City strikes deal to sell land to FC Cincinnati Sharon Coolidge

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

City offi cials have agreed to sell a Cincinnati Police Department parking lot to FC Cincinnati, a deal worth at least $8 million to taxpayers. The team needs the land for its stadium in the West End. For weeks, the city and the team have been arguing about how much the deal should cost. FC Cincinnati President and General Manager Jeff Berding said paying to reconfi gure the police parking lot across the street from District One, at a cost of roughly $800,000, was enough. Some council members insisted the team must also pay the $1.6 million for which the the land was appraised. Last Wednesday, FC Cincinnati and the city struck a deal. Technically, the land will be sold for $1, but the value of other payments to the city are signifi cant. The details: ❚ FC Cincinnati will build a surface parking lot across the street from District 1, with the cost capped at $750,000. ❚ FC Cincinnati will move the police department’s investigative unit garage from District 1 to District 3 in Westwood, the cost capped at $300,000. ❚ FC Cincinnati will pay the city for 115 parking spots in the Town Center Garage that would be used by police offi cers. The team will pay roughly $55,000 a year as long as District 1 is located there or it will provide the same number of spots in a teamowned garage. ❚ FC Cincinnati would pay $400,000 a year for 10 years in admission tax. While the team must pay the 3 percent tax, if ticket sales bring in less than $400,000, the team still must pay the $400,000. Anything more in admission taxes will go into a fund used for development around the stadium. ❚ FC Cincinnati will be given the ability to lease the Town Center Garage from the city for soccer matches, at a cost of $150,000 per game between 2021 and 2025. After 2025, the cost escalates $10,000 every two years. Mayor John Cranley referred the deal to council committee this week. A full council vote is expected today, along with approval of stadium plans. Those votes will pave the way for the team to break ground. The team plans a $250 million stadium, with almost $35 million of infrastructure help from city taxpayers. “Our proposed agreement with the Mayor and city administration is a good deal for CPD and for taxpayers,” Berding said. “CPD will have the same amount of parking it has now and a new Criminal Investigative Unit facility at District 3. The city will have a guaranteed revenue stream for its See DEAL, Page 2A

Not to make threats, but if the West Side doesn’t step up, the Harvest Home Fair could become a memory. That’s 158 years of tradition gone. No more carnival rides or midway games. No horse competitions or 4-H exhibits. No ﬂ ower or art show. No parade with empty lawn chairs saving prime viewing space along the Harrison Avenue route. Pete Rebold, the fair’s chairman last year, said the fair can’t continue without new people and fresh energy to keep it going.

He said when the fair started in 1860, the Green Township Agricultural Society ran it and The Green Township Harvest Home Association continued the festival yearly after that until 1939. But those folks got old. And as the members of that group began to age out, the younger men of the ﬂ edgling Kiwanis Club of Cheviot-Westwood stepped in. They took over the reigns for the 79th annual fair in 1939. And they’ve been running it ever since. Now Rebold says it’s time for a new group of younger people to step up and move the annual festival forward. A new, separate Harvest Home Fair Association was formed outside of the Kiwanis organization to make it easy for

those new people to take over. There will be a meeting for anyone interested in helping plan the future of the Harvest Home Fair. Rebold said the Kiwanis are still interested in participating, but the group can’t run the show alone anymore. The meeting is at 7 p.m. Feb. 19 at the Carson Lodge in Harvest Home Park, 3691 North Bend Road. The Harvest Home Fair has raised almost $3 million since 1939.

Why Haven’t Senior Homeowners Been Told These Facts?

Keep reading if you own a home in the U.S. and were born before 1955. It’s a well-known fact that for many senior citizens in the U.S. their home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 50% of their total net worth. Yet, according to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 6.1 trillion dollars of unused home equity.1 With people now living longer than ever before and home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted. All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage or “HECM” loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. However, today, there are still millions of eligible homeowners who could benefit from this FHA-insured loan but may simply not be aware of this “retirement secret.” Some homeowners think HECM loans sound “too good to be true.” After all, you get the cash you need out of your home but you have no more monthly mortgage payments.

NO MONTHLY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?2 EXTRA CASH? It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan;2 however the homeowners are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Another fact many are not aware of is that HECM reverse mortgages first took hold when President Reagan signed the FHA Reverse Mortgage Bill into law 29 years ago in order to help senior citizens remain in their homes. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions. For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a

FACT: In 1988, President Reagan signed an FHA bill that put HECM loans into law. huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. That’s a shame because HECM loans are helping many senior homeowners live a better life. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 90% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for any purpose. Many people use the money to save on interest charges by paying off credit cards or other highinterest loans. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a “safety net” for financial emergencies. If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more so that you can make an informed decision. Homeowners who are interested in learning more can request a f ree 2018 HECM loan Information Kit and f ree Educational DVD by calling American Advisors Group tollf ree at 1-855-288-0455. At no cost or obligation, the professionals at AAG can help you find out if you qualify and also answer common questions such as: 1. What’s the government’s role? 2. How much money might I get? 3. Who owns the home after I take out a HECM loan? You may be pleasantly surprised by what you discover when you call AAG for more information today.

Source: http://reversemortgagedaily.com/2016/06/21/seniors-home-equity-grows-to-6-trillion-reverse-mortgageopportunity. 2If you qualify and your loan is approved, a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) must pay off any existing mortgage(s). With a HECM loan, no monthly mortgage payment is required. A HECM increases the principal mortgage loan amount and decreases home equity (it is a negative amortization loan). AAG works with other lenders and financial institutions that offer HECMs. To process your request for a loan, AAG may forward your contact information to such lenders for your consideration of HECM programs that they offer. When the loan is due and payable, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan with interest from other proceeds. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium, closing costs and servicing fees (added to the balance of the loan). The balance of the loan grows over time and AAG charges interest on the balance. Interest is not tax-deductible until the loan is partially or fully repaid. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. A set-aside account can be set up to pay taxes and insurance and may be required in some cases. Borrowers must occupy home as their primary residence and pay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan also becomes due and payable when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, defaults on taxes or insurance payments, or does not otherwise comply with the loan terms.

FC Cincinnati stadium: No more orange glow Sharon Coolidge

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The orange glowing rendering of FC Cincinnati’s stadium is no more. That internal lighting was axed to accommodate neighborhood residents who were concerned and to cut costs, team offi cials revealed last Tuesday to a Cincinnati City Council committee. Council’s Economic Growth and Zoning Committee vetted stadium plans passed to it from the Cincinnati Planning Commission. Council members Amy Murray and Jeff Pastor, two of the committee’s three members, sent those plans to full council this week. Vice Mayor Christopher Smitherman was excused from the meeting. The question now: Will the plans garner council’s approval? Issues remain that concern council members. ❚ The Cincinnati Arts Association, on behalf of several arts groups that perform in Music Hall, has raised issues about noise interrupting performances. The group publicly shared a draft report of a study that showed stadium noise can be heard inside the performing and rehearsal venues. FC Cincinnati offi cials dispute that. A fi nal report is due this week. ❚ The Cincinnati Ballet, whose building is part of land now owned by FC Cincinnati, has reached out to council members, reminding them parking issues with the team are unresolved. ❚ Should Central Parkway, which runs along the stadium’s planned entrance, be closed on game days? Five council members last Monday signed a motion saying it should remain open. Council, in a 5-4 vote last year, approved the project, along with almost $35 million dollars in incentives. That paved the way for Cincinnati to get the

expansion team and triggered the stadium building process. Representatives of the team and the various arts groups attended the meeting and made their cases during public comment last Tuesday. Team President and General Manager Jeff Berding, a former councilman, pointed out the casino and Great American Tower were both approved via the same process without trouble. “There was political support for those two other projects,” Berding said after the meeting. “Hopefully we’ll have that same support. We believe this project enormously benefi ts the neighborhood and community.” FC Cincinnati, which was awarded a Major League Soccer team beginning this year, is building a $250 million stadium in the West End. To do that, zoning changes need to be made to the area. Cincinnati Planning Commission in January signed off on the preliminary plans, sending it to council. During the meeting, architects presented the plans which included the changes. The internal orange lighting is now slated to be more traditional lighting, similar to Great American Ball Park and Paul Brown Stadium, and the building’s facade will be diff erent, said Kim Patton, president of Elevar Design Group. The roof and stadium facades were to be made from ethylene tetrafl uoro-ethylene foil technology that allows varying colors and patterns to be displayed. Now, “It will be less glowing, more downwardly focused,” Patton said. Also new: Two developments slated to be built by the stadium have been scaled back to one development at Wade Street and Central Parkway. It will take advantage of two lager houses below. Above that would be retail space, and on top of that, offi ce space.

West End. It will allow our $250 million stadium plan to proceed, the biggest Cincinnati project in decades.” The stadium is scheduled to open in March 2021, with penalties for missing the deadline. To open on time, the foundation needs to be poured next month. The stadium’s design has changed in recent weeks. Internal orange lights meant to give the stadium a glow have been replaced with traditional sports stadium lighting. Instead of two nearby developments, plans now call for one just north of the stadium at Wade Street and Central Parkway. Other details remain to be worked out. They include where Cincinnati Ballet patrons will park and drop oﬀ children, whether a portion of Central Parkway should be closed on game days and concerns that stadium noise could mar performances and rehearsals at nearby Music Hall.

Test: Stadium noise will interfere with Music Hall Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Remember when the shotgun was fi red inside Music Hall to test whether noise from the coming FC Cincinnati stadium in the West End would impact performances inside Music Hall? Well, the results are back. A draft report from Akustiks, shared with the media Feb. 4, shows noise from a game will be “readily audible by the audience and performers” and will interfere with performances and rehearsals in Music Hall’s Springer Auditorium. “We all have an obligation to preserve the successful ongoing operation of Music Hall ... especially given the recent $143 million investment in its revitalization,” said Van Ackerman, a spokesman for the Cincinnati Arts Association. The Cincinnati Arts Association and Music Hall’s performing resident companies commissioned the study because they’re concerned about noise intrusion from the stadium. A fi nal report is expected before the end of the month. An FC Cincinnati spokeswoman said team offi cials had just gotten the draft report and no discussions with the arts association have taken place. Team President and General Manager Jeff Berding pointed out games are now played at University of Cincinnati’s Nippert Stadium, which is next to the school’s College Conservatory of Music. “The fact is we have enjoyed a tremendous partnership with the University of Cincinnati,” Berding said. “I have never received a single call of complaint from anyone from UC or CCM regarding noise disruption.” West End and Over-the-Rhine neighbors have also expressed concern. “The results for Springer Auditorium are sobering, as they revealed that even

crowd noise by itself can be loud enough to cause intrusion in the house and on stage,” the study said. To blame, the report said, are Music Hall’s lightweight roof and plaster openings in the auditorium for lighting, canopy rigging and the chandelier. The other issue is that Springer Auditorium has been made exceptionally quiet, a key priority of the recent renovation project. As a result, “Crowd noise from soccer matches will be readily audible in Springer Auditorium,” the report said. The model predicts that at its peak, crowd noise will exceed the background noise in Music Hall by as much as 12 decibels. “This noise would ... interfere with the subtle moments of performances by the resident companies,” the report said. The report says although the roof provides some containment of sound, the opening at the center would be large enough to allow signifi cant noise to escape. And that exterior portions of the stadium, dubbed “ribbons” by FC Cincinnati, specifi cally designed to mitigate sound, are constructed of such lightweight materials “they are essentially ineff ective as barriers to noise propagation.” Berding said the stadium’s lead engineer, the Kleingers Group, has assessed sound related to distance between the venues. The closest FCC is to Music Hall’s performance venue is 630 feet. Compare that to Nippert Stadium, where the closest the stadium is to a CCM performance venue is 404 feet. “So when considering the noise model projecting an imagined reality for a stadium smaller in capacity, farther away from arts venues and with an enclosed design, I think the real-world experience of FCC at Nippert Stadium is much more credible,” Berding said.

Prosecutor: Glenway Pony Keg clerk won’t face shooting charges Cameron Knight

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A woman who shot and killed a man during an apparent robbery attempt last month will not face charges, Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters said. When James Douglas, 48, entered the Glenway Pony Keg in West Price Hill on Jan. 23 he would have been met with a large blue sign with a picture of a gun on it: “Warning — This is a victim free zone,” the sign says. Instead of heeding that warning, he pointed a Springﬁ eld Arms 9 mm pistol at the clerk and demanded money, prosecutors said. Deters said Douglas repeatedly threatened to kill her. Surveillance footage shows Douglas walked behind the counter and opened a plastic bag. The clerk opened the cash register and put money inside. Deters said when Douglas turned his back toward a second cash register, the clerk was able to draw her own weapon and shoot him.

Park, tornado relief, donations to St. Francis-St. George Hospital, improvements at community parks, playgrounds at community schools, improvements to the Gamble-Nippert YMCA, and a variety of shelters at parks and other gathering spaces. Last year, exceptionally wet weather caused the fair to lose money, and a GoFundMe account was set up to oﬀ set the loss.

A struggle ensued, but the clerk was able to escape past Douglas while he stumbled toward the door. Deters said Douglas’s gun was loaded, but there wasn’t a round in the chamber, so pulling the trigger would have done nothing. It’s not clear from the footage whether he tried to shoot back. Douglas collapsed in the doorway, shot twice in the back and the chest, prosecutors said. He died at the scene. “As your prosecutor, I have repeatedly said this,” Deters said. “If you go into a store or a home with a gun to rob it, you have forfeited your right to not be shot.” Deters said he will not release the name of the woman since she is not being charged. “I hope the lady involved is OK,” he said. “I’m sure its traumatic for her, but she did what she had to do.” As for Douglas, Deters said the father of multiple children was in “dark spiral” and was desperate for money. “I feel bad for the children of this man, but he brought it on himself,” Deters said.

Rebold doesn’t want to see the fair end. He said it’s a wonderful West Side tradition. But if it’s going to survive, it needs a transfusion of younger leadership with fresh ideas and the energy to make them happen. “It’s a community event,” Rebold said. “If it’s important to the community, people are going to have to come forward to make sure it continues.” Community members can join the Harvest Home Fair Association to be part of continuing the tradition.

Super simple spare ribs and sauerkraut Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Sometimes the most delicious foods aren’t the prettiest on the plate. In fact, my catering partner, Bert, who lives down the road, often said the same thing. I guess what I’m trying to say is food doesn’t have to be gussied up to be both appealing and delicious. The spare ribs and sauerkraut recipe I’m sharing ﬁ ts that category. There’s no

wrong way to cook this super simple supper, and no garnish needed!

Goetta vs. prettles/pruttles and origins of both

Coming soon

Reader Anita B. grew up NW Ohio and enjoyed a “dish similar to goetta called prettles” (I had never heard of prettles/ pruttles). Anita prefers prettles over goetta, which she says are diﬀ erent in that prettles contain no onion, and fewer spices. Anita told me that Dann Woellert, food etymologist, delved into origins of goetta and prettles/pruttles. According to Dann, both goetta and prettles have their roots in the gruetz-

Rosie Kennedy’s brown bread

Goetta update Mary L. shared her mom’s goetta recipe with ground pork and beef. “My mom made this all the time and I like the basic recipe,” Mary said. Check out my website for this.

wurst family of sausages from Germany. Now as far as goetta is concerned, I was always told by my relatives that it originated here. So I’m thinking that local German immigrants developed goetta recipes based on the gruetzwurst they knew in Germany. I’ve reached out to Dann for details and clariﬁ cation. Meanwhile, check out his informative site: dannwoellertthefoodetymologist.wordpress.com. Find Rita’s blog online at Abouteating.com. Email her at rita@com munitypress.com with “Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line.

Spare ribs and sauerkraut No speciﬁ c amounts. Add more or less of any ingredient. Here’s how I made it in my pressure cooker:

Tips Stovetop

Water

Bring ingredients to a simmer, then put lid on and cook until pork reaches 140150. You’ll know it’s done by the color change and how it will almost fall off the bone. This takes about 1 hour after it simmers, or more depending upon the amount of meat and kraut.

Freshly ground black pepper

Oven

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325. Cook, covered until pork is done. This takes about 2 hours or so.

Ingredients 3 pounds pork loin spareribs 2 pounds sauerkraut

Spray pressure cooker. Put ribs in, fatty side down, and sauerkraut on top. Add water, a cup or bit more just enough so sauerkraut doesn’t stick. Add pepper. After pressure is reached, cook 15 minutes. Done. Serve with mashed potatoes. Best ribs to use Maybe you like pork loin ribs, aka baby back ribs. Or the old fashioned, less meaty ribs. How about country ribs, meaty and already cut up? My site has a photo tutorial on varieties and how to use them.

Instant pot, slow cooker, pressure cooker Follow manufacturer’s instructions. To brown ribs or not to brown I don’t, but some folks do. Add a little oil to pot, brown ribs, fatty side down. Then proceed with recipe. Good add ins Like a bit of sweetness? Add up to 1⁄ 2 cup brown sugar. Dice an apple and add that instead or in addition to the sugar.

Sauerkraut and spare ribs is a no-fuss, easy dinner dish. RITA HEIKENFELD FOR THE COMMUNITY PRESS

Many of us think of retirement villages/assisted living/nursing homes as the last chapter in our lives, but for my parents it was a place to call home, where the cares of owning a house faded away and caring became a focus on the individual life. We could not be more blessed to have Bayley as a part of our lives. My aunt was a Sister of Charity and was active at the college. My sisters Kathy, Anna and I attended the Mount. My great-aunt entered Bayley assisted living when the facility opened and was a resident for 11 years. After visiting her often, my parents really liked the care she had received and the independence she enjoyed. My parents raised all ten of us children with conservative values and taught us by example, to treat each other with respect. There are many grandchildren and great-grandchildren in the family and as you can imagine, we all have busy lives. When my mother started showing signs of dementia, our lives changed. After a few years our big home was becoming too much for them to handle and posed a danger for Mom. Dad looked to me for advice and we were able to help each other out. Around this time Bayley had broken ground on the new village. My parents were interested, so when the time came, we sold the house and moved them to a lovely three bedroom in the village, with a view of the lake and a wonderful screened porch. The house was great! Everything was on one level; there were no steps to navigate and it meant safety for Mom. Dad was able to

care for her at home. Bayley made the transition very smooth. Everything was convenient. Their doctor was on the campus and they ended up knowing a few people who already lived there. When Mom needed constant supervision, Dad started taking her to the adult day program three days a week so he could have a break. We were all so worried about her being separated from Dad but she loved it. She was very active there and they kept her busy. As her disease progressed, it became evident that Mom was becoming too much to care for at their home. Bayley had a bed ready if needed in full-time care. We were concerned with how we could help Dad make this diﬃ cult decision. The Bayley family was here for us. They welcomed both my mom into their full time care and my dad as he sat with her. Everyone got to know them and treated them with respect and dignity. And we talked Dad into going back to the Wellness Center pool a few days a week. There he formed a circle of friends and they became support to each other.

all know me here.” I replied, “Oh course they do, you have been here a long time.” Following a recent hospital stay this past July, Dad moved from assisted living to full care. He is in a wheelchair so it is great to have everything close at hand. At times he has utilized the physical therapy department for diff erent aches and pains. On occasion, we still visit his friends at the wellness center. This place is truly amazing. Last June we celebrated Dad’s 96th birthday. Bayley has been a true blessing to my family. Not only have they cared for my parents over the course of the last 13 years, they have made our busy lives much easier. We are able to be with Dad and not have to worry about him. He has caregivers at Bayley who know him and treat him with dignity each and every day. Every single employee cares for his well-being and safety. Bayley exemplifi es the mission of the Sisters of Charity; where staff carries out the Gospel values of respect, honesty and excellence by building loving relationships and caring for God’s children. Joan Mohan

Anything they needed, Bayley was there for them. Bayley always had and still does have our back. When my mother passed away ﬁ ve years ago, we all ﬁ gured my dad would soon follow. No, wait, he still has living to do. There was so much around him that he couldn’t stop. He signed up as a volunteer and helped take to people to Mass every day. We continued to visit him often at his house. He kept up his time at the wellness center and circle of friends. At the young age of 93, Dad started to show signs of slowing down. I mentioned he should think about moving up to assisted living but he did not want to give up his independence. When he was diagnosed with congestive heart failure, he went into Bayley’s rehabilitation care for a few days. When he returned home, we hired Bayley Home Services to help with his everyday needs. This was a tremendous help to us. After Dad’s short stay with rehab, he told me he was ready to go up to assisted living, that his short stay was not so bad and he enjoyed the company of having others around. He said, “They

Kelsey clan’s drive led to Elder, Roger Bacon state titles Mark Schmetzer

Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Kelsey clan spent so much time on Interstate 71 from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s that it could have been named in their honor. Let’s call it Kelsey Drive. From following the 1985 Class AA state-championship Purcell Marian team coached by uncle Jim Stoll — mom Linda’s brother — to watching Pat Kelsey’s Elder team win the 1993 Division I state title to seeing Katie’s Roger Bacon team in back-to-back Division II state semiﬁ nals and ﬁ nals in 1994 and 1995, the Finneytown family piled up the mileage. “Basketball was always a huge part of our family,” said Pat, who played collegiately at Wyoming and Xavier and now coaches Winthrop. “My dad (Mike) played at Roger Bacon and at Xavier. My dad concreted our entire backyard in 1984 and put up the best hoop in Cincinnati. Word quickly spread that our house was open to all comers for pickup hoops. Cars would line the streets many days as people would come from miles See FAMILY, Page 2B

away to hoop at the Kelseys’. White, black, wealthy, poor, young, old — everyone came and everyone was welcome. “The rules were few: No cussing, don’t hit the windows, and no hanging on the rim. That’s how I fi rst met (former Xavier, current Louisville coach) Chris Mack. He dunked and hung on my rim. We got in a fi ght. True story. Ask him. We’re friends to this day.” Pat also played at Northside Knights of Columbus with Mack and University of Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin, whose sister was a Kelsey family babysitter, Pat and Katie recall. After transferring from Roger Bacon to Elder for his senior season, Pat helped the Panthers go 24-4 — with three losses by one point and the other by fi ve to La Salle — and win the state title in Joe Schoenfeld’s second season as their coach. Katie’s future husband, Paul Cluxton, played for the Lynchburg-Clay team that reached that season’s Division IV state semifi nal. “He tells us, ‘Hey, I played in the state tournament,’ ” says Katie, now a mother of fi ve whose ages range from 9 to 16 and attend Elder, Seton, and Our Lady of Lourdes. “We say, ‘No, you didn’t. You didn’t even get to the fi nals.’ ” Paul can fall back on setting an NCAA all-division record by going 94-for-94 from the free throw line in the 1996-1997 season for Northern Kentucky University, where Katie was playing at the same time. Younger brother Mike Kelsey, “Walt” to virtually everybody, followed Katie to NKU and once scored a school-record 50 points in a game. A year after Pat’s championship season, Katie’s Spartans — coached by Tom Singleton — reached the state fi nals, only to suff er a bitter 41-39 loss to Avon Lake on Stacey Fifer’s buzzer-beating jumper that Katie describes as more of a “heave.”

“Still, to this day, we talk about that,” Katie said. “Our goal from Day One of the next season was to win state. Sure, you want to win the (Girls Greater Catholic League), but our goal was to win state. We weren’t going to take anything less than a state title. Coach Singleton was a huge part of our success. I always tell my kids how lucky I was growing up. First, I had my dad as a coach, then coach Singleton, then coach (Nancy) Winstel at NKU. They were hard on us. They demanded so much, but they got the best out of every single one of us. They knew what buttons to push.” Katie, described by her brother as a “stud” who would “rip your face off for a loose ball,” was Roger Bacon’s point guard. “I kind of picked up a diff erent personality on the court,” she said. “I always tell my kids to dive on the loose balls. I tell them to play tough, no matter what you’re playing. I was always one of the smallest players. That’s what my dad instilled in me from Day One.” Led by Kelsey, Anne Schaefer, twin sisters Jenny and Sarah Mueller and hard-nosed defender Stacey Sollmann, the 1995 team fi nished the regular season ranked second in the Associated Press Division I statewide poll. They capped the Kelsey title-game run by romping to a 56-39 semifi nal win over No. 5 Millersburg West Holmes and a 64-48 title-game win over third-ranked Elida. Schaefer led Roger Bacon with 14 points in the semifi nal before erupting for a record nine 3-pointers and 27 points in the fi nal to earn tournament Most Valuable Player honors. Katie was described in the next day’s Enquirer as walking toward the Roger Bacon cheering section holding her right hand in the air and pointing to her fi nger. Pat got the message. She was fi nally getting her ring, too. “I kept telling him, ‘I’m going to get that ring,’ ” Katie said. “I actually have two. I have one from the team that’s kind of feminine and one that my parents got me that’s more traditional. It’s got an emerald ... my birthstone.”

David C. Herriman Fund awards $40,000 in Inaugural Arts Funding Grants The David C. Herriman Fund of Greater Cincinnati Foundation (GCF) has granted its 2019 awards to two regional arts organizations, Know Theatre of Cincinnati and Revolution Dance Theatre. The grants, the ﬁ rst for the fund, will be awarded annually to arts organizations in the eight-county GCF funding region — Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren counties in Ohio; Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties in Kentucky; and Dearborn County in Indiana. They honor the legacy of the late Northern Kentucky

philanthropist and arts patron David C. Herriman, who established the fund for the purpose of “making possible what would otherwise be impossible” for both large and small arts organizations. The awards will particularly focus on new works, the education of youth and performance enhancement through funding to bring in performance artists, directors, choreographers, authors, musicians and other creative artists. “We are thrilled that David’s immeasurable passion for the advancement of the arts in his adopted hometown lives on in such impactful ways,” said Ellen M. Katz, GCF President/CEO. “We are honored to help ensure that his vision will be preserved for generations to come.” Know Theatre of Cincinnati will receive $30,000 to fund its “Welcoming New Voices to the Know” guest residency program for artists of color during its 20192020 MainStage season. The Over-the-Rhine theater will conduct a search for up to four guest directors and/ or designers of color from New York and Chicago to provide fresh perspectives to their audiences and shadowing/mentee opportunities to local artists. Know Theatre is recognized as a “theatrical playground where all are welcome,” amplifying under-represented voices and presenting inclusive productions. Revolution Dance Theatre (RDT) will receive $10,000 to fund its Ballet on the BLOC collaboration with BLOC Ministries to bring high-quality arts experiences and classical dance access to the Lower Price Hill community. The funds will be used to cover professional fees for residencies at Oyler Elementary School and the neighborhood Q-Kidz Dance Team, as well as an extended residency with instructor KaRon Brown-Lehman, monthly events for intermediate and advance level dancers and a performance at Aronoﬀ Center for the Arts. The anonymous committee that considered the funding requests includes a member of the arts community, a faculty member of a local university or college and a person representing a county of GCF’s funding region, a position which will rotate each year between the eight counties. The David C. Herriman Fund of Greater Cincinnati Foundation will award up to three grants – one large, and one or two smaller – totaling $220,000 in 2019. GCF will publish a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the next funding cycle in April. Proposals will be due on October 1. For further information, visit the GCF website at .gcfdn.org/Grants/Private-Foundation-Grants/TheDavid-C-Herrimand-Fund. Darcy Schwass
