anyway, for now I’ll go with domestic cherries in season. As always, with heirloom recipes, there’s a story worth sharing. My recipe is from dear friend and Kentucky reader, Ann Rudloff ’s mother Mary, who’s probably making batches of bounce in heaven. “Good for what ails you, especially in winter,” Mary told me. Cherry bounce is multi-purpose – a good medicinal since cherries are anti-infl ammatory. Also a lovely cordial, or topping for ice cream and cake. Maybe you’d like to make cherry bounce, too. Just don’t imbibe too much at once – you may fi nd yourself “bouncing” around!

Use fresh, frozen, or canned packed in water, drained. I’ve not made it yet, but plan on making it soon. Ingredients 2 cups bourbon whiskey 4 cups tart pie cherries, pitted or not 1-1/2 cups sugar or 12 oz. rock crystal candy Instructions Place cherries and sugar in a jar. Stir to mix. Pour bourbon over. Seal and place in dark, warm place. Stir daily un-til sugar dissolves. Let infuse 3 months or more. Store in pantry. Adapted slightly from boulderlocavore.com/Toni Dash.

SPORTS More local high school stars now Division I athletes after Bellarmine moves up James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The 2020 racing season opener at Florence Speedway, July 2, in Walton, Ky. JAMES WEBER/THE ENQUIRER

‘It’s about survival’ Florence Speedway looks ahead after opening season James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Josh King was busier than normal on July 3. And he considers that a good thing. King was busy getting his Florence Speedway facility ready for a night of racing on Saturday night, July 4, followed by ﬁ reworks. He only had one day to do that after the track, which has cars racing on a dirt track, opened its 2020 season on Thursday night. “Today is all about track prep and restocking, getting it prepared for tomorrow,” King said Friday. “Getting concessions cleaned, getting everything else

cleaned. Normally you have a full week to do this.” King and his family have owned the track, which is on U.S. 42 in Walton, since 1984. The family had been ﬁ ghting Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear in court since June 1. Kentucky's Healthy at Work regulations, which became eﬀ ective June 1 for auto race tracks restricted attendance at races to only authorized personnel meaning people who work at the track, are drivers or a car's mechanical crew. The King family won an emergency injunction on July 1 in Boone County Circuit Court and immediately opened to fans Thursday for a limited night of rac-

ing in two divisions. The Kings have been part of a lawsuit with three other Northern Kentucky businesses, with attorney Chris Wiest ﬁ ling in Boone County Circuit Court. The speedway agreed to limit seating to 33 percent of capacity in the outdoor grandstands. Lawrenceburg Speedway in Indiana opened June 20 at 50 percent capacity. Florence Speedway referenced the Florence Y’alls baseball franchise, who will be allowed to play in front of 50 percent capacity when they start their season July 31. See SPEEDWAY, Page 2B

Florence Y’alls to play ball beginning July 31 Team will play The Battle of the Bourbon Trail all summer vs. Lexington Legends James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Following the cancellation of the Minor League Baseball season, the Florence Y’alls independent baseball franchise found a way to have a season this summer. The Florence Y’alls and Lexington Legends have announced The Battle of the Bourbon Trail, a newly formed venture to take the ﬁ eld this summer. Both cities will form two teams that will play in front of fans every Wednesday through Sunday starting in Florence on July 31. The Legends are the Class A aﬃ liate of the Kansas City Royals. They play in Whitaker Bank Ballpark near downtown Lexington, which is the annual site of the KHSAA state baseball championships. The Y’alls have been looking for new

opportunities to play baseball after the Frontier League oﬃ cially canceled its season last week. This venture will begin on July 31 and run for seven weeks. “We are thrilled for this new partnership and venture.” said Legends President and CEO Andy Shea, “We know that baseball at Whitaker Bank Ballpark has been greatly missed and partnering with David DelBello and the Florence Y’alls will bring that energy back to the ballpark.” Each organization will ﬁ eld two teams. Florence will host the Y’alls and the return of the Freedom. Lexington will host the Legends and their second identity, Las Leyendas. The four teams will play a 38-game schedule, lasting through September 13. At least one of the Florence teams will be at home for 32 game dates. Every Wednesday will have a doubleheader. When the two Florence teams aren’t playing each other at UC Health Stadium, one of them will be playing in Lexington. “This is our chance to bring baseball

back to the Tristate.” said Y’alls President and CEO, David DelBello, “We have been waiting for this chance and can’t wait to welcome fans into our stadium at the end of July.” These teams are serving as a platform for players looking to start or continue their baseball careers with no other outlets. The four teams will consist primarily of former Major League baseball players, former and current minor league players and independent league players. Tryouts for The Battle of the Bourbon Trail are open to all. They will take place at UC Health Stadium on July 20 and at Whitaker Bank Ballpark on July 22. Details regarding tryouts will be available on Florence Y’alls website. Season tickets for the Florence Y’alls are on sale now. The Y’alls are signifi cantly lowering ticket prices for this season. All season tickets are only $250, which are the lowest they have ever been. Visit fl orenceyalls.com or call the box offi ce at 859-594-4487. Information regarding individual tickets will be released next week.

Players from the Florence Freedom acknowledge the flag of the United States of America as the National Anthem is played prior to game 5 of the Frontier League Championship at UC Health Stadium in Florence, KY, September 16, 2019. Since the Minor League Baseball season has been cancelled this year, the Florence Y’alls independent baseball franchise has announced it will play the Lexington Legends in The Battle of the Bourbon Trail, a newly formed venture to take the ﬁ eld this summer.

Bellarmine University’s offi cial move up from NCAA Division II to Division I aff ects more than two dozen Greater Cincinnati high school products who will now play in a higher level of competition. Bellarmine, as of July 1, is now the only private D-I university Kentucky and one of only a handful of D-I Catholic universities in the South. All 22 of the Knights' varsity sports programs will now compete in Division I, including 17 in the Atlantic Sun Conference. "This is an exciting and historic time to be a Bellarmine Knight," Bellarmine President Dr. Susan M. Donovan said. "Our move to Division I will elevate our game as we compete against the best rivals in college sports. At the same time, the increased visibility of Division I will allow us to share the Bellarmine story with a larger audience and off er an excellent Bellarmine education to more students than ever before." Northern Kentucky University fans may remember the ASUN was the landing point for the Norse during their move to Division I for the 201213 school year. The league has changed some members since then. Current members are Florida Gulf Coast University, Jacksonville University, Kennesaw State University, Liberty University, Lipscomb University, University of North Alabama, University of North Florida and Stetson University. The addition of Bellarmine University will bring the ASUN membership up to nine institutions for the 2020-21 academic year. Bellarmine teams in the following 17 sports will compete in the ASUN, beginning in the 2020-21 academic year: baseball, men's and women's basketball, men's and women's cross country, men's and women's golf, men's and women's soccer, softball, men's and women's tennis, men's and women's indoor and outdoor track and fi eld and volleyball. Additionally: Men's lacrosse, which has been a D-I program since 2005, will continue as a member of the Southern Conference. Men's and women's swimming and diving will participate in the Coastal Collegiate Sports Association. Field hockey will join the Mid-American Conference beginning in 2021-22, and wrestling is to be determined. Here is a look at local athletes on Bellarmine teams. All grades are what they will be during the 2020-21 school year. Men’s basketball Bellarmine has been a traditionally strong Division II program, going 20-8 last season. CJ Fleming, a senior from La Salle, was fourth on the team in scoring at 9.6 points per game, with a seasonhigh 21 points on Feb. 29. He made 54 3-pointers last year and has 128 for his career, with 124 assists. Alec Pfriem, a sophomore from Moeller, appeared in 14 games, averaging 3.6 points and 1.6 rebounds, including a career high 16 points Jan. 25. He was part of two Moeller state champion teams, earning second team all-state honors as a senior. He was Academic All-GLVC with a 4.0 GPA. Bash Wieland, a sophomore from Lakota East, appeared in nine games last season and was Academic AllGLVC. He was Greater Miami Conference player of the year as a senior. Nick Thelen, a sophomore from Covington Catholic, played in nine games last year. See BELLARMINE, Page 2B

We’ve lost three and a half months from our prime, and to be able to open now is about survival.” On a typical Saturday night, Florence Speedway can have at least 150 drivers competing in fi ve divisions. The speedway has three full-time year-round employees and 20 to 50 workers who assist on race day, some are volunteers. The track has marked off rows of its bleachers to enforce social-distancing. “We added some extra staff for cleaning,” King said. “Security, making sure people are following the rules, We weren’t sure what we would get with

pushback. All of it went really well. Once we explained things to people, it went really well.” While the legal situation is ﬂ uid, King hopes to keep the season going through Oct. 24 and add events to the existing schedule. Fan Appreciation Night has been moved to August 29, and the North/South 100, which brings drivers from around the country, is still on August 15. “Our business model is the dirt racing,” he said. “It’s similar to NASCAR. They’re going in three-wide, sideways, throwing dirt. Overall it’s a night out for family and friends, looking for a night of entertainment. We have a little of something for everybody.”

COMMUNITY NEWS The Kentucky Symphony Orchestra safely navigates the Summer of 2020 with distanced performances in the park At a unique time in history, the Kentucky Symphony Orchestra cautiously moves outdoors with its 26th free summer series, this year, at the beautiful amphitheater at Tower Park in Fort Thomas, KY. The KSO’s last performance was March 12, after which four scheduled programs and events were canceled due to the pandemic. The KSO looked forward to the Summer, where the ability to physically distance on the lawn and on-stage (with smaller resources), during sunny, warm weather off ered opportunities for all. Providing varying degrees of PPE for volunteers, staff and attendees, together with individual personal responsibility, the KSO and the City of Fort Thomas saw the summer series as a guarded way for musicians to return to work, while providing a safe semblance of tradition and normalcy for residents, as we collectively fi nd our way forward. In compliance with Kentucky’s June 29, 2020 Healthy at Work Requirements, the KSO and City of Fort Thomas have taken extra measures to ensure the safety and well-being of its musicians, staff , volunteers and audience members. KSO General Manager, Angela Williamson, is coordinating directly with the City of Fort Thomas Recreation Dept. to meet current public health guidelines. For those considered to be at risk (health/age), or are sick/exposed can watch on Facebook Live. Seniors are also invited to attend the morning dress rehearsals in the park. Those planning to attend the performance are strongly urged to register on-line, observe distance postings and instructions, don masks as you share close proximity with others and pack your hand sanitizer. The KSO and its guest artists will handle the music, nostalgia and quality entertainment. For 25 Summers the KSO performed at the WPAbuilt bandshell in Devou Park. With COVID-19 projections and guidelines evolving and uncertain, Covington city offi cials thought it best not to host the series at Devou Park this Summer. The KSO, in its eff orts to safely employ its talented musicians, turned to Fort Thomas, which after deliberation, agreed to permit these three safe, distanced activities for its residents. KSO 2020 Summer Series at Tower Park Swingin’ Cirque Revue (KSO meets Circus Mojo) 7:30 p.m. Saturday, July 11, 2020 The KSO and Ludlow’s Circus Mojo fi rst teamed-up in 2010 to bring high- wire acts, jugglers and hi-jinx to the Symphony. Ten year’s later they are back together with the orchestra’s 10-pc. swing group (The DevouDoo Daddies), performing the high-energy 1990s swing revival music of The Squirrel Nut Zippers, Royal Crown Revue and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and more. “Hey Pachuco” — What other symphony would combine zany high-fl ying acts with Swing? “The Band Played On” (An Old-Fashioned Band Concert) 7:30 p.m. Saturday, August 8, 2020 100 years ago towns used to gather in the Summer to hear their own local or national touring concert band perform at the bandshell or gazebo. Most wind, brass and percussion players of today’s symphony orchestras started their careers via middle and high-school band programs, playing the warhorse works penned in the early to mid 20th century. Current band students and teachers are invited to experience their musical heritage. The KSO’s wind ensemble re-creates this nostalgic setting and sound, with cornet soloist Michael Mergen from the President’s Own Marine Corps Band. Pop-pourri (Pop hits for Boomers to Centennials) 7:30 p.m. Saturday, September 5, 2020 The KSO’s 21-pc. studio orchestra with vocalists — The Boogie Band — has covered some of the most popular radio hits of the past seven decades. With 300 charts in its repertoire (adapted by arranger Terry LaBolt), the group this Labor Day weekend off ers nostalgic hits for all generations attending, including chart toppers from Patsy Cline to Camila Cabello and The Beach Boys to Bruno Mars. Be ready to dance, sing along and toe-tap to music of your youth (1950s-2010s), and say — so long to Summer. The circumstances of the last few months have made us all understand how simple gatherings and traditions, like sharing a nostalgic and cultural moment together, are quite fragile and can be lost to signifi cant threats and fears. We hope that those who can attend will take precautions to protect your families and citizens, as well as the right to assemble at a distance.

NKY History Hour explores Revolutionary War patriots of Kenton County For many local residents, a drive through Kenton County is a trip through family history, with area roads bearing the names of ancestors who played important roles in Northern Kentucky history. Two of these are William Stephens, and John Metcalf, both recognized as Revolutionary War patriots by the Daughters of the American Revolution. William Stephens, who received 2000 acres of land on what is now Stephens Road for his war service, was honored in a ceremony at the Independence, KY courthouse. John Metcalf came to Kentucky on a raft, accompanied by Simon Kenton. One of his sons, Thomas Metcalf, became the tenth governor of Kentucky. NKY History Hour is a weekly oﬀ ering of BehringerCrawford Museum focused on Northern Kentucky history, featuring local authors, historians and archaeologists. On July 15, Mark Ramler, founding partner, Mansion Hill Properties, will discuss the history of Camp Springs, KY, an agricultural community with a unique architectural character.

Behringer-Crawford Museum to reopen July 11 COVINGTON, KY – Behringer-Crawford Museum (BCM) plans to reopen to the public on Saturday, July 11, after a four-month hiatus due to the coronavirus outbreak. Temporary hours for the museum will be 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and 1 to 3:30 p.m. Sunday. The museum is closed on Mondays. Curator’ Corner, the museum store will be open during regular museum hours, and NaturePlay@BCM, the museum’s outdoor playspace, will be accessible to visitors as well. “We can’t wait to welcome our members and guests back,“ Laurie Risch, BCM executive director said. “Without them, we are just a big building fi lled with artifacts. With them here, BCM becomes a living entity which celebrates the people and events which formed Northern Kentucky’s vibrant history.” BCM located in Devou Park, closed March 14. In the interim, the building has undergone a deep-cleaning and sanitization, and multiple steps in coordination with CDC guidelines have been taken to ensure the well-being of the museum’s guests, employees and volunteers, according to Risch. These include the installation of hand-sanitizing stations throughout the museum and fl oor stickers to guide social distancing. When the museum reopens, all staff and volunteers, as well as guests, will be required to wear face coverings, and complementary masks will be provided to guests who need them. Child-size “grocery carts” will be available for families to carry toys through the museum and return after their visits for recleaning. The museum’s popular exhibit, “From Rituals to Runways: The Art of the Bead,” featuring costumes worn by the pop icon Cher, which was cut short by the epidemic, has been held over until the end of the summer. Two of BCM’s annual signature events will continue, although in slightly diff erent formats. The Music@BCM weekly summer concert series comes back later this month with three online concerts featuring Pat Kelly on July 9, Nicole Zuraitis on July 16, and Jake Speed on July 23. Three live concerts will take place at the museum: Magnolia Vale on July 30, Dark Moll on August 6 and Ben Levin & The Heaters on August 13. Complete details on the concert series will be posted on the museum’s website, www.bcmuseum.org. freshART, the museum’s annual auction of freshlycreated works by local artists, will take place on Saturday, Sept. 12, in hybrid form. Guests will have a choice of enjoying the event at the museum or at home, with a light box supper and the theme “a French picnic in the park.” All guests, regardless of location, will bid electronically. The silentART auction will begin, also online, on Saturday, Aug. 13, and will culminate on Sept. 12. “While our doors were closed, we continued to provide programming for our communities in virtual form – tours of the museum and the bead exhibit, video chats with our curator, weekly online NKY History Hours, Tot Tuesdays! and Chippie’s science labs for kids, even virtual summer camps, “ Risch said. “These have been great learning experiences for our guests and our staff . We will continue to off er them on our website and YouTube after we reopen, and explore new ways to integrate virtual experiences into our programming mix.” Behringer-Crawford Museum is located in Devou Park, 1600 Montague Rd., Covington, KY 41011.

National ‘Cheer Up the Lonely’ Day: July 11 Many people living across America feel lonely. From isolated older adults living alone or in a long-term care facility to stay-at-homes moms to kids and young adults. No one is immune. Surprisingly, in a pre-COVID-19 study, young adults between the ages of 18 and 22 reported the highest loneliness scores, while older adults ranked the least lonely. Loneliness, an intense feeling of being disconnected from others, is associated with numerous negative mental and physical health outcomes including diabetes, heart disease, anxiety, compromised immune system, dementia, and depression. It can play a role in substance use and can negatively aff ect life quality and one’s sense of purpose. Some studies have even reported that loneliness can cause premature death. As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, many people have gone months without interpersonal interaction. National Cheer Up the Lonely Day encourages people to reach out to someone who is lonely and take the necessary steps to combat this epidemic. Connecting with someone can be easy — phone calls, acts of kindness, letters in the mail, taking time for a cup of coff ee or lunch with someone, engaging in meaningful conversation, or just sitting and listening. On National Cheer up the Lonely Day, it really is the eff ort that counts. Consider making the eff ort a week-long one to help spread joy and combat loneliness. Mow it Monday – take care of someone’s lawn or garden if they are unable or need an extra hand. Raking leaves, pulling weeds, or water fl owers count, too. Take and Bake Tuesday – provide a meal or baked good for someone. Even if you don’t make it yourself you can purchase something to share. World Up Wednesday – write a note, send a card, or post an encouraging message to someone in a care facility or confi ned to home. Transform Thursday – get creative with sidewalk chalk, enhance the entrance to your home or someone else’s home, decorate a window or door, or create something to uplift the spirits of everyone who sees your creation. Feel Good Friday – take some time to refl ect or write down all that has made you smile or feel good this week.

Self-Care Saturday – do something for yourself today. Take a few minutes to report what you see others doing or what you are doing to spread joy with #OperationKYSunshine. Kentucky Cooperative Extension will be looking to see all that is done to spread joy to others. In this time of uncertainty it only takes a little time and eﬀ ort to lift the spirits of another. Educational programs of the Cooperative Extension Service serve all people regardless of economic or social status and will not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnic origin, national origin, creed, religion, political belief, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expressions, pregnancy, marital status, genetic information, age, veteran status, or physical or mental disability.

Ohio Valley Goodwill announces new veterans grant

Opening of the Erlanger Historical Museum

Ohio Valley Goodwill Industries is pleased to announce that it has received word from the U.S. Department of Labor that the organization has been awarded a federal grant in support of its Homeless Veterans’ Reintegration Program (HVRP). The $472,000 grant will be used to provide job training and support for homeless veterans. This new grant will begin July 1, 2020 and continue until June 30, 2021. The federal grant will allow the organization to serve 260 veterans in the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky areas during the one year grant period. Annually, Goodwill assists an average of 600 veterans with a variety of support services, including education and job training, counseling, job placement, as well as case management assistance. In the Greater Cincinnati area, Ohio Valley Goodwill has helped thousands of veterans, build their civilian careers. Locally, in 2019, Ohio Valley Goodwill served almost 600 veterans. Since the early 1990s, the organization has helped more than 10,000 veterans to receive assistance with transitional and permanent housing, skill training, job placement assistance as well as case management support. “We are very proud of the quality services that we have been providing for the past thirty years for the hundreds of men and women that we have served at Ohio Valley Goodwill Industries,” said Charlie Blythe, Goodwill’s Grants Director. “This new grant will enable us to provide even greater services to more people.” “As we near the celebration of the 4th of July holiday and the anniversary of our nation’s independence, it is ﬁ tting that we also honor and recognize all that our veterans do to keep our country safe and free,” said Joseph Byrum, President and CEO of Ohio Valley Goodwill Industries.
