Boone County’s fair cancels over COVID-19: Hamilton County’s to go on with precautions Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

What each county fair in Northern Kentucky and Southwest Ohio is doing has become clearer with Boone County recently canceling and Hamilton County's fair board saying they will go on as scheduled with precautions.

Northern Kentucky Many of the events that make the Boone County 4-H & Utopia Fair award-winning are not permitted under COVID-19 regulations, according to a release on Facebook announcing the fair is canceled. The fair had been scheduled for Aug. 3-8.

Anderson High to get $400,000 audiovisual donation Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Forest Hills Local Schools has agreed to allow a church to hold Sunday services in the Anderson High School auditorium in exchange for an expected donation of $400,000 in audiovisual equipment. The 7 Hills Church of Florence, Kentucky, plans to begin in-person services for its “Cincinnati Campus” in leased space at the school in Anderson Township this fall or winter. The church will pay Forest Hills $3,000 in monthly rent for ﬁ ve years, beginning Oct. 1. The money will be earmarked for repairs and maintenance of the leased facilities at Anderson High School, which include the 600-seat auditorium, several classrooms and the cafeteria for children’s church. A contract between 7 Hills Church and the Forest Hills Board of Education says the church intends to invest about $400,000 in audiovisual equipment for the leased premises at Anderson High School and then donate it to the school district at the end of the lease. “The Parties further acknowledge and agree that (the church’s) promise to so invest and subsequently donate was a material inducement to the (school board’s) agreement to enter into this Lease Agreement,” the contract says. The 7 Hills Church has not yet bought the audiovisual equipment. But, “We will be bringing audiovisual teams to Anderson High School in the coming months to start the process of getting that equipment for the school,” said Jake Fraiture, who lives in Anderson Township and is on staﬀ at 7 Hills Church. “Once the audiovisual equipment is installed, Forest Hills can use it immediately.”

Forest Hills retained the right to use the leased premises at Anderson High School, located at 7560 Forest Road, on Sundays as needed. The 7 Hills Church will put down a $50,000 deposit to cover any damages it is responsible for. The church will continue to meet at its Florence location at 6800 Hazel Court when it opens its Anderson Township site.

“During services, Pastor (Marcus) Mecum will preach in person at the Florence campus and we will live stream him into our Cincinnati Campus,” Fraiture said. “My wife and I will help lead the teams in person at the Cincinnati Campus. “Florence and Cincinnati are the only campuses we have in the area right now, but our goal is to have more campuses in the tri-state area in the future,” Fraiture said.

‘We fell in love with the Anderson Township community’ Why did the 7 Hills Church decide to expand to Anderson Township? “What drew our attention to the east side of Cincinnati was the amount of people who would make the drive to our Florence campus on a weekly basis,” Fraiture said. “When we started to look into the east side of the city, we fell in love with the Anderson Township community and quickly built a great partnership with Forest Hills (Local) School District. “We look forward to serving the east side of Cincinnati for many years to come,” Fraiture said.

High school soccer player’s organ donation will help 100 others Joe Danneman Fox19

ERLANGER - The Erlanger community continues to grieve the loss of a 16year-old who died unexpectedly at St. Henry High School after collapsing during soccer practice. The father of Matthew Mangine Jr. wants his son’s story to inspire. “You know as a parent, you know your kid as a parent, but you don’t know. You have that feeling that you know and after talking with his friends and reading the support and them telling you the stories I’m not supposed to hear until his wedding - it made me realize what kind of kid he was,” Mangine said.

He’s called a changer and helper. It’s what Matthew did that’ll help change the lives of more than a hundred people. “Matthew had signed his donor card. I had never had that conversation with him. My wife did - and he had asked her about it. She said, ‘I do it to help someone else.’ He made that, that was one of the last decisions of his life. It puts into perspective who he was as a kid,” Mangine said. He was a happy kid - who would grow up to be a big brother - and a big presence on the soccer ﬁ eld. No one pictured the place where he won games would be the place where his friends now remember his loss.

“The way they’ve handled this is unbelievable because they’ve helped us get through this process,” Mangine said. Matthew’s father says the more he talks about his son, the better he feels. And - the more he talks to his son’s friends, the more he learns about his son’s impact. “He is the kid that I thought he was and it sucks that he’s not going to be here in the future, but while he was here, he did it right. That’s what we always talked about. I told him, ‘you got one shot. This is it. Use it as a positive inspiration. Be the inspiration. Don’t be the problem,‘” Mangine said. Enquirer media partner Fox19 provided this report.

Beshear releases guidance for getting Kentucky kids back to school Mandy McLaren The Courier-Journal USA TODAY NETWORK

FRANKFORT – Kentucky's 650,000 public school students will be required to wear masks, have their temperatures checked and keep their distance from peers in order to safely return to class this fall, according to the #HealthyatSchool guidance released by Gov. Andy Beshear's administration. State offi cials, including Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman, said schools will rely on support from their local communities as they work to enforce new rules in their classrooms. Asked what she would say to parents who balk at the requirements – especially the condition for children in grades one and above to wear masks – Coleman invoked the ongoing dangers of the COVID-19 pandemic. "I would very simply say that wearing a mask is more comfortable than wearing a respirator," said Coleman, a former teacher who also serves as secretary of the Education and Workforce Development Cabinet. The guidance, which was created by the Kentucky Department for Public Health, with feedback from the Kentucky Department of Education, superintendents and teachers, laid out fi ve key areas for schools to consider as they craft reopening plans: social distancing, cloth masks, health screenings, sanitation and contact tracing. The #HealthyatSchool guidance comes less than a week after Republican leaders in the Kentucky General Assembly issued a stern letter to state education offi cials, writing that there was a "great deal of frustration" among district superintendents over a lack of clear direction. Public, private and religious schools have been shuttered since mid-March, when Beshear recommended – rather than required – their closure. With Wednesday's announcement, his administration continued to largely avoid issuing broad mandates, including whether schools should begin the year with in-person classes. "We are allowing fl exibility to school districts to resume educational services as they see fi t," Coleman said, adding that she expects to see a variety of scenarios as schools reopen. Some may begin with in-person classes, while others will begin with remote instruction, she said. Jeff erson County Public Schools, Kentucky's largest district, plans to announce its reopening plan in mid-July. A spokeswoman for the district said JCPS

would review the new guidelines and "come up with innovative ideas to maximize learning in a safe and healthy environment for students and staff .” Other local school systems also said additional information would be forthcoming: i The Archdiocese of Louisville said it plans to release an announcement "later this week" about plans for the reopening of Louisville's Catholic schools. i Bullitt County Public Schools Superintendent Jesse Bacon said in a letter to families that his district intends to open Aug. 26. Facebook Live events over the coming weeks will provide families with more information, he said. i Oldham County Schools Superintendent Greg Schultz said his district is "still working through details" of the guidance but will do its "best to meet the expectations ... while providing the best educational experience we can for our students." Oldham plans to open Aug. 12. Dr. Steven Stack, Kentucky's public health commissioner, said offi cials chose not to provide specifi c COVID-19 benchmarks for reopening because they did not want to off er "false precision where it doesn't exist." Looking forward to the fall months, Stack said Kentucky could avoid having to close its schools again – if teachers, students and their parents follow the new public health rules. "I hope we never have to go back to that kind of shutdown," Stack said. Here's what you need to know about Kentucky's #HealthyatHome guidance:

Masks Students returning to in-person classes will be required to wear masks when moving around or if they’re within 6 feet of each other. Children in preschool or kindergarten will be exempt from the requirement. Schools should have extra masks on hand for students who arrive without their own face coverings. Though masks will be required, no student should be punished for not wearing a mask, oﬃ cials said. Instead, the state is encouraging teachers and other role models to demonstrate, by example, the importance of wearing one. A challenge, according to interim Education Commissioner Kevin Brown, will be whether schools have support from parents and others in the community. In some areas of Kentucky, mask wearing has become a "divisive issue," which is placing principals and teachers "in a conundrum," Brown said in a re-

cent call with superintendents across the state. Brown said community support will be crucial to keeping kids safe when they return to school. Namely, they need to see people in their families and society-at-large wearing masks while in public, he said.

Temperature checks Brown said that schools should be able to run full bus loads. Siblings will be expected to sit together. By placing their children on a school bus, parents are giving assurance that they do not have a fever, Brown said. However, if a student does have a temperature above 100.4 degrees, they cannot be left at a bus stop. Instead, they should be isolated to the greatest extent possible during the bus ride, with schools contacting their parents when they arrive to campus, according to the Kentucky Department of Education.

6-foot rule Students will be expected to remain, to the greatest extent possible, 6 feet apart from their peers during the school day. If classrooms are laid out so that kids are 6 or more feet apart, they may temporarily remove their masks. Otherwise, masks must remain on. Social distancing will be required in all common areas, and schools will be expected to place tape throughout hallways, marking oﬀ 6 feet of space.

Meals The state is recommending schools forgo regular cafeteria meal service amid COVID-19. Instead, schools should plan for different ways of serving food, including oﬀ ering “grab and go” meals or serving meals in classrooms, the Kentucky Department of Education said. Schools will also have to lengthen lunch periods to allow students adequate time for hand washing and eating their meals in a socially distanced environment, KDE said.

Employee testing The Beshear administration is asking that 10% of a school's employees be tested for COVID-19 on a weekly basis. Schools' insurance would cover that cost, oﬃ cials said. If a school employee tests positive for COVID-19, they have the option of using any accumulated sick or personal leave. They may also qualify for leave under federal emergency legislation, KDE said.

Feds: Three sentenced in counterfeit Disney DVD conspiracy Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Three people were sentenced June 24 after documents state they spent two years traﬃ cking counterfeit Disney DVDs in Boone County and elsewhere. U.S. District Judge David Bunning sentenced Hongtao Zhu, 43, Hui Lin, 36, and He Lin, 33, each to 46 months in prison, according to a release from the Department of Justice. All three will be required to serve at least 85% percent of their prison sentence and will be on probation for ﬁ ve years following their release. Zhu, Hui Lin and He Lin all pleaded guilty to the scheme in October, the release states. They admitted to conspiring to sell counterfeit DVDs, which were imported from China and sold via eBay from

May 2016 to May 2018. The DVDs appeared to be “genuine Disney productions,” the release states, when they were not. Court documents state the counterfeit DVDs were entitled “Up” and “Aladdin.” The counterfeit DVDs were advertised on eBay and the defendants accepted payments from customers through PayPal. Documents state each counterfeit DVD had a counterfeit mark “identical with, or indistinguishable from” the Disney logo, which United States attorneys claimed was likely used to deceive. In addition to their prison sentences, Bunning also determined the defendants must pay nearly $900,000 in restitution, according to the release. The release states the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Motion Picture Association conducted the investigation.

GNC Holdings Inc., parent company of health and wellness retailer GNC, has fi led for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and said it plans to close “at least 800 to 1,200 stores.” The Pittsburgh-based chain – which had approximately 5,200 retail locations in the U.S. and 7,300 locations globally as of March 31 – said the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the need to fi le for bankruptcy protection after being under "fi nancial pressure for the past several years." "The COVID-19 pandemic created a situation where we were unable to accomplish our refi nancing and the abrupt change in the operating environment had a dramatic negative impact on our business,” the retailer said in frequently asked questions about

the decision. In recent years, GNC has been cutting down on locations. In November 2018, GNC oﬃ cials had announced that they would close up to 900 stores over the next three years in the U.S. and Canada as leases expire. In July 2019, the retailer said it planned to focus the closings on mall locations. GNC has not yet released a list of locations that will close, but the saturated Greater Cincinnati market could be a target. As of June 24, GNC's website said it operates 27 locations in Greater Cincinnati, from Union to Middletown and as far west as Lawrenceburg. There are six locations in Northern Kentucky alone. Many of the Greater Cincinnati GNC locations are in malls, strip malls and shopping plazas such as Crestview Hills Town Center, Cincinnati Premium Outlets and Eastgate Mall. USA TODAY contributed.

Enjoy orzo salad with vegetables and herbs Orzo salad with vegetables and herbs This makes a lot, but leftovers are so good. You could divide it in half. Go to taste on seasonings, adding more if you wish. I’ve changed the recipe a bit and here’s how I’m making it now. Salad ingredients 1 # whole wheat or regular orzo, cooked according to package directions 1 cup diced red onions 1 cup corn, thawed if frozen, cooked a bit if fresh 1 red, orange or yellow bell pepper, diced 1 bunch green onions, sliced, white root end also (may not use all) 1 cup dried currants, chopped dried apricots or chopped dried cherries 1 cup toasted slivered or sliced toasted almonds plus extra for garnish Handful fresh basil, chopped Several handfuls spinach, arugula, or mixed greens (optional) Salt and pepper Shredded Romano cheese for garnish Instructions

Orzo salad uses the produce of summer. RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Gosh, this week I’m having a hard time deciding what recipe to share. Will it be black and red raspberry jams? With this latest rain (thankfully) my berries are ripening fast. Or classic cherry bounce made with black sweet cherries? A good for what ails you “potion” and a lovely liqueur. Cherries are in season and I’ve gotten several requests to share that recipe again. If I’m going strictly by the number of requests, though, you want my totable orzo salad more than the jams or liqueur. I’m thinking that’s because July 4 is around the corner. Take a moment won’t you, and be mindful of the abundant blessings of living in this country. Yes, we’re living in challenging times. But we have love, fellowship and caring

along with amazing food. Good reasons to gather and celebrate this holiday. This orzo salad is the perfect “go with” for a summer meal. No worries, though, about the jams and cherry bounce. Go ahead, stock up and freeze the fruit if you want (cherries should be stemmed but leave the pit in). I’ll get you those recipes in the next couple of weeks.

White balsamic vinaigrette ingredients ⁄ 3 cup white balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons lemon juice, to taste 2 generous teaspoons minced garlic 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1-2 teaspoons sugar, to taste Palmful basil, minced ⁄ 2 cup olive oil

⁄ 2 cup vegetable oil

Tip: Toast almonds ly.

Drain orzo and let cool a bit. Toss with everything but cheese. Set aside while making dressing.

Slivered and sliced almonds burn easi-

Skillet: Put nuts in dry skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently until nuts smell toasty and are golden. Remove from skillet immediately. Oven: Preheat to 325.

SPORTS Ryle’s Maddie Scherr named Kentucky Miss Basketball James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

In what was almost a foregone conclusion after months of winning individual awards, Ryle 2020 graduate Maddie Scherr was named Miss Basketball Sunday by the Kentucky Lions Eye Foundation. The award was presented virtually Sunday, with a member of the committee showing up at her home to hand her the trophy on a live broadcast. She becomes the sixth Miss Basketball in Northern Kentucky history, all from six diff erent schools. Scherr follows Donna Murphy of Newport (1976), Jaime Walz of Highlands (1996), Katie Schwegmann of Bishop Brossart (2001), Erica Hallman of Holmes (2002) and Sydney Moss of Boone County (2012). Murphy was the fi rst player to win the award. “It’s a huge honor,” Scherr said. “Since I’ve been in the fi fth grade, I’ve thought about being Miss Basketball and it fi nally feels real.” She credited her loved ones in her life for helping her win the award. “Just the relationships with the people and everyone I’ve met, how they’ve supported me not just through basketball but through life moments and my high school career,” she said. The honor adds to the litany of awards Scherr has won this season. She became Northern Kentucky’s fi rst ever McDonald’s All-American, the fourth in Greater Cincinnati history and the fi fth in Kentucky history. The McDonald’s All-American All-Star Games were canceled by the coronavirus pandemic. She won the Gatorade Player of the Year in Kentucky for the second straight year and was also awarded the Donna Murphy Award by the Kentucky Lions Eye Foundation for her on-court and off -court success. Scherr graduated as Ryle’s all-time leader in scoring, rebounding and assists, and led the Raiders to the 2019 state champion, Ryle’s fi rst title and Northern Kentucky’s second. Ryle won the Ninth Region for the third straight season this March and reached the state quarterfi nals before the tournament was canceled by the pandemic. She has a 3.8 GPA and is a Young Life participant and has acted as a Young Life Junior Leader and Mentor. She has been actively involved in coordinating Ryle’s girls basketball camps for kids and has volunteered as a leader at local youth soccer camps. Last year she set up, coordinated and ran a small group bible study for high school girls. She has signed with Oregon, an NCAA Final Four team in 2019 who was a national championship contender this past season before that season was canceled. "I’m a really versatile player,” she said. “I would rather give an assist than score a bucket, and I try to do everything I can to help." There is one more award on the horizon, as the Kentucky Associated Press has yet to release its all-state teams as voted on by media around the state. Simon Kenton senior Maggie Jones was also a fi nalist out of the Eighth Region. Covington Catholic guard Grant Disken was a fi nalist for Mr. Basketball, which went to Dayvion McKnight of Collins out of the Eighth Region. NKU signees Kennedy Igo from George Rogers Clark and Marques Warrick of Henry Clay were also nominated for Miss and Mr. Basketball, respectively. In addition, Walton-Verona’s Brant Smithers won an award from the Lions Eye Foundation for leading the state in free-throw percentage (90 percent). Simon Kenton 2020 graduate Jeremy Davis won an award for leading the state in 3-pointers per game (4.0).

Greater Cincinnati’s top prep athletes honored Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Cincinnati.com Sports Awards was a virtual event this year hosted by national sports broadcasters Jesse Palmer, Sage Steele, Dr. Jerry Punch and Courtney Cronin. Big winners on the night included Ohio State commit Kailyn Dudukovich and the Lakota West girls soccer team. Dudukovich was named Girls Soccer Player of the Year for leading Lakota West to the Ohio Division I state championship and also Girls Athlete of the Year as she is a starter on the Firebirds girls basketball team. She was also recently named Ohio Gatorade Girls Soccer Player of the Year. Both Dudukovich and Boys Soccer Player of the Year Parker Grinstead of Moeller were announced by U.S Women's team member and native Cincinnatian Rose Lavelle, formerly of Mount Notre Dame. The Lakota West state championship girls soccer team coached by Brigit Reder was named Team of the Year by New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. In similar fashion incoming University of Cincinnati freshman Evan Prater was named Boys Small School Football Player of the Year after earning Ohio's Mr. Football Award as the quarterback of the Wyoming Cowboys. Also a top scorer and rebounder for Wyoming's basketball team, Prater also won Athlete of the Year honors. The Dudukovich and Prater allaround awards were announced by Super Bowl MVP quarterback Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs. While Prater took the small school football award, Notre Dame-bound Michael Mayer of Covington Catholic was the Big School Football Player of the Year. Likewise, Mayer was Kentucky's Mr. Football, giving Greater Cincinnati a pair of highly-decorated pigskin performers. Both football honors were presented by New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees. In hoops, Moeller's Max Land was Big School Boys Basketball Player of the Year. Land was denied the chance at a third straight Division I state championship with the Crusaders due to new coronavirus restrictions put in place as the OHSAA tournament got underway. Land will play at St. Francis and was ﬁ rst-team all-state.

Wyoming's Isaiah Walker, who has another year to play for the Cowboys, was Small School Boys Basketball Player of the Year. Like teammate Evan Prater, he was an All-State selection. As a junior Walker led the Cincinnati Hills League in scoring at 24.7 points per game for the 24-1 Cowboys. The Girls Big School Basketball Player of the Year came from Kentucky with McDonald's All-American Maddie Scherr winning. Like many seniors, her KHSAA tournament was cut short with the Raiders. Scherr will next play for the Oregon Ducks. From Indian Hill, the Girls Small School Basketball Player of the Year award went to Maddie Antenucci. an All-State pick and two-time CHL Player of the Year. Antenucci is now a member of the squad at Florida Gulf Coast University. Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors made all of the basketball announcements. For leading La Salle High School to their fourth Division II state football title, Pat McLaughlin was named Coach of the Year. The Lancers rebounded from a 4-5 season in 2018 to go 13-2, defeating Massillon Washington in the championship. The Courage Award was presented to Torie Houston of Holy Cross volleyball. Houston has overcome a rare, blood disorder to earn a scholarship at Northern Kentucky University. Oﬀ ensive lineman/long snapper Eric Meeks of Walnut Hills was the recipient of the I AM SPORT award given to student-athletes for their contributions to their communities outside of athletics. Meeks is an Eagle Scout who raised $10,000 to put up bleachers with 44 volunteers at Evanston Park. Harrison's Hailey Quinn was also recognized as Girls Special Olympics Athlete of the Year, with Colerain's Ralph Creekmore winning Boys Special Olympics Athlete of the Year. Other professionals presenting awards for each state-sanctioned sport covered during the show, included Venus Williams, Michael Phelps, Wayne Gretzky, Gabby Douglas, Bode Miller, Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Gary Woodland, Misty May-Treanor, Jordan Burroughs, Norm Duke, Jessica Mendoza and Keli Smith Puzo.

Florence Y’alls to play with reduced capacity Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Y’all ready for baseball? The Florence Y’alls minor league baseball team announced June 24 that the team will play this summer with fans at 50% capacity. But it’s unclear which teams they’ll play, since its umbrella group, the Frontier League, canceled its 2020 season due to COVID-19. In April, the league postponed its season and hoped to just delay its opening day, originally set for May 14. Another independent league, the American Association, recently announced it intends to play a season starting July 3 with six teams in three hubs. On June 24, The Frontier League announced that the 2020 season was oﬃ cially canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the various restrictions in each state. The Frontier League, the largest and longest-running independent league, has teams spanning from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River and from the Ohio River up into Canada. It determined traveling and hosting crowds wasn’t feasible because of the diﬀ erent restrictions in place across its 14 markets. Some teams in the league followed the umbrella group and canceled its season well, such as the team in Evansville, Indiana, the Evansville Otters. The Florence Y’alls, which changed its team name in January, will play in about a month. The local team can play because all teams were given the option to pursue baseball and other activities, based on the team’s state and local restrictions, according to a press release from the Frontier League. On June 22, Gov. Andy Beshear announced that outdoor venues, such as baseball parks, may open at a 50% capacity. That means up to 2,000 fans can watch the Florence Y’alls play this summer, said Hannah Siefert, director of fan communications. Details about the Florence Y’alls 2020 season are still being worked out,

Luis Pintor drives a hit into left ﬁ eld for the Florence Freedom in Game 5 of the Frontier League Championship at UC Health Stadium in Florence, Ky., September 16, 2019. GEOFF BLANKENSHIP FOR THE ENQUIRER

Siefert said, and added that more information should be available soon. “The Florence Y’alls, along with the other teams that plan to play baseball this year support the fellow Frontier League teams that are unable to play baseball,” the press release from the Florence team said.

Deadhead for longer bloom times In the garden, the practice of deadheading your plants can promote more blooms. Plants live to reproduce, and the way they do that is through their fl owers. When you remove dead blooms from a plant, you also remove their ovaries. Stolz Many plants then take the energy it would have used to produce seeds and put it into producing more fl owers, hoping the next time you’ll leave it alone to do its job. Of course, if you want continuous bloom in the garden, you won’t. From a purely aesthetic perspective, deadheading can improve the looks of your garden by reshaping plants and removing unsightly waste. Not all plants will rebloom after deadheading, such as daylilies and daff odils. In fact, deadheading is used more for annuals than for perennials. However, the practice can still benefi t perennials by forcing them to put their energy into the bulb or rhizomes rather than into seed production. This often produces hardier plants that bloom more profusely next year. Deadheading can also prevent reseeding, which can reduce your time spent weeding later. However, in late

summer or early fall, allowing some plants, such as conefl owers, to form seeds can give overwintering birds and other wildlife an important food source. Deadheading is an easy task and one that you can do as you stroll through your garden on a pleasant summer’s day. Simply pinch or cut off the dead bloom below the fl ower and above the fi rst set of leaves. Do this to all the dead fl owers on the plant. Some perennials, like dianthus, bloom profusely all at once, which means the fl owers will fade at the same time. It’s often easier to deadhead these with shears, taking the top one or two inches off the stems. This can stimulate a second bloom, though it will not be as lush as the fi rst bloom. If you have multiple fl owers on a stem, wait until all the fl owers have faded, then cut back the main stem. Some annuals, like petunia and verbena that produce lots of blooms also present a problem when deadheading. It is tedious to remove all the spent blooms. Wait until a natural break in bloom, cut the plants back, and apply fertilizer (only to annuals not to perennials in summer). Make sure there is ample water after fertilization. Many annuals will respond by renewing growth and resuming fl owering. Other annuals, like Wave petunias and Profusion zinnias often don’t need to be deadheaded. They will either continue to bloom without your help or are sterile and will not produce seed. Some perennials that will benefi t from deadheading include foxglove, bee balm, hollyhock, coreopsis, butterfl y bush, lavender, salvia and scabiosa.

SCHOOL NEWS Walz hired to lead NewCath Dance Team Newport Central Catholic is happy to announce that Taylor Anne Walz will be leading its Dance Team this school year. Taylor Anne Walz is a 2015 graduate of Newport Central Catholic. Taylor Anne has been dancing with Manyet Dance, LLC for 21 years and has been employed as a lead instructor for 11 years, working with ages three to 18. After graduating from NCC, she attended Thomas More University, where she received a degree in elementary education. While at Thomas More, she continued her dance training and helped to form the inaugural Thomas More Dance Team in which she served as captain for three years. After graduating, Taylor Anne took the position of events manager for the Offi ce of Institutional Advancement for the university and is continuing her education by working to complete her master’s degree in ethical leadership. Taylor Anne has been the assistant dance team coach at Bishop Brossart High School for the past three years and is very excited to take this next step into a head coaching position and launch the dance team program at NCC. “I am overjoyed to be back up on the hill doing something that I love so much! My time at Newport Central Catholic was fi lled with many wonderful opportunities and experiences, and I’m honored to be able to invest back into my school and our students. A dance team is something that I always wished existed at NCC, and I believe the program will off er current and prospective students an athletic experience rooted in

community, faith, and success.” Athletic Director Jeff Schulkens said, “We are pleased to have another talented alum on staff . Taylor is highly qualifi ed, and we look forward to the dance team returning this school year.” Tessy B. Krebs, Newport Central Catholic High School

WCC announces Seasongood Scholarship winners The Woman’s City Club of Greater Cincinnati established the Agnes Seasongood Education Awards to encourage responsible civic awareness among local high school seniors who identify as female. Students are invited to submit an essay on the topic of “Growing Into Citizenship: Trusting My Voice and Making It Heard,” with a letter of recommendation. Recipients are selected using a holistic approach with multiple readers who focus on what entrants have specifi cally done thus far and how they plan to continue to fi nd their voices and make them heard. This year we received nearly 50 submissions from nearly 30 area schools. Six $1,000 education awards were presented: ❚ Aissatou Barry (Taft) wrote about volunteering and her involvement in groups for young women, such as Girls in STEM and Women Writing for a Change, in her adopted city of Cincinnati. She is fl uent in four languages. ❚ Graciela Grunkemeyer (Beechwood) told us the story of her mother and her Abuelo Hector. She advocates for Latino students in Northern Kentucky, and is the fi rst student at Beechwood to be recognized by National Merit as a National Hispanic Scholar.

❚ Madison Kimber-Crutcher (DePaul Cristo Rey) wrote about her mother’s struggle with kidney disease. She plans to go into nursing, and currently coops through DePaul Cristo Rey at Mercy Health Anderson. ❚ Emma Krebs (West Clermont) wrote about challenges faced by women (including herself) pursuing a medical degree. Not only does she have the highest GPA in the history of her school, she also volunteers at the library, local hospital, Camp Cardiac, and a church group, and tutors students during her lunch bell. ❚ Dailey Moore (Taylor) wrote about being a self-advocate while living with a hearing impairment. She has traveled to Japan as a summer exchange student. She plans to attend the University of Cincinnati in the fall. ❚ Anastasia Pohlgeers (Campbell County) describes herself as “bent, not broken,” after her experiences in foster care. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear recognized her as “a resilient, brave, and intelligent young woman when she spoke in the capitol rotunda for Children’s Advocacy Day.” WCC’s annual Feist-Tea fundraiser, held in December, helps raise the money for the scholarships. The awards also are funded by earmarked donations during our pledge drive, as well as the extraordinary generosity of an individual benefactor. Unlike most scholarships, WCC’s Seasongood Education Awards are presented in the form of a check to the student, and may be used for peripheral costs other than tuition if the awardee so desires. This year we are postponing our usual recognition event, but want to wish our scholars congratulations on their graduation and new adventures. Anne Skove, Woman’s City Club
