BRINGING THE HORRORS OF THE HOLOCAUST HOME Museum is in Union Terminal, where survivors arrived Max Londberg Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Delaney Green traced colorful wires stretched across a map of the world, marking the journey Jews took away from the horrors of the Holocaust to Cincinnati.

She stood in the very same rotunda in Cincinnati’s Union Terminal that served as the entry point to a new life for those very same persecuted people.

And she heard the persecuted’s recorded voices asking her if she would have had the courage to help them, had she been alive back then.

Delaney, an eighth grader at St. Joseph Elementary School in Cold Spring, visited the Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust and Humanity Center along with her classmates on a recent school day. Her school’s visit coincides with a critical juncture for educating young people about one of the worst atrocities in modern history.

Sarah Weiss, the CEO of the center, told The Enquirer that with increasing anti-Semitism, Holocaust museums are as important today as they’ve ever been. She also pointed to a recent survey that, for the first time, identified a link between Holocaust museum visits and better awareness and sentiments toward Jewish people and their history.

Weiss said more than 200 survivors still live in the Cincinnati region, and many first saw the city from Union Terminal after arriving by train. Their accounts and stories displayed throughout the center provide a degree of vividness to the space.

“It gives students a facet to the history that seems so distant,” Weiss said.

A native Cincinnatian is being featured in the new Disney+ documentary series “One Day at Disney.”

Kristina Dewberry, who grew up in Sycamore Township and went to Indian Hill High School, is one of 52 people that will be featured in short-form episodes about what it’s like to work at the Walt Disney Company.

Dewberry is currently a construction manager with Walt Disney Imagineering. But she got her start here in Cincinnati. She attended the University of Cincinnati, then Cincinnati State before graduating from Northern Kentucky University with a degree in construction management.

As of Dec. 31, 2018, approximately 1,106,919 women were employed in various occupation sectors of the construction industry. Women now make up 9.9 percent of the construction industry in the United States, according to the National Association of Women in Construction.

“It started with my father. He was Mr. Fix It around the house,” Dewberry said. “I was the oldest of three and I wasn’t going to let anyone tell me what I could and couldn’t do, and thankfully, my parents supported that.”

How Dewberry got her start at Disney After graduation, she began working for Turner Construction before moving to California. It wasn’t until she was laid off in 2009 that Dewberry decided to apply to work at Disney. She got the job. Her first project was the Disney Hotel renovation.

“But to be part of a very diverse and inclusive group here at Disney is great but I think the rest of the industry still has a ways to go.”

Disneyland is her official job-site, but at any time Dewberry is working on multiple projects.

Cheryl Hecht, 70, pulls up a display of her father, Holocaust survivor David Hochstein, at the Holocaust & Humanity Center.

Cheryl Hecht, a volunteer at the center, has spoken to groups of students about her father, David Hochstein.

Hochstein was born in Cologne, Germany. As a teen, his family and many other Polish Jews were expelled to a border town near Poland.

They lived in uncertainty there, as Poland moved to thwart the emigration of thousands of Jews.

So Hochstein’s father arranged for his son’s escape via the Kindertransport, a name for the effort to help thousands of Jewish children flee to Great Britain.

Hochstein was 15 years old then, and he never See HOLOCAUST, Page 2A

saw his parents again. They were presumed killed at Auschwitz, Hecht said.

Her father eventually made his way to Dayton, Ohio. His plight and escape are memorialized in the center.

Hecht carries on his memory in part by telling students about him, saying children learn best through stories.

“I always ask them if they have a sibling who’s 15, and if that person would be able to handle what my dad did,” Hecht said.

Americans who have visited a Holocaust museum are more likely to know basic facts about it, which in turn results in a better likelihood of holding a more positive opinion of Jews, according to a Pew survey.

The survey was made in 2019 but not published until late last month, shortly before the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

Weiss, the museum’s CEO, said the survey provided evidence of the importance of places like Cincinnati’s Holocaust and Humanity Center but also that more work must be done.

School districts located hours away plan field trips at the center, the only museum exclusively dedicated to the Holocaust in Ohio, Weiss said.

But she believes there is an opportunity for many more districts to schedule trips.

Nearly three in four school districts in the Cincinnati region engage with the museum, Weiss estimated, through museum visits or in other ways, such as traveling speakers or exhibits.

The center, which is funded by donations and grants, also offers transportation scholarships for schools with lowincome students.

Holocaust and other subjects at Taft IT High School in the West End, wrote by email that she first visited the Holocaust and Humanity Center with students last year.

Willins’ students react with a range of emotions upon learning that “it is humans, average people, that commit violent acts against humanity,” Willins wrote.

“As Holocaust educators, our task is to strip away these connotations of ‘othering’ the perpetrators and show their ‘averageness,’” Willins wrote. “...It also creates empathy for victimized people, allows students to hold a mirror up to

themselves, questions their choices, and commits the students to a lifetime of being empathetic upstanders.”

Committing oneself to act as an upstander, or someone who intervenes upon witnessing wrongdoing, is a theme that runs throughout the Holocaust and Humanity Center.

Jacob Luhn, one of Delaney’s St. Joseph classmates, said he enjoyed learning about people dedicated to “helping

our world in their own way.”

Delaney shared with The Enquirer a story appearing in the center that struck her. The story detailed how a non-Jewish woman helped hide a child separated from his parents.

Later, the family reunited and emigrated to the U.S., bringing along a wedding dress and few other belongings.

“If I was there,” Delaney said, “I’d be an upstander.”

‘He’s a pig:’ Deters says 20-year-old serial rape case solved using genealogy site Madeline Mitchell and Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

An accused serial rapist whose charges date back more than 20 years was indicted Feb. 11 after investigators used a genealogy website to identify him.

William Brian Blankenship, 55, of Southgate, Kentucky, was arrested Jan. 23 on a warrant out of Hamilton County, according to court records. He is being held in the Campbell County Jail facing multiple counts of rape, burglary, kidnapping and gross sexual imposition.

“He’s a pig, OK?” Hamilton County Prosecutor Joseph Deters said at a news conference Feb. 11. “He needs to go to jail for the rest of his life. He’s raping little girls, two of (whom were) 10 and 14. And the trauma that they’ve had to endure in their lives is beyond imagination.”

Blankenship is accused of assaulting two girls and a woman in the Mount Washington and Anderson Township areas between 1999 and 2001, Deters said.

The first incident occurred on July 25, 1999 when court documents say Blankenship attacked a woman in her apartment and raped her.

On Aug. 14, 2001, Blankenship took a

10-year-old girl out of the pop-up trailer in her driveway where she was sleeping with friends. He then carried her into an open field and raped her, Blankenship documents state.

Blankenship also is accused of raping a 14-year-old girl in her bedroom on Oct. 10, 2001, according to court documents.

‘I don’t believe he just stopped doing it.’

Blankenship’s most recent address is on North Street in Southgate, according to court records.

Deters said investigators believe he has been living in the Greater Cincinnati area ever since the incidents in Mount Washington and Anderson Township, although no other rape cases in those neighborhoods have been connected to Blankenship.

“I just can’t believe he stopped,” Deters said.

In 2018, Blankenship was charged with domestic violence in an incident involving a woman he lived with. Court documents describe him as “very intoxicated” the evening of April 15, 2018.

Officers had earlier gone to the home for

an alleged incident but didn’t find anything.

Later, when the woman got out of the shower, he tried to grab her “and hold her there,” but she pulled away from him. Wearing a robe, she ran out of the house, hid in the back yard and called police, the documents say.

Prosecutors dismissed the charge.

In 2015, Blankenship was convicted of a prostitution charge after a Covington police officer saw him “receiving sexual acts from a known prostitute.”

The woman told police that Blankenship kept trying to pick up her and her friend, offering them $50 for sex. He received a 90-day suspended jail sentence, according to court records.

Deters has reached out to Northern Kentucky prosecutors regarding Blankenship’s cases, encouraging them to examine cold case rape kits.

Genealogy and the power of 23andMe To identify Blankenship, investigators started with DNA contained in the 20-year-old rape kits.

Using the Y chromosome found in that DNA – which is the gene that passes down paternally – detectives reached out to a genealogy company to

trace the DNA to Blankenship’s family.

Examples of such companies are 23andMe and Ancestry.com.

By tracking the DNA to that family, investigators were able to get a search warrant and test Blankenship directly.

Hamilton County Coroner Dr. Lakshmi Sammarco said tracking criminals’ DNA through the Y chromosome is a new tactic in the forensics world.

The odds of the suspect not being Blankenship, according to this match, is 1 in 3 octillion.

Deters said he has been talking to Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost about making this kind of technology more mainstream in Ohio cases. The only state that uses genealogy databases in criminal investigations is Florida, he said.

He wants Ohio to be next in this trend, but it might not be so easy.

“There are groups that are fighting the release of this information nationwide which I just don’t understand,” Deters said. “I mean I’m sorry, you know, you got– I don’t care, they’re always your kid, but if he’s a killer or a rapist, for God’s sakes, what are you protecting here? What’s the purpose of it?”

If convicted of all charges, Deters said Blankenship will spend the rest of his life in prison.

Former NKU prof jailed in Georgia predator sting Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A former Northern Kentucky University department chair was among 14 men arrested in Georgia in an online child predator sting involving local, state and federal officials there.

Keith Walters, 44, left NKU in June and has served as dean of the College of Science and Mathematics at Valdosta State University in Valdosta, Georgia, since June 2019. He is being held without bond in the Lowndes County, Georgia, Jail. His next court appearance date had not been set.

Walters faces state charges in Lowndes County that include one count of the sexual exploitation of children and three counts of furnishing obscene material electronically to a minor, according to jail records.

“Valdosta State University has placed Keith Walters on immediate administrative leave pending the outcome of internal and law enforcement investigations into these very disturbing allegations,” said Jessica Pope, media relations coordinator for the university.

“VSU remains committed to assisting law enforcement’s investigation in any way.”

A statement from Northern Kentucky University said Walters is a former chair of the university’s Chemistry and Biochemistry Department who voluntarily left NKU last June after accepting a position with Valdosta State University.

“During his tenure, the university did not receive any allegations of inappropriate conduct,” Northern Kentucky University’s statement said.

Walters was arrested in an undercover investigation called “Operation Broken Arrow,” coordinated by the Georgia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Lowndes County Sheriff ’s

Office, according to a press release issued by the GBI this week.

“The goal of ‘Operation Broken Arrow’ was to arrest persons who communicate with children online and then travel to meet them for the purpose of having sex,” the release said.

The release said the sting also targeted people willing to exploit children by purchasing sex with a minor.

The men arrested were charged with computer or electronic pornography and violations of the Child Exploitation Prevention Act of 2007 and/or trafficking of persons for labor or sexual servitude, the release said.

Covington passes new rules for homeless shelters Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

COVINGTON – The homeless shelters in Northern Kentucky’s largest city have new rules to follow.

The Covington Board of Commissioners approved an ordinance Tuesday, Feb. 11 that sets standards and restrictions for new and existing homeless shelters in the city. The vote aims to close the door on the community conflict that erupted around the draft ordinance that advocates for people experiencing homeless called “problematic,” in letters sent to the city.

In October, The Enquirer obtained a copy of the draft ordinance. Homeless advocates lashed out at the suggested elements that included strict location restrictions and bike rack requirements.

Since then, things have changed.

The most critiqued standards, including the location restrictions, are not part of the ordinance that the commission passed. Officials nixed the most contested elements from the bill.

Commissioner Denny Bowman was the only commissioner who voted against the ordinance. He told the room he thought it was an example of government overreach.

In October, Bowman told The Enquirer the commissioners had not included him in the discussions about the controversial draft ordinance. He reiterated that point Tuesday, Feb. 11.

Representatives from the homeless shelters thanked the officials for their communication about the changes to the ordinance.

There are five homeless shelters in Covington: Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky, Welcome House, Fairhaven Rescue Mission, Women’s Crisis Center and the Brighton Center Homeward Bound Shelter.

“We want to express our thanks and say our experience with the city has been very positive,” said Cameron Parker, Treasurer for Fairhaven Rescue Mission.

“We felt like our concerns have been addressed.”

Erlanger resident Jamie Weaver, who is vice president on the board for the Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky, also thanked the city officials. He said more progress had been made in the past eight months than ever before on the issue.

“There has been a lot of communication with the community, with the affected agencies,” said Covington Mayor Joe Meyer. “A lot of changes have been made.”

People experience homelessness throughout Northern Kentucky.

About 1,500 people experienced homelessness in the counties of Boone, Kenton and Campbell between July 2018 and June 2019, according to a report from the Northern Kentucky Homelessness Working Group.

That group is made up of organizations that provide services to people experiencing homelessness in Northern Kentucky.

What does the ordinance include?

The shelters must: ❚ Be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and give access to toilet and shower facilities at all times. ❚ Not allow people experiencing homelessness at a shelter for more than 150 days each year, “except for good cause,” according to the ordinance. The first ver-

sion restricted the stay to 120 days. ❚ Not allow shopping carts or pets at the shelter, unless the pet is a registered disability or emotional support pet. ❚ Obtain a business license from the city. ❚ Provide a waiting area for people experiencing homelessness away from public sidewalks, streets and alleys. ❚ Give information to the Kentucky Homeless Management Information System on a quarterly basis and give the city access to the data.

Cincinnati VA gets a new leader, again Anne Saker

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

For the fifth time in six years, a new leader has taken charge at the Cincinnati VA Medical Center.

The VA facility in Corryville, which cares for 40,000 veterans in the Cincinnati area, announced that Mark Murdock, medical center director since October 2018, is moving to oversee the Dayton VA hospital. The Department of Veterans Affairs has made Jane Johnson, a longtime VA nurse and manager, the acting medical center director in Cincinnati.

Both appointments were effective Feb. 16.

Silver Grove Dari Bar sets opening date Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Silver Grove Dari Bar has set its opening date for 2020 and it's approaching faster than you think.

It has been a mild winter in Greater Cincinnati and spring is just around the corner, which means local sweet shops are gearing up to open.

The Silver Grove Dari Bar will open Saturday, March. 14 at 11 a.m.

"It won’t be long now," the shop said on Facebook. "We are looking forward to a great season and can’t wait to see everyone."

The Silver Grove Dari Bar is located at 5178 Mary Ingles Hwy in Silver Grove and is a Northern Kentucky staple during the spring and summer season.

“One Day at Disney” is available to all Disney+ members.

“I just finished Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, which was like a legacy project of my life, and now I’m grateful to be working on Avengers Campus and about 10 other projects at the resort.”

The project includes a book, a fulllength documentary and 52 short-form episodes that look at individual jobs.

What is a typical day at Disney?

“The cool part about it is that there’s not usually a typical day. Every day is different. One morning I might wake up at three in the morning because I need to look at something before the park opens. Other days, I might be asked to take an executive VIP tour around the construction site to make sure they’re safe and they’re able to see what it is they’re looking for. Other days, it’s literally just making sure construction sites are working and moving forward from a logistics standpoint day by day.”

The episode featuring Dewberry, which debuts on Valentine’s Day, will feature an interview inside the Millennium Falcon. “I basically just talk about my story tell my story and talk about my past in the construction industry. And my love of Star Wars, which was a big piece in me getting to work on that particular project.”

Do you have a goetta recipe or memory?

Rita’s goetta Double the recipe if you like. The only changes I made from my family’s original recipe were adding broth, garlic and marjoram.

So if you’re a purist like my German in-laws, leave them out.

Just add more water to sub for the broth. Either way, it’s good.

Ingredients 3-4 pounds fresh pork shoulder/butt, bone in or not, top fat trimmed just a bit 3 generous cups chopped onion and celery (include leaves) 3 bay leaves 2 tablespoons salt 1 tablespoon pepper ⁄2 to 1 teaspoon each: dried marjoram and garlic powder

1

1 quart low-sodium beef broth, and water enough to cover meat in pan. I added up to 6 cups.

30 to 32 oz. regular pinhead/steel cut oats Instructions Put everything but oats in large stockpot.

Bring to boil, lower to simmer and cook, partially covered, until meat falls from bone, 2-3 hours or so. Add water as necessary to keep meat under liquid.

Dump everything in a colander, straining broth for cooking oats.

Set meat and veggies aside. (You’ll shred these while oats cook).

Spray a large slow cooker and pour in hot broth.

Pour in oats and stir. Cover and cook on high or low, stirring occasionally, until oats are thoroughly cooked. You may need to add water if oats look sort of dry before they’re cooked.

Mine took about 21⁄2 hours on high.

Goetta with egg and bacon fried in a cast iron skillet. RITA HEIKENFELD FOR THE ENQUIRER

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

A snowy wonderland greeted me when I woke up early this morning. The decision was made: today would be a goetta making day.

Goetta, as you may know, is an iconic Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky food with Germanic origins.

I don’t have space here to go into goetta’s history but check my site for a photo tutorial of my recipe using fresh pork shoulder/butt, plus recipes from readers, like Bernie Butscha’s great grandma’s recipe. Hers uses pork loin and ground chuck. Terry Balllman’s generational recipe has its origins at the stockyards in Cincinnati.

June Cross’ includes beef shank and marrow bone. The Hoerst family uses ground beef

and ground pork. Others add a dash of cloves.

Reader Jon Peters uses the recipe and pot handed down from his father-in-law. Jim Reinhart’s crockpot goetta is a reader fave.

Get where I’m going here? About the only common denominator is pinhead, also called steel cut oats. We always used the 2 pound bag of Dorsel’s pinhead oats. I couldn’t find that at the grocery. I substituted Quaker steel cut oats, but the container was shy of 2 pounds.

Yet the recipe turned out fine. You can use Irish steel cut oats. Don’t use quick cooking pinhead oats.

My German in-laws made stove top goetta with freshly slaughtered pork shoulder/butt.

My sister-in-law, Claire and I use a slow cooker for part of the process.

Do you have a goetta recipe or memory?

Coming soon: Doscher’s tea party specialities Chris Kimball of Milk Street

Cooked oats will be tender, liquid will be absorbed, and mixture will be thick enough and a bit clumpy looking for big spoon inserted in center to stand straight up. The thicker the consistency, the nicer your goetta sets up.

Mix meat and veggie combo in with oats and continue to cook in slow cooker about 30 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally. Or put all in big pot and cook on stove until hot throughout. Remove bay leaves. Adjust seasonings.

Line bread pans and spray. Put goetta in, packing tight.

Smooth tops.

Refrigerate uncovered for 12-24 hours. This creates a slight crust and allows goetta to set up firmly.

Store, covered, in refrigerator or freezer.

To serve: Cook until crisp with bacon or bacon drippings. It’s heresy in our family to cook any other way.

Sports Walton-Verona, Ryle wrestlers win state titles James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

LEXINGTON – Spencer Moore and Daulton Mayer are like coaches for the Walton-Verona wrestling team according to head coach John Roth.

The pair brought home A+ grades for their teaching Saturday at Alltech Arena, winning state championships at the KHSAA state championship meet.

Mayer, a senior, won the 195-pound championship, and Moore won at 106.

“Daulton has been a leader all year,” Roth said. “As an athlete, I wish I had 20 of him. As a human being, I wish I had 60 of him. He’s a great character, who he is, how he represents himself.

“Spencer is like having another coach. I’ve let him dictate our lineup before and it’s worked out for us. He’s a smart individual. Every time I asked him to step up, he did.”

Both Bearcats had dominant seasons. Moore, a sophomore, finished 48-0, with roughly half of those matches at higher weights, according to Roth.

Moore won all five matches in the state tournament by pin in the first period, winning the KHSAA trophy given out for that kind of dominance. He had five pins in 6 minutes flat.

“It’s cool to finally get to do this. I got second last year and it’s good to get the win,” Moore said. “A lot of hard work over the summer, preparing every day to get back here. Me and Daulton have been wrestling together since elementary school and we’ve been trying to get this goal since the beginning.”

Mayer, a senior headed to wrestle for Thomas More, barely lost out to Moore for the quickest pins trophy, winning all five of his matches by pin, totaling 6 minutes, 17 seconds. He defeated regional rival Cooper Elliston of Conner in the final, getting a pin 34 seconds into the match.

“It’s great,” Mayer said. “We’ll put our name on the big board and in the trophy case. It’s awesome to be a part of the great teams at Walton-Verona.

There’s nothing like wrestling. You can put other sports up against it, there’s nothing like it. It’s the hardest sport there is.”

Mayer and Moore bring the number of all-time state championships for the Bearcats to seven, from six different individuals.

Elliston had been ranked 14th in the state heading into the tournament before posting two one-point thrillers in the quarterfinals and semifinals.

“This is the fourth time I’ve wrestled Cooper,” Mayer said. “I knew he’s a

scrappy kid and I had to get the first takedown so I wouldn’t risk getting scrapped over. I was happy with how it went.”

WV finished fifth in the team standings, winning the small school runnerup trophy.

“It’s all them,” Roth said. “These guys put in the hard work, the time. It gives us a chance to coach. I’m proud of them. They didn’t take anything for granted. They always stuck together as one, and they never thought of it as one individual.”

Northern Kentucky’s third title of the night came from Ryle sophomore Cole Thomas, who defeated Grant County’s Isaac Thornton 6-2 in the championship match at 120 pounds.

Thomas is a two-time state champ after winning at 106 last year.

Thomas was dominant all year, finishing an undefeated 54-0. He won his first four matches by pin before a tough match against second-ranked Thornton, who was also a state runner-up last year.

The Ryle swimming program has been on a gradual rise in the past few years. Teamwork brought the Raiders to new heights after the girls team made school history Feb. 7.

Ryle won the Region 7 girls championship, ending Notre Dame’s 21-year winning streak in regional team championships. Ryle scored 412 points to beat the Pandas by 88, and win their first ever regional championship.

Head coach Jeff Floyd said his swimmers’ willingness to swim different events than last year showed great teamwork.

“That shows the unselfishness of the team,” he said. “They said ‘Coach we want to win this title; tell us what we need to do. We’re all in.’ A lot of coaches don’t have that flexibility or the talent that’s willing to put the program first versus themselves. That’s a testament to these ladies.”

Ryle won one of the 12 individual event championships, the 200 freestyle relay, marking Ryle’s first individual event championship in program history.

In addition, the Raiders had third-place finishes in the other two relays, and 12 combined top-five finishes in the eight individual swimming events. That in-

cluded three of the top five finishers in one of the most difficult events, the 200 individual medley.

The Raiders have a deep group led by Marshall University commit Audrey West, Rhodes commit Emily Robinson and several others who will swim in college. The 200 free relay champions consisted of seniors West and Avery Floyd, junior Kelsey Hammons and sophomore Bethany Weber.

West was on the 400 free relay, finished second in the 200 freestyle and third in the 100 breaststroke.

Floyd was in the 200 medley relay and finished fourth in the 100 breaststroke and 200 IM. Hammons was also in the 400 free relay and finished fourth in the 100 freestyle.

Weber was also in the 400 free relay, and finished second in the 100 backstroke and 200 freestyle.

Junior Alexa Arkenberg swam the medley relay and 400 free relay, and finished second in the 200 IM and 500 freestyle.

Senior Emily Robinson swam the medley relay, was third in the 500 free and fifth in the 200 IM. Junior Megan Collins swam the medley relay and seventh-grader Paige McDaniel finished fourth in the backstroke.

In addition, the Raiders had several others score points. “The depth was the key,” Floyd said. “You can’t win a regional championship unless you have that kind of depth. We scored four girls in every event except for two. One of them was a girl swimming out of her normal event. The other one is a seventh-grader

who was swimming her fourth-best event and dropped time.

Ryle finished third in the boys standings, with top performers including senior Carter Reynolds, junior Benett Koenigsknecht and freshman Roman Furuta.

The Raiders set school records in five of the six relays in both genders, Floyd said.

The KHSAA state meet is Feb. 20-22 at the University of Kentucky.

DIXIE HEIGHTS: Dixie Heights, who finished second in the girls state meet last year with four swimmers, is poised for another big performance from a small group.

Senior Kenady Beil, who has committed to swim for the University of Florida, won four championships in the meet.

She won the 200 freestyle and 100 butterfly, and was part of the 400 freestyle relay and 200 medley relay.

This year’s 200 medley relay was less than a second off of last year’s Dixie quartet that set the regional record. This year’s foursome was Beil, senior Selina Reil, sophomore Mackenzie Tucker and seventh-grader Dahlia Kissel. That group also won the 400 free relay.

Reil won the 500 freestyle and finished second in the 100 breaststroke.

Tucker finished third in the 200 IM and second to Beil in the 100 butterfly.

Kissel was fifth in the 50 free and 100 free.

COLONELS AND PANDAS: Privateschool powers Covington Catholic and Notre Dame were both second in the team standings.

For NDA, freshman Lainy Kruger won the 200 IM and 100 breaststroke.

Junior Riley Jordan won the 100 backstroke.

CovCath was second in the 200 medley relay and 400 free relay, and fourth in the 200 free relay. Knollman, Lester, Kampinga and Holt were in both runner-up foursomes. The 200 free was an all-sophomore group of Kampinga, Ethan Conrad, Daniel Andreev and Robbie Bright.

OTHER CHAMPS: Beechwood junior Eli Shoyat won the 200 free and the 500 free, swimming 4:26.05 in the latter to shatter the regional meet record by nearly two seconds.

Tips on food shopping Food shopping can be a chore, but following a few tips can make the experience run smoother and cost less.

Choosing a grocery store near your home, or on your route to or from work, and avoiding small convenience stores, will save time and money. Remember to shop at discount food stores and national chains as they usually offer the best prices.

While in the store, use a pocket calculator to track your spending and stay within your budget. Plan menus around store ads to result in less expensive meals. Make a shopping list and stick to it, because this helps prevent frequent trips to the store.

It is wise to use coupons for items you normally buy but skip the coupons for things you do not use all the time. Check the newspaper or the store advertisements for sale items; buy only if you

need them. Keep in mind a sale is a bargain only if you need the item and will use it before it goes bad. Don’t forget to compare prices of different brands; usually private or generic labels are less expensive than brand names. Moreover, never shop when you’re hungry.

It is best to shop alone whenever possible. It’s easier to stick to items on your list if you do not have children or others with you. While shopping, use the unit price on grocery shelves, this helps you compare the costs of items in the store.

Always shop the outside aisles of the grocery Rex store for the freshest, least processed foods – produce, meats, and dairy. Beware of buying clubs as they have membership fees and avoid broken packages, bulging cans, and products that have passed the expiration date.

Compare prices and don’t be tricked into believing the largest size is the best buy. It is advisable to stock up on sale items only if you will use them within the expiration date.

Be sure to pay attention when you are paying for your groceries, mistakes happen, and it is easier to catch them if you are paying attention. Check your receipt before you leave the store.

Follow these simple steps and grocery shopping will seem less of a chore and a more productive experience.

Creating art with beewax Beeswax seems like an unlikely medium to create art with, but it has been mixed with pigments and tree resin to create paint for thousands of years.

Recently, there has been a resurgence in the popularity of this art form referred to as encaustic art.

Local artist Tina M. Tepe works from her home studio, creating encaustic paintings and prints.

An exhibit of encaustic abstract prints will be on display at Enlightenment Coffee in Walton. The exhibit runs from Feb 16 through Mar 31.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the Council City of Bellevue, Kentucky Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund and the remaining aggregate fund information of the City of Bellevue, Kentucky, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

-Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

-Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

-Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund and the remaining aggregate fund information of the City of Bellevue, Kentucky as of June 30, 2019 and the respective changes in financial position thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America Other Matters -Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis on pages 3-6, the budgetary comparison schedules on pages 43-44, and the pension and other post-employment benefits disclosures on pages 45-48 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

-Supplementary Information Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. The combining special revenue funds, proprietary funds, and non-major governmental funds financial statements are supplementary information and are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 7, 2020 on our consideration of the City of Bellevue, Kentucky’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City of Bellevue, Kentucky’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
