UC Blue Ash student sees in color for ﬁ rst time, thanks to classmates Sheila Vilvens Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

“I’m scared. What if everything’s gross?” These are the words of an apprehensive University of Cincinnati Blue Ash College student. Any fears Savannah Allen of Burlington, Kentucky, had quickly faded to tears of joy when a special pair of glasses gifted to her by classmates enabled her to see color for the fi rst time in her life. The moment was captured on video. “You guys are so beautiful,” she said to her dental hygiene program classmates. Her classmates were inspired to take action after learning that Allen’s participation in the dental hygiene program was in jeopardy due to her color blindness. Being able to properly view a patient’s teeth and gums for indications of decay or disease is an important part of a hygienist’s job. As a fi rst-year student in the dental hygiene program, Allen’s inability to see colors didn’t pose a challenge until she began treating patients in the Dental Hygiene Clinic, according to the college. When Allen’s instructor realized she couldn’t distinguish the diff erent colors, she raised concerns about whether a future in dental hygiene would be possible. “When we heard that she may not be able to continue, we said ‘we’re not having this,’” said Gabby White, one of Allen’s classmates. She and three other students in the program researched treatment options for people who are color blind. Then they started a Go Fund Me page to raise the needed money for special glasses to help Allen see colors. The group launched the fundraising project and had support from all of the 40 or so students in the fi rst-year class. “It was really great to see the stu-

dents come together for Savannah. They did this all on their own,” Luke Burroughs said. He’s an assistant professor of dental hygiene at UC Blue Ash, and the instructor for the ﬁ rst-year students. The classmates surprised Allen with the glasses during a recent class and watched her reaction to seeing colors for the ﬁ rst time. “It literally took my breath away,” Allen said. “I haven’t seen color in 21 years. It was overwhelming.” That her classmates would do something like this for her was amazing, Allen said. “The glasses have improved my quality of life 100 percent,” she added.

A new Miss USA was crowned Thursday night and while Miss Ohio didn’t take home the crown, she made us proud.

Alejandra Gonzalez of New Mexico was the ﬁ rst-runner up, and Oklahoma’s Triana Browne the second-runner up during the competition.

Thank you to every single person who has made this possible, I wouldn’t have been able to do this without my insane support team! I love you all,” Magoto said on Instagram. Magoto won the Miss Ohio USA title in November. She also competed in the Miss America pageant in 2016. During the competition, Magoto was one of two contestants who swapped out the standard bikini for a ﬂ oral onepiece suit. Magoto and Miss Iowa wore oneshouldered monokinis that covered up a bit more skin, but still had a cut-out at the waist, according to USA TODAY. USA TODAY contributed to this article.

Loveland woman’s kids’ book teaches love and kindness Chuck Gibson

Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Kay Bolin served as Loveland Valentine Lady in 2018 and in March 2019 released her debut children’s story, “Luce the Goose: Searching for Love,” selfpublished by Author House It all started when Bolin looked out her kitchen window one day and saw a goose standing next to her shiny black car. “It looked like he was staring at his own reﬂ ection,” said Bolin. It continued for days until Bolin wondered if the goose was looking at himself

thinking the reﬂ ection was another goose, a friend maybe. She couldn’t know what “Luce” the goose was seeing or thinking. The goose could not speak, but this extraordinary goose found a way to share a very special story with Bolin, and her husband Tim. She knew it was a story which had to be shared with others. “It happened for a reason,” Bolin said. “No way this story happens in real life if it wasn’t meant to be shared, to teach, for people to know.” Bolin wanted to write it, but struggled to get words on paper in her ﬁ rst attempt writing a children’s book. Being

chosen the 2018 Loveland Valentine Lady a couple years later was a big help. She shared the story with about 1,200 school kids and teachers in the classrooms of Loveland Elementary, Primary School, and Loveland Early Childhood Center fulfi lling her responsibility to read a book or share a story with the kids. “The fi rst thing that came to mind was ‘Luce’” she said. “It was a heartfelt, real story and I had pictures. Bolin had not written a single word, but hoped the school kids would be entertained. She had a message for them, a powerful message she and Tim had certainly learned from “Luce” the goose. “One little girl related how hard it can be to communicate with someone you love sometimes,” said Bolin. “That meant everything in the world to me. No matter how diffi cult it can be, never forget to share love and kindness. It is not that hard.” Their response gave her reassurance, confi dence, and a desire to get the book done. “Luce” wrote the story; all she had to do was get it on paper.

Anti-Semitic speech reported at Sycamore High les told a Jewish student to “go back to the oven.” To counter hate, he recommended diverse literature in elementary schools to foster empathy; open discussions with high school students on how to confront biased-based harassment; and workshops at colleges on privilege, power and interventions in response to bias. Eliana said she’d like to have more classroom discussions on combating hate. Miriam Terlinchamp, a spiritual leader at Temple Sholom Cincinnati and the director of JustLOVE, said hate must be called out repeatedly, “until we are hoarse.” “When I hear about hate words and actions in young people, I understand that usually it is coming from home or someplace where that child is nurtured,” she said. “Hate grows even in places where there is love. So countering hate in young people needs to be handled with loving, clear protest.” For more on enrichment programs, visit websites for the Holocaust and Humanity Center and the Jewish Community Relations Council.

Eliana Garfunkel knew something was amiss from her friend’s expression. Caleb Wright looked appalled. So she removed her earbuds and listened. She heard a classmate, whom The Enquirer is not naming because he is a minor, making anti-Semitic remarks in her sophomore geometry class at Sycamore High School. She said the classmate lobbed some of the hateful words directly at Eliana, who practices Judaism. Eliana, 16, and Caleb, 15, recalled in separate interviews how the classmate pointed at Eliana while calling her and other Jews “disgusting.” Caleb recalled hearing him espouse white supremacist views. Eliana recalled hearing him vow that an organization stocked with other anti-Semites was “going to do something about us.” The attack ﬁ rst shocked and then shattered Eliana. She “bawled (her) eyes out” as she told a teacher what happened. She reported it to administrators. And in the months since the early February incident, she’s reﬂ ected on the moment and its aftermath. How can she, her classmates and her school together drive out the disdain rooted in such words, she wondered. She also questioned the punishment administrators meted out after the incident: two days of inschool suspension for her classmate. His remaining in school made her feel unsafe. If her classmate was willing to say vile things, perhaps he’d be willing to commit violent acts, she thought. So did Leah Leonard, 16, who was not present during the incident but, as a Jewish student, also felt unsafe and disagreed with the punishment. “If you’re scared, how is it helping if he’s at school?” Leah said. Karen Naber, an assistant superintendent and member of the district’s Culturally Responsive Practices Committee, said administrators couldn’t corroborate Eliana’s report, citing a lack of conclusive evidence that “hateful language” was used. But she said the student was disciplined for harassment and disrespect. In addition to Eliana’s report, Caleb said he submitted an incident report detailing what he heard. Naber said issues such as this rarely arise in the district, which educates more than 5,000 students hailing from more than 50 countries. The district tried to learn from the experience with Eliana, Naber added, by inviting leaders from Jewish

organizations to speak with faculty. Staﬀ from across the district also attended a summit on addressing hate and anti-Semitism earlier this month that was presented by the Jewish Community Relations Council. And high school students had discussions on religion during Diversity Week. “It’s important for when schools can substantiate something happened ... to proactively address it with students and parents and be forthright that this isn’t tolerated at school,” said Jackie Congedo, the director of the Jewish Community Relations Council, the public affairs arm of the Jewish Federation of Cincinnati. “Sometimes it’s a one-oﬀ incident, (but) sometimes it’s an indicator of a bigger issue.” Whereas Eliana’s classmate instilled fear in her, she wants the opposite for him, she said. “I think the best approach would be to help him instead of punishing,” she said. “Words are said once. Thoughts can change over time.” No further incidents involving the classmate have been reported. Hate in schools made headlines throughout 2018. Jonathan A. Greenblatt, the CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, wrote last year that biased-based incidents nearly doubled in the nation’s schools in 2017. Greenblatt described how, as hate speech becomes more common, students begin to mimic the vitriol they hear. Greenblatt recounted how students in Los Ange-

Driver in fatal crash was ‘taking glamour shots of herself’ afterward Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

When her mother and grandmother were killed three years ago in an improbable crash, Brittney Miller said she lost the two most important women in her life. “The shock, the grief, the heartache was – and still is – unlike anything I have ever imagined,” Miller wrote in a letter that was read May 1 during the sentencing for the woman responsible for their deaths. Samantha Davis of Norwood – the driver of a pickup that plummeted from an overpass to the highway below, crushing a car and killing Sandra Tell, 67, and Sabrina Miller, 41 – was sentenced to eight years in prison. Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Melba Marsh listed the many reasons Davis should not have been driving the 21-year-old pickup that morning. The rusting, 1995 Dodge Ram had “balding tires,” Marsh said. One tire had been repaired with an aerosol product called Fix-a-Flat. A seat belt was wrapped around a door handle to hold it shut. The pickup also wasn’t registered. And Davis’ driver’s license had been

suspended because she hadn’t paid a speeding ticket from December 2014. Davis, who was heading to her job at a Sharonville restaurant, lost control of the pickup on the overpass leading from northbound Interstate 71 to Interstate 275 west. Marsh recounted the testimony of an Ohio State Trooper, who saw much of what happened in his rearview mirror. The trooper saw the pickup “climb the wall” and then go over it. Prosecutors said Davis survived the Aug. 6, 2016 crash only because of the pickup’s poor condition. She was ejected before it went over the concrete bar-

rier. Miller’s mother and grandmother were driving from Wilmington to Clifton to pick her up and take her to graduation at the University of Cincinnati. In her letter, Miller recalled how she waited for them on her porch, wearing her cap and gown. Marsh read most of the letter after Miller was overcome with emotion. Frustration soon turned to panic, Miller wrote. She met with her uncle in a CVS parking lot. That’s where police oﬃ cers met them, to tell them what happened. “I will never forget words they said and the look in my uncle’s face,” Miller wrote. Davis, who has two young boys, read a statement in court, saying she feels guilt for having survived. “I mourn with you,” she said to Miller’s family. “I wish I could just hug you and comfort you and take away all your pain.” Hamilton County Assistant Prosecutor Seth Tieger said he didn’t believe Davis’ remorse was genuine. At the hospital, after the crash, Tieger said Davis was “taking glamour shots of herself.” He also noted that in her clothing she had stashed a straw and prescription pills to “snort at work later that day.”

After more than 25 years at the school, Ursuline Academy President Sharon Redmond will leave her position at the end of June, the school’s

Greater Cincinnati High Schools celebrate theater at Cappies Gala on May 23 The ballots have been cast and the votes are in. On May 23 at the Aronoff Center for the Arts, local high school students will be recognized in a Tony’sstyle awards ceremony for their accomplishments in theatrical performance, technical theater and writing. The nominees have been announced at cincicap.com/nominees. The annual Cappies Gala, organized by the Cappies of Greater Cincinnati, celebrates the hard work of high school theater departments across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. This year, more than 150 student critics from 19 local high schools were involved in the local chapter of the international Critics and Awards Program. To complete the program, students must attend at least fi ve theatrical performances at other high schools and write constructive reviews. At the performance, the students participate in a teacher-led workshop where they learn the history and background of the show, participate in structured discussion about their observations, and determine which students should be considered for nomination for various awards categories. Top-ranked student reviews from each performance are featured on the Cincinnati Enquirer website (accessible at cincicap.com/reviews). For the 20182019 season, more than 880 reviews were written by student critics. Cappies critics who completed the program requirements voted earlier this month on the students, ensembles, and technical crews they feel should be recognized at the annual Cappies Gala. Students nominated for a Cappie Award are in the top six in the region. Nominees were announced to participating schools via social media as part of the organization’s fi rst annual Nominees’

Information, as well as sponsorship and program advertising details, can be found at cincicap.com/gala. The Critics and Awards Program strives to recognize Greater Cincinnati’s talented community of young writers, performers, and technical crews. High school theater and journalism students

who participate in the Cappies program are trained as critics, attend shows at other schools, and write and publish reviews. At the end of the school year, the student critics vote to give awards to their fellow students for outstanding productions, group and individual performances, and achievements in technical categories.

The girls gave their teachers container herb gardens. A few had questions about growing herbs in containers. I’ve had requests from some of you about the same subject, so I thought it a timely topic. Although I grow most herbs in the ground (give me a hoe and a patch of land and I’m a contented woman), growing herbs in containers is doable and budget friendly. Mother’s Day is coming up. How about a container herb garden for her? Here are tips on growing kitchen favorites, including newer varieties, that thrive in containers. Pots/Soil. The most important element? Drainage and lots of it. Width, height and depth should accommodate the root system. Herbs grow well in soilless mixes. Go multiple. Plant several herbs together as long as growing requirements match. Do you like edible ﬂ owers and salad greens? Tuck some in! Sun exposure. Most herbs love sun, while others tolerate some shade. Read labels! Watering. Herbs in pots need watered more often than in-ground herbs since they don’t have enough soil surrounding them. Most herbs prefer to dry out slightly between waterings. Fertilizing. Augment about halfway through the season unless your mix already contains enough. Go easy here. Like too much watering, too much fertilizer produces lush

growth with little fl avor. Pruning. See a fl ower forming? Pinch it off and use. Pruning allows plants to continue to put energy into leaves. Harvesting. Volatile fl avors are highest when blooming starts. But no worries. They’ll still have fl avor all season long.

to seed. My family’s tabouleh has lots of fresh parsley. Thyme. Cooks adore this peppery, perennial herb. Both bush and trailing thymes are suitable for containers. No need to chop thyme leaves. Just strip them from stem. Rosemary. This tender perennial can take some drought. Its piney ﬂ avor is delicious with roasted potatoes and grilled meats. Sage. Annual variegated sages with small leaves lend texture and color. Wrap pork tenderloin with sage leaves and prosciutto. Tuck leaves under poultry skin.

Kitchen herbs for containers Basil. Try minet or globe varieties of this annual herb for smaller containers. Leaves are small so no need to chop. Common sweet basils, as well as a new sterile ﬂ ower variety, Amazel basil, grow well in larger ones. Toss some basil leaves into green salads. Chives. Both onion and garlic chives are perennial herbs that are happy in

pots. Their fl owers make lovely vinegars. Cilantro. An annual that loves sun but hates heat. Try a slow bolting variety. Make successive plantings. Add during last few minutes of cooking. Vietnamese cilantro is a good substitute that takes the heat. Mint. If there’s one herb that should be in a container, it’s mint. Yep, it’s that invasive. Spearmint is sweet while peppermint is pungent. So many varieties! Thai mint makes stir fries pop. Oregano. Greek is the gold standard of this perennial herb; for smaller pots, golden oregano is a good choice. Think pizza! Parsley. The classic garnish, this biennial herb sends leaves up the fi rst year and the second it fl owers and goes

Local high schools are some of the best in Ohio and Kentucky according to a new report from U.S. News and World Report. Five local schools from Kentucky and six local schools from Ohio made it into their state's respective top 30 rankings. U.S. News ranked 17,245 public high schools and reviewed more than 23,000. The highest ranked U.S. public schools in U.S. News & World Report's 2019 Best High Schools rankings are those whose attendees demonstrated "outstanding outcomes above expectations" in math and reading state assessments, passed a diverse array of college-level exams and graduated in high proportions.

Jimmy Fallon had something to say about Walnut Hills High School students April 24 on his show. The Walnut Hills students have cornered the market on perfect ACT scores. Cincinnati Public Schools announced that 17 students had earned a perfect score on the ACT. A perfect Fallon score is a 36. An additional 23 seniors f missed the mark by a single point. On the episode of the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, the host said he thought it was “kind of weird.” In the bit, he showed three stock pictures of ‘students’ and quoted them each as saying “Well I mean it took a lot of mental prep. It wasn’t wasn’t, but I studied a bunch and it paid oﬀ .” Then one “student” admitted they cheated oﬀ the smart kid.

Sports Local teacher Bryce Carlson:

Mariemont From record row to the ﬁ rst-ever Flying Pig 5-Way a lacrosse power regardless of size Adam Baum Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Bryce Carlson’s last adventure took 38 days, six hours and 49 minutes when the Seven Hills science teacher rowed 2,000 miles last summer in record time from Newfoundland, Canada, to St. Mary’s in England’s Isles of Scilly. The voyage was well-documented as Carlson became the fi rst American to row solo and unassisted across the North Atlantic. It was an ambitious expedition, but the destination wasn’t the end of Carlson’s personal exploration. Carlson’s most recent accomplishment came much closer to home and didn’t take nearly as long. He completed the fi rst-ever Flying Pig Marathon 5-Way on Sunday. He’s the fi rst participant, according to the Flying Pig, to complete the onemile race Friday night (5:32), the 10K (45:24) and the 5K (20:42) races Saturday, and on Sunday, he ran the half marathon (1:55:26), then went back to the starting line and ran the full marathon. “After the adventure this last summer, I needed and wanted to take some time away from training and just let myself recover, dive back into my work as a teacher and a coach,” Carlson told The Enquirer. “I think around January, February, March, the desire to start to do something again, to build towards something and take on a challenge started to kind of bubble up a little bit. “The Pig is such an iconic sporting event in the Midwest. As a Cincinnatian, it has even greater signifi cance and I wanted to be a part of that race weekend again and I started to think, ‘Well, how can I get involved in race weekend again in a way that’s maybe a little bit bigger, a little more fun.’” The more he thought about it and played with the logistics, the more excited he became about trying something that’s never been done in the 21 years of the Flying Pig. Carlson said he met with race organizers to fi gure out how it would work. They came to an agreement that Carlson’s fi nish time for the half marathon will be his start time for the full marathon. “It was a lot of fun to experience something no one here in Cincinnati at the Flying Pig has experienced before,

six hours. For Carlson, that’s a drop in the bucket. “There’s a race in Greece called ‘Spartathlon’ that I’ve competed in twice and that’s 153 miles nonstop,” said Carlson. “So that’s the farthest I’ve run nonstop, but that took me like 31 hours.” So, what’s Carlson’s motivation for these grueling challenges and adventures? “For much of my adult life and if you asked my parents back into my adolescence and childhood, I’ve always enjoyed embracing challenges,” said Carlson. “I love the adventure of a new challenge, taking on something that I’m not

MARIEMONT - The nine miles on Wooster Pike (U.S. 50) between Terrace Park and Mariemont may be the most fertile local ground in Ohio high school lacrosse. Mariemont High School, which has all of 197 boys based on the most recent calculations used by the Ohio High School Athletic Association, is the top Division II team in the state of Ohio. For perspective, Division II is any school with 479 or fewer boys. Any school with 480 or more in lacrosse is considered Division I. For more perspective, coach Steve Peterson’s Warriors have defeated Moeller with an enrollment of 785 and have played or will play St. Xavier (1,178 with 1,539 for competitive balance purposes), Milford (819) and Elder (738). “We’re a small school but we always say it’s not how big you are, it’s how big you play,” Peterson said. “We try to play big. We want to play the best people so that we can be prepared for the state title. That’s what our goal is.” Their losses have come to Chicago powerhouse Brother Rice, who has around 1,500 males, St. Xavier and Bishop Watterson out of Columbus with 372 boys. Brother Rice just recently beat St. Xavier 12-11 and defeated Mariemont 15-5 in a game that was tied 3-3 at halftime. “They’re all big, strong teams with deep benches,” Peterson said. “The stick is a great equalizer and so is your heart. We play very hard as a team and we have good sticks and we support each other. That’s what gets us through I think playing those big guys.” Brother Rice is the second best team in the Midwest, according to Peterson. After the 3-3 halftime tie, the deﬁ cit

but I hope it really sets an example for others for what’s possible,” said Carlson, moments after crossing the ﬁ nish line. As accomplished as Carlson is on the water, he’s just as polished on land. Sunday was Carlson’s third time running the Pig, but he said he’s run “north of 150” marathons. “Back when newspapers were a little more prevalent I was a paperboy for a number of years and in order to get back to playing with my friends as soon as possible, I’d often run my paper route, tuck the papers under my arm and run from doorstep to doorstep so I could ﬁ nish quicker,” said Carlson. It might be hard for some to wrap their heads around Carlson’s Sunday. He ran a total of 39.3 miles in just over

CHCA’s crushing cousins lead Eagles baseball, softball Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

MASON - A pair of freshman at Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy are tearing up local ballﬁ elds and getting their names on the college recruiting radar. Caden Crawford and Finley Payne, whose mothers are sisters, have been kissing baseballs and softballs goodbye on spring nights for the Eagles of CHCA. Caden was called up from junior varsity early in the season and has played ﬁ rst base/designated hitter for Tony Schulz and the baseball team. Finley is pitching and blasting the ball for Diane Barghini’s softball Eagles. Barb and Roy Payne are the parents of Finley, who is probably good enough to play boys baseball, but softball is her love. They used to live near her mother’s house that had a huge yard. It was there that Caden Crawford also played, the

son of Barb’s sister Becky Crawford. With the occasional help of Roy Payne who played some baseball, Finley and Caden grew up more like brother and sister than cousins, competing over who threw the hardest, hit the furthest and could ﬁ eld a ball of any size. “Me, her and her Dad used to play out in the backyard all day,” Crawford said. Now at ages 15 (Caden) and 14 (Finley) the cousins are showing the fruits of their labor. Caden has been one of CHCA’s top hitters. He’s mainly hitting for now, but can play elsewhere and also pitches for his summer team, the 15U Cincy Flames. “Caden’s taken his opportunity and run with it, earning everything he’s got,” Coach Schulz said. “It’s been good for us. We’ve got a pretty good freshman class. We’ve got a couple other freshman that have got some varsity time this year which hasn’t happened a ton in

this program. Caden’s done a fantastic job making the adjustment.” For those watching just one round of infi eld for CHCA softball, it’s easy to pick out which girl is Finley Payne. A player for the Ohio Hawks in summer, she’s been dominant in her fi rst year with the Eagles and leads most of the Miami Valley Conference in many statistical categories (average, home runs, runs batted in, ERA, wins, strikeouts and stolen bases). “Once I hit two in one game which was pretty awesome,” Payne said of her home run prowess. “I look to hit the ball hard and if it goes, it goes. It’s just the best feeling in the world.” Crawford has also popped a pair over the wall in one game, doing it against Lockland. His strategy is to jump on the fi rst fastball. His swing success is relaSee COUSINS, Page 2B

was 7-5 at the end of three quarters, but the Warriors fell fl at in the fi nal frame. They followed the next day with Turpin also (Division II) and prevailed 16-9. However, Peterson wasn’t pleased to see a 12-3 lead whittled down with many shots off target in the second half. “You can’t have that if you want to win the state title,” Peterson said. “We always have to execute our game plan. We didn’t fi nish out shots. You can’t shoot the ball into the goalie’s stick.” As for Turpin, coach Gary Pottebaum recognizes the Mariemont talent even when they’re not on their “A” game. Not every school has a feeder program like Mariemont and the experience shows on the fi eld. “They start playing together in kindergarten, fi rst grade and second grade,” Pottebaum said. “So, you see incredible chemistry. When somebody moves, somebody fi lls that spot. When you think you’re playing good defense, you get broken down. There’s this mystique about them. Sometimes beating that mystique is every bit the battle as playing the game.” Mariemont has won Ohio state championships in 2013, 2014 and 2017 (fi rst OHSAA-recognized title). To boot, the Mariemont girls won last season’s OHSAA title under Kevin Ferry. Long-time assistant Graham Harden assists both squads. Steve Peterson’s Warriors were 37-6 over the last two seasons coming into this season where they’re expected to make another postseason run. In their own Cincinnati Hills League, they’ve demolished Taylor 17-0, Indian Hill 16-5 and Wyoming 14-4. From here on out, the competition is rigid. “I would say every team in the playoff s is always tough and anyone can beat anyone any given day,” Peterson

tively simple. “Conﬁ dence,” he quickly replied. “Just have conﬁ dence. I have good friends that are welcoming on varsity. I’ve got some good friends who push me to do my best.” Crawford and Payne came up through CHCA elementary and junior

said. “There are very good teams in Cleveland, Toledo and Columbus, very good teams that want to win as much as we do.” Four current Warriors will continue in college including defender Charlie Cowart, who will head west to Air Force.

On attack, Braden Bortz and Josh McClorey will go to DePauw in Indiana with midﬁ elder Wally Renie following them there for football. Tournament games begin May 13 for Mariemont with the Division II state semiﬁ nals May 29 and the champion-

ship set for June 1 at Ohio Wesleyan University. “When the talent is equal the team that plays harder usual wins,” Peterson said. “That’s really what we try and strive for.”

through training and preparation. I love that with a challenge you can identify either an experience you want to have, or you can identify a character trait that you would like to embody and you can put a plan in place to become that person. I just love that idea. “Then, there’s just the joy of the adventure itself. Any new challenge represents a new experience. It’s a new story.

I think these challenges help me understand other people. The more we stretch ourselves and struggle I think the more empathetic and compassionate we become. “It’s easier to understand the struggles of others. I think there’s a humility and compassion that comes with and is developed through the pursuit of these challenges.”

Carlson said his next adventure will be an organic process. He has no plans right now. He is signed up for two more footraces this summer. He’s running a trail race in June in Oregon, then another trail race in August in Washington state. The ﬁ rst is a 100-mile race, the other is a 200-mile race.

high. Payne fi rst asked Coach Barghini if she could play softball in fi fth grade. Crawford used to watch accomplished CHCA pitchers Cam Varga (former Tampa Bay draftee) and Griff an Smith (Ohio State). “She’s told me stories of growing up and being with Caden and how competitive they are with each other,” Coach Barghini said of Payne. “She’s very special. Everybody respects her on the team. They didn’t make her earn that spot. She comes in with the right atti-

tude. Even on a recent off night for CHCA baseball, Caden Crawford and family came to watch Finley and the Eagles softball crew at Snider Field. Long after the game was over and dusk was setting in, the only two left on the fi eld were Payne and Crawford, playing like they did as kids in grandma’s back ball orchard. Both took turns fl ipping a ball for the other to send into orbit. At most schools and in most leagues, it is rare for freshmen to have major im-

pact on a squad. Though she considers her main position shortstop, Payne’s pitching numbers are dominating and should only get better. Both Payne and Crawford are also multi-sport athletes, so you may see them in purple and black for CHCA in other events in coming seasons. The cousins have been asked to come out for basketball and Payne has also dabbled in tennis and lacrosse. For both, anything involving handeye coordination is related.

Laurie Gordon awarded Loveland Rockwood Award Laurie Gordon was awarded (posthumously) the Louis G. Rockwood Community Service Volunteer Award given annually by the City of Loveland. The award seeks to recognize the time and accomplishments of volunteers serving the City. Mrs. Gordon was the 2016 Valentine Lady of Loveland, volunteered in the Loveland schools for many years and participated in numerous organizations. She was an active member of the Loveland Presbyterian Church, the Loveland Woman’s Club, Ladies of the Round Table and was a board member of the Greater Loveland Historical Society. In nominating Mrs. Gordon, Councilwoman Angie Settell stated, “not only did she make Loveland her home, she embraced Loveland and distinguished herself for the many good works and unconditional love she displayed for family and friends.” Although she was born in Detroit Michigan and lived in numerous cities, she and her husband Bruce Gordon returned to Loveland and lived here for 45 years. The Rockwood Award was presented to Laurie’s husband Bruce at a recent Loveland City Council Meeting. Angie Settell

The Library Foundation of Cincinnati and Hamilton County is the recipient of one of the grants handed out by the Charles H. Dater Foundation. The Library Foundation was awarded $50,000 to support the Homework Helpers program. “Homework Help is an essential tool the Library oﬀ ers to students in the community who can’t aﬀ ord to hire private tutors,” said Paula Brehm-Heeger, the Eva Jane Romaine Coombe Director of the Library. “We want to give every child who comes into the Library opportunities to succeed in school.” The Homework Helpers program provides free help to K–8 students. Homework Helpers, many of whom are retired teachers, help students with homework assignments and provide skills-building assistance on any subject. Homework Helpers work out of the William Hueneke Homework Center at the Main Library, and at 19 branches where the need is greatest for homework assistance and skill-building coaching. The branch libraries that have Homework Helpers are: Cheviot, College Hill, Corryville, Covedale, Deer Park, Elmwood, Forest Park, Groesbeck, Mt.

Reading, Walnut Hills, West End Branch and Westwood. “We are grateful the Dater Foundation’s mission matches our own to help young people thrive in school and build their skills to achieve success in life,” said Staci Dennison, the Thomas W. Jones Executive Director of the Library Foundation. The Dater Foundation makes grants to nonprofi t organizations in the Greater Cincinnati area to carry out programs that benefi t young people and focus in the areas of arts/culture, education, healthcare, social services and other community needs. “This grant is a great fi t for the Dater Foundation,” said Bruce Krone, Dater Foundation president. “A public library is a perfect location for an after-school homework assistance program. The more students are exposed to the resources that the library off ers, the better off they will be in the long run. Imagine doing homework surrounded by thousands of books. Hopefully a greater appreciation of reading will be an additional byproduct of the program.” The private foundation was established by fourth-generation Cincinnatian, businessman and philanthropist Charles Dater to ensure that his resources would continue to fund worthwhile community programs after his death. The foundation has made more than 3,000 grants totaling over $49 million since its inception in 1985. Learn more at DaterFoundation.org/. For details , visit cinlib.org/homework. Lisa Mauch

Beechwood Home Sporting Clays Event June 7

Gina McCord shows off her shooting skills.

Shooters of all experience levels are invited to join the fun at The Beechwood Home’s Ninth Annual Sporting Clays Event on Friday, June 7, at Sycamore Pheasant Club in Loveland. This annual

gathering beneﬁ ts the 80 residents of The Beechwood Home who have multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) or another neuro-

logical condition. The outing includes training, the shoot, lunch and awards. The targets used in sporting clays are the same as

those used in skeet and trap shooting. However, the clays may vary in size and are thrown from diﬀ erent angles and distances to simulate pheasant or duck hunting. An instructional session is new for this year’s event. For those who want to learn the basics of sporting clays from experts and don’t want to do the entire course, this option includes shells, lunch and all necessary equipment. “This event is a great opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, test your target skills and contribute to a very worthy cause,” says Samuel Bortz, event chair and vice chair of The Beechwood Home’s board of trustees. “Beechwood is one of only two organizations in the country that specializes in serving people with neurological conditions who can no longer live at home. It’s a lifetime home for our residents, whose average age is only 52. We’re lucky to have it in Cincinnati.” Also on the planning committee are Chip Heidt and Dan Shiels. Tickets are $275 for an individual shooter or $1,000 for a foursome, with lower prices for armed services personnel ($250 each) and those age 30 or younger ($200 each). The cost for the instructional session is $50. Register online at www.beechwoodhome.com/ events or text CLAYSHOOT to #41444. Located on Pogue Avenue in Hyde Park, The Beechwood Home promotes residents’ independence and rehabilitation in a comfortable, enjoyable, familylike home with personalized services that foster hope and support. Thanks to the commitment of a group of civic leaders, The Beechwood Home opened its doors in 1890 in a rented house in Mt. Auburn, and moved to its present location in Hyde Park 12 years later. The Beechwood Home has been recognized for excellence in long-term care by many organizations over the years. As people live longer and the need for The Beechwood Home’s services grows, Beechwood looks forward to oﬀ ering specialized expertise and welcoming new residents for generations to come.
