COVID-19 vaccines shifting to primary care doctors Terry DeMio Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

If you’re looking for a COVID-19 vaccination you might not need to look further than your primary care doctor soon. Several Cincinnati area primary care physicians’ offi ces are being phased in as vaccine providers, to add to the array of ways to get a vaccine in the region. “In Hamilton County, a number of the hospitals are starting to off er COVID vaccinations at their primary care and pediatrician offi ces. The physician offi ces are typically focused on the patients of those practices,” said Kate Schroder, special adviser, vaccine coordinator for the Health Collaborative. “And patients who may be more comfortable getting a vaccine from their usual doctor’s staff should reach out to check availability.” In Northern Kentucky beginning June 1, St. Elizabeth Healthcare will shift its COVID-19 vaccine appointments from its St. Elizabeth Training and Education Center, which has operated as a clinic sight since vaccines fi rst arrived in Kentucky, to St. Elizabeth Physicians primary care sites. The vaccines will become available at select offi ces through the fi rst two weeks of June, and will transition to all practices with primary care locations by mid-June, offi cials said. Initially, the Moderna vaccine will be the only COVID-19 vaccine administered at the St. Elizabeth Physicians offi ces. Patients will have the option to receive their vaccine at their appointment when they see their provider, and appointments for the second dose will be made before leaving the offi ce. The hospital system will not initially vaccinate kids 12-15 with the Pfi zer vaccine, but St. E has has provided vaccine to other local pediatricians to help meet the demand, offi cials said. The Moderna vaccine has not yet been FDA-approved for kids this age, so they will not be vaccinated initially at the primary care offi ces, but once approvals come, St. Elizabeth Physicians offi ces will off er the vaccine for kids’ appointments in the age group. Several of Christ Hospital’s primary care doctors’ offi ces already are providing the vaccine.

Mercy Health-Cincinnati is expanding its vaccine locations by oﬀ ering COVID-19 vaccinations through its primary care practices as part of its standard patient care, said spokeswoman Nanette

Bentley. As people schedule appointments, they’ll be directed to locations that off er the vaccines. Gradually, more primary care offi ces will carry the vaccine. The hospital system will also continue vaccination clinics at Mercy Hospital Clermont, Kenwood Towne Centre and and Kyles Station for eligible area residents, as well as other community and employer vaccine partnerships. UC Health still has a dedicated vaccination center, but it moved this week from a garage to a walk-in clinic at West Professional Building on Burnet Avenue in Avondale, an outpatient location. “We are not off ering vaccinations in primary care offi ces, but UC Health primary care physicians have always been able to refer eligible patients to our vaccination center,” said spokeswoman Amanda Nageleisen. In addition, she said, inpatients and emergency department patients at UC Medical Center and

Daniel Drake Center for Post-Acute Care are being off ered vaccination upon discharge. TriHealth’s approach to vaccination access is focused on “meeting individuals where they are” by having a variety of options for people who want the vaccine, offi cials said in a statement. The options include community popup vaccine sites across the region, collaborating with employers and schools to off er on-site vaccinations, and continuing vaccine access within the TriHealth system -- including at physician and pediatric offi ces, which are getting the vaccine in a phased-in process. Across the region, vaccine clinics are being right-sized to match current demand and off er vaccinations in the most convenient, accessible locations,” Schroder said, adding that the largescale stadium vaccination clinics are not needed anymore.

One jail treats addicted inmates, forges path of aftercare Terry DeMio Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

It’s jail, yes, but a diff erent kind of jail for inmates with addiction “Stranger Things” plays on the dorm TV on Friday afternoons, and they are fi xated. The men indulge in pizza and pop occasionally. They love that. And sometimes, one of the guys (an expert with clippers) cuts another’s hair, no charge. Welcome to jail. The Kenton County Detention Center in Independence wasn’t always like this. It has embraced science-based research for inmates with addiction who want it since 2015. The plan was a response to the fi rst major infl ux of fentanyl in Northern Kentucky, when overdose deaths skyrocketed and people with opioid use disorder fi lled the jail. Don’t misunderstand. It’s still jail. But it is rare for jails and prisons in the United States to off er a full continuum of

treatment for inmates with addiction, and especially, to include medication – even though it is the standard of care. Here, in 2015, offi cials tried something new: They hired Jason Merrick, a certifi ed drug and alcohol addiction counselor with degrees in social work and in recovery himself, to a newly created role: Addiction Services director. Merrick pieced together a jail stay for those with substance use disorder that was framed around what addiction specialists saw as best practices. It was a solid start. Its evolution never stopped. In 2018, the eff ort expanded: The jail partnered with Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation, a nationally known treatment provider, in a program called Strong Start Comprehensive Opioid Response with 12 Steps and Reentry. It’s three months of treatment, off ering a range of opioid-use disorder medications, followed by three months of afterSee JAIL, Page 9A

FBI arrests Covington man in connection to U.S. Capitol riot Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Covington man was arrested May 27 by the FBI in connection to the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol breach. Nicholas James Brockhoff was accused of spraying offi cers with a fi re extinguisher at about 1 p.m. from scaff olding set up for President Joe Biden's inauguration on the Lower West Terrace of the Capitol, according to a U.S. Department of Justice release. Numerous people were on the scaff olding above offi cers of the U.S. Capitol Police and the Metropolitan Police Department who were trying to control the crowd, according to the release. An FBI video shows a man with a fi re extinguisher dousing offi cers below. Offi cers' vision was obstructed, according to the release. The 20-year-old was scheduled to appear in federal court in the Western District of Tennessee May 27. The charges fi led against Brockhoff include assaulting, resisting or impeding certain offi cers; use of a deadly or dangerous weapon; and obstruction of law enforcement during civil disorder, according to the release. Surveillance video showed Brockhoff entered the Capitol building through a broken window. An MPD offi cer's body camera shows Brockhoff with a stolen MPD helmet, according to court documents. Brockhoff is accused of telling an offi cer on video “I just found it [the MPD helmet] on the ground." The Covington man later told the offi cer his name, according to the release. He confi rmed minor injuries due to broken glass.

Kenton County educator named 2021 KEA’s Teacher of the Year Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A ninth-grade English teacher at Simon Kenton High School was named Teacher of the Year by the Kentucky Education Association, offi cials recently announced. Leann Lewis graduated from Morehead State University in 2001 with a bachelor’s in English education and then earned her master’s in education from Indiana Wesleyan University in 2008, according to a news release. She has worked at Kenton High School for 19 years. “This year has proven that as an education community we can work together to learn skills and strategies to support new learning formats, creative ways to engage students in person or virtually,” Lewis said in the release. “Just because we fi ll the role of the teacher and manager of the classroom does not mean that we are fi nished learning. I think that has infl uenced our students in a positive way as well; to see that learning is not just for school hours but for a lifetime.” The Kentucky Education Association is a labor organization representing more than 40,000 active, as-

piring and retired educators in the commonwealth. The Teacher of the Year award is given to a member who excels in ﬁ ve teaching areas: professional practice, advocacy for the profession, attention to diversity, community engagement and leadership in professional develop-

ment. “Leann Lewis embodies what a KEA educator in Kentucky strives to be,” Kentucky Education Association president Eddie Campbell said in the release. “She is dedicated and involved with her students, school, community and profession. She works to make each of them better. She is so deserving of this teacher of the year award.” Lewis focuses on student engagement, community building and social and emotional learning at Simon Kenton. She was inspired by her own teachers growing up, and by her mother, who was a preschool teacher and a kindergarten instructional assistant. “Teaching has always been my ﬁ rst career choice,” Lewis said. “I love being a teacher because I love learning and sharing what I have learned.”

Kids’ doctors prep for COVID-19 vaccines, answer parent questions Terry DeMio Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date – May 24 (updated May 25). Pediatricians in the Cincinnati region are gearing up for giving COVID-19 vaccines to kids in their offi ce practices, adding a layer of familiarity for parents and kids who are considering the inoculations. The FDA approved the Pfi zer-BioNTech vaccine for children ages 12-15 on May 10, and already, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center is providing the vaccines at clinics, while others are anticipating a quick rollout of offi ce-based vaccination. On May 25, Moderna announced results for its clinical trials for 12- to 17year-olds that are similar to Pfi zer’s, leaving the door open for a second COVID-19 vaccine for children soon. Dr. Chris Peltier of Pediatric Associates of Mount Carmel said he expects to receive a shipment of the Pfi zerBioNtech vaccine to his offi ce on May 25 and to start in-offi ce clinics on May 27. He’s also planning how to incorporate the vaccines as part of usual wellness checks, sports-team physicals, and other routine offi ce visits that children typically get. “This is what’s going to be the future – the next piece of what the COVID vaccine is,” Peltier said. Dr. Mary Carol Burkhardt, a pediatrician in Cincinnati Children’s division of general and community pediatrics and associate division director of primary care for the center, said that in her experience so far, kids of all age groups have been enthusiastic about getting the Pfi zer vaccine. Peltier noticed this, too: “It’s almost a synergy” with teenagers, he said. “They get it, and they want to return to a normal life. This is the way they believe it can happen.” Parents and guardians, though, may not be so confi dent, and area pediatricians say they hope to address their uncertainties. Having vaccinations at their

Sixteen-year-old Melanie participated in the Pﬁ zer vaccine trial at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. The vaccine now is available for children as young as age 12. PCIN

children’s doctor’s offi ces is a way to do that, several said. “Often after an informed discussion in the offi ce, patients are more inclined to receive the vaccine,” said Dr. Robert Tracy of St. Elizabeth Physicians Cold Spring family practice offi ce. “There is lots of vaccine hesitancy. They look to their PCP (primary care physicians) for informed answers.” “We are receiving lots of questions related to vaccination,” said Dr. John LaCount, a pediatrician at St. Elizabeth Physicians-Florence. “We have no current population that we see where vaccines would not be appropriate to be provided to them, so we are trying to help people by providing direct information to them about vaccination.” Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine also requires two inoculations, and the company says its results show full protection two weeks following the second shot. The trial involved more than 3,700 adolescents, two-thirds of whom received the vaccine and one-third of whom received a placebo. The next step will be for Moderna to submit its fi ndings to the FDA and U.S.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “It’s good news that there potentially would be a second vaccination for children 12 and up,” said Dr. Robert Frenck, director of Cincinnati Children’s Gamble Vaccine Research Center. Frenck headed the Pﬁ zer BioNTech clinical trials in adolescents there and said no scientiﬁ c or safety steps were skipped. Results were that the safety of the vaccine in 12- to 15-year-olds “basically was identical to that of 16- to 25-yearolds,” Frenck said. “The immune response actually was superior to that in 16- to 25-year-olds.” And, there were no cases of COVID-19 in vaccine recipients as opposed to 18 cases for those in the control group. Frenck and other pediatricians said that the talk of future fertility problems from the vaccines is false.

What to know about mRNA vaccines Most of these questions seem to be propelled by misunderstandings about messenger RNA (mRNA) in the vaccine, the doctors said.

Frenck said the mRNA protects people from COVID-19. He said it stimulates the body to make antibodies to spike protein. “The spike protein is what the virus uses to attach to our cells. The antibodies against spike protein block the spike protein from attaching to our cells and thus keep us from getting infected.” He also mentioned these facts about the mRNA: h It is broken down by the body in one to two days. h It does not get into a patient’s genome (DNA). h It does not make you infertile. Burkhardt also said fertility connections to the vaccines are a myth: “There’s a lot circulating on social media and moms’ groups about fertility concerns. There is no scientifi c evidence that links this vaccination to fertility.” Responding to parents’ and guardians’ anxiety about how quickly the vaccines were approved, she said, “All the bureaucracy and red tape was cut through. The world stopped. That really helped expedite it. But all the needed scientifi c steps and safety steps were done.” LaCount said his offi ce wasn’t yet placed on the distribution list for the vaccine in Kentucky, but he’s hopeful that will happen by this summer. In the meantime, he said, the offi ce is fi elding questions and providing answers to patients’ families as they come in, adding, “We are receiving lots of questions related to vaccination.” Burkhardt said it’s important that as many kids (and their parents) as possible who are eligible for the vaccine are given it relatively soon because the age eligibility is expected to drop again before schools open for their fall 2021 semester. Getting vaccinated now, she said, will “prevent a bottleneck” later. Peltier, who is also president-elect of the Ohio Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, has a message for pediatricians in the state, as well: “This is important to do in your offi ce.”

Who's getting new Kentucky tax breaks? Here's 3 of the big beneﬁ ters Joe Sonka Louisville Courier Journal USA TODAY NETWORK

The Kentucky General Assembly in its 2021 legislative session did not pass any across-the-board tax cuts or increases, but it did pass bills providing potentially hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks and incentives to specifi c industries over the coming years. These recipients of expanded tax incentives include the producers of fi lms, television shows and documentaries and developers restoring or renovating historic properties, as well as new players in the economy like cryptocurrency mining operators. While some of these tax breaks were lobbied for by the aff ected businesses and other advocacy groups as measures that would attract economic development and create jobs, they also drew sharp criticism from across the ideological divide. Kentucky’s most prominent think tanks on the left and right panned several of the tax breaks, both on their merits and the rushed process in which they were passed — slipped into bills late in the session with little public debate or scrutiny. Here's a rundown of the kinds of tax breaks these industries are set to receive:

The Seelbach Hilton Hotel. MICHAEL CLEVENGER/COURIER JOURNAL

projects in 2018 to already be awarded tax credits are Bravo’s Kentucky season of “Top Chef,” which received $1.7 million; small-budget box offi ce fi lm “The Big Ugly,” which received $1.2 million; and a Georgia fi lm company’s 10-episode "all-access" series on the University of Kentucky men’s basketball team, which received $442,349. A tourism cabinet spokesperson said no credits have been awarded to completed projects since 2019, though a report by the state budget director late that year estimated up to $40 million of credits could be paid out in the 2021 fi scal year to pending projects and $86 million in the following year. A report on the economic impact of fi lm tax credits commissioned by the tourism cabinet in 2020 painted a positive picture of the refundable credits era of 2015-18, but limited its interview subjects to local fi lm industry leaders who have benefi ted from and advocated for the continuation of such credits. While advocates say the tax credits will help to build and expand the local fi lm industry and boost local economies by projects locating in Kentucky, critics on both the left and right have called it a waste of tax dollars. “This is just a mechanism of subsidizing fi lm production for what has largely been in the state of Kentucky an industry that's here today, gone tomorrow,” said Andrew McNeil of libertarian think tank Bluegrass Institute. “There's very little lasting economic impact.” Progressive think tank Kentucky Center for Economic Policy has also long opposed fi lm tax credits, citing research across the country fi nding such programs ineff ective and wasteful

Film and television industry House Bill 249 revived a tax credit program for fi lm and television projects that was largely put on ice by former Gov. Matt Bevin and the legislature in 2018, but could now result in up to $75 million in refundable credits annually to the industry. Under the new changes set to begin in January, companies can once again receive a refundable tax credit for 3035% of their expenditures on a specifi c fi lm or television project — meaning the state cuts them a check for that amount, no matter their state income tax liability. Kentucky’s fi lm tax credits program took off in 2015 when the legislature sweetened the incentives by lifting them to 30-35% of expenditures and making them refundable, without any cap in place on how many could be approved. The amount approved by the Kentucky Film Offi ce ballooned from $6 million in 2015 to $50 million in 2016 and $119 million in 2017 — though the awarded tax credits for completed projects in each of the latter two years totaled only about $10 million. Amid media criticism of the program, Bevin set a Feb. 1 date for project applications to close in 2018 — with companies applying for a fl ood of projects adding up to nearly $420 million of tax credits in January of that year alone. Following the legislature’s move in 2018 to make the tax credits non-refundable, non-transferable and cap them at $100 million annually, applications have dried to a trickle, with just $1.5 million of tax credits approved in 2019 and none this year. Local fi lm companies and tourism agencies lobbied to make the tax credits refundable again this year, arguing the state had snuff ed out an industry that was on the rise in the preceding years and needed to compete for projects with states like Georgia that have generous incentives. Among the last round of approved

breaks and contributing to campaigns of key legislative leaders. The lift in the annual cap for historical preservation tax credits to $100 million begins April 30 next year, with 25% of those reserved for owner-occupied residential property. Historic preservation advocates have favored lifting the cap to incentivize developers to restore historic buildings and spur reinvestments in downtown areas across the state, with Preservation Kentucky supporting a bill this past session to raise the cap to $30 million and add incentives for rural projects. McNeil and Bailey have both criticized the special carve out for the Seelbach, noting the corresponding campaign contributions of the Seelbach owner and the manner in which the ﬁ lm and historical preservation tax credits were added to HB 249 late in the session, with little debate before passage. While the Bluegrass Institute prefers major across-the-board tax cuts and reduced government spending, Bailey has said tax breaks like the one for the Seelbach are "just a poor use of scarce dollars for a state that says it can't aﬀ ord textbooks for kids."

Cryptocurrency miners House Bill 230 and Senate Bill 255 added new tax breaks for cryptocurrency companies in the next ﬁ scal year, hoping to lure companies into building large, energy-intensive mining facilities in Kentucky. Cryptocurrency mining is the complicated process in which high-powered computers solve complex mathematical problems to verify and secure cryptocurrency transactions and add them to a blockchain public ledger, while also creating new currency units, such as Bitcoin. As of now, such facilities in Kentucky are rare and clustered in western Kentucky — with Core Scientiﬁ c opening a crypto mining facility in a closed Calvert City steel mill in late 2019 and Blockware Mining getting approved by the state in January for $200,000 of tax breaks to maintain 10 jobs over 15 years at a $28.4

Developers using historic preservation House Bill 249 will also raise by twentyfold the annual cap on what developers or home owners can receive in refundable tax credits for preserving historic properties, from $5 million to $100 million. Since 2010, rehabilitations of owneroccupied residencies that are certifi ed historic structures have been eligible for a tax credit of 30% of those costs, while rehabilitations of other historical properties receive a 20% tax credit. Whereas the current maximum tax credit on a single non-owner-occupied residential property is $400,000, HB 249 includes language singling out one specifi c — but unnamed — historic hotel project that can receive up to $6 million of tax credits on the fi rst $30 million of work. The unnamed project receiving the carve out is the 116-year old Seelbach Hotel in downtown Louisville, whose Ohio-based owners announced plans last year for a major renovation and expansion — while also spending heavily on lobbying the legislature for tax

million mining facility in nearby Paducah. Under HB 230, cryptocurrency mining companies would be exempt from paying a sales-and-use tax on the voluminous electricity they consume. A Legislative Research Commission fi scal note for the bill estimated this tax break could amount to $1 million annually, though it was also unknowable based on how many mining facilities would actually set up shop in Kentucky. Senate Bill 255 provides a sales tax exemption for a company’s purchase of equipment needed to construct a cryptocurrency mining facility — adding this provision to the state’s clean energy tax incentive program for projects using coal carbon capture, alternative fuels, solar, wind, hydro and methane technologies. Renaming the incentive program for “energy-related business” instead of energy independence, the legislation added that its purpose was to “become a national leader in emerging industries which use substantial amounts of energy” and increase “the usage of electricity in areas which have an abundant supply due to the loss of manufacturing businesses across the state.” While there was no fi scal note prepared for SB 255, an LRC note for a previous version of HB 230 with a sales tax exemption for purchasing crypto mining equipment estimated the tax break could reach $8 million annually. Bailey describes the industry as speculative and volatile, noting that crypto mining facilities employ very few people and will receive a more generous sales tax exemption than high-energyusing manufacturers employing far more workers. Core Scientifi c — with a corporate headquarters in Washington, D.C., and cryptomining operations in Kentucky, North Dakota, North Carolina and Georgia — spent $15,000 on legislative lobbyists to push both bills in the session.

Long day in the garden? Try this simple roasted chicken recipe. Easy baked chicken with yogurt, garlic, mayonnaise and Parmesan

Easy baked chicken with yogurt, garlic, mayonnaise and Parmesan works well for a busy summer evening.

Chicken thighs or breasts? Thighs are more moist and more “forgiving” if you overcook them a bit. Breasts are leaner, and cook faster. Greek yogurt is best here, since it’s thicker, with more protein than regular yogurt. But if all you have is regular yogurt, go ahead with it.

RITA HEIKENFELD

Ingredients

FOR THE ENQUIRER

4 boneless, skinless, chicken thighs or breasts (I used thighs), about 2 pounds Salt and pepper to taste (I used 2 teaspoons salt and 1⁄ 2 teaspoon pepper) 1 nice teaspoon garlic powder ⁄ 3 cup each: real mayonnaise and plain Greek yogurt

1 cup chicken broth

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

This week has been unusually busy here on my little patch of heaven. I’ve planted two rows of cutting fl ower seeds in the vegetable garden. They’re the fi rst two rows in the garden and when all the fl owers are blooming, it’s a lovely sight. I’ll share photos when that happens.

We still have to plant some summer and winter squash, gourds, cucumbers and pumpkins. Hopefully that will be accomplished later this week. We’re eating supper a lot later, too. These long days in the gardens make it easy for me to forget about the time. That’s why I’m inclined to use simple recipes like the one I’m sharing today. Maybe you’ve been extra busy, too, so I hope you try and like this roasted chicken as much as we do. The recipe calls for 1 cup of chicken broth. The rest of the broth can be added to the cooking water for a side of cooked rice, which goes along nicely.

1 cup shredded Parmesan or Romano cheese Parsley for garnish (optional) Instructions Preheat oven to 375. Spray a casserole dish large enough to hold the chicken Sprinkle both sides of chicken with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Lay in single layer in casserole. Whisk mayonnaise and yogurt together and spread evenly on chicken. Sprinkle with 3⁄ 4 cup cheese.

Update on no-knead Italian bread for week of May 10 Weather does make a difference! Remember the no-knead Italian bread recipe I shared a few weeks ago? The weather was cool and humidity was low. Well, I made it again today when heat and humidity was high. I had to add the full 6 cups of flour that the recipe called for plus more than usual flour when rolling the bread out.

High humidity translates into requiring more flour when working with bread dough. Flour absorbs moisture from the air. Because it was hot, the dough rose a lot faster, too. Instead of the usual hour that it takes for the ﬁ rst rise, the dough was ready in about 40 minutes. And the second rise took only 20 minutes, not 30! So anyway, I just wanted to give you a heads up on that

Carefully pour broth around bottom of chicken. Roast until internal temperature reaches 160, about 30 minutes or so. Check at about 25 minutes. If you want chicken to be more golden brown on top, run it under broiler for a minute or so. To serve: sprinkle with rest of cheese and parsley.

care. It appears to be working. Only 24% of those who completed both the jail and aftercare program have been rearrested and jailed after three years, said John Clancy, director of strategic partnerships at the Life Learning Center, a focal point of the aftercare program. That compares to 68% recidivism after three years nationally, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

On the inside We repeat: The Kenton County jail is still a jail. The program participants are still inmates, though Merrick tends to call them “patients” in conversation. There are jail standards in place for every inmate in the recovery dorms: When to get up, eat, sleep, shower and what to wear (jail uniforms) are among them. But this is not standard incarceration. Even its staff is atypical. Take David Wray. On one Monday in March, the 6foot-4, uniformed Wray walks to the front of the men’s dorm (housing 67 inmates that day, he notes) and climbs onto the raised, circular deputy’s station, giving him a clear vantage point to all corners of the room. Wray, a fully trained deputy, takes this role twice a week. And as a deputy he has a multitude of duties: ensuring safety for visitors and the men, preparing inmates for court, searching them as they come and go, sometimes transporting inmates from the jail to court and back. Get to know him even a little and you’ll learn he is an avid collector of retro comic book paraphernalia. Listen to inmates speak with him, and you’ll hear them call him – not Deputy Wray, not Offi cer Wray – “Dave.” Because for three days a week Wray trades the deputy’s uniform for street clothes. And when he’s on duty those days he’s working as an addiction counselor, maybe leading a group, maybe working with an inmate one-on-one. “I like what I do,” he says. Wray is one of two deputy-slashcounselors in the program. Also on the team are two reentry specialists, with 10 years and 20 years of sobriety themselves. Their job: Help prepare inmates for life outside the jail. The staff also includes a population management specialist and three interns from Northern Kentucky University, all studying not criminal justice but social work. Leading them is Bethany Ball, Merrick’s associate director of Addiction Services, who, like him, has social work degrees and is a certifi ed drug and alcohol addiction counselor. The staff makeup is deliberate. And it’s just what people with substance-use disorder need, says Lindsey Vuolo, vice president of Health Law and Policy for the Partnership to End Addiction, a national nonprofi t dedicated to transforming how the United States addresses addiction. “It is really important for jails and prisons to include medical professionals and individuals with lived experiences when designing this type of program,” Vuolo said, citing research from the National Council for Behavioral Health. The movies, the pizza time, group meetings, the meditation sessions that some inmates invite others to do, are also imperative, Vuolo says. “These types of social gatherings – even though they are taking place in jails – allow them to be connected to one another. And those connections and support are really critical for their recovery.” All along, behind the scenes, the University of Kentucky Center on Drug and Alcohol Research tracks and evaluates the Kenton County treatment plan. Its December 2020 report says the program’s staff and health resources has “created this self-worth” among inmates, who know “they’re worth it, they’re valued.” One afternoon early in April, Ball leads a class about preparing for jail release and preventing relapse. Pacing in the center of the U-shaped tables where her students sit, Ball asks the men if they’re ready for the outside world. And how they’ll handle it. Luke Dorger, 24, says he plans to stay on his medication and attend group meetings for people with addiction for support. “I don’t want to end up here again,” he explains. “And I don’t want to end up dead.” In and out of jail numerous times, Dorger is confi dent it will be diff erent for him this time. He’s getting Sublocade, an injectable version of Suboxone, a medication for opioid use disorder. “It blocks some cravings for me,” he says. Before, “I’d wake up in the middle of the night craving some dope. I believe it’s helping me a lot. I’m not worried about going home and getting high.”

Men participate in a class in the Kenton County Detention Center on March 2. The men are part of a voluntary Strong Start Comprehensive Opioid Response with 12 Steps and Reentry. After they graduate, which takes about three months, they begin aftercare at the Life Learning Center in Covington. PHOTOS BY LIZ DUFOUR/THE ENQUIRER

Danny Woods, 62, does custodial work at the Life Learning Center in Covington on April 15. It's all part of getting his life back. The former golf pro became addicted to opiates after knee surgeries in the mid-1990s. After being in and out of jail, he participated in the Strong Start Comprehensive Opioid Response with 12 Steps and Reentry program in the Kenton County Detention Center.

When an inmate is released from the Strong Start Comprehensive Opioid Response with 12 Steps and Reentry from the Kenton County Detention Center, their ﬁ rst stop is the Life Learning Center in Covington. There, they get clothing, help ﬁ nding a job, a backpack full of essentials and the start of services.

Inmates look to Bethany Ball, who has degrees in social work and is certiﬁ ed as a drug and alcohol addiction counselor, during a session March 25 at the Kenton County Detention Center. The inmates will do three months of jail treatment, and many will follow up with three months of aftercare.

Entering aftercare

janitor at the center now. On a break from sweeping, Woods opens his wallet and pulls out an array of new cards: bus pass, health insurance, food debit. (Clients can also get help attaining state IDs, Social Security cards or birth certifi cates.) “I pick up my glasses next week,” he mentions. Medicaid will pay for an exam and a pair of glasses, and the Life Learning Center helps clients enroll for public insurance. But the center also off ers a voucher for a pair of glasses at LensCrafters, which won’t take Medicaid but offers a wider selection of frames. It’s another eff ort to make people feel valued, Clancy says.

Three weeks later, on April 15, Dorger, in khakis, a T-shirt and medical mask, stands relaxed, hands in his pockets, at the Life Learning Center in Covington. It is the center from which a whole array of aftercare extends, far beyond the jail doors, and even beyond its own doors. The Life Learning Center serves not only these former inmates but others who struggle to fi nd jobs and homes and sustainability. And it has more than 100 community partners that help. The fi rst step for people who’ve left the jail, though, is getting there. Not everyone needs help from the Life Learning Center, but for released inmates who do, the jail Addiction Services’ staff used to tell them to go to the center. Not everyone did. Now, someone from the addiction services team drives those released to the center and walks inside with them. When Dorger arrived, the staff set up a connection for him to Journey Recovery Center, a St. Elizabeth Healthcare provider of medication-assisted treatment – rather than leaving it to him to fi nd continued treatment. Dorger’s Life Learning Center classes didn’t start until May. He dropped in daily anyway, as encouraged. On April 15, he worked out at an on-site fi tness center. He used a computer. He stopped in the cafeteria, which off ers free food and beverages for clients. The access to these and other amenities is designed to help clients keep healthfully occupied as they restart their lives outside the jail. Because it’s hard to stay drug-free without structure. The same day, Daniel Woods, 62 and a 25-year-suff erer of opioid addiction, is glowing about the help he’s received from the beginning. “They gave me a duff el bag with sheets and blankets and towels and socks and underwear.” Woods was off ered a part-time job while he goes through life skills classes. He is a

Real help As Addiction Services and Life Learning Center staff s learn obstacles to someone’s sustained recovery, they forge new paths. There’s help with oral care because long-term use of crystal meth can cause severe tooth decay and gum disease. “We have partners that will off er our candidates signifi cantly decreased priced services for dentures,” Clancy says. No place to live? Jail grant funding covers six weeks of rent-free living while the client adjusts to life after release. The jail and Life Learning Center partner with recovery housing providers that let residents use medication for their addiction disorder. The Life Learning Center provides job-readiness skills and job-fi nding help. But a lot of former inmates have tattooed faces and hands – which turns off some employers. That’s where Tattoo Removal Ink, Inc. comes in. The business was given free space at the center and removes the tattoos free of charge for clients. Does work require (expensive) work boots?

Learning Center closet. Childcare is oﬀ ered on location while clients complete required classes. And once they graduate, they are connected with Learning Grove, an early childhood education system in Greater Cincinnati that takes payments on a sliding scale based on a family’s income. And what if work is far from the nearest bus stop? No worries: Dozens of used bicycles are donated to the Life Learning Center and repaired so they’re ready to roll out with clients. “We want them to have everything they need,” Clancy says, “so they can focus on their own personal transformational change.” Clients praise the program to the UK evaluators. “The aftercare,” said one, “really does put wind under your wings.”

So what’s the cost? Since the Kenton County-Hazelden Betty Ford jail program’s inception, about $4.43 million in federal, state and local dollars has been awarded to cover patients’ care, records show. The U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and Kentucky Opioid Response Eff ort are primary funders of medication treatment for inmates. The U.S. Department of Justice and the Kentucky Department of Corrections also cover program costs. Merrick isn’t worried about funding disappearing. More and more these days, state and federal legislators are considering and appropriating money for treatment in jails and prisons. The idea is: No more revolving door. Inmates who get medical help are less likely to repeat jail stays, which are costly. One legislative proposal, sponsored by U.S. Sen. Rob Portman, is to use U.S. Department of Justice grants to help state and local governments develop, implement or expand medication assisted treatment. The Kenton County treatment plan is saving taxpayers money, offi cials say. Here’s how: A year of incarceration costs about $24,000 for one person. Almost every inmate in the treatment program is spared a conviction likely to yield an 18-month jail sentence. The inmate is jailed instead for 90 days – which yields 15 months not served. That 15 months would cost $30,000 if served in jail. Merrick’s records show that about 450 graduates have gone through women’s and men’s programs each year. That’s $13.5 million saved every year, he says. Beyond that: Without evidencebased treatment in jail, it’s likely inmates with opioid use disorder will relapse after release. And if they don’t overdose and die, it’s likely they’ll be arrested again and return for more jail stays. For Ball and her staff , it’s not just about the dollars, though. “We are trying to address the areas that we see people struggling with consistently, especially those that aren’t always addressed: culture, mental health, trauma, childhood trauma,” she says. “We are committed to not just saving lives, but helping to show that there is a life worth living and they are worthy of that life.”

Nothing is foolproof Not everyone is saved. Two clients in 2018 vanished from the Life Learning Center’s classes and died from overdose “It is a tragic loss that we feel to our very core,” Merrick says. Each death triggered strings of texts and emails, phone calls and meetings among the program’s key staﬀ . “There’s just this immediate response where we evaluate the level of care,” Merrick says. “We look for our loopholes and gaps. What we could’ve done so that this person’s life wasn’t lost in vain.” That theme of ﬂ exibility, that “ability to adapt as new circumstances and challenges arise,” say UK evaluators in their report, “will facilitate continued successes in the years to come.”

The other side In March, Merrick opened his work email and saw a message from former client Lindsey Ober. Now 34 and a mom living in Hebron, Ober went through the jail-based treatment and aftercare program in 2019 and graduated in 2020. It was in jail that she decided to enter the voluntary treatment and take Suboxone for her opioid use disorder. She has been drug-free ever since. And she wants to share her experiences to help others. “I said, hey, I would love to come and work with you,” Ober recalls telling Merrick by email. He advised her to enroll in classes at Northern Kentucky University to become a certiﬁ ed peer support specialist. Ober expects to graduate in July. “Then I’m going to get with Jason,” she says. Will Merrick ﬁ nd a place for her? It will take discussion and rearranging and planning. It will require trying something new. But Merrick responds easily: “Yes.” He likes new.

Ryle baseball program honors Class of 2020 players in unique way James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A simple but kind act by the Ryle High School baseball program has become viral. Joseph Aylor, the head coach of the Ryle baseball team, came up with an idea to honor the program’s Class of 2020 players, who did not get to play

last season because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Aylor invited the eight seniors from the 2020 team to sign a baseball, which was later buried under home plate during recent renovations to the ﬁ eld. The reasoning, as noted on a plaque to commemorate the occasion, was so “They will forever be a part of every run scored

at Ryle High school.” The plaque was recently placed on the fence behind home plate. A tweet posted by Aylor May 23 drew nearly 44,000 likes and 2,600 retweets within 48 hours. The picture also gained a lot of interest on Reddit. The seniors are Wyatt Caldwell, Anthony Coﬀ ee, Brock Cordrey, Colby

Haines, David Kennicott, Reece Oney, Alex Pergram and Spencer Strunk. Haines is y on the roster with the Cincinnati Bearcats and Kennicott plays for Division I Austin Peay Aylor took over the program after the 2019 season from Pat Roesel, who had been head coach since Ryle opened in 1992.

Notre Dame, Covington Latin celebrate regional tennis titles James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Kentucky Ninth Region tennis tournament concluded May 21 with some familiar names winning championships but also some new faces earning state tournament berths. Covington Catholic and Notre Dame kept their stranglehold on the team championships. Notre Dame had clinched the team title after the semifi nal round but picked up the doubles championship on May 21. Senior Lauren Janzaruk and sophomore Taylor Meenach won the title over teammates Samantha Bailey and Hailey Fullenkamp, 7-6, 6-4. “It was so exciting,” Janzaruk said. “We had a really close match with our friends. We buckled down and realized we had to make shots. We calmed down our nerves.” Playing teammates wasn’t more stressful, they said. “You have to block out that they’re your teammates and get the job done,” Meenach said. “Communication, we play well together and understand each other.” Both NDA teams will advance to the state tournament June 1-3 in Lexington. They will be joined by the teams they defeated in the semifi nals: Allyse Rassenfoss and Natalie Elleman of Conner and Elizabeth Wintersheimer and Mehr Brar of Beechwood. Notre Dame’s Martine Hue, who lost in the singles semifi nals, also qualifi ed for state and helped the Pandas win the team championship. “This team has been such an enjoyable team to work with,” said NDA head coach Lyndsey Maynard. “They work hard, they’re very coachable. We have a great group of leaders. Their team camaraderie has been great. They want to make up for not getting to play last year.” Maynard believes at least one of her doubles teams will be seeded in the state tourney. The last Ninth Region doubles champions, from Ryle, won the state title in 2019. “Ability-wise they’re pretty close,” Maynard said. “It just comes down to how many good doubles teams are out there. The girls like it. The junior tournaments are a lot of singles so they like being part of a team in these tournaments, and hopefully, they can make a run.” Covington Latin sophomore Sakurako “Sara” Watanabe outlasted Cooper senior Ellie Zureick 6-4, 7-5 to win her fi rst singles regional title. They had met in the regional fi nal in 2018 and 2019,

with Zureick, who signed with Division I Marist College this week, winning both of them. Watanabe rallied from 4-1 defi cits in both sets and joins her brother Kazuhide as state qualifi ers after he lost in the singles fi nal. Beechwood senior Katherine Taylor joins them and NDA’s Hue as state qualifi ers. Taylor helped the Tigers fi nish as regional runner-up in the team standings.

‘TAKE A CHANCE AT LIFE’ Former wide receiver Ochocinco ready for his boxing debut

Mike Jones USA TODAY USA TODAY NETWORK

To hear Chad Johnson tell it, he didn’t choose this latest adventure. The adventure found Johnson, and the retired All-Pro wide receiver, known alternately as “Ochocinco,” simply accepted. That’s how things often work out for Johnson, who navigates his way through this thing called life with his eyes peeled and mind open to enriching experiences. Opportunities just seem to fall in his lap. This latest invitation came in the form of a phone call from boxer Floyd Mayweather, who wanted to know if Johnson had interest in fi ghting on the undercard of Mayweather’s June 6 bout with YouTube personality Logan Paul. “It’s an experience I’ve always wanted to experience all these years,” the 43year-old Johnson, who last played in the NFL in 2011, told USA TODAY Sports. “I just never had the opportunity to do it. “But look at this: 2021, get the call from Floyd, ‘You want to move around the ring a little bit?’ ‘You’re (expletive) right! What is the date?’ I just wanted to make sure I had enough time to prepare. I haven’t stopped moving around since I played football. I stayed moving because I have to be on point for my kids so I can show them how it’s supposed to look. It’s going to be fun.” Johnson will square off with 33-yearold former NFL hopeful-turned-bareknuckle-fi ghter Brian Maxwell. The entire event will air as a pay per view event on Showtime. Boxing is just the latest post-NFL venture that Johnson has pursued. There was the brief stint in the Canadian Football League, competing on “Dancing with the Stars,” a WWE appearance, a 1.5-second ride on a 1,500pound bull on the PBR circuit, and even a nine-game pro soccer career. So why not add boxing to the list? “The opportunity presented itself, and I couldn’t pass it up,” Johnson explained. “There are a lot of things in life that happen that you can do one time, and you can say, ‘You know what, I did it.’ “There’s 98% of the population that wouldn’t dare do it out of fear of embarrassment, out of fear of losing. But I’ve always been one who’s taken chances in all that I do. It’s me and my nature and who I am. But when I do something, I lock in, I focus and I put my all into it, and 98% of the time, I come out OK.” Locking in has consisted of training in Houston with the Charlo twins – Jermall (the undefeated and current WBC middleweight champ) and Jermell (the

WBC, WBA and IBF uniﬁ ed super welterweight champ). Johnson has used boxing as part of his training regimen both during and after his football career. But he said that casual introduction to the sport feels worthless compared to physical demands of training with the Charlos and the complexity of technical skills he is trying to absorb. “It’s not helping because it’s too much elite talent at once,” Johnson said. “Obviously, being here in Houston and training with the Charlo twins and their sparring partners, they’re at a level where I would have to start all over at 4 years old. “But for me, I have a boxing match coming up and for me and my training is going right with the best of the best. There’s a huge gap of years and work and tutelage that I would need to be able to compete on their level. But it’s what I need to be able to be ready for June 6. I have to get in with the twins, get my ass whooped, get lumped up, watch the ﬁ lm with them, correct the mistakes and then go back to sparring the next day.” The 6-foot, 205-pound Maxwell has a background in combat sports (owning a 3-2 record), so Johnson (6-1, 192) could

fi nd himself at a disadvantage. Another recent pro athlete who attempted to cross over into boxing, former NBA star Nate Robinson, faced Logan Paul’s brother, Jake, last fall and got knocked out in the second round. But Johnson insists that the risk of knockout or injury doesn’t concern him. “I got knocked out by Ray Lewis. I got knocked out by Brian Russell. I’ve been hit, man,” Johnson said referring to blows on the football fi eld. “Everything you do in life is risky. But it’s one I’m willing to take. I took a risk every Sunday at 1 o’clock. The risk, my life was on the line every play. “Now, I’m in a combat sport. My life again is on the line. I’m used to being under that type of pressure. It’s just a diff erent environment with a diff erent skill set and my competitive nature is going to kick in. Survival is going to kick in. it’s instinct. Taking everything I’ve learned and channeling that in a controlled environment.. Is it easy? No. Boxing is probably the hardest thing to learn and master. But that’s OK.” Johnson wants to win. But his mission includes two other goals: entertain, and most importantly, inspire. “I hope more people start living and

get out of their comfort zone and start trying new (stuff ),” he explained. “It’s OK. Take a chance. Send that girl that DM. It’s OK. Take a chance at life. Do something diff erent. Everyone loves to be in that comfort zone. Everyone likes to play it safe. “I don’t mind losing at what I do in life. There’s ups and downs. Let’s go to work.” Johnson believes that the long hours logged in preparation coupled with natural survival skills will carry him versus Maxwell. But even if things don’t play out as favorably as he hopes, he’s fi ne with that. It’s the payoff – the experience itself – that drives Johnson. Ochocinco fi nds himself on the cusp of checking off yet another item on his extensive bucket list. In the process, he does indeed off er a valuable example of an admirable approach to life: eschew comfort zones, embrace the unknown, prepare with goals in mind. As he said, just start living.

KHSAA updates guidance on do-overs James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

With students in Kentucky taking advantage of the “do-over” bill that will allow them to retake or supplement classes taken during the 2020-21 school year, the NCAA has provided guidance and warnings about potential eligibility issues. The Kentucky High School Athletic Association shared these updates to give guidance for students looking to add a year to their athletic eligibility due to the new law, called Senate Bill 128 (SB128). “The impact of repeating a year is highly variable depending on a student’s academic class and record; however, there could be a detrimental eﬀ ect on a student’s ability to meet Division I core-course requirements in some circumstances,” the NCAA wrote. The NCAA said freshmen and sophomores are at particular risk regarding the Division I requirement of completing 10 core-course units before starting the seventh semester of high school. The KHSAA wrote that for students initially enrolling full time in college during the 2021-22 or 2022-23 academic years, additional ﬂ exibility has been provided due to COVID-19.

“The impact of repeating a year is highly variable depending on a student’s academic class and record; however, there could be a detrimental eﬀ ect on a student’s ability to meet Division I core-course requirements in some circumstances… Academic eligibility in NCAA Division II or III should not be impacted.” The KHSAA updated its guidance in this document, which provides links to other key information. Generally, NCAA legislation permits students to continue participating in their sport one year after their expected high school graduation date without impacting their NCAA eligibility. SB128 was signed into law by Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear on March 24. It is called the Supplemental School Year Program (“SSYP”). This emergency legislation allows any K-12 student enrolled during the 2020-21 school year to use the 2021-22 school year as a supplemental year to retake or supplement courses the student already has taken. Students had to submit requests to their local board of education by May 1, and the local board has until June 1 to decide whether to accept the requests. The boards are required to do “all or nothing,” approving or rejecting the en-

tire group of students who request the extra year. The local board must submit its implementation plan, along with any requests for regulatory waivers, to the Kentucky Board of Education (KBE) by June 16. Each member school will then report to the KHSAA the names of students impacted by this decision. The KHSAA will not be permitted to release the names of specifi c students. Several Northern Kentucky school districts have not announced whether they will allow SB128 to be enacted in their districts. So far, the Boone and Kenton county school districts along with the Beechwood independent district, are the only Northern Kentucky districts on record as approving SB128. Districts that have declined to participate in the law include Fort Thomas and the Diocese of Covington, which governs most of the private schools in Northern Kentucky. The highest profi le student that this aff ects so far is Beechwood senior Cameron Hergott, who announced last week that he will reclassify to the Class of 2022 and stay at Beechwood. Hergott, a three-year starter at quarterback, led the team to state champi-

onships in 2018 and 2020. He was named Mr. Football this year, winning the long-running Associated Press honor of that name, plus the new award given by the Kentucky Football Coaches Association. Despite his on-fi eld success, Hergott didn’t start to get off ers until after winning the 2A state title in December. He accepted a preferred walk-on off er from the University of Akron earlier this year, but wants to get a better chance at a full scholarship. Hergott has said that he did not get to attend college football camps last summer, and he wants to take advantage of those opportunities. He is at least the secondt senior in Kentucky to announce his return to school for that reason. Isaac Dixon, a senior standout at perennial eastern Kentucky power Belfry, signed as a preferred walk-on with West Virginia of the Big-12 Conference, but will return to Belfry this fall. At least two other Northern Kentucky football players have announced they will reclassify. Hergott’s teammate Xavier Campbell, a current sophomore at Beechwood, will reclassify to the Class of 2024. Cooper senior Xavier Smith will reclassify to the Class of 2022 and return to the Jaguars this fall.

CovCath teammate Jackson Poulos and Highlands senior Peter Laskey will also advance to the state tournament after losing in the semiﬁ nals. CovCath won the doubles title with Ryan Bosch and Andrew Kennedy, who

beat Eli Back and Eli Hornsby of Highlands in the ﬁ nal. Other state qualiﬁ ers were eighth-graders Kalei Christensen and Alex Yeager of Holy Cross, and Joey Case and Matthew Marlette of Villa Madonna.

Park Hills celebrates fallen heroes with an innovative salute In the City of Park Hills, Kentucky, the pandemic may have stopped the traditional Memorial Day Parade, but honoring their fallen local veterans marches on through a video presentation. Traditionally, the Park Hills Parade commemorates at least one local veteran who sacrifi ced everything for our freedoms. This year, the Park Hills veterans who died in combat are being commemorated with banners lining the Dixie Highway, which recognize their military service. In 2021, Park Hills honors these seven residents of Park Hills who so bravely and valiantly gave their lives for our freedom: h Second Lieutenant John Henry Wiechman, U.S. Marine Corps, 1920-1942 h Private Fred Henry Kluemper, U.S. Army, 1910-1941 h Private Allen G.

As the parade has always done, the 2021 video similarly honors these veterans. “Even though it’s not an in-person gathering, we’re still coming together to recognize our fallen Park Hills military veterans,” says Mr. David Schlothauer, who has led the parade and ceremonies team for an impressive 45 years. The virtual approach began last year, with a team of creative and persistent residents, who took it upon themselves to not give up on saluting their heroes, despite the pandemic. This innovative spirit continues into 2021, with another fi lming in the streets of Park Hills, featuring a fl ag-raising ceremony, local musicians, city offi cials, students, and residents waving from their front yards. The video also recognizes two students for their essays on the true meaning of Memorial Day. In fi rst place is Sylvia Fasciotto in 5th grade at Ft. Wright Elementary, who wrote a 200 word poem. In second place, Emilie Bowman at St. Agnes Elementary. The Park Hills Memorial Day Celebration video was again,

Regular physical activity can improve your mental health Most of us know that physical activity provides numerous physical benefi ts to our bodies, but a lesser-known benefi t of physical activity is that it also improves our mental health. Physical activity promotes positive changes in your brain including neural growth, reduced infl ammation and new activity patterns that promote calmness and improved wellbeing. During exercise, the brain releases endorphins, which are chemicals that can help improve your mood and raise your spirits. Physical activity can also give you a break from your daily worries, as it allows you to focus on something else. Research has shown that regular physical activity, which is 150 minutes of moderate-tovigorous movement each week for adults and 60 minutes each day for children, can improve brain function. Improved brain function occurs regardless of your age, ability, ethnicity, shape and size. Some of these results occur immediately after one workout and include reduced short-term anxiety, improved sleep and improved cognitive function. Improved cognitive function can result in better academic performance for students, including improved test taking

skills and higher grades. Research has also shown that regular physical activity reduces the risk of depression and improves the moods of young people between the ages of 6 and 17. In adults, physical activity can speed up brain processing, improve memory and lead to a higher quality of life. As physical activity becomes a regular part of your daily routine, you can experience long-term mental health beneﬁ ts including reduced anxiety, lower stress levels, higher self-esteem, deeper sleep, stronger planning and organization skills, and more control over your emotions and behaviors. Harvard University researchers found that when people increase their physical activity to 35 minutes a day, they have a reduced risk of depression, even if they have a genetic predisposition to the condition. Physical activity has also shown to reduce the risk of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease. If you have not worked out in a while and are ready to start adding physical activity into your day, you may want to consult a medical professional before beginning. However, most people can achieve moderate intensity exercise, which would include brisk walking, with few adverse issues. If 150 minutes each week seems like a lot, you can break up the 150 minutes into segments as small as 10 minutes to help you work physical activity into your day. Normal household chores like mowing the grass and vacuuming count toward your weekly physical activity goals. Kate Thompson, Campbell County Cooperative Extension Service Thompson

Bagging fruit for disease and insect management In Kentucky, pest management in home orchards can be challenging, and fungicide and insecticide applications are often necessary for management of certain pests. Fruit bagging, however, can eliminate certain sprays by physically protecting fruit during development. This method can be used by backyard fruit growers and smallscale commercial producers. Bagging takes just 30 seconds per fruit or fruit cluster. Crops such as apples, peaches, and grapes are ideal candidates for bagging. This method is commonly used for apple to decrease damage from diseases such as apple scab, sooty blotch/ﬂ y speck, and fruit rots and from insects such as stink bugs, coddling moth, plum curculio, San Jose scale, and rosy

apple aphid. The following provides howto information for bagging fruit. Steps to fruit bagging Fruit should be bagged when they are in the early development stage. Apples: Cover fruit with bags when fruit are approximately ¾ inch in diameter. Peaches: Cover fruit with bags when fruit are approximately ¾ inch in diameter. Grapes: Cover fruit with bags when grapes are pea sized. Thin fruit to one fruit per cluster prior to applying the bag. One insecticide spray should be used prior to bagging. Cover individual fruit with bag type of choice and attach around the branch or stem. Oriental, Clemson, and paper lunch bags have a slit for attaching around the branch or stem. These bags should be pleated together and secured with a wire or twist tie. Plastic bags should be zipped closed and secured with staples. Clemson and paper bags should be removed from apple and peach three weeks before harvest so fruit color properly. Oriental fruit bags have a double layer: outer paper layer should be removed three weeks before harvest, while inner waxed paper layer should be left until harvest. Bags may remain on grape clusters until harvest. Several types of bags can be used to protect fruit from diseases and insects. h Oriental Fruit Bags (Japanese Fruit Bags) – These commercially available bags feature a double layer of paper and waxed paper, a pre-cut slit at the top, and a built-in wire. The approximate cost is $0.35 per bag. h Clemson Fruit Bags – These bags are made of a single layer of paper, and they have a pre-cut slit and built-in wire. The approximate cost is $0.10 per bag. h Plastic freezer bag (Figure 1) – This method uses plastic freezer bags with the bottom corners cut oﬀ to allow for condensation drainage. Freezer bags are more resilient than storage bags. The approximate cost is $0.10 per bag. h Paper Lunch Bag – This method uses white or brown paper lunch bags cut to 5 to 6 inches in length with a 2-to-3inch slit cut down one side. Twist ties are used to secure bags. The approximate cost is $0.05 per bag. DJ Scully is the Campbell County Natural Resources and Environmental Management Agent. Scully

Mussels in the Classroom and River Explorer set to resume growth in fall Whether they’re catching fi sh in a local waterway or observing fascinating freshwater animals without ever having to leave their classroom, students who participate in Ohio River Foundation’s education programs get a hands-on STEM learning experience they’ll remember. This fall, Ohio River Foundation (ORF) will again off er both of its education programs. Mussels in the Classroom (MIC), the only program of its kind, has served 5,000 students in the Greater Cincinnati, Greater Columbus and Greater Lexington areas since its inception in 2017. It kicks off with an inperson or virtual visit by an ORF educator, who describes the freshwater mussels’ unusual characteristics and significance to their ecosystems. Although they clean water, acting as a natural fi lter for our waterways, most people know little about these important animals. Many species are threatened or endangered. Following the educator visit, mussels remain in the classroom for two weeks so students can care for and study them. “We hope students come away with not only a better understanding of complex ecosystems, but also an appreciation for freshwater mussels,” said Rich Cogen, ORF’s executive director. “Considering that many mussel species are threatened or endangered, it’s critical for the public to understand the important role they fi ll.” Enhancing the MIC program is a new environmental literacy off ering, “Russell the Mussel.” He’s a freshwater mussel not unlike those that inhabit the creeks, streams and rivers of the Ohio River watershed. Russell is a character in a Virginia Tech/U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service children’s book that bears his name. ORF spearheaded eff orts to resurrect the book, which was previously out of print. The nonprofi t now distributes copies as part of the MIC program. Having a leave-behind benefi ts students who are reading/writing learners and reinforces the program’s themes. MIC is open to grades K-12, and appli-

Feeding mussels is one of the many activities that engage students during the Mussels in the Classroom program. PROVIDED

cations are accepted on a rolling basis on the program’s web page. Multiple classes and whole grades can take part in this enrichment experience. Curriculum coordinators can call 513-460-3365 for more information. In addition to MIC, ORF off ers its popular River Explorer program in Greater Cincinnati and Columbus. The inquiry-based fi eld trips let students be junior scientists for a day as they learn about the ecology and importance of the Ohio River and its watershed at area creeks, streams and rivers. Open to grades four through 12, River Explorer includes three hands-on stations: 1) Catching, examining and identifying fi sh; 2) Collecting and identifying macroinvertebrates; and 3) River

shutters, shades & blinds

chemistry (grades six through 12) or water use and the water cycle (grades four and fi ve). All but the youngest students also take part in habitat assessments as part of their day. The River Explorer program is off ered in September, October, April and May. Greater Cincinnati fi eld trips take place at Nisbet Park and Lake Isabella Park in Loveland; Sycamore Park in Batavia; Sharon Woods Park in Sharonville; Pioneer Park in Covington; and Guilford Covered Bridge Park in Guildford, Indiana.. Registration for fall River Explorer fi eld trips is open through Aug. 1 or until all spots are full. More than 45,000 students have participated in River Explorer to date.

Support for ORF education programs is provided by the Charles Dater Foundation, Elsa Heisel Sule Foundation, Toyota, Inc., The Gannett Foundation – Community Thrives, Honda Manufacturing, International Paper, The Gardner Family Foundation, PNC Charitable Trusts, Louise Taft Semple Foundation, and Valvoline, Inc. Ohio River Foundation (ORF) is dedicated to protecting and improving the water quality and ecology of the Ohio River and all waters in its 11-state watershed. ORF works towards these goals through environmental education, conservation and advocacy activities. For more information, visit www. ohioriverfdn.org. Rich Cogen, Ohio River Foundation
