Blue Ash meets goals set for 2018 Jennie Key Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

What we reported: Blue Ash oﬃcials set goals for 2018. What happened to them? In January of 2018, The Enquirer asked Blue Ash Mayor Tom Adamec to talk about the city’s goals for 2018. He had several: completion of Phase III at Summit Park, a new summer event launching, adding bike sharing to services for city residents and a continued focus on basic services such as the paving and sidewalk program in Blue Ash. What’s happened since: The city completed Phase III at Summit Park and opened its Observation Tower, dedicated the Children’s Nature Playscape, and extended the park’s trail network. The city talked about SummitFest, a new country music event at Summit Park, and brought Chase Rice and Eli Young Band with special guest Kellie Pickler to the stage for the inaugural event.

The 11-story, 150’ Observation Tower at Summit Park in Blue Ash is nearing completion. It will be a focal point in the 130-acre park that was previously Blue Ash Airport. From the top, viewers will be able to see downtown Cincinnati. At its base is the large elevated stage and great lawn on one side and a stormwater collection pond on the other, which will include the children's natural playscape. LIZ DUFOUR/THE ENQUIRER

The hayloft in the nearly 100-year-old barn that houses the Woman’s Art Club Cultural Centerin Mariemont has been transformed into a large space for art exhibits, classes and movies. A number of charitable foundations ponied up some $500,000 for improvements to the loft at the cultural center at 6980 Cambridge Ave. also known as “The Barn.” Work in the 2,000-square-foot area now called “The Loft” included replacing a 30-year-old roof, adding a dozen large skylights, installing lights, chandeliers and new heating and air-conditioning systems, refinishing the original wood floors and insulating the exterior to preserve the look of the original barn wood. Some 150 people can be seated with unobstructed viewing in The Loft, which also features an audiovisual system with a digital projector and a 10-foot diagonal screen that drops from the ceiling. Two handicapped-accessible restrooms have been built near the entrance to The Loft, which is accessible via a new elevator. Kym Kuenning of Indian Hill, incoming president of The Barn’s board of directors, said more new things are in store for The Loft. “We are planning an upcoming lecture series, as well as a performing arts series in The Loft,” Kuenning said. “We are currently grant-writing to bring other exciting arts programs to this new flexible space.” The high-tech changes at The Barn surely would surprise Mariemont foun-

der Mary Emery, who had the barn built in 1924 as part of her vision for the “Resthaven Colony.” The colony was supposed to be a haven for retirees, who would live in cottages served by amenities that included a working farm. The colony never got off the ground, but a farm with a dairy that was the forerunner of United Dairy Farmers operated there until 1940. Mariemont’s maintenance and tax departments were housed in the barn for a while. Then in 2006, the Woman’s Art Club of Cincinnati created a foundation to raise funds to restore the barn as a cultural center. The foundation continues to operate The Barn, which has a gallery on the first floor in addition to the space in “The Loft.” Despite being named for an art club for women, everyone is welcome to take advantage of The Barn’s offerings, which include artist workshops and

demonstrations, lectures, summer camps for children and cultural programming for families such as performances by the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park’s Oﬀ the Hill touring group, Madcap Puppets and The Children's Theatre of Cincinnati. “The mission of our organization is to stimulate artistic creativity and to provide quality educational and cultural experiences to the residents of Greater Cincinnati and the surrounding communities,” Kuenning said. The Barn also is a satellite campus for the Art Academy of Cincinnati and rents space for artist’s studios, special events and community meetings. Former Mariemont resident Nancy Archdeacon, who was painting in The Loft on a recent weekday, said she drives to the village from her home in Morrow to work on her art, catch an exhibit or attend a workshop at The Barn.

Home decor giant moving in at 2 Sam’s Club sites Sheila Vilvens

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Vacated Sam’s Club stores in two locations are about to be repurposed. At Home stores are expected to locate in the former Sam’s Club locations in Oakley and Symmes Township near Loveland. The home decor retailer already has stores in the Cincinnati area, one in Florence and another in Springdale. A representative from the company could not be reached for comment about its Cincinnati area stores. A Symmes Township oﬃcial reports seeing

lots of activity at the soon-to-be At Home store that will open at the corner of Montgomery and Fields-Ertel Roads. According to company literature, At Home, part of the At Home Group, Inc., is one of the fastest growing retailers in the nation. The retailer opened its 178th store earlier this month in Colorado. At Home is known as a home décor superstore oﬀering more than 50,000 on-trend home products, according to an At Home release. At Home is also the "holiday headquarters" with large assortments of indoor and outdoor holiday decorations.

so it's worth it," Archdeacon said. "It's not only a great building to paint in, but you're exposed to so many great resources." Executive Director Lynn Long of Mariemont believes places like The Barn do more than promote artwork and artists. “The arts connect diverse people, drawn together by a love and appreciation of human creativity,” Long said. “Diversity enlivens communities, and arts appreciation, creation and education provide an important human connection and can bridge divides.

“Creativity is being emphasized by the education community as an important life skill in this fast-changing world,” Long said. The Woman’s Art Club of Cincinnati recently bought LED lights to shine on The Barn’s cupola from dusk until 11 p.m. daily. Before that, The Barn’s cupola was the only Mariemont cupola that disappeared into darkness when night fell, the club said. “We believe in the club’s mission to stimulate artistic creativity,” club member Marie Smith of Over-the-Rhine said of the gift of lights. “That the cupola should become a shining beacon for the arts seems very appropriate to our mission.”

Kids First wants to tear down houses for expansion Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Kids First Sports Center in Sycamore Township wants to tear down six houses next to its existing facility and build a second for basketball, volleyball and other court sports. The sports center at 7900 E. Kemper Road wants to construct a 50,955-square-foot building on nearly four acres of ground that would be rezoned after razing single-family homes at 7944 and 7956 E. Kemper Road and at 11663, 11673, 11683 and 11687 Solzman Road. That’s according to paperwork filed with Sycamore Township by Brian Doll of Cincinnati United Contractors Inc., which is headquartered in the township. Kids First Sports Center also wants to rezone a parcel at 11693 Solzman Road, which would remain residential in use with the possibility of change in the future. The new zoning Kids First is seeking is planned-office use, the zoning carried by the current facility, whose offerings include basketball, cheering, dance, fencing, karate, soccer, swimming, trampoline, tumbling, volleyball and yoga. “The zone change is within the character and nature of the Kemper Road corridor which has a large commercial office, warehouse, retail, and industrial presence,” Doll says in the paperwork. “Many residential properties along this corridor are being redeveloped for commercial purposes within the vicinity. “The proposed zone change would leave five parcels in the single family residential zone containing residential structures on the corner of East Kemper and Solz-

man Roads,” Doll said. “With the exception of the apartment complex across the street on Solzman Road these properties are heavily surrounded by the ‘F’ (light industry) and ‘OO’ (planned oﬃce) zones.” The new Kids First Sports Center building will be similar in architectural style and color to the existing Kids First facility, Doll says in the paperwork. “The intent is to have a contiguous looking campus that will share parking, circulation, and functions,” Doll said.

“The access to the existing traffic light on East Kemper Road at Northlake Drive will alleviate current safety concerns of patrons entering from and exiting onto East Kemper Road during peak times that coincide with rush hour traffic. “The connection to Solzman Road will allow access to the northern neighborhoods without having to exit onto East Kemper and then turn left onto Solzman after the traffic has cleared,” Doll said. Kids First wants to start work on the new building early next April and finish by November 2019.

Hoxworth declares emergency blood need Chris Mayhew

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Cincinnati's main blood bank has declared an emergency need for donors to give the most universally useful blood type for emergency transfusions. Hoxworth, University of Cincinnati posted an emergency alert on Twitter Thursday of an emergency need for Type Onegative blood. Type O-negative is considered the universal donor to enable emergency blood transfusions, according to the American Red Cross.

Holiday weekend donations were low and the need for blood was high, according to Hoxworth, UC. Hoxworth said the blood bank has 58 percent of the inventory needed of Type O-negative to serve area hospitals. People with Type Onegative are asked to visit hoxworth.org to schedule an appointment to make a donation. Hoxworth has donation centers in Anderson Township, Blue Ash, at the University of Cincinnati in Clifton, Springdale, West Chester, Westwood, and in Fort Mitchell in Northern Kentucky.

Blue Ash Continued from Page 1A

In June, Blue Ash unveiled Zagster, a bikeshare program, allowing riders to rent a ride to favorite lunch spots, Summit Park and other areas of Blue Ash. Riders must be at least 18 years old. For as little as $1, riders can hop on one of 50 bikes located across eight stations in the city. Where are they? ❚ Summit Park I Station between the parking lot and Senate’s patio ❚ Summit Park II Station in the parking lot in front of Senate ❚ Landings Station on Reed Hartman Highway, just south of the Landings entrance ❚ Lake Forest Station on Reed Hartman Highway, just south of Lake Forest Drive ❚ Downtown Blue Ash Station at the Cooper Road entrance to the Veterans Memorial ❚ Ethicon Station on Reed Hartman Highway between the two Ethicon buildings ❚ Blue Ash Recreation Center Station at the Cooper Road entrance of the Rec Center ❚ Creek Road Station at the northeast corner of Creek and Reed Hartman Highway in front of the Extended Stay America The city also followed through on continuing to provide important basic services. Blue Ash’s paving program and sidewalk program both continued to address infrastructure in the city. Blue Ash spokeswoman Breanna Gilroy said the city’s 2018 paving pro-

gram included paving Reed Hartman Highway between Peppermill Lane and Cooper Road, Malsbary Road from Reed Hartman Highway to the new roundabout, Fox Hollow Drive, Cooper Lane, Cooper Woods and Timbers Drive. The city spent $1,379,388 on the paving program in 2018. The sidewalk program is providing connectivity between neighborhoods and businesses to frequent destinations around Blue Ash such as parks, the recreation center, the municipal and safety center, the downtown area and the golf course. New sidewalks were built on Creek Road from Kenwood Road east to Fallsington Court. The city spent $578,973 on sidewalks this year. Blue Ash also has an ongoing program to upgrade traffic signals throughout the city from incandescent lights to LED lights. The LED lights use significantly less electricity, last longer between failures, provide brighter signals and support battery back-up systems at major intersections. Additionally, “count-down” pedestrian signals are being installed at intersections with wide roadways such as Reed Hartman Highway to help pedestrians. The Plainfield Road roundabout at Parkview Drive at the entrance of the new Daventry subdivision is complete. The city’s downtown streetscape project also continued this year, including a new sidewalk on Kenwood Road from Cooper Road south to Ronald Reagan Highway, completing Phase 5 of the project in 2018 at a cost of $907,963.

Whatever happened to plans for vintage sightseeing trains to pass through Madeira, Loveland, Reading and the Cincinnati riverfront? They didn’t get on track this year, and it’s too early to know whether they will leave their respective stations in 2019. “We will be announcing our 2019 schedule around March 1,” said Ray Kammer Jr., president of the Cincinnati Scenic Railway of Lebanon. “There is no guarantee what routes we’ll be operating this year. We’re still working out logistics.” Cincinnati Scenic Railway, a nonprofit organization of train enthusiasts that operates the Lebanon Mason Monroe Railroad, said last March that it planned to expand its service outside Warren County. It proposed stops in the Greater Cincinnati communities, as well as Lima, Greenfield and Washington Court House, under the name “Ohio Rail Experience.” Ohio Rail Experience trains did take trips to Lima, Washington Court House, Springfield and Urbana this year. As for Madeira, Loveland, Reading and Cincinnati riverfront stops, “Keep in mind that if these rides happen, they are considered special events, and not regularly scheduled,” Kammer said. Ohio Rail Experience is partnering with local historical societies to give passengers on railway cars dating from the 1930s to the 1950s leisurely 25-mph rides into the past with an emphasis on historical places.

Viewpoints How to make 2019 the year you succeed Tom Cooney & Crystal Faulkner Guest Columnists Community Press USA TODAY NETWORK – REGION

As we start a new year I want to be intentional about growing personally and professionally. I know you started your own business and work with many successful people. Do you have any advice on this subject? Several years ago, we heard a quote by Eleanor Roosevelt: “Do one thing every day that scares you.” We thought about the statement and wondered: Were we still challenging ourselves as professionals? Did our goals still “scare us”? Have we become entirely too comfortable in our business? When we thought about these concepts we realized that far too often people simply get comfortable with being comfortable. In addition to our traditional CPA practice, we work with individuals and business leadership teams to help them align their vision so that they can execute on their goals to drive value in their careers and ultimately help grow value in the

businesses where they work. The vast majority of people live within their comfort zones. It is those people who push the outer limits of their comfort zone who see the change they desire. We ﬁrmly believe that the more you stretch your comfort zone, the bigger it gets. Ask yourself what you might miss if you don’t challenge yourself. Embrace the concept of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. Write down your goals Unless a goal is written down, it is only an idea. Writing down goals and assigning deadlines helps visualize what you want to accomplish. Having goals publicly displayed also holds you accountable. Display the goals in frames in your oﬃce and home to keep priorities, both professionally and personally, top of mind. If you can see it, you can do it. Make the decision to raise the bar It’s easy to be comfortable with what’s familiar. If we want to grow professionally and personally we must continue to learn skills, gain credentials and work on ourselves. In other words, you may have to do what others are not willing to do in order to stand out in your career. Consider education, books, courses, etc. that could bring value and expertise to your organization or clients. That might mean dedicating time to

studying, taking exams and attending conferences… while still working in your organization. What can you do as a business leader to help your clients and customers succeed even more? The answer to this question will put you on the right course. Identify (and weigh) the pros and cons What will happen if you act and venture outside your comfort zone? Your career may experience growth. What will happen if you don’t? Nothing will change. Measuring the pros and cons of your action and inaction is beneficial when deciding whether to add services, product lines, increase your professional expertise, etc. By weighing your options, you can build equity in yourself and your organization. Fail forward Generally, people don’t think about the benefits of failure. However, if we apply what we learn from our failures, we can use it to practice, improve and try again. Several years ago, we made a proposal to a real estate developer, but didn’t get the business. At the time, this potential client thought our firm was too small. We stayed in touch and continued to send the business owner valuable information that was pertinent to his company. The owner witnessed firsthand

our understanding and knowledge of the real estate industry, as well as our commitment to providing value. Recently, this same individual reached out and hired us to handle his personal and business accounting needs. By using failure as fuel, we were able to set ourselves up for the future. Ask yourself these three questions: Are you truly stretching yourself and your business? Are you constantly learning and developing as a leader?

Employers should be aware of Ode to W-2 scam, protect information

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Sandra Guile Guest Columnist Community Press USA TODAY NETWORK

Before ringing in the New Year, small businesses are encouraged to be on guard against a growing wave of identity theft and W-2 scams. Regardless of the size of the company, the sensitive tax data about their employees is highly valued information and sought after by identity thieves. In fact, this scheme has become one of the more dangerous phishing email scams. The emails appear to be from an executive or organization leader to a payroll or human resources employee. The email will typically start with a simple greeting and then will quickly

escalate with a demand for all the organization’s forms W-2, typically in PDF or spreadsheet format. Because payroll officials believe they are corresponding with an executive, recipients may quickly respond to the email without checking the source, and it may take weeks for someone to realize a data theft has occurred. That is until an employee goes to file their taxes and learns someone else has filed on their behalf. Generally, the criminals will quickly take advantage of the theft, sometimes filing the fraudulent tax returns within a day or two. This scam is such a threat to taxpayers that a special IRS reporting process has been established. Should such a breach occur, businesses are encouraged to report the incident to their employees, to the IRS, and implement their cybersecurity

plan protocol. In addition, payroll service providers may also be requested to file a complaint with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center and a report with their local law enforcement agency. Employees affected by the incident are recommended to take steps to protect themselves from identity theft. The FTC’s www.identitytheft.gov provides guidance on general steps employees should take.

The program combines real-life work experience with training in professional and independent-living skills.

From that start in 1996, Project SEARCH has grown to include programs in nearly every state and in nine countries. We’re blessed that Great Oaks students were among the ﬁrst to beneﬁt from this innovative program, and with our business partners at Children’s Hospital, Fifth Third Bank, and Xavier University, Great Oaks has worked with Project SEARCH to start hundreds of area students on the path to adulthood. Brooke is one such student. She came to Great Oaks in the CareerX program, a career exploration and employability skills program for students with special needs.

a ‘teardown’ After the war, you started out as a dream. A young family was excited to live out in the country, in a small, sleepy village called Montgomery. The family planned and saved every penny. Work began. Money was tight so frills were few. But craftsmen were proud of their work. The tile was set to last 100 years. Hours went into those beautiful plaster walls. Many times, the homeowner did the work himself. It was to be a solid, stout home for a young family. The family moved in, and suburban life began. It was great. It was green and quiet. Mom was home, and the kids could play, explore, romp and shout. It was safe. Most doors went unlocked. Dad worked all day and came home to his cool green oasis. You are being torn down today. They say it’s “progress.” I guess it is, but nonetheless I ﬁnd it unsettling and sad. How much joy and laughter went on in the safe surroundings of these plaster walls? How many tears? Secrets were shared, and newborns brought home to this house. All the joys and dramas, dreams and plans inside these walls. You come down so quickly. Stark contrast to the work, sweat, tears and care that went into building you. Thank you for the warmth and security you gave us. I guess the old dreams ﬂy away. It’s time for a new dream.

Spice it up with fruit salad, Empress chili clone Empress chili clone

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

During the holidays, I had my girlfriends over for lunch. Each of them brought a salad and I made the main entre, a grilled flat iron steak, served room temperature. Even though I didn’t specify what kind of salad to bring, they were all different! My friend Lainie brought a very unusual, winter fruit salad. Spicy and sweet and so refreshing. And remember the reader who wanted chili recipes? I’m sharing a fun clone of a beloved restaurant, Empress Chili. Maybe you’d like to try your hand at it. It contains cinnamon, which is a common ingredient in many of my savory Lebanese dishes. During the holidays, I had my girl friends over for lunch. Each of them brought a salad and I made the main entree, a grilled flat iron steak, served room temperature. Even though I didn’t specify what kind of salad to bring, they were all different!

Char S. sent this recipe with an interesting history. Char said “Several years ago I met a lady on the bus. We used to chat every morning on our way to work. She gave me a recipe for Empress chili. Perhaps your reader might be interested.” Ingredients 2 pounds ground beef 2 small onions, chopped 1 quart water 1 can tomato sauce, 15 oz. 3 garlic cloves, chopped 2 bay leaves 1 teaspoon cinnamon

St. Xavier grad Cliﬀord takes over as QB for Penn State in Citrus Bowl Kyle Brown Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

St. Xavier High School graduate Sean Clifford briefly had his chance to take charge of the Penn State offense in the second half of a 27-24 Citrus Bowl loss against Kentucky on Tuesday, Jan. 1. Starter Trace McSorley was shaken up after being poked in the eye in the first half and Clifford took control of the offense briefly before McSorley returned to the game. ESPN reporter Laura Rutledge reported McSorley was cleared to return to the game in the second half, but threw his helmet to the ground and was seen

limping around on the sidelines. McSorley was described as having a foot injury by the Associated Press. McSorley eventually returned to the game after Kentucky took a 20-7 lead in the third quarter, and threw and interception that led to another Wildcat touchdown and 27-7 lead. Shortly after that, McSorley led the Nittany Lions comeback eﬀort to get to within the ﬁnal score. The redshirt senior quarterback threw for 246 yards and two touchdowns, and the Nittany Lions’ career passing and wins leader also rushed for a team-high 75 yards on 19 attempts.

Ole Fisherman had wonderful holiday season Ole Fisherman George Rooks Guest columnist

Howdy folks, I talked to Cedar Lake a couple days ago and they had some men there fishing for blue catfish. They are putting trout in there the last of February or first of March. The weather will tell when they are open for trout fishing. Talked to Mike this morning and he said there were a few fellers that went fishing this morning. He said the lake was coming up a little, 2018 has been a very wet year. My garden had lots of water from the rain. Last week I had a flock of common grackles here and most of them were

feeding on the ground. There were probably 40 or 50. They would all fly away, then in a little while they would come back. I had another bird I could not recognize so I finally figured it out. It was a cowbird. It was black, and its head was brown with a pointed gray bill. The female is a dull brown bird. They don’t build a nest, they lay their eggs in other bird’s nest. A feller was telling me a few years ago about something that he did. He was showing folks some property he was selling. After he had showed the folks the property, he backed his car in a gate that had some water on the ground and then he pulled out. The folks didn’t know his car was a front wheel drive. The lady said to her husband, that was something that his

car didn’t get stuck or slip in that water. He told me he had a hard time keeping from laughing. He said he never told them his car had the front wheel drive. This lady kept talking to her husband about how the car came out of that hole of water. I got a pamphlet from the mobile food pantry last time and they will be at the Catholic Church in Bethel on Friday, Jan. 11, Feb. 8, and March 8. The time each day is 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. I always help give out the farm produce and when she is not busy, and Paula helps. I had a wonderful Christmas. I had both of my granddaughters and their husbands at my daughter’s house along with her husband and my three greatgranddaughters, one about 12 months old, one 18 months and the oldest is 8 years old. What a day that was.

I give the good Lord thanks and I have a prayer each evening for all of them. I will be blessed with the opportunity to have lunch with both of my granddaughters and great-granddaughters one day each month at Poochie’s, this is wonderful. I got a real surprise this morning. The wind last night blew down a big tree on one of my buildings and two of my raised beds with glass over them. Now I have about four or five trees that have blown down and lots of work. Mr. Chester don’t do that kind of work, he is fine. Start your week by going to the house of worship of your choice and praising the good Lord. God bless all . . . More later . . .

Everyone gets in on the act as the cast of Loveland High School’s The Drowsy Chaperone dances to “Toledo Surprise.” PROVIDED/STEVE KOVACS

Loveland High School brings tireless energy and quality musicality to ‘The Drowsy Chaperone’ Review by Izzy Moses, Highlands High School Cappies Critic Team Combine a wedding, show business, and the roaring twenties and you’ll have Loveland High School’s “The Drowsy Chaperone” a parody of American musicals from the 1920’s. “The Drowsy Chaperone” follows the narration of the lovably awkward Man in Chair, who breaks the fourth wall by walking the audience through the story of his favorite musical. Janet van de Graaﬀ, infamous show girl, is leaving show business to marry a man she barely knows, debonair Robert Martin. Hijinks ensue as a producer and a pair of gangsters disguised as pastry chefs attempt to keep her in the show. The larger-thanlife characters, high energy dance numbers, and the fun pokes at classic musical

theatre troupes is what makes this show a favorite for audiences. Loveland High School’s production of “The Drowsy Chaperone” was held up by the cast’s nonstop energy, picture-perfect visuals onstage, and impressive musicality. Luke Rohling did an exceptional job acting as the connection between the audience and the stage in his character of the Man in Chair. His comedic timing was impeccable, and his personable nature made the most mundane of things about the show interesting to the audience. Anna Colletto exuded the vivacious and lively energy necessary in the role of vaudeville star, Janet van de Graaﬀ. Her outstanding vocals shone through in her belting numbers like “Show Oﬀ” and “Bride’s Lament,” all the while her starlet

smile never faltered. Not only did the leads deliver topnotch performances, but the supporting cast gave the performance their all as well. Daniel Eilert, Joseph Koehne, and Busy Aiken carried a tap dancing number with the utmost showmanship, complete with jazz hands. Merrick Hummer’s bubbly energy as Kitty made her scenes memorable. Aldolpho and the Drowsy Chaperone herself, played by Calloway Hefner and Lillian DeMellia, made for a hilarious comedic duo in the song “I Am Aldolpho.” Impressive vocals were accomplished by Demi Sperelakis as Trix the Aviatrix, singing two spectacular solos at the beginning and end of the show. As far as design goes, this production delivered. Although the list of props was demanding for the show, the props team,

led by Jordan Lawrence, Rose Karl-Chacon, and Cayleigh King, stepped up to the plate as designers, as every prop was in time period. Stage managers Noelle Barry and Sydney Miller kept up with the quick pace of the show, having to barrel through several scene changes. Their effort to minimize the amount of time during a blackout made the show clip move along swiftly. The orchestra of the show was also a highlight, as they created an immersive experience as the melodies carried through the theatre. With so many fun dance numbers and a performance that was ﬁlled with hilarity, Loveland High School’s production of “The Drowsy Chaperone” was a wonderful celebration of humor and the roaring twenties.

From left; Fire Capt. Matthew Flagler, Rotary member Barry Evans of Anderson Township, who chaired the recognition program; Fire Capt. John Raterman, Fireﬁghter Alexis Rodgers, Fireﬁghter Camela Turrin, Asst. Fire Chief Anson Turley, Rotary Club President Rick Flynn of Evendale and Rotarian Bill Stille of Mount Carmel, who sponsored the meeting. PROVIDED/PEGGY HODGSON, ROTARY CLUB OF CINCINNATI

Rotary honors firefighters for valor, service, professionalism “Imagine struggling to breathe and hearing that calm voice telling you ‘Everything’s going to be OK.’” That’s how Assistant Cincinnati Fire Chief Anson Turley described the rescue from a smoke-filled building that led to Firefighter Camela Turrin being honored for valor by the Rotary Club of Cincinnati. Turrin was among four firefighters recently honored at the annual Rotary Awards luncheon at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza Hotel. The awards celebrate significant achievement in valor, administration, self-improvement and community service. Honorees were: Firefighter Camela Turrin – Valor, Captain John Raterman – Administrative, Captain Matthew Flagler – Self Improvement and Firefighter Alexis Rodgers – Community Service. The Rotary Foundation of Cincinnati also presented $1,000 to the Cincinnati Fire Foundation. Turrin, a 19-year veteran of the Cincinnati Fire Department, said her actions were part of a team effort. “I am humbled by this award,” Turrin said. “We had a task that needed doing, and I just did my job.” When the fire department arrived at the scene of an apartment fire in Avondale in August, the second-floor apartment was cut off by a fire below. Smoke billowed into the apartment and two women who lived there were coughing, crying and pleading for help. They tried to gulp air through an open window, but wind swirled the smoke and fouled the air. “Smoke is extremely dangerous,” said Turley. “Most people who die in a fire are not burned to death, they die from smoke inhalation.” Turrin climbed a ladder through the smoke to the panicking residents. Speaking in a calm voice, she reassured them, described the rescue plan and guided them down the ladder, shielding each woman’s body with her own as they climbed to safety. “A fellow firefighter said he had never seen a firefighter work so quickly and efficiently to gain a victim’s trust and compliance as they struggled to breathe,” said Turley. Captain John Raterman received the Administrative Excellence Award As one of three Safety Officers for the Cincinnati Fire Department, Raterman has used his knowledge and 29 years of experience to impact individual firefighters’ safety and to improve the department’s efficiency, safety and effectiveness. This year he developed systems for tracking administrative issues and im-

proved the safety and health of firefighters at the scene. He has written job duties and procedures for all fire captains and trained each captain on their roles and responsibilities. He implemented additional accountability measures for the Safety Officer position, improving operations at the fire scene. Turley said Raterman has championed the department’s efforts to address recent studies showing firefighters have increased cancer risk because of occupational exposure. Raterman wrote the department’s fire ground decontamination policy and implemented an exchange and cleaning program for the hoods firefighters wear to reduce possible contact with carcinogens. Captain Matthew Flagler received the Self Improvement Award Turley said Flagler is constantly expanding his skills, enhancing his education and striving to improve his and the department’s effectiveness. The 18-year veteran of the Cincinnati Fire Department stays current with industry best practices and has built a nationwide network in the firefighting community. Flagler has a bachelor’s degree in Fire Science from the University of Cincinnati and completed certification in the rigorous National Fire Academy’s Executive Fire Officer Program. As an instructor, he regularly teaches courses and shares knowledge with fellow firefighters. Flagler recently enrolled at Cincinnati Christian University to obtain a Master of Divinity degree. Flagler was honored for his dedication to increasing his knowledge, skills and spiritual growth to serve others. Firefighter Alexis Rodgers received the Community Service Award She led the 2018 fire cadet program, acting as instructor and role model. She taught the young fire cadets what it takes to be a firefighter and helped them make a difference in the community through service projects. Since joining the Cincinnati Fire Department in 2014, Rodgers has actively engaged in department activities beyond her job description. She is a member of the Mayor’s Gender Equality Task Force to address the work environment for women in the city and is active in the Cincinnati African American Firefighters Association and its many community service projects. She was honored for her community involvement and her impact on the youth of Cincinnati. All the firefighters serve in Cincinnati. The Fire Department does not release the communities where firefighters live. The Rotary Club of Cincinnati initiated the annual Rotary Awards more than a decade ago to honor excellence in key public service professions. The awards honor members of the Cincinnati Police in April, Cincinnati teachers in June, officers in the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office in August and the Cincinnati Fire Department in November. The Rotary Club of Cincinnati was founded in 1910 as a service and networking organization with a mission to provide selfless service in the community and the world and to meet needs of children with disabilities. With close to 350 members, it is the largest Rotary Club in Greater Cincinnati. The Rotary Foundation is its philanthropic arm.
