Jeff Bezos group gives millions to regional homeless shelters Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Jeff Bezos made a new investment in Northern Kentucky and the Greater Cincinnati region. His foundation, The Bezos Day One Fund, gave $1.25 million each to homeless organizations in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. Bethany House Services in Cincinnati and Welcome House in Covington will use the money to improve and expand their services for people experiencing homelessness, according to a release from Welcome House. Welcome House Executive Director Danielle Amrine,40, got the news Wednesday, Nov. 20 when Jeff Bezos emailed her, she said. Bezos launched The Bezos Day One Fund in 2018 to fund existing non-profi ts that help homeless families. The regional shelters were part of 32 nonprofi ts across the U.S. to receive the grant. Amazon’s presence in the region is growing. In May, the company broke ground on its $1.5 billion Prime Air hub at the Northern Kentucky/Cincinnati International Airport (CVG). The new cargo hub is expected to open in 2021 and create more than 2,000 new jobs. “It’s like Christmas came early,” she said. Amrine started working for Wel-

come House in 2017. Bethany’s House shared the news on its Facebook page. Welcome House will use the onetime grant to expand its staff and provide services to more people. For example, the organization will be able to get more people in its Rapid Re-Housing Program, which provides rental assistance for families. Welcome House is one of four homeless shelters in Northern Kentucky. In 2019, about 300 people in the counties of Boone, Kenton and Camp-
Boone County Schools uses third-party software resiliency poll to screen for violence Chris Mayhew
Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Boone County Schools, where there were recently four threats of students talking about shooting people to police, has asked parents to talk to their children about what a school threat is right away. For Kentucky’s third-largest public school district that serves 21,000 students, part of the response to how the district is dealing with school threats was to off er an interview about how the district continues to be “proactive” about the issue. There has been a spike in Boone County school shooting threats reported to police in just a week’s time. School offi cials will not discuss specifi cs about the school shooting threats reported to police, said Barbara CainBrady, schools/community relations coordinator. “My perception of the mood is that all of our levels of concern have risen,” said Kathy Reutman, executive director of student and community services. Parents have “rightly so,” been expressing concerns, she said. They need to look at the threat assessment defi nition on the district website, Reutman said. “Also, we are encouraged that chil-

dren are reporting,” she said. “If students hear something, see something, they need to say something.” Part of how the district has been proactive has been the use of the Terrace Metrics third-party software “resiliency poll” for students in grades 3-12 since 2016. Students are in the midst of taking the annual poll on computers now, Reutman said. Other schools in the region, including Campbell County schools, use the Terrance Metrics poll. The poll is one tool used by a district mental health task force, Reutman said. Each school implements its own version of positive expectations, respect, responsibility and safety framework as part of an array of mental health endeavors that go beyond the Terrace Metrics test. The district reviews the answers 24 hours after a student takes the test, Reutman said. Parents don’t automatically receive a copy of the results. They have to ask the district for a copy. When students’ answers indicate they do have a tendency toward school violence or violence, staff have to answer a tiered set of questions, Reutman said. If there is an imminent threat, 911 is called or the school resource offi cer is notifi ed. If there is no immediate threat, parSee POLL, Page 2A

bell were counted in the Northern Kentucky homeless population according to the Kentucky Housing Corporation. Each year, the quasi-government agency organization counts how many people are experiencing homelessness in a 24-hour period at the end of January. Amrine added they want to expand their street outreach work as well to bring services to people on the streets. Welcome House applied for the grant in October. Amrine said they found out they were fi nalists two weeks ago.
They’ll submit a progress report to the The Bezos Day One Fund six months after getting the funds. In October, The Enquirer reported the city of Covington, where Welcome House is located, was drafting a bill to set stricter regulations on shelters. “The bottom line is more people in our community right here are going to have a chance at a better life,” Amrine said.

One of the options is to engage an outside counseling agency or have a parent show how counseling services are being engaged privately, she said. The resiliency poll probes students with questions about a wide range of topics, including a social ostracism scale to measure whether a student is ostracized, ignored or chooses to not interact with others, according to a letter to parents on the district website.

victed on the two felony charges. He is additionally listed on the Boone County Detention Center website as a federal prisoner being held in transit. The woman woke to fi nd a male lying next to her in bed with his hand on her genital area above her clothing, according to the arrest report. He then tried to hide on the fl oor next to her bed. She yelled at him to get out of her bedroom. He then tried to hide in the corner of the room before fl eeing, according to the arrest citation. The woman told police the male had no permission to be in the apartment. She thought he gained access through a door that was unable to be locked, but that was shut when she went to sleep, according to the report. She said she did not know the man, but that a man matching his description was staying in a neighboring apartment.
letter allows parents to opt their child out of the testing if they desire. Other resiliency poll topics include a school victimization scale. Students are fi rst given a defi nition of bullying. Students are then asked if they have been victimized or have victimized others in the current school year. Other areas include questions about a student’s level of grit and tenacity, anxiety, hope, leadership, expectations about their academic standards and life satisfaction. This is a time for parents to talk to their children about school threats, Reutman said. “What we encourage our parents to do is talk to their children immediately,” she said.

Wrangling students prepped Kim Banta for politics These locals had Banta as their school principal Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Apparently, chickens can jump up a fl ight of stairs. Kimberly Banta learned that the hard way when she had to round up 12 loose chickens in the halls of Dixie Heights High School. The student responsible is one of many local leaders who had the newly elected Republican state representative as a principalwhen they were students. No matter whether they were honor
students or pranksters, Banta’s students helped prepare her to govern, she said. Earlier this month Banta won a special election for the 63rd House District with 63% of the vote. The district includes parts of Boone and Kenton Counties. Before she stepped into the world of politics, she was a principal in Northern Kentucky in the early 2000s. On Friday, she offi cially joined the Kentucky General Assembly at her inauguration. “She was always really respectful,” said Ashley Stewart, who drove the chickens to the school for the senior prank. He earned his General Educational Development, or GED, in 2002. Now, he co-runs Colonel De Gourmet Herbs &

Spices at Findlay Market in Cincinnati. Stewart, by his own admittance, wasn’t the best student. He got into arguments on the school bus and faked his report cards. But, Banta was always respectful when he was 16 and getting into trouble and that mattered to him, Stewart said. “She’ll be respectful to the people around her,” Stewart said, which should help her govern, he added. Banta had never run a campaign before and wanted advice. So, she went to one of her former students for advice. The student became the teacher when Erlanger Mayor Jessica Fette told Banta to knock on doors and get to know her constituents. “I’ve always said the best thing about being a principal is seeing the future leaders,” Banta said. Now, she sees them in action and learns from them as well. Fette graduated from Dixie Heights in 2003 after running track and starting a chapter of the Future Educators of America club, among other extracurricular activities. “Once I knew she was the candidate I reached out to show her my support,” Fette said. She was elected as mayor in 2018 after serving on city council since 2016. Fette is not in Banta’s district but she said she would’ve voted for Banta if she could have. Fette, who was never sent to the principal’s offi ce, was glad to rekindle the relationship with her former principal. The history between the two gives Fette another state representative to reach out to about pressing local issues like infrastructure and rising pension costs for local governments. “She seemed very willing to talk to me about the issues,” Fette said.

They collected staple items (such as cereal), comfort toys (such as stuff ed animals to hold), engaging family games, and your basic snack stock. Jim Acton, with the Ronald McDonald House, visited the kindergartners to fi rst thank them for their generous donation and to educate them on what the home provides. The home works with families all over the world bringing hope, support, joy and a sense of normalcy during this trying season. Besides helping fi nancially and emotionally by lifting or sharing the burden, they are making connections amongst other family members and they can relate as their children face the healing process together. Mr. Acton engaged the students by calling up a few to spin the Ronald McDonald House Wheel. When it landed on a patient’s name, they read about that individual and then he asked them a question about the Ronald McDonald House. The Ronald McDonald House currently has 78 rooms but they are in the process of expanding to become the largest in the world, being able to house up to 180 families. There is currently a 15 day waiting period to stay at the home but not for long with the expansion on the horizon. Approximately 2,000 visitors a year stay an average of 40 days, so you can imagine the cost. The Ronald McDonald house depends on donations and Florence Elementary was able to extend a caring hand to a child/children and their family. Kathy Kuhn, Florence Elementary

I’ll never forget my fi rst taste of a bourbon ball. I was with my sister, Christine, and we were in her hometown of Ripley, Ohio, visiting antique shops. The proprietor of one particular shop, which was housed in an antebellum home, was a very genteel woman who greeted us with a plate of bourbon balls.

balls made their appearance. It was many years later that I attempted to make them for gifts from the kitchen cooking class. I wound up with two versions, which I’m sharing today. They make unusual gifts from the kitchen. Put them out on a dessert buff et (label so people know what they are) and watch them disappear. Both are very sweet. The fi rst one takes a bit more work and is the classic bourbon ball. The second recipe is easier, technique wise. And for our Kentucky and other readers who make bourbon balls, I’d be interested to know if these are similar to yours.

Area nonprofi ts face fewer contributions, increased demand in helping the poor James Pilcher, Liz Dufour and Josh Goad Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
The nonprofi t sector in Southwest Ohio and Northern Kentucky raises and spends about a half a billion dollars annually in its eff orts to fi ght poverty. An Enquirer analysis, focused on fi nances of 10 of the area’s largest nonprofi ts that deal with poverty, shows there are headwinds against such agencies helping the poor. In short: ❚ Donations are down. The amount of private donations is failing to keep up with infl ation despite the thriving economy. Why? Changes in tax laws, cultural shifts and increased competition for giving dollars. ❚ Costs are up. Private agencies trying to alleviate the impact of poverty and get people on their feet fi nancially are being asked to do more, with spending up signifi cantly this decade on programs ranging from health care to food needs to shelter to job training. “It’s not as simple as 'get a job and get out of poverty,' ” said Tammy Weidinger, president and chief executive offi cer for Brighton Center, one of Northern Kentucky’s largest nonprofi ts that deals with the poor, providing homeless shelters, drug treatment, and job training/ counseling. “The reality is, even for people who are working hard, they still face major barriers.” Those involved in the region’s socialservice nonprofi t sector mostly agree their goal remains elusive – reducing the region’s substantial poverty numbers, which have stayed stubbornly high despite the economic recovery and historically low unemployment rates. About 25% of Cincinnati city residents lived below the poverty line as of 2018, according to U.S. Census estimates. That’s down slightly from previous years but is still the fi fth-worst rate among the nation’s largest cities. And 17% of all children in the entire Cincinnati region lived in poverty in 2017, according to Census estimates. That’s 15th-highest among areas with populations of 2 million or more. Part of the challenge, nonprofi t offi cials say, is that the face of poverty has changed. Yes, homeless people still live on the streets. But increasingly, the agencies surveyed deal with the working poor – people who are working two or three jobs just to stay afl oat, a much larger constituency that means more demand and diff erent services. “Probably 70% of the families we see … are working,” said Kurt Reiber, president and chief executive offi cer of Freestore Foodbank, the area’s largest free food provider. “But when an economic shock hits, whether it’s when a car breaks down, a child gets sick, utility bills are out of sight, they have to make a decision: do I buy food or do I pay my rent?”
Prosperity Disparity ENQUIRER
Even with the expanded demand and shrinking resources, those working for regional nonprofi ts said they're fi lling a key role and that they can't solve the poverty problem by themselves. “It’s a systemic issue,” said Roger Howell, who has run City Gospel Mission, a Christian-oriented homeless shelter and treatment center in Queensgate, since 1992. “When a person in society says, ‘Well, how come we spent a half a billion dollars and how come we didn’t solve poverty?’ Well, we need good jobs for people, we need housing, we need a justice system that is more equitable for everybody. “We have helped a lot of people. We would be a lot worse if we hadn’t done it.”
Demands on nonprofi ts on the rise The Enquirer reviewed the fi nances of 10 of the area’s largest nonprofi ts that deal with issues surrounding poverty, using data provided on their 990 tax returns from 2013 to 2017, the latter being the most recent return available. Nonprofi t experts say the 10 should represent most of the donations and spending geared toward poverty. “In the nonprofi t world … 85% of the money is concentrated in about 4% of the organizations,” said Elizabeth Boris, founding director of the Center on Nonprofi ts and Philanthropy at the Urban Institute. The list of 10 agencies included the nonprofi t hospital chain TriHealth, which accounted for almost half the total revenues and spending of the agencies. The hospital system was included in The Enquirer analysis because it operates a clinic that provides free or reduced-cost medical services to poor patients. The clinic, in East Price Hill, is the largest such operation in the area. Clinic leader Linda Smith Berry said the agency has seen changes in the people it treats as it deals more with the working poor. One customer was fi red after missing too many days at work and "his health care (insurance) was through work, so now he has no health care,” Smith Berry said. “We discover he has cancer and that’s why he’s been feeling bad. “We took care of him and he’s still a patient, but not for long because he’s going back to work. That’s a lot of what we see.” Indeed, other agency offi cials say the nearly half-billion dollars spent on services for the poor help but are nowhere near enough to meet the demand creat-

ed by the changing face of poverty. That includes: ❚ A major increase in the number of working poor. Those in the region’s bottom quarter of the workforce also saw their wages decline by 4 percent between 2007 and 2017, when adjusted for infl ation. ❚ More health problems. Many agencies report that their clients are struggling with chronic health or mental illness issues that can't be treated longterm because they can't get aff ordable care. ❚ A rise in single-parent households, a major indicator of poverty. An estimated 41.3 percent of children lived in such a household in Hamilton County alone in 2017 according to the U.S. Census. That's up from 38.7 percent in 2009, during the Great Recession. One expert said the number of kids in single-parent households in Ohio exceeds 920,000, which could nearly fi ll Ohio State's football stadium 10 times over. “It’s diffi cult to convince a company to put its resources behind such big issues," said Bernice Sanders Smoot, president of Saint Wall Street, a consulting fi rm that helps nonprofi ts with marketing and works with companies on nonprofi t giving. Those changing demographics drove a 13 percent spending increase by these 10 agencies on programming for the poor between 2013-2017 adjusted for infl ation. The nonprofi ts increasingly used government grants to cover the costs, as well as charging clients more for services. “Spending is up because that’s just the nature of the client today – they come to us with more issues and we’re trying to help them,” said Peggy Zink, CEO for Cincinnati Works, the downtown nonprofi t that provides job training and coaching at no charge to participants. Demetrius Scott is an example of the new kind of working-poor client showing up at the doors of area poverty fi ghters. The 20-year-old graduated high school in 2017 and got a job. But he found himself homeless and drifting between the home of several relatives, saying he got into fi ghts with a few of them and eventually got fi red from his job, partly because of his own admitted bad attitude. Scott eventually landed at City Gospel Mission, which put him up for several months, giving him job training and counseling. He now has a full-time job at the UPS facility in Newport, making $14 an hour plus “a lot of overtime.” Scott pays $15 a week to the shelter as do all residents with jobs to “put skin in the game,” said director Howell. In addition, he needs to set aside an additional $100 a week for the day when he can move out, which he plans to do in the next few weeks. “Being independent is being free so you can branch out and do whatever you want with your life,” Scott said. “It is very meaningful that I can come in here and rebuild my life.”

While spending increased, the amount of money raised through private donations remained stagnant, and even fell by 4.5% between 2013-2017 when adjusted for infl ation. Donations make up about half of all revenue for these nonprofi ts. One of the top reasons for the drop in donations was a recent tax change that raised the minimum deduction allowed on personal income tax returns, remov-
ing an incentive to give. The Freestore Foodbank’s Reiber said the tax law cost his agency $1 million in contributions alone, according to an internal analysis. “Last December was a perfect storm when it came to fundraising,” Reiber said. “Between the government shutdown, the decline in the stock market and the tax changes, a lot of nonprofi ts got hurt.” But agency offi cials say there is something deeper at work. Corporate giving is down, particularly to umbrella agencies such as the United Way, as younger workers want to be more connected and involved with where they give, they said. The large businesses that United Way and others relied on also have shrunk in size, meaning another reduction in corporate giving. “There are just not as many motivators to give to a traditional nonprofi t as in the past,” said Holly End, chief fundraiser for the United Way of Greater Cincinnati. “We’re all having to regroup around what the new philanthropist looks like.” Another issue: more competition for nonprofi t dollars. The number of nonprofi ts nationally has almost doubled this decade for all sectors, creating more demand for donation dollars according to the National Council of Nonprofi ts, a major industry group. Overall, nonprofi ts account for more than 10% of the private workforce in the country, the council reported. In a recent survey, 86% of respondents said demands for services were increasing. “At the same time, whatever government grants or programs those nonprofits are relying on may not cover the full costs of the services,” said Rick Cohen, the chief operating offi cer for the council.
Will coordination bring better results? Local nonprofi t offi cials acknowledge the burden of poverty remains high here despite their eff orts. Part of the issue, they say, is the previously mentioned changing face of poverty and increased demand, But the agencies acknowledged that they have only been treating individual symptoms of poverty, whether they be housing, food, health care or job training. So over the last fi ve years, many moved to coordinate more, to refer individuals between agencies and share resources when possible. For example, the Safety Net Alliance of Northern Kentucky started earlier this decade as many smaller nonprofi ts were competing for free food opportunities. This alliance expanded into a fullfl edged operation with monthly meetings and an executive board that routinely discusses how to better coordinate anti-poverty eff orts. At one recent meeting, for example, members discussed emergency planning and communications so those in need could still get help in the case of bad weather. The United Way of Greater Cincinnati, which funds other smaller nonprofi ts working against poverty, last year asked its member agencies to coordinate to attack all the problems of individual families at once, meaning as many as fi ve diff erent nonprofi ts could work with one family at the same time. The United Way’s End said the new “family outcomes” strategy resulted in 2,500 individuals getting a job last year and 1,200 more getting aff ordable housing. The pilot program included 12 agencies working with 1,300 families. She said that nearly 200 families moved above the poverty line as a result. Next year, United Way hopes to expand the concept to include more than 40 agencies. "One year’s results are only a drop in the bucket," End said. "But when we see 200 families completely rise out of poverty from just one little pilot, we’re excited about where this might go. "We're just getting started.”

Beechwood rolls over West Carter in regional fi nal James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Facing a high school football program with a history unlike its own, a young Beechwood team took care of business. Beechwood defeated West Carter, 42-7, in a Kentucky High School Athletic Association (KHSAA) Class 2A regional championship game on Friday night at Beechwood High School. The Tigers (8-5) will play Mayfi eld (12-1) in a 2A state semifi nal Friday, Nov. 29. West Carter fi nished 9-4. Beechwood, a three-time reigning champion in Class 1A, has been chasing its fi rst state title in 2A with a young group, including several freshman and sophomore starters. “We had too many penalties,” said Beechwood head coach Noel Rash. “Our penalties tonight were sophomore-related, but other than that, they’re playing like upperclassmen, and that’s what you’ve got to do. We learned a long time ago that if you have to play young guys, play them early. And they’ve done a great job for us, and they’re in a better situation now because of it.” The visiting Comets were in the third round of the playoff s for the fi rst time in their history, while 14-time state champion Beechwood was playing in a regional fi nal for the 13th straight season. Beechwood prospered behind junior quarterback Cameron Hergott, who rushed for more than 100 yards and two touchdowns, while throwing for nearly 200 yards and two scores, both to sophomore Parker Mason. Sophomore Avery Courtney had a solid game on the ground and scored two TDs. “Our young talent, that’s how we roll,” Hergott said. “We’ve been doing good. I think we’ve matured a lot, so we’ll be good (against Mayfi eld). After this win, our confi dence is boosted a lot, so we’ll be all right.” Hergott said West Carter was having two linebackers spy on him, allowing him to hit open receivers over the middle. Hergott had a pair of big runs on designed QB draws.

“That’s something we’ve seen all year from him,” Rash said. “As special as he played tonight, he is just as good a kid off the fi eld. Your O-line has to go out there and get it done for you. He had plenty of time to make things happen, and when you give him time he makes things happen.” Beechwood outgained West Carter, 196-75, in the fi rst half while taking a 21-0 lead. West Carter had 42 of those yards on its fi rst drive. Beechwood scored on three of its fi rst fi ve drives, including a missed fi eld goal. The Tigers led 7-0 with two minutes to go in the fi rst quarter after Avery Courtney’s fi rst touchdown of the game, from 13 yards out. Courtney had key runs of 12 and eight yards on the drive, and Hergott rushed for 27 yards on a quarterback draw. Beechwood scored on a 32-yard drive following a short punt. After a pair of
Beechwood penalties, Hergott found Mason for a 22-yard gain on fourthand-12. Then Courtney rushed for 11 yards to the 1-yard line to set up a Hergott sneak for the score. Later in the second quarter, Beechwood forced West Carter to punt from its 10-yard line after the Tigers stuff ed the Comets on two tackles for loss by freshman Xavier Campbell and sophomore Michael Hatfi eld. After the punt, Beechwood took over at the Comets' 28. An 11-yard pass from Hergott to sophomore Brady Moore, who made a toe-tapping catch on the sideline, set up Courtney’s second TD of the game. Beechwood made it 28-0 on its fi rst drive of the third quarter. Hergott found receivers wide open on two successive plays, completing a pass of 25 yards to senior Mason Williams, and a long pass to Mason at the goal line
for a 41-yard TD pass. West Carter scored late in the third quarter, and Beechwood bounced right back as Hergott outran the Comets for a 65-yard TD on the last play of the quarter. On West Carter’s next drive, Williams intercepted a ball at midfi eld, Beechwood’s second pick of the game. Hergott connected with Mason for a TD for the second time in the game. “We had to have a bunch of kids step up this year,” Mason said. “We lost about 18 seniors from last year, so we had a lot of open opportunities. We had sophomores step up and play big roles, and we’re playing pretty well.” Moore had an interception in the fi rst half, and junior Cole Stammer made it three picks for the Tigers with 3:47 to go in the contest. The Tigers started 1-4 this season, with three of the losses coming to perennially strong Kentucky programs that are still alive in the playoff s: Paintsville, Somerset and Covington Catholic; plus one of Cincinnati’s top small-school programs in Taft. Beechwood has now won seven of eight games, with a lot of sophomores maturing as the year has gone on and playing big roles. “We knew our schedule would be tough in the beginning,” Mason said. “It always is. But we knew once we got in the districts, it was our time to shine. The brotherhood, the sacrifi ce and community. It’s not just about out here, it’s in the weight room, running.” Said Rash: “I’m proud of our kids and our coaching staff . Our kids play hard all year, and that’s why they have a shot at this thing.”

Covington Catholic rolls Madison Southern Mark D. Motz Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Another week, another win. Covington Catholic High School maintained its perfect record with a dominant, 49-9 Class 5A football playoff win against visiting Madison Southern. “We knew going in they were a very good team, well-coached and some great players,” said Eagles head head coach Jon Clark. “We’ve got to get over the wow factor of playing big games in a big environment.” Senior Daniel Felix wasn’t going to let that happen, leading CovCath with a four-touchdown night. He scored on runs of one, four, 15 and 12 yards. “The guys up front did a good for him, but he runs hard,” said Colonels head coach Eddie Eviston. “You saw that tonight and he got into the end zone a lot.” “It was a lot of fun,” Felix said. “It was a lot of fun and I had a lot of great blocks in front of me. I was excited to play tonight.” And it was exciting to watch, with a leap into the end zone halfway through the fi rst quarter for his fi rst touchdown. Quarterback Caleb Jacob found a diving Michael Mayer for a 19-yard pass to the 1-yard line to put the Colonels in position.
Felix scored again less than three minutes later, this time on a four-yard power run over the right side of the offensive line. Junior Jack Raisbeck set up the two-play, 60-yard scoring drive with an interception, followed by Jacob hitting Ethan Reardon on a 56-yard post route. Jacob threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Andy Molique with 25 seconds left in the fi rst quarter. The Colonels went for two – and converted with Jacob’s pass to Mayer – after the Eagles jumped off side during the kick try. Felix’s third score capped another two-play drive after a short punt by the Eagles; the touchdown gave the Colonels a 29-0 lead with 8:18 left in the half. “That was my favorite,” Felix said. “I really broke a guy, their middle linebacker, just put a good move on him and broke his ankles.” Jacob and Mayer connected for a three-yard touchdown with 3:35 remaining in the half to push the lead to 36-0 and force a running clock. Felix added his fourth score on the opening drive of the second half, running up the middle and breaking right from 12 yards with 6:45 left in the third quarter. CovCath junior Ryan Schneider
picked off a Madison Southern pass on the ensuing drive. Running back Owen Nally completed a three-play drive on a 17-yard run with 4:09 to play in the third quarter. The Eagles fi nally got on the board, blocking a punt through the end zone for a safety with 8:11 left in the game. Tobias Storm added a fi ve-yard quarterback keeper on the drive after the free kick to provide the fi nal margin. “We take everything one week at a time,” Eviston said. “We’ve been preaching that all year. We didn’t expect anything (like a blowout). We just prepared hard all week. If you don’t execute this week, you don’t get a next week. That’s what we’re trying to do.” This was the third playoff meeting between the Colonels and Eagles in the past fi ve seasons; CovCath won the fi rst meeting, 28-7, on the road in 2015 and beat them again, 49-13, for the 2017 state title. Covington Catholic advances to the state semifi nals on Friday, Nov. 29. The Kentucky High School Athletic Association will re-seed the Final Four, but the Colonels will have a home game. “I don’t think there’s any motivation other than to keep playing,” Felix said. “I don’t want to lose another game in my high school career.”

COMMUNITY NEWS Local manufacturing event draws thousands FLORENCE – More than 2,000 manufacturers from across North America converged on local manufacturing company Mazak Corporation for its DISCOVER 2019 event, held Nov. 5-7 and 1213 at the company’s North American Manufacturing Headquarters in Florence, Kentucky. In addition, Mazak hosted over 300 students from the local region for its Student Day on Nov. 15, where it showcased the high-tech industry of modern manufacturing to the next generation of engineers and machinists. A part of the company’s DISCOVER MORE WITH MAZAK series of technology and education events, which take place throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico, DISCOVER 2019 was Mazak’s largest event yet and brought in attendees from across the continent. The students came from eight local schools, including Grant County Area Technology Center, Williamstown High School, Butler Tech, Pendleton County High School, Great Oaks, Ignite Institute, Boone County Area Technology Center and Lloyd High School. As Dan Janka, president of Mazak Corporation, explained, “Our customers have come to rely on the DISCOVER events for keeping up with the latest manufacturing advancements and strategies, which is why Mazak DISCOVER continues to hold the distinction as the industry’s largest privately held manufacturing event in North America. We welcomed manufacturers from as far as Columbia and Costa Rica as well as Hawaii.” At the event, the students and manufacturing professionals had the opportunity to see the latest in industrial technology. These innovations included Mazak’s new HYBRID Multi-Tasking series of machines, which add technologies like 3D metal printing with Hot Wire Deposition (HWD) and using force to join metals with Friction Stir Welding (FSW) to conventional machine tools. Attendees also saw the latest generation of the company’s CNC technology, the MAZATROL SmoothAi CNC. This advanced control uses programs that leverage the power of machine learning and artifi cial intelligence to speed up manufacturing operations. In total, Mazak had over 30 machines under power and cutting parts in its National Technology Center, including many that had been paired with automation solutions such as articulating robots and palletized part loading/unloading systems. The company also showcased some of its latest investments in its Florence manufacturing campus, including a sneak peek at improvements to its Mazak iSMART Factory and a new Spindle Rebuild Facility in the campus’ South Building. “Our theme for the event this year, ‘Discover What We Can Do Together,’” said Janka, “truly expresses our corporate mission; our customers and our community are our partners, and we believe that together, we can achieve more success than any one of us could achieve alone. And given the excitement I’ve seen as students interact with this technology, I feel confi dent we’ll continue achieving that success, together.” Mazak has been a part of the Florence, Kentucky community since 1974, when the Oguchi, Japan-based Yamazaki Mazak Corporation selected the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area for its production facility in the United States. Mazak Corporation is a leader in the design and manufacture of productive machine tool solutions. Committed to being a partner to customers with innovative technology, its world-class facility in Florence, Kentucky produces over 100 models of turning centers, MultiTasking machines and vertical machining centers, including 5-axis models. Continuously investing in manufacturing technology allows the Mazak iSMART Factory to be the most advanced and effi cient in the industry, providing high-quality and reliable products. Mazak maintains eight Technology Centers across North America to provide local

Rotary Club of Florence Celebrates 75th anniversary Written by Patrick Moynahan FLORENCE – In the early days of the Rotary Club of Florence, members raised funds for community projects by selling Florenceopoly board games. When a fellow Rotarian couldn’t pay his bill at the old Drawbridge Inn in Ft. Mitchell because someone broke into his car and stole his belongings and sales merchandise, the Florence Club picked up the tab out of pocket. When the number of worthy high school seniors exceeded the scholarship funding available, selection committee members routinely passed the hat and collected enough to provide another scholarship. “It really got hard to get people to serve on that committee,” Gary Greisser remarked as members erupted in laughter during the 75th anniversary celebration of the Rotary Club of Florence recently. Greisser was among a group who revived a dying club in the 1980s and built it into the second largest club in Rotary District 6740, which includes all the clubs east of Interstate 75 in Kentucky. The club has maintained a membership of 100 members or more for more than a decade. At the anniversary celebration, Greisser and three other former Florence presidents shared memories of struggles and successes in rebuilding a club that dates to Nov. 11, 1944. By the early 1980s, participation had dropped to 30-34 people because many of the original members were reaching their 60s. They mounted a recruitment drive to attract “young blood” - anyone less than 40, said Greisser. Impressed by the Rotary International initiative to eradicate polio worldwide, he came on board and ultimately served three times as president over the next three decades. Mike Crane came aboard after the Airport Rotary Club, which folded because of a lack of membership. Gary Wilmhoff and Dennis McEvoy soon followed. Each served a term or two as president in the 1980s and 1990s, and McEvoy led District 6740 in 2009-10. “The goal was to build a base for a strong club,” said Greisser, “and I think that happened.” The Rotary Club of Florence now awards seven college scholarships each year, thanks to proceeds from a popular fall golf tournament. The club sponsors a teacher recognition program, selects a citizen of the year, and provides a meal for police, fi refi ghters and fi rst responders in May. In addition, the club targets one or two charities - e.g., the Steinford Toy Foundation and Mary Rose Mission - for funding support each quarter. Over one three-year period, the Rotary Club of Florence raised more than $30,000 to equip a hospice room at St. Elizabeth Healhcare. Another year, the club raised nearly $30,000 to provide uniforms to enable youngsters in Tanzania to attend school. Wilmhoff recalled a trip to Italy a year after a terrorist attack killed 13 and wounded 113 in 1985. His group was ad-

vised to walk directly through armed guards and police dogs to the terminal. But one of the local police stopped him and gestured to the Rotary Club pins in his pocket protector. Wilmhoff , who noted he speaks hillbilly better than Italian, came to understand the offi cer wanted one of the pins. He gladly complied. “In Rome, being a member of Rotary was a big deal,” he said. “It gets you into places you wouldn’t otherwise get in. “I think we sometimes forget about the international aspect of Rotary.” McEvoy was reminded in San Diego for district governor training when Bill Gates announced a matching fund program to aid the fi ght to eradicate polio. District governors were “literally crying from countries which polio continues to really aff ect,” he said. Gates had contributed $3.7 billion to the cause by the end of 2018, a quarter of which came from Rotary International, according to Forbes. “We are here for one reason” to help other people,” said McEvoy, whose father introduced him to Rotary at annual club outings at Camp Ernst as a youngster. “It’s been that way since I was a little boy … and it still is.” A recording of this presentation and past meetings of the Rotary Club of Florence is available on the club’s Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/RotaryClubFlorenceKY/ videos/463078784566291/ The Rotary Club of Florence, Kentucky (serving all of Boone County) is a community service organization focusing on “service above self ”. The club meets weekly on Mondays at noon at the Hilton Airport located at 7373 Turfway Road. Guests are always welcome.

You, or someone you know, may have harvested a deer this season. Now you may be looking for some new options for what to do with all of the meat. The University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service partnered with the Kentucky Division of Fish and Wildlife to develop healthy, tasty, costconscious recipes for a variety of wild fi sh and game. The recipes were developed with nutrition in mind. Developers Mason worked to control the sodium and fat in the recipes while maintaining taste. Additionally, ingredients added to the wild fi sh and game are readily available in typical grocery stores. Venison is a lean meat that is high in protein. Serving for serving it has less saturated fat but a bit more cholesterol than beef. Venison also provides important minerals including iron, niacin and ribofl avin. A 3-ounce serving of venison provides about 134 calories and 26 grams of protein. Because it is a naturally lean meat, cooking methods should be used to add or maintain moisture. If you have a chance, try the following recipe for venison meatloaf, one of the new “Cook Wild Kentucky” off erings. For additional recipes featuring venison, duck, dove, rabbit, frog legs, and fi sh, contact me at 859-586-6101. I’m happy to share easy wild game recipes that are gentle on the wallet and good for the body. VENISON MEATLOAF 8, 4-ounce portions Ingredients: ❚ 2 pounds ground venison ❚ 1 cup low-sodium beef broth ❚ 3 eggs, slightly beaten ❚ 1 teaspoon minced garlic (approximately 2 cloves) ❚ 2 cups plain, soft bread crumbs ❚ 1/2 cup chopped onion ❚ 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning ❚ 1/8 teaspoon salt ❚ 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper ❚ 1 (15 ounces) can crushed tomatoes ❚ 2 cups low-sodium tomato juice ❚ 1 tablespoon white or cider vinegar ❚ 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar ❚ 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder Directions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease two 9×5 loaf pans and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine fi rst 10 ingredients; mix well. In a separate bowl, combine tomato juice, vinegar, brown sugar, and dry mustard. Place equal amounts of meat mixture in each pan. Pour equal amounts of the sauce over each loaf. Bake 1 hour to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE
ANSWERS ON PAGE 6B
No. 1124 REPORT CARD
1
BY RANDOLPH ROSS / EDITED BY WILL SHORTZ Randolph Ross, of New York City, is a retired principal for high schools in Queens, Great Neck and Plainview, N.Y. Crosswords helped him get one of his jobs. He says his final interview with the Great Neck Board of Education was devoted mainly to crossword constructing rather than how to run a school. Having had one of his puzzles published in The Times shortly before ‘‘was good timing and made for a happy interview.’’ This is Randy’s 50th Sunday crossword for the paper and his 113th Times puzzle overall. — W.S.
