Century-old tradition coming to an end Junior newspaper carriers, having served the Tristate for decades, are being retired

Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

We’re losing another piece of “the good old days,” as junior carriers stop delivering weekly newspapers in the suburbs. This newspaper has been using junior carriers since at least the 1870s, but more likely since its launch in 1841. During that time, young people delivering newspapers has become a touchstone of the American experience. May will be the last month The Enquirer and its network of Community Press and Recorder newspapers will use junior carriers, also known as paper boys and paper girls in Ohio. The Kentucky carriers will deliver their last papers in June. Some East Side carriers have already made their last rounds.

Paper route taught life lessons Ben Bergan is 10. He just lost his ﬁ rst job. For the past two years, he’s been delivering papers near his home in Montgomery. “I decided I needed a continuous income because I didn’t like having a lemonade stand or two every year or so,” Ben

Luke Laskey, 19, is closer to getting the special-needs education plan his parents fought for when they turned to the Kentucky Department of Education earlier this year during a dispute with their son’s school. In March, The Enquirer reported Highlands High School in Fort Thomas failed to provide Laskey “coordinated activities” to help him obtain a job after graduation, according to the Kentucky Department of Education. The district appealed to the Exceptional Children’s Appeal Board, whose members are appointed by the Kentucky Department of Education. Last week, the appeal board reaffi rmed the Kentucky Department of Education ruling. Since “appropriate transition services were not provided” by the school, the appeal board ordered the district to off er Laskey, whose primary disability is autism, a social graduation with his classmates this academic year and a fi fth year of services that includes attendance at a job training program. “At this point, our administrators are reviewing the Exceptional Children’s Appeal Board decision with the board’s attorneys, and no decision has been made as to the appeal,” said Fort Thomas Independent Schools Superintendent Karen Cheser in a statement sent to The Enquirer. “Details for this year’s graduation for all seniors remain in fl ux due to the COVID-19 crisis, and we cannot at this point in time, provide any specifi c information as to how graduation will be handled for the entire class, much less in this one case.” The family had requested the district allow Laskey to “socially” graduate, or walk at commencement with his class, but not receive his diploma until after completing Project Search, a job training program through Northern Kentucky University and Campbell County Schools. The nine-month unpaid internship helps students explore careers and develop skills. The district argued there is no provision in federal or state law that “even contemplates” this possibility. The Kentucky Department of Education got involved after Laskey’s parents felt school offi cials led them to believe Laskey would be eligible for the program. But then they changed See STUDENT, Page 2A

He started with one route, about 12 houses, but then picked up an extra route. “I’m really sad about losing my customers, all the people,” he said.

we could fi nd,” Bergan said. “This was just his fi rst regular job and responsibility where he was serving his customers. That’s just a hard skill to replicate in other ways at young ages.” Ben said the job helped him connect with other people in his neighborhood and taught him “you have to be nice to people in order for them to continue talking to you.” But the 10-year-old has plans. He’s learning to run a lawnmower and wants to launch a dog walking business as soon as COVID-19 restrictions lift enough to allow it. And what does someone like Ben, who demanded work and paycheck at 8 and suff ered through downsizing at 10, want to do when it grows up? He said he wasn’t sure, but had a top three: animator, a YouTuber who does animation or maybe a job that involves working with animals.

Family ties The Price Hill Press will be one of the last Ohio publications to make the switch. Junior carriers for that paper will make their last delivery on May 27. Griffi n Kelley, 18, will be throwing papers on that last day on a route that has been passed down to him from his four older brothers. “I was tagging along walking the route with them when I was 6 years old. I was just having fun, along for the ride. I’ve had multiple customers tell us how amazing it’s been to watch all of us boys grow up,” Griffi n said. “We were able to build these relationships with people in our neighborhood that we wouldn’t have really got to know without this paper route.” Griffi n is set to graduate from Elder this year and will then head to Ohio State University, just like his older brothers. They have all caddied at Western Hill Country Club and been lifeguards at the Gamble-Nippert YMCA. Duncan Kelley is a senior at OSU graduating with a degree in sports industry. He said: “It’s just never really been an option about whether we would work or not, it’s about where we would work and pretty often how many jobs we would work.” The teens’ father, Deron Kelley, called throwing papers a rite of passage and credits it with helping build his sons’ work ethic. He too was a paper carrier when he was in high school in the early 1980s, though he delivered a much bigger, daily route from a van. Now Griffi n delivers weekly to about 65 houses. Half of what he collects goes to the newspaper. He keeps the other half, plus any tips. He said he makes about $120 a month and the job takes one to two hours a week. The papers are dropped off to his home on Tuesday nights. He folds them individually that night, then de-

livers them after school on Wednesdays. “We still had plenty of time to have a good high school social life, have other jobs, get our homework done,” Griffi n said. “It didn’t take too much time and it was still a great job to have.” Paxton Kelley is a junior at Ohio State. He started helping his brother’s deliver the papers when he was about 9. “In my head, tossing papers is a very traditional kids fi rst job. I think the safety concern, I guess it’s valid, but I never felt unsafe on my route,” he said. Paxton said the job was a unique preparation for the working world. “A 9- or 10-year-old getting $80 a month, I didn’t know what to do with it. You just start to learn how to save money and you start to learn what money really is,” he said. “The whole time you’re speaking to adults, and that’s something most 9- or 10-yearolds avoid doing it.” “Our customers will invite us into their houses to keep us warm while they are going to get there money. They’ll give us water on hot days,” Griffi n added. The youngest Kelley said an ex-Marine had a choice words when learned the news. “When I informed him that the kids were being ‘kicked out’ of this paper route, he informed me that he was going to try to kick them out. He is not responding lightly to all this,” Griffi n said. The Kelleys also worry for their older customers.

While they make sure the paper ends up at the doorstep, the don’t trust adults in cars to do the same thing. References to The Enquirer using “newsboys” can be found dating back to at least 1845, just four years after the paper was founded. In those early days, there were several daily newspapers in Cincinnati. Hundreds of newsboys worked in the city. After the second World War and the huge expansion of public education and suburbia, the job of paper boy or girl took on the look many envision today – the young person tossing papers over the handlebars of their bike. The Associated Press reported in 2006 that in 1994, more than half of newspaper carriers were under 18. Twelve years later, 81 percent were adults in cars. The demise of afternoon papers, a shift to centralized distribution and earlier delivery deadlines were cited as reasons for the shift. The Enquirer’s parent company, Gannett, operates hundreds of newspapers in 47 states and Guam. Most phased out the use of junior carriers years ago. The Community Press and Recorders are among the last in Gannett to shift to an adult carrier program, consistent with industry best practices, according to Enquirer Executive Editor Beryl Love. Before the program began winding down this spring, there were 1,568 youth carriers delivering to 60,120 homes in region.

‘The right project:’ New development may rise at site of Beverly Hills Supper Club Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

More than 40 years after a fi re destroyed the Beverly Hills Supper Club and killed 165 people, a Northern Kentucky city has given the initial okay for plans to develop the site. At its meeting May 6, Southgate City Council unanimously entered into a joint agreement with the Edgewood, Ky.-based construction fi rm Ashley Builders and Cincinnati-based Vision Realty Group to develop the land into a $65 million mix-used development that will include an assisted living center, apartments, homes – and a permanent memorial honoring the victims of the 1977 supper club fi re. The fi re at the club was the third deadliest nightclub fi re in U.S. history. During Memorial Day weekend in 1977, the fi re killed 165 people and more than 200 were injured. “It has been nearly 43 years since that tragic night, and there have been a number of proposals over the years to develop the site,” said Southgate Mayor Jim Hamberg in a press release. “I’m excited that we waited for the right project and the right developer.” The mixed-use site, called Memorial Point, will be built over fi ve years, according to the release. Construction is estimated to begin in fall 2021. Here’s what the 80-acre site will have: ❚ 89 single-family, two- to four-bedroom homes that will be off ered starting in the upper $300,000 range. ❚ 100 to 200 apartments that will cost $1,100 to $2,000 a month with amenities that include a pool, indoor exercise facility and event center. ❚ 79 residential units in a for-profi t assisted living facility that will cost $3,000 to $6,000 a month. “The developer committed to a memorial fi nally and permanently honoring the memories of those who lost their lives on that fateful night and the brave fi remen whose bravery saved many lives in the hours the fi re raged,” Southgate city councilwoman LeAnna Homandberg said in an email. “It

brings a mixed-use development to Southgate balancing history and future benefi ting Southgate residents and creating jobs.” The memorial will be at the base of the hill that leads up to a park within the residential section of the development, said Ashley Builders representative Bill Kreutzjans Jr. at the May 6 city council meeting, held via video conference due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The memorial along U.S. 27 will include: ❚ The names of the victims ❚ A list of local fi rst responder units that responded to the fi re ❚ A list of the federal and state fi re safety regulations that were implemented as a result of the fi re ❚ Maps of the site in 1977. The memorial will be donated to the city. The park won’t be public, but the public will have access to the memorial. What happens next? A lot of meetings and public input.

with COVID-19, deadlines could be pushed. “Now, I don’t know with COVID-19 and things being virtual if there’s going to be an extension on some of those deadlines,” Stewart said. Construction of the roads into and within the development would take about a year to complete, Kreutzjans said. His crew would construct buildings soon after that.

City council’s decision means the project will be reviewed by the Campbell County zoning commission, which reviews projects like this for cities within the county. That needs to happen because the site isn’t zoned for the type of proposed project. To be successful, the developers will need to show why the site should be changed. Right now, the site is zoned for professional oﬃ ce use. The developers want to change it to a combination of residential and general commercial for the memorial site. The commission will recommend whether the site should be rezoned or not and then Southgate’s city council has the ﬁ nal say on if the change goes through. A public hearing about the zoning change has been scheduled for July 14. Usually, the entire process takes about six months, said city attorney Mary Ann Stewart at the meeting. But,

Soon you can eat, drink, shop and relax at a ‘Box Park’ at Newport on the Levee Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A new type of open-air dining and shopping area is coming soon to Newport on the Levee. North American Properties is creating Bridgeview Box Park, a colorful box park, which will feature six local restaurants and retailers and views of the Ohio River and downtown Cincinnati. “This vibrant, window-service park will become a new destination for the community to gather together, savor delightful fare and relish the waterfront views,” NAP oﬃ cials said. Bridgeview Box Park will feature a turf plaza with festival lighting overhead, an outdoor seating, space for entertainment, four shipping-like container boxes, an octagon-shaped box and a food truck. Guests will also be able to walk through the park with alcohol due to an Entertainment Destination License. Oﬃ cials also said a large “Bridgeview” art mural will rise above the park and will be visible from the Ohio River.

“We are creating an experience akin to sitting on your deck at home, except imagine that you are sipping an umbrella drink while people-watching and taking in the four bridges stretching over the river,” Adam Schwegman, partner and senior vice president of leasing at NAP said in a statement.

NKU nursing student killed in Louisville shooting remembered as ‘fabulous young lady’ Sarah Ladd Louisville Courier Journal USA TODAY NETWORK

From the time she was a child, Kelsie Small wanted to be a nurse. The 19-year-old Northern Kentucky University nursing student and Central High School grad was shot and killed on Saturday at 936 South First Street in Louisville. Small’s mother, Delisa Love, said she could go on and on describing her daughter. A few of the words that came to mind were bubbly, hard working and determined. “She was a fabulous young lady,” Love said on Mother’s Day, spent with only Small’s older brother, Ernie. Over the weekend, there were three double shootings in Louisville, the latest in a surge of shooting violence Louisville Metro Police Chief Steve Conrad previously attributed to the coronavirus. “The virus has in some ways contributed to creating an environment ripe for violence,” Conrad wrote in an April 20 column for The Courier Journal. “Young people are not in school. Libraries and community centers are closed. Sports leagues and events are canceled. Positive outlets for activity are limited, and that makes some in our community more vulnerable to crime.” Love wants answers about her daughter’s death. “I’m getting to the bottom of it,” she said. “My child didn’t deserve this. “You experience so much tragedy until (you’re) literally ... desensitized to it. And you never want to feel that way.” Christopher 2X, a community activist who leads the city’s Game Changers anti-violence organization, said he’s never seen anything like the violence this weekend. His tracking shows 32 teenagers age 19 and younger have been shot since March 4, and 14 of those have died. “That’s something to be really con-

fect for escaping fast-paced city life and soaking up the views of the riverfront and the Queen City.” ❚ The View at Shires’ Garden: “A food truck version of the restaurant located at City Club Apartments CBD, will oﬀ er picnic-style grilled and smoked meats, sandwiches and sides, as well as handmade empanadas and other snacks.” ❚ The Little Spoon Bakery and Café: “A bakery by Courtney Augsback specializing in custom sugar cookies and baked goods, will be located in the “Octagon” adjacent to the Newport Aquarium. Little Spoon will also serve Carabello coﬀ ee and a full range of espresso drinks and beverages.” ❚ Bon Mi Street: “An Asian street food eatery that is described as refreshing, artsy and creative with a unique spin on the traditional banh mi sandwich and refreshing milk tea with a variety of toppings.” ❚ Leaf & Limb: “A vibrant boutique featuring a wide variety of indoor plants and curated goods from local and worldwide artisans.”

“The Box Park model is part of our approach to curating a retail and restaurant mix that is fresh, modern and approachable for small businesses,” Schwegman said. “Moreover, the openair design of the box park naturally lends itself to creating a comfortable gathering place for the community as we start to return to the ‘next normal.’ “ Oﬃ cials said Bridgeview will open summer 2020. It ushers in a wave of new businesses after the closures of all the Levee’s original tenants. Dewey’s Pizza, the last original tenant to open with the mall in 2001, announced it would close in February. In March, Dart Rush, a foam dart arena, also closed. Bar Louie also abruptly closed in January. Mitchell’s Fish Market and its nextdoor neighbor Barnes & Noble exited the mall last year. North American Properties said they have to make way for change after committing to put the “new” back in Newport on the Levee.

cerned about,” said 2X. “I’ve never seen the velocity of teens connected by shootings like I’ve seen in the last two months.” “More of these shootings causes more revenge shootings,” he added. “Don’t underestimate that.” Love said she wants to see compassion among young people. “There isn’t any love,” she said. “They don’t care nothing about you.

Who’s ﬂ ying at CVG? We checked Five tips for flying during COVID-19 pandemic

Randy Tucker Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

HEBRON, Ky. — Judy Ryerson is 79 and knows she’s among those most vulnerable to the ravages of COVID-19 because of her age. Still, the Cincinnati resident checked her fears at the gate when she boarded a Delta Air Lines fl ight to Atlanta late last month to visit her sick daughter. Despite feeling anxious and a sense of impending danger, Ryerson said she “had no other choice” but to take her seat with a handful of other passengers. “It’s my daughter. She’s sick. I had to see her no matter what,” Ryerson said upon her recent return to the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in Hebron. Ryerson wore a surgical mask and disposable gloves on her fl ights to and from Atlanta. But she still worried about infection because she was surrounded by other passengers who wore no protection at all. “All I could think of is: what if someone starts coughing? There’s nowhere to go,” she lamented. Airlines are now taking steps to allay such fears by requiring passengers to wear facial coverings and providing masks for those passengers who don’t bring their own. Delta recently began requiring passengers to wear masks, joining Southwest, United, American, Frontier and most other major airlines. Most airlines have also eliminated middle-seat bookings and have begun boarding passengers by no more than ten at a time to promote social distancing. The measures are designed to make passengers feel more comfortable about fl ying in the midst of the pandemic, which has decimated the demand for air travel. Hundreds of commercial jetliners have been parked, and many airlines have cut their fl ight capacity by up to 90%. At CVG, just 5%-10% of the more than 12,000 passengers who used to pass through security checkpoints each day are still passing through the airport. Those still determined to fl y include die-hard travelers like 49-year-old Cin-

Tip 1: Bring that hand sanitizer with you. TSA is currently allowing one liquid hand sanitizer container, up to 12 ounces per passenger, in carry-on bags until further notice. Since these containers exceed the standard 3.4-ounce allowance typically permitted through a checkpoint, they will need to be screened separately. All other liquids, gels and aerosols brought to a checkpoint continue to be limited to 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters carried in a one-quart-size bag.

dy Silbersack of Alexandria, Ky., who recently visited the airport to buy tickets for a trip to Punta Gorda, Fla., in June. A savvy ticket buyer, Silbersack, 49, came to the airport with her friend and travel buddy, Angela Russell, 50, and Russell’s daughter, Meagan Toadvine, 32, to buy tickets in person. “They’ll waive the passenger (usage) fee if you buy your tickets in person,” Silbersack said, referring to the convenience fee most airlines charge if you buy tickets online or over the phone. “We just got round-trip tickets for $53 apiece. We saved $36 apiece by buying at the airport.” That’s not uncommon. Those who have been fl ying during the pandemic are fi nding average airfares down 30% or more since the beginning of the year, according to Moonfi sh, a company that analyzes global fl ight data. Silbersack, a cafeteria manager at Campbell County Middle School, said she’s somewhat concerned about the coronavirus but still thinks it’s relatively safe to fl y. “I’m comfortable with fl ying because

I take all the precautions,” she said. “I have a mask, and I carry hand sanitizer in my purse and keep my distance from other people.’’ For her part, Russell said her biggest concern is that the bars and restaurants won’t be fully open when she gets to Florida. The state’s state-at-home order recently ended, and businesses began gradually reopening. “Hopefully, things will be fully open in a few weeks so we can at least have a cocktail at a tiki bar,” said Russell, who lives in Southgate On the opposite end of the coronavirus spectrum, 53-year-old Tony Young of West Chester said he’d rather stay as far away from the airport as possible. “I had to come out here to pick up my parents,” Young said as he anxiously awaited their arrival Saturday at CVG. “But I really didn’t want to come in here.” Young, a maintenance worker at the Kids ‘R’ Kids child care center in West Chester, said he was even more concerned about his parents, Gene Young, and his wife, Cathy, who are 80 and 77, respectively. The couple returned to CVG on a Del-

Tip 2: Bring disinfectant wipes with you too. Travelers are permitted to bring individually-packaged alcohol or antibacterial wipes in carry-on or checked luggage. Jumbo containers of hand wipes are also allowed in carry-on or checked luggage. Tip 3: Wear a mask. Most travelers are now required to wear masks. A TSA officer may ask travelers to adjust masks to conﬁ rm their identity. Tip 4: Place items from your pockets into your carry-on bag. Prior to going through the security checkpoint, remove your keys, tissues, lip balm, loose change, breath mints, mobile phone and anything else from your pockets and place them into your carry-on bag. That way you don’t have to place them in a bin and take the risk of handling the bin. Tip 5: Remember to wash your hands. It’s good practice to wash your hands before and after going through the security screening process. Source: Transportation Security Administration

ta ﬂ ight from Fort Myers, Fla., where they had been visiting relatives. “I’m just glad they weren’t ﬂ ying out of New York or someplace like that where the virus is everywhere,’’ Young said. “I made sure they had masks and gloves for the trip, but you never know what they’ve been exposed to. Somebody could have been handling their luggage and sneezing all over it.”

Ginger beer.

Rita Heikenfeld

RITA

Guest columnist

HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER

Ginger beer can be made in less than a day Whether you’re working at home in a spare bedroom, a corner of the family room or in a real home offi ce, or even if you don’t usually work outside the home, one thing’s for certain. Most of us are doing more cooking than we ever thought possible. And being adventurous, yet frugal, in the process. I’m guessing that’s why you perked up when I mentioned ginger beer recently. Now don’t get excited – it’s not a real beer, since it contains no grain. But because ginger beer uses yeast in the quick fermenting process, we call it a “beer.” Ginger beer, made with ginger root, is naturally fi zzy with a sweet and spicy bite. The fi rst time I enjoyed it was at friend Triset De Fonseka’s Sri Lankan restaurant, Aralia. That was a long while back. I just assumed it was hard to make, but it isn’t. Ginger beer can be made in less than a day. The original recipe called for wine/champagne yeast, but I used regular bread yeast. It worked fi ne. If I can score some wine yeast, I’ll make a batch and let you know. I’m thinking the wine yeast will have a more refi ned fl avor. Oh, and one more thing. If you don’t have molasses, sub in honey or maple syrup.

Ginger Beer

fermentation. Sprinkle yeast on top of liquid.

I used 1-1/2 cups sugar, since as it ferments, it becomes less sweet.

Cover with lid. Position it so a tiny bit of air can come in. (Original recipe said to seal tight, but I was afraid of jar bursting.)

Ingredients: 8 oz. fresh ginger or frozen root, thawed, peeled a bit and coarsely chopped

Let ferment/sit at room temperature for 12 hours or so. Mine sat a full 24. The longer it ferments, the more “beery/yeasty” it tastes.

7-8 cups water 1 to 1-1/2 cups sugar

After fermenting, pour into bottles, leaving air space at the top, seal and store in refrigerator. I don’t seal mine real tight.

1 tablespoon molasses, honey or maple syrup 1/4 to 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice or more to taste

Drink within 1 week.

1/4 teaspoon wine or regular bread yeast (active dry yeast)

Can be used as a base for cocktails. Freeze ginger:

1 container with enough space for fermentation, covered

Up to 6 months.

Instructions:

Grow your own ginger:

In a blender, pulse ginger with 1 quart water until roughly puréed.

Check out my abouteating.com site. Alcohol content:

Combine ginger-water, 3 to 4 more cups water, sugar and molasses in pot over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves.

About 0.5%. FDA classiﬁ es it as non-alcoholic. Ginger beer contains probiotics — good for your gut!

Add lemon juice and taste.

Fermentation tip:

Remove from heat and let cool to slightly warmer than room temperature.

Not sure if fermentation is happening? At any time during the process, give the beer a stir or shake (you can do this when you ﬁ rst add the yeast, too).

Line a funnel with coffee ﬁ lters (3) or double cheesecloth to strain liquid into container. Press on solids. I used a big glass jar. A big plastic soda bottle works, too. There should be 3” or so of space left on top for

You should see some action – bubbles forming and if you look close, tiny fermentation bubbles will be rising through the liquid.

best prep moments from 2019-20 in NKY James Weber | Cincinnati Enquirer | USA TODAY NETWORK

From state championships, record-breaking performances and buzzerbeaters, there was no shortage of thrilling moments in Cincinnati prep sports in the 2019-20 school year.❚ Here are, in no particular order, the 10 best moments in Northern Kentucky high school sports from the 2019-20 season. CovCath football Covington Catholic won the KHSAA 5A state championship with a 14-7 win over Frederick Douglass. The Colonels won their second championship in three years and their eighth overall. CovCath was led by one of the best players in the country, Michael Mayer (see below), who made big plays on both sides of the ball. Junior quarterback Caleb Jacob threw for 2,817 yards and 33 touchdowns, as he led a diverse oﬀ ense with several weapons. The defense had 10 senior starters, led by Mayer and Daniel Felix. They allowed only 91 points in 15 games, and they ﬁ nished the year by shutting down an explosive Douglass team averaging 43 points and 364 yards per game featuring several athletic playmakers and two elite Division I recruits on the line.

Michael Mayer, the All-American

Northern Kentucky celebrated one of its best football players in recent memory as Michael Mayer completed his senior season at Covington Catholic. Mayer led the Colonels in receiving as a tight end/receiver and led the defense in tackling from his front-seven position. Mayer was a key player in CovCath’s two closest wins of the season, a 39-38 win over Lexington Catholic in week 3 and a 14-7 win over Frederick

Douglass in the 5A state championship game. Mayer racked up rare individual honors for a Northern Kentucky player along the way. The Notre Dame signee became an Army All-American, won Gatorade Player of the Year, and became Northern Kentucky’s fi rst Mr. Football winner since 2011 and fi fth overall. Mayer fi nished the season as a fi ve-star recruit and a consensus listing among the top two tight ends in the nation, and many experts are predicting he has a bright future in the NFL, like Elder product Kyle Rudolph.

The switch Two traditional small-school powers in Northern Kentucky found themselves in new territory after switching classes in the new KHSAA football realignment. Beechwood moved up to Class 2A for the 2019 season and Newport Central Catholic took its place in 1A. Both teams adjusted well to their new homes. NCC went 10-3, dominating district competition before losing a close game (21-16) at Louisville Holy Cross in the state quarterﬁ nals. Beechwood went 8-6 against its usual tough schedule against bigger schools but went 5-0 in district games by a dominant margin before running into powSee BEST PREP, Page 2B

KHSAA commissioner: ‘I don’t think the 2020 fall season for any sport will look like 2019’ James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The high school sports season this fall is likely to look diff erent than previous seasons because of the novel coronavirus pandemic. How much diff erent is unknown as the situation changes daily, said Julian Tackett, the commissioner of the Kentucky High School Athletic Association commissioner. “You can’t say with any confi dence on May 8 how things will look on June 20, but I feel a lot better than I did a week ago,” Tackett said. “I don’t think the 2020 fall season for any sport will look like 2019.” Tackett took questions from media members Friday as the association makes plans for this summer under un-

precedented conditions. The KHSAA is monitoring the situation with the coronavirus as the association makes plans for the fall seasons. The KHSAA canceled its entire spring sports season in late April, as well as the basketball state tournaments. “I haven’t had to do anything worse,” Tackett said. “I’ve never made a decision that diﬃ cult. We live every day to create opportunities for students. We have 3,000 people at our state track meet. We have a baseball team that is 024 have a new opportunity at the district tournament. There is no one playing now in any of the 50 states, and that is a gut-wrenching decision for all of us.” Tackett recently did an interview with the Louisville Courier Journal where he addressed the ﬁ nancial state of the KHSAA, among other issues.

Since then, local athletes received some good news with Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear announcing Thursday that outdoor youth sports would be allowed beginning June 15 under Phase 2 of Kentucky’s reopening plan. Tackett said he believes that only applies to organizations not under KHSAA jurisdiction, but he is requesting clarifi cation from the governor’s offi ce. “It does start to give us some hope,” Tackett said. “Our athletes who played in the spring have been the only ones who had an entire season lost since World War II. In May, you have the benefi t of time. There is no rush because of the unknown.” Tackett emphasized what high school sports mean to Kentuckians. “It’s important to the community,” he said. “It’s important to society for get-

ting some feelings of normality. It’s important for some areas for ﬁ nancial reasons. It’s very important to get society moving again, and interaction moving again, even if you’re not shaking hands or bro-hugging again. That’s the advantage of interscholastic sports, that everyone gets together. It’s a big value in our state, maybe more than a lot of others.” Tackett addressed a wide variety of issues regarding the next few months in high school sports:

Highlands soccer rules the region Both Highlands soccer teams won the Ninth Region championship for the second straight year. The boys team, after a thrilling penalty-kick shootout win over Covington Catholic in the regional fi nal, went on to fi nish 17-6-4 and lost to Henry Clay in the state quarterfi nals in PKs. The Bluebirds had Porter Hedenberg, Max Farris and Caymon Stevie lead the off ense and a veteran defense allowed only 34 goals for the year. The girls team defeated Notre Dame in the regional fi nal for the second straight year, with the winning goal coming via a great individual play from sophomore Chloe Bramble. The Bluebirds, with help from another late goal by Bramble, advanced to the state fi nals, where they lost 1-0 to Greenwood and fi nished 20-4-5. Top players include NKU signee Lauren Deckert, one of the top players and defenders in the state, with Bramble and sisters Faith and Maria Broering leading the off ense. Despite dealing with numerous injuries at goalkeeper, the Bluebirds allowed only 22 goals for the season. Also in local soccer: Calvary Christian won the 37th District boys championship, winning a district title for the fi rst time since 2008. Holy Cross won its fi rst district championship since 1996, defeating Covington Catholic in penalty kicks. Holy Cross (11-8-3) has won eight of its last nine. Conner won its fi rst-ever 33rd District championship and its fi rst overall since at least 2000. Simon Kenton’s boys team, 1-20 entering the 32nd District tournament, won the championship. Conner also made history in the girls bracket, winning its fi rst-ever 33rd District championship. Conner beat Cooper in overtime and Ryle 6-0 in the tournament, avenging earlier losses to both teams. Simon Kenton won its eighth straight 32nd District championship.

Russell became the fi rst Northern Kentuckian to win the boys 50 free since Conner's Brian Collins, currently the owner of Cherry Hill Swim Club, won three state titles from 1971-73. Highlands fi nished second in the boys standings to perennial champion Louisville St. Xavier, and with the girls team led by Caroline Sand, the Bluebirds won the combined state championship. Jude Dierker won the state diving championship, extending the region’s dominance in the event, with locals winning the title in 10 of the past 11 seasons. Dixie Heights fi nished fourth in the girls team standings behind SECbound seniors Selina Reil and Kenady Beil, who each had a runner-up fi nish.

State champions wrestling Ryle and Walton-Verona led the Northern Kentucky contingent in the KHSAA state wrestling championships. Walton-Verona took home individual state championships from Spencer Moore at 106 and Daulton Mayer at 195. Both Bearcats had dominant seasons. Moore, a sophomore, fi nished 48-0, Moore won all fi ve matches in the state tournament by pin in the fi rst period, winning the KHSAA trophy given out for that kind of dominance. He had fi ve pins in 6 minutes fl at. The Bearcats were small-school runner-up. Ryle sophomore Cole Thomas 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, fi nishing an undefeated 54-0. He won his fi rst four matches by pin before a tough match against second-ranked Thornton, who was also a state runner-up last year. Ryle fi nished fourth in the state team

standings with six state medalists. Campbell County won the Region 6 team championship, with four regional champions.

Girls wrestling Ryle freshman Olivia Messerly became the third female in Kentucky history to qualify for the KHSAA state meet. She was joined in this year’s bracket by a fourth qualifi er in the 106pound weight class bracket. Messerly fi nished third in the regional meet at 106 pounds and qualifi ed for state.

CovCath basketball Covington Catholic dominated Northern Kentucky this season, going 29-5 overall, winning 28 of 30 after a 1-3 start. The Colonels went 19-0 against Northern Kentucky teams, 13 of them by more than 20 points before outlasting Highlands in a dramatic Ninth Region fi nal. CovCath won its third straight regional title. CovCath is led by senior point guard Grant Disken, who is the Ninth Region’s Mr. Basketball fi nalist. Senior Neil Green emerged as the top post player in the region.

Maddie Scherr, Ryle make history Ryle senior Maddie Scherr rolled through this season as one of the most decorated girls basketball players in Northern Kentucky history. The signee with national championship contender Oregon became Northern Kentucky’s ﬁ rst-ever McDonald’s All-American. She is the ﬁ fth Kentucky player and fourth Greater Cincinnati player to earn the prestigious honor. Scherr was named the Gatorade Player of the Year in Kentucky for the second straight year and is the favorite to be-

Fall Season

Football Fridays Tackett said it’s too soon to know if early regular-season football games will have to be canceled or if there will be limited attendance guidelines for home football games in the fall. Plus, schools will need guidance on how their players will have to social distance and how to determine what fans are allowed in the gates. A potential issue is the diﬀ erence in types of facilities schools have. Tackett said smaller schools with smaller facilities and bleacher sizes have already

Other hoops teams make history Simon Kenton girls basketball fi nished atop the fi nal Associated Press state media poll and fi nished with a 27-5 record after losing in the Eighth Region quarterfi nals. The Pioneers had a deep team, led by Miss Basketball fi nalist Maggie Jones and three other players averaging in double fi gures: Mattie Vickers, Morgan Stamper and Sereniti Webb. Both Bishop Brossart programs had outstanding years, as the girls team fi nished 24-6, led by 10th Region player of the year Marie Kiefer; while the boys team was 25-7, led by Ethan Eilerman. Walton-Verona fi nished 24-10, fi nished as All “A” state runner-up for the second straight year, and beat SK in the 32nd district fi nal. Campbell County fi nished 22-12 and advanced to the 10th Region fi nal before losing to Geroge Rogers Clark. Notre Dame (25-7) had its best season since advancing to the 2013 state fi nal, losing to Ryle in the Ninth Region fi nal in a close contest. Three Ninth Region boys teams had one of the best seasons in their history. Highlands, led by junior Sam Vinson, fi nished 28-4, won the 36th District and took CovCath to the wire in the Ninth Region fi nal. Conner fi nished 23-6 and was 33rd District champions, taking a 17-game winning streak into the Ninth Region Tournament, where the Cougars lost to Highlands in the semifi nals. St. Henry fi nished 25-5, winning the 34th District championship and claiming its second All “A” Classic state title along the way.

issues. “For a (state football ﬁ nal), 8,000 to 9,000 is a fantastic crowd,” Tackett said. “You can ﬁ t that in a 60,000-seat stadium and socially distance. What if it’s a county rivalry with 800 seats? There are so many variables. A lot of schools don’t lock the gates, there’s easy in and out. Some of it may not be able to be regulated. Some of it relies on membership doing the right thing.”

been no offi cial postponements as of yet. Tackett said it’s possible that some sports don’t begin their seasons on time in August, but that every sport will be subject to diff erent guidelines. For instance, golf, as an outdoor sport with limited number of participants, is already in a good place under social-distancing restrictions, especially with many golf courses already open around the area with restrictions. Cross country meets that happen outdoors are also in a good situation, but Tackett said there could be limits on the number of entrants for meets. “They’re all together in the start, jostling at the beginning, then they spread out after that,” he said. “If you watch the start of the meet, it’s not low-contact. We’ll have to get interpretations on that.” Soccer, with regular contact between players, would have similar issues to football. Volleyball, taking place indoors, is under more restrictions and the KHSAA will need guidance from health offi cials about ventilation and air quality.

come Miss Basketball when the award is announced later this spring. Scherr is Ryle’s all-time leader in every major career statistic, having more than 2,200 career points and 1,000 rebounds. She led the Raiders to their third straight Ninth Region championship, becoming only the third Northern Kentucky program to win three in a row.

been discussing moving games to Saturdays at larger stadiums. The potential for having three or four games at one spot on a Saturday is there, especially with the prevalence of turf fi elds. “You could see diff erent stagings for diff erent sports,” he said. “The key thing is can people get onto this campus, can they get in the locker rooms. How confi dent are you in those weight rooms that they can be socially distant? That is our fi rst hurdle, getting people back on campus.” Finances are a key consideration, with Tackett noting that many schools count on fi ve home football games every fall, with ticket revenue being used to fund other sports. Logistics could change for entering a sporting event. Having volunteers, sometimes middle-school age, at a table

collecting cash for tickets is a staple of the school sporting experience. “Nothing is dirtier than money,” Tackett said. “If you have options to buy a ticket on your phone and show them something, they’ll do that. Why would you have stacks of cash that you have to secure and have guards there for? That will come sooner than we ever thought.”

Football ﬁ nals The six state championship games are currently set for the ﬁ rst weekend of December at the University of Kentucky’s Kroger Field. Tackett is open to moving them later in the month if necessary, provided UK doesn’t schedule concerts or other events in the stadium. Moving them back too far won’t work because of overlap with winter sports and weather

If a high school student tests positive for COVID-19, he or she is expected to self-quarantine under existing health department guidelines, but what happens next is a fl uid situation and guidelines could be diff erent in the fall. “The coach is an employee of the school district and would have the fi rst opportunity to address it,” Tackett said. “If someone is quarantined and says he’s going to play anyway, only then would we get involved.” Other situations involving enforcement of rules and guidelines, particularly with masks, are up to the schools. “Then you have the mask requirement, how schools handle that with fans,” Tackett said. “They’ll have to limit fan gatherings at practice. There are schools where that is a big deal. There will be a lot of pressure on schools to enforce these kinds of things.”

Transfers There are no changes to the KHSAA transfer policies, though Tackett said some kids will have more ﬂ exibility on being eligible at a new school because there was no varsity spring season. A student who transfers over the summer would be eligible for the 2021 spring sports season even if they don’t get a waiver from the KHSAA to make them eligible for fall and winter.

COMMUNITY NEWS American Homeland Title doubles cookie purchase from Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road Recently, Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road (GSKWR) called on businesses in Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati to help fund its programs by buying surplus cookies, since Girl Scouts cannot sell cookies door-to-door due to the COVID-19 crisis. American Homeland Title Agency, with oﬃ ces in Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati stepped up to help with a $ 5,000 contribution for 1,250 boxes of cookies from both GSKWR and Western Ohio Girl Scouts. Announced recently, American Homeland Title Agency conﬁ rmed an additional $5,000 contribution for another 1,250 boxes of cookies from both GSKWR and Western Ohio Girl Scouts, for a total contribution of $10,000. American Homeland Title Agency gives fresh-baked cookies to clients at residential real estate closing transactions. “At closings, our clients have responded so positively to the Girl Scout Cookies, and we knew that there was still a surplus of cookies so we wanted to help out in a bigger way,” said John J. Yonas, Attorney and Partner, American Homeland Title Agency. GSKWR relies on cookie sales as they represent over 80% of its annual operating budget and provide girls and their troops the opportunity to set goals and earn their own money, used to fund rigorous programs and growth opportunities. GSKWR currently has warehouse locations throughout the State of Kentucky thousands of surplus cookies that must be sold. Companies throughout Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati, large and small, are urged to purchase remaining cases of cookies for their own use or to support front-line workers in healthcare, restaurant businesses, manufacturing, distribution and any other essential businesses or to donate to food banks or senior facilities to support vulnerable populations. “American Homeland Title is a true partner and we are incredibly thankful for their continued support ”, said Haleigh McGraw, Communications Director, Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road. “We’ve seen great support from other companies as well, but still

have thousands of boxes of cookies to sell to support our Kentucky Cookie Entrepreneurs,” she continued. To purchase cases of cookies with a $ 250 minimum for 5 cases, go to www.gskentucky.org/cookie-relief or, contact Tammy Durham, Director of Grants and Community Partnerships at tdurham@gswrc.org. By earning their own money through cookie sales, Kentucky Girl Scouts learn goal setting, ﬁ nancial literacy and entrepreneurship skills through the Girl Scout Cookie Program. Revenue from the Girl Scout Cookie Program maintains GSKWR property and provides programming on 4 camp properties, provides ﬁ nancial assistance to more than 2,500 girls, training to nearly 4,000 volunteers, and other Girl Scout activities throughout the year. Recognized as the premier leadership opportunity for female ambition in Kentucky, Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road (GSKWR) serves over 8,000 girls and young women in 66 Kentucky counties and 1 Ohio county. With opportunities around the world, GSKWR advocates creativity and free choice, encouraging girls and young

women to explore their passions and cultivate change through a focus on life skills, STEM, entrepreneurship and outdoor experiences. Through corporate partnerships in the State of Kentucky, GSKWR is creating a critical career pipeline of intelligent women leaders.

Responding to emotional eating While we eat for physical hunger, we also want to recognize the other reasons we eat. It may be to celebrate achievements or special occasions or to mourn a loss. It could be in response to feeling stressed, bored, anxious, happy, or even excited. Emotional eating is when we eat food in reaction to emotion, not just for physical hunger. Individuals of all ages – from teens to older adults – may experience emotional eating in their lives. While it can be perceived as a shameful habit, emotional eating is a normal

response to life’s experiences, and we can embrace it as such. We can also consider a few practical ways to protect both our physical and mental health in response to emotional eating. ❚ Reassess your environment. Do you eat emotionally on weekends? After a long day? Only in your house and never out? Considering your environment helps you plan accordingly so you are not eating emotionally in an impulsive or reactive Rex manner, but in an intentional way. ❚ Understand what leads you to eat emotionally. Are there patterns in your eating? It may be helpful to write down what you are eating and what experience led you to emotional eating in the ﬁ rst place. This will allow you to notice and respond in a more healthful way. ❚ Account for your feelings. Feeling sad? Lonely? Bored? Anxious?

Newport approves $22K in assistance to help small businesses deal with COVID-19 fallout Jennifer Edwards Baker Fox19

NEWPORT (FOX19) – Eleven businesses will receive $2,000 each under a small business emergency assistance program the city of Newport launched due to the disruption of the economy caused by the COVID-19 crisis. One of the recipients is Sis’s on Monmouth Street, a restaurant known for home cooked food and live music, city oﬃ cials said in a news release Friday. “I’m just so grateful for what the city is doing for my business and other businesses in Newport during this very diﬃ cult time,” said Sis’s owner Sandy Schweitzer. “This is another example of how the city appreciates and supports

ings and implement self-care measures to ease emotions. Sometimes food can help, but often it’s not enough to cope with strong emotions. Taking a walk, calling a friend or family member, or writing in a journal are a few examples that will help address these feelings, redirect your response, and can lead to better physical and mental health. ❚ Eat throughout the day. When we’re undernourished or overhungry, we tend to respond by eating more than we normally would. Aim to eat balanced meals and snacks (with protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats) including foods you enjoy, to stay full and satisﬁ ed throughout the day. • Don’t deprive yourself of your favorite foods. When we restrict certain foods or food groups because we perceive them as unhealthy, we tend to overindulge when we experience emotional triggers. Deeming food as a “reward” or days as “cheat days” creates the wrong mindset. Instead, eat satisfying amounts of healthier options and enjoy other favorite foods in balance. ❚ Extend grace, and learn from experience. Emotional eating is normal.

small businesses in Newport.” City leaders created the Emergency Business Assistance Program in early April. They say the plan oﬀ ers incentives of up to $500 a month that small business owners and operators can use for rent, lease or mortgage payments during business closures ordered due to the pandemic. Funding comes through the city’s general fund and through the federal Community Development Grant Block (CBDG) program. Other businesses approved for the incentive are: ❚ Drugs Don’t Work, drug screening company. ❚ York Street Café, restaurant.

❚ Richardson & Associates, logistics. ❚ Southgate House, music venue. ❚ Newport Fitness, workout facility. ❚ Drive Media House, video production. ❚ Newport Bridal, bridal retail. ❚ Schlosser Gunsmithing Co., ﬁ rearms retail. ❚ Torch Prep, education services. ❚ Urban Chick, boutique retail. “Small businesses are a tremendous and important part of Newport’s economy and history,” said Newport Assistant Manager Larisa Sims, who developed the concept of the incentive program. “They provide jobs, generate taxes and investment, attract visitors and help create the wonderful and inviting neighborhood feel Newport is known

for. “Small businesses do so much for the city, that we wanted to do something for them during this unprecedented health and economic crisis.” In order to determine eligibility for this program, a company must complete, sign and submit an application to the oﬃ ce of the city manager via email at lsims@newportky.gov. Applications are available on the city’s website and will be accepted until May 22. All will be reviewed by the economic development team. If preliminary approved is given by the economic development team, the application will be presented to the city manager for ﬁ nal approval.

Have self- compassion, and recognize it is a learning process to re-engage with hunger and fullness cues. Focus on positive changes you can make to your eating habits, and explore other coping mechanisms you can use for handling emotional responses. We want to transform how we think about emotional eating by considering the positives, rather than only the negatives. We also want to ﬁ nd a way that works best for you because everyone’s response to emotional eating will be different. Remember, food is meant to be enjoyed, and not only when we are hungry. Ronda Rex, Campbell County Extension Service

Contributors are asked to tell their stories in words and pictures and send to the museum via email or snail mail. The entries will be compiled, shared on the BCM website, www.bcmuseum.org, and preserved in the museum’s archives as an important piece of regional history In an email to supporters, the museum asked, “Please tell future generations what your life was like during this unprecedented period in our lives. Were you conﬁ ned at home alone or with your family? How did you pass the time? Were you driving to work through deserted streets? Are you a ﬁ rst responder or health worker? What are your challenges and fears? What keeps you smiling? What are you most looking forward to when all this is over?” The museum invites businesses and organizations as well as individuals and families to contribute. Written accounts should be limited to 1000 words and videos to three minutes. The public is also encouraged to send photos showing how their communities were impacted—people wearing masks, long lines at stores, family events being celebrated with social distancing. Submissions should be emailed to bcmcovidstories@gmail.com or mailed to Behringer-Crawford Museum, 1600 Montague Road-Devou Park, Covington, KY 41011, along with the submitter’s

name, address, email address and phone number. The museum oﬀ ered some sample questions to get residents thinking about their pandemic experiences. ❚ How has your daily life been aﬀ ected by the pandemic in regard to your job, your family and your routine? What about special occasions? ❚ Have you visited a store, had an appointment or participated in a “normal activity” during this time? What was your experience? ❚ If you operate a business or are involved with an organization, how has it been impacted? ❚ Is there any other time in your life in which you’ve experienced anything similar to the current pandemic situation? ❚ Do you have stories of others - family, friends, neighbors or strangers - going “above and beyond” to help out during the pandemic? ❚ What do you think is important for future generations to know about this experience?

Behind the Mask: NKY in the Pandemic Behringer-Crawford Museum is inviting Northern Kentuckians to share their personal stories in “Behind the Mask: NKY in the Pandemic,” a historical documentary of life when COVID-19 brought everyday life to a standstill. The museum is collecting descriptions, diaries, photos and videos which show how our world changed when the coronavirus forced businesses to shut down, schools to close and families to self-isolate in their homes.
