till leery about hitting the bars while the pandemic lingers? Then have the bar come to you. Pour Mobile Wine Bar, a new mobile bar service in Cincinnati, will bring a bartender and all the accessories to serve drinks at your next party. And they’ll do it from a 1968 Santa Fe trailer. Owner Zonieke Alston-Betts, 51, hopes to capitalize on the food-truck boom and other pandemicera dining and drinking trends by providing a fl exible, open-air bar service for outdoor weddings, graduation parties and other events. “There’s a whole community out there that I’m proud to be part of providing opportunities for people to move around in wide open spaces and really have a great time,” said Alston-Betts, who lives in College Hill. “We can bring our mobile bar to your home, on the river or set up in the parking lot at a sporting event. The possibilities are limitless.” Pour, which launched in April, doesn’t supply alcohol. Instead, it provides expert mixologists certifi ed through the ServSafe Alcohol program for bartenders and all the necessary bartending equipment, including serving ware, ice, garnishes, and mixers for craft cocktails. Pour specializes in creating bar menus based on each customer’s event needs and preferences. “We can customize the menu to provide pour service for beer and wine only or pour service for a couple of signature cocktails or pour service for both,” Alston-Betts said. “We are really open to being creative and using the space for all event needs.’’ Prices start at about $450 for beer and wine pour service for two hours for up to 50 people, she said, noting she can customize packages to fi t smaller group sizes and budgets.

COLUMBUS – Forest Park City Councilwoman Chelsea Clark announced a Democratic bid for Ohio secretary of state July 7. “I’m running for secretary of state because politicians in Columbus like (Ohio Secretary of State) Frank LaRose have embraced MAGA lies, pushing voter suppression and massive purges from our rolls to stop Ohioans from voting who don’t always agree with them,” Clark says in an announcement video. Clark, 36, was fi rst elected to Forest Park City Council in 2017. She also owns Blue Ash-based Cincy STEM lab, which off ers summer camps and birthday parties that focus on science, technology, engineering, agriculture and math. Clark grew up in Allen County, graduating from Elida High School and attending Miami University where she studied business and political science. She is a sixth-generation farmer, whose family initially grew tobacco but has switched to Black Angus cattle and nearly any vegetable, she said. She is vice-chair of the Forest Park Economic Development Commission and launched the city’s fi rst minority business initiative. Clark also serves on the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority Board. Clark is one of many Democrats who oppose GOP election reform proposals, which would limit drop boxes and eliminate voting on the Monday before Election Day. Clark wants to extend early voting to 35 days, set up automatic voter registration and eliminate voter purges. “It’s a constitutional right. Not use it or lose it,” she said. Clark will likely face a primary as Democrats sort out their fi eld of statewide candidates. The winner will face LaRose, a Republican fi rst elected in 2018. Jessie Balmert is a reporter for the USA TODAY Network Ohio Bureau, which serves the Akron Beacon Journal, Cincinnati Enquirer, Columbus Dispatch and 18 other affi liated news organizations across Ohio.

Clients supply the wine or beer and Pour Mobile supplies the bartending, glasses, napkins, etc. The trailer is parked in Northside when not in use.

“People have gotten use to the idea of eating and drinking outside since the pandemic began and they like it, and that’s where mobile bars have the edge,” she said. Zonieke Alston-Betts

Owner, Pour Mobile Wine Bar

Pour doesn’t need a liquor license because it doesn’t supply alcohol for events, according to Alston-Betts. However, Pour carries general and liquor liability insurance, which is included in the cost of the service, she said. In addition to bartending services, Pour also offers wine tastings, cocktail making classes and classes on pairing bourbon and wine with cigars – even candle-making classes. “I wanted to off er something diff erent,” the owner said. “We are really open to being creative and using the mobile bar for all event needs.’’ Alston-Betts started her mobile bar journey in 2019 when she began working two full-time jobs to raise money for the vintage trailer that she bought See POUR, Page 2A

Man who sold fentanyl-laced heroin sentenced to 20 years in prison Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

On Jan. 14, 2020, Cincinnati police responded to a report of a person unresponsive in a front yard. Offi cers soon found two other overdose victims inside a nearby house. Cincinnati fi refi ghters were able to revive all three people with Narcan. They had overdosed on fentanyllaced heroin, court documents say, sold by 46-year-old Darrell Seay, who was

sentenced July 7 to 20 years in prison. The person who bought the heroin didn’t know it was laced with fentanyl, which made the heroin signifi cantly more potent, prosecutors said. Seay wasn’t immediately identifi ed as the seller. An investigation by a Hamilton County drug task force led to a raid a month later, in February 2020, at Seay’s home in North College Hill. Agents found half a kilogram of cocaine, approximately 65 grams of fentanyl, digital scales, two handguns and more than $75,000 in cash.

The guns along with two loaded magazines were found inside a wardrobe in the bedroom where Seay and his wife slept, court documents say. Also according to court documents, Seay sometimes had his 2-year-old child with him while he sold drugs. Seay initially faced state charges, but in July 2020 was indicted on federal charges that carry longer sentences. He pleaded guilty in March in federal court in Cincinnati to distribution of a controlled substance resulting in serious bodily injury.

Records show Seay has prior convictions for drug traffi cking in Hamilton County. He pleaded guilty in 2003 and 2006 in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court to cocaine possession and cocaine traffi cking. In the 2003 case, after multiple probation violations, he was sentenced to six months in prison. Acting U.S. Attorney Vipal Patel said in a statement that drug dealers prey on addicts. Selling street drugs laced with fentanyl “makes addiction more deadly,” he said, adding: “We will hold dealers accountable.”

More than 20 sewer district crews in fi eld now investigating 450 reports Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date – July 2. Visit Cincinnati.com for possible updates. The Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati had received about 450 reports of possible sewer backups and overland fl ooding around the time of the rains of June 30 and July 1. The reports came from across its service area, with the vast majority coming from central Hamilton County, MSD Director Diana Christy said in a statement. “MSD is actively investigating all reports and has more than 20 crews in the fi eld right now. MSD investigates each report in an eff ort to determine the cause,” she said. “Based on our initial evaluations, many of the reports appear to be due to

widespread overland fl ooding, which is not within MSD’s span of control and is not covered by our sewer backup program." The sewer backup program reimburses property owners and tenants for cleaning services and other claims if the backup was caused by the MSD public sewer. MSD does not cover issues caused solely by overland fl ooding or private plumbing issues. A property owner or tenant who has experienced recurring sewer backups at a property may be eligible for an individualized MSD solution to prevent the backups. Sewer backups should be reported to MSD as soon as possible by calling 513352-4900 or reporting it online at sbu.msdgc.org/sbu. So far as the long-term, Christy said that MSD is performing a study to identify cost-eff ective, watershed-based so-

lutions for chronic sewer backup issues in Hamilton County communities. According to its website, MSD collects and treats wastewater in 43 of the 49 political subdivisions in Hamilton County and small parts of Butler, Cler-

mont and Warren counties. Communities not covered by MSD include Glendale, Harrison, Harrison Township, Milford (the portion in Hamilton County), Terrace Park and Whitewater Township.

last year for $4,000 from a dealer in Shelbyville, Ind. She spent the next year restoring and customizing the trailer with the help of skilled craftsmen at Northside-based nonprofi t art organization, PAR-Projects, where the trailer stays parked when not in use. In addition to two walk-up wooden bar tops, Pour also comes with a 36-bottle wine fridge, a commercial Kegerator with two beer taps and a custom-made humidor that holds about 125 cigars. Pour catered its fi rst event at a ParProject open house, where it served beer and wine. Pour also served “mocktails” at the family-friendly “Mobile Black Wall Street: Juneteenth Festival” held in June at Esoteric Brewing in Walnut Hills. Coming up, Pour has been booked for a launch party for The Scout Guide Cincinnati online city guide and business publication. And inquiries are coming in daily, Alston-Betts said. “It’s still early, but we’re growing and building partnerships and relationships in the community,” she said. Alston-Betts, who operated a dance studio in Denver and a convenience store in Chicago before launching Pour, said she did a lot of research into mobile bars and even networked with other mobile bar owners around the country before launching her latest business venture. She thinks the demand for mobile bar services is here to stay, even as pandemic restrictions lift. “People have gotten use to the idea of

eating and drinking outside since the pandemic began and they like it, and that’s where mobile bars have the edge,” she said. Alston-Betts said her long-term goal is to add another camper to the business, and she has already purchased a 1968 Serro Scotty trailer that she plans to convert to a mobile bar. In the meantime, she plans to upgrade the business with new uniforms and bar kits for the bartenders and an electric trailer dolly to move her trailer into specifi c positions or line it up with the trailer hitch on the truck she uses to tow it. “We’re moving the trailer around manually now, and that can be quite the task,” she said. Alston-Betts said the $2,500 she won for placing second in the inaugural Financial Fortitude Delta Pitch Small Business Grant competition will go a long way toward helping her fi nance future upgrades. The competition was sponsored by the local chapter of the Delta Sigma

Theta Sorority - a historically Black sorority founded on the principles of public service, particularly in Black society. “The women of Delta Sigma Theta have been really active in the community, and I was really honored to be a fi nalist in the competition,” Alston-Betts said. “I’m all about women connecting and pouring into each other and giving back to the community. That’s how I came up with the name for my business. Pour into someone who will pour into you.”

A conversation with Cincinnatinative thriller author David Bell Jeff Suess Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

“I’m always surprised by things in the book,” said USA Today best-selling author David Bell (not the same David Bell who manages the Cincinnati Reds). That’s true even in tightly plotted thrillers like “Kill All Your Darlings,” the latest novel from Westwood native Bell, which was scheduled to be released July 6. “Really the outline is a security blanket, it’s a thing that I can fall back on if I feel like I don’t know where the book is going to go,” Bell said. And “kill all your darlings” is writing advice from William Faulkner, meaning you may need to edit out your favorite bits. Those are the lessons Bell imparts to his students. When he’s not churning out novels, the St. Xavier graduate is an associate professor of English at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, where he directs the MFA program in creative writing. He received his Ph.D. in creative writing from the University of Cincinnati. All that time in academia may have been fodder for his latest book. In the new book, Professor Connor Nye passes off a student’s manuscript as his own after she disappears. Then the student returns, threatening to expose him, while the police wonder why the details in the book are similar to an unsolved murder. Here are some highlights from Bell’s recent chat with The Enquirer. Q: Is writing something you always wanted to do? Bell: “I didn’t get serious about it until I was in my 20s, but it was always in my head that that was something that I could do. … Between my junior and senior year of college, I was back home in Cincinnati for the summer, I realized that I had to have a plan. So I started to really think, could writing be a profession? Not just something I was curious about, not just something that I did for

fun. Could that actually be something that I did as a job as an actual adult?” Q: In “Kill All Your Darlings,” the book that Connor publishes is based on real people and events. Do you draw your stories from your experiences? Bell: “There is nothing in the book directly based on anything that’s ever happened to me or that I have observed, but I’ve seen a lot of diff erent students cross my path, students who are very talented, students who write really interesting things. So the whole dynamic between Connor and his student, Madeline, a student who is more talented than him, and is more capable of writing the book than he is, that’s something that I think writing professors inevitably come across. … “The other part of the story is about the sexual harassment in academia. … There’s a power imbalance between

professors and students. Inevitably some people take advantage of that power imbalance and it’s horrible to students, harmful to the whole university community when that happens. In the wake of the #MeToo movement, we’ve made a lot of strides where we’re trying to be more informed and more aware of this. But obviously, it hasn’t gone away entirely. … ‘Kill All Your Darlings’ is a book that does entertain – it’s a thriller, it’s meant to entertain, to have people turning the pages – but I think the book can also shine a light on this serious issue in academia.” Q: In the book, Connor gets some fl ak from his colleagues who congratulate him on his novel but also say they don’t read thrillers. What kind of response do you get from colleagues and students about your books? Bell: “I have certainly had colleagues of mine make snooty comments – ‘Oh, that’s just a mystery,’ ‘That’s a book you read at the beach. That doesn’t mean anything.’ I’ve had just as many colleagues who are very supportive of my writing, who read the books and buy the books. So it’s a mixed bag. “I think it’s unfortunate that it happens in academia ... that this weird dichotomy has developed where we act like there are these two giant categories. There are serious books that serious people read, and then there are fun, light books that you read at the beach … and those categories don’t overlap. But I certainly think it’s possible that a book can be serious and entertaining at the same time.” Q: You have described your books as about an everyday person who gets thrust into an extreme circumstance. Is that where you start, with a scenario that puts someone into a wild situation? Bell: “Yeah, that’s the way I think of my books. … They’re pretty regular people who have pretty regular, recognizable lives. And something strange, something diffi cult, something tragic happens to them. They are forced then to fi gure out how to navigate that. To

me, that is something that allows readers to relate to the characters. … They can look at these people who are pretty regular everyday people, who are thrown a giant curveball and have to fi gure out to sink or swim through these problems.” Q: Might you set a story in Cincinnati? Bell: “It’s interesting that you ask that. So, I haven’t lived in Cincinnati for 15 years now. … We tend to think the place we grew up is not that interesting. It’s easy to feel like this is the most middle-of-the-country, mundane place. The longer that I’ve been away from Cincinnati, the more clearly I can see what a unique place it is. Growing up in a neighborhood like Westwood, I can see what a really interesting place it was, what a unique culture, what unique architecture, the Catholic infl uence, the German infl uence. … The more I think about it, I really ought to set a book in that kind of neighborhood someday. I don’t have anything immediately in mind. But I think it’s diffi cult to write about a place when you’re there, especially when I grew up there and I was just swimming in that current for so many years. I never saw it quite as clearly or objectively as I do now that I’m older and I’ve been away for so long.”

Add chopped tomatoes to blue cheese wedge salad Nell Wilson’s small batch blue cheese dressing Ingredients 1 cup real mayonnaise ⁄ 4 cup full fat sour cream

2 tablespoons vinegar, either clear or cider Sugar to taste – start with 1 teaspoon Minced garlic to taste – start with 1 heaping teaspoon 4 oz. crumbled blue cheese Instructions Whisk together everything but cheese. Stir in cheese and adjust seasonings.

Blue cheese dressing with buttermilk I didn’t have any buttermilk, so I made my own by adding lemon juice to whole milk. It’s an old fashioned method, sometimes called “curdled milk.” Ingredients Up to 4 oz. crumbled blue cheese (start with half and go from there) ⁄ 2 cup full fat sour cream

One recipe is adapted from Nell Wilson, Ron’s mom. She shared a large batch version a while back. I pared hers down for a smaller amount. The other is another small batch recipe I made today. Both are pretty creamy and can transition into dips, too.

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

Well, colleague and garden expert Ron Wilson held true to his promise about the tomato named “July 4.” “You’ll have ripe tomatoes by July 4,” he told me earlier this spring when I planted the tomatoes. Truth be told, I was a bit skeptical. But take a look at the photo of these tomatoes taken, yep, on July 4. Ripe never looked so good. This July 4 hybrid is not a large tomato, but it bears all season long. If I would have had enough, I would have made a tomato mozzarella tart recipe to share. That will have to wait, though. I did have plenty as a topping along with red onion, hard-boiled egg and bacon for a favorite wedge salad with blue cheese dressing. If you’ve never added chopped tomatoes to a blue cheese wedge salad, I hope you try it. Yummy!

1 ⁄ 3 cup buttermilk (store bought or make your own: add 1 teaspoon lemon juice to whole milk, let sit a minute or so to thicken/curdle before using)

1 small clove garlic, minced, about 1 teaspoon ⁄ 2 teaspoon dry mustard

Salt and pepper to taste

What makes blue cheese “blue”

Worcestershire sauce – a dash or so (optional)

Blue cheese is sometimes called bleu cheese. The cheese can be made from cow’s, sheep’s or goat’s milk. There are lots of varieties, from the less expensive blues to the pricey Stilton blue. The cheeses range from mild and somewhat creamy to very sharp, salty and crumbly. The cheese gets its blue streaks from, of all things, the Penicillium culture. They’re injected either into the curds or into the formed cheese.

Instructions Whisk everything but blue cheese together until well blended. Stir in cheese. Cover and refrigerate several hours for flavors to meld. To serve:

Freeze it

Cut very crisp iceberg lettuce into wedges. (I soak wedges in ice water, then drain well).

Blue cheeses can be frozen for several months. The texture will be more crumbly.

Top with dressing, and sprinkle on bacon, red onion, hard boiled egg and chopped tomato and extra blue cheese if you want.

Suspect arrested in slaying of golf pro Gene Siller, a Colerain grad, 2 others ASSOCIATED PRESS

KENNESAW, Ga. – Authorities have arrested a man in the killing of three men found shot to death on the golf course of a suburban Atlanta country club. One of the victims, golf pro Gene Siller, was a 1992 graduate of Colerain High School. Cobb County sheriff ’s deputies and U.S. marshals arrested Bryan Rhoden in Chamblee, more than 25 miles southeast of where the slain men were discov-

ered July 3, Cobb County Police Chief Tim Cox said during a news conference July 8 evening. Rhoden faces three counts of murder, three Gene Siller counts of aggravated in 1992. assault and two counts MINDY CORRELLof kidnapping, Cox said. SMITH/PROVIDED The police chief described Rhoden as the “lone shooter” in the slayings, but he declined to give further details about what prompted the violence.

“We literally had detectives that have worked around the clock and some have literally slept in their offi ces since July 3rd trying to clear this case,” Cox said. Police say Siller was gunned down July 3 when he went to fi nd out why a white pickup truck had driven onto the 10th green at Pinetree Country Club in Kennesaw, northwest of Atlanta. Two other men were found dead from gunshot wounds in the bed of the pickup truck. Police identifi ed them as 46-year-old Henry Valdez of California and 76-year-

old Paul Pierson of Kansas. Investigators believe that Siller, 46, was slain because he came upon a “crime in progress,” police have said. It doesn’t appear that he was targeted, and the other men appear to have “no relation to the location at all,” police had said in a statement. Pierson was the truck’s registered owner. Police haven’t commented on any possible motive for the killings of the two men whose bodies were found in the pickup.

tion goals. As a member of the President’s Cabinet at Hope College, Fellinger served as a senior adviser to the president and acted as the college’s primary spokesperson. Prior to her role at Hope College, Fellinger served as vice president, Marketing and Communications, at Saint Martin’s University in Lacey, Washington. She has also served as director of communications with the Association of Washington School Principals in Olympia, Washington and assistant director of communications at Washington State School Directors’ Association in Lacey, Washington. She also held the roles of editor with F&W Publications in Cincinnati and curatorial assistant at the Cincinnati Art Museum. “We believe that Jennifer’s character, faith, leadership and relationshipbuilding skills, coupled with her extensive experience in higher education, make her the best choice to lead Mercy McAuley High School and take it to even greater heights now and for many, many years to come,” said Denise Krueger, chair, Mercy McAuley Board of Directors. Fellinger earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Xavier University, where she graduated summa cum laude. She earned her Master of Arts degree in history of art from The Ohio State University. Fellinger has also been an active member of her community and has served on many boards for organizations and events such as the Downtown Holland Principal Shopping District and Tulip Time Festival in Holland, Michigan, as well as the Hands On Children Museum in Olympia, Washington. She has served as a keynote speaker, panelist and podcast guest on topics such as enrollment growth, customer experience, and student research. She was named an honoree in the South Puget Sound Region’s “40 Under Forty” by The Business Examiner in Tacoma, Washington. The search for Mercy McAuley’s new president began in January of 2021. The school’s Board of Directors worked with a national search fi rm, Gilman Partners, who generated a pool of approximately 200 potential candidates. The pool was narrowed to fi ve candidates, who were then presented to the President Search Committee. The President Search Committee included board members, a representative from Mercy Education, alumnae from the two legacy schools (McAuley and Mother of Mercy High Schools), alumnae from Mercy McAuley High School, and a current faculty and staff

member of Mercy McAuley who were elected by their colleagues to serve on the committee. The fi nal candidates were interviewed by the President Search Committee and other key stakeholders. The process culminated with the selection of the new President by Mercy McAuley’s Board of Directors, with the support of the Mercy Education Board of Directors.

In 2018, Scherz opened the new Pleasant Run Elementary as co-principal. “We are very excited to have Casey as a part of the Taylor Elementary team. His leadership skills are a good match for Taylor. We are very confi dent in Mr. Scherz’s ability to lead Taylor forward in success,” said Darrell Yater, interim superintendent. Scherz brings a wealth of knowledge to NWLSD. In 2000, Scherz received his Bachelor’s of Science in health and physical education from Ashland University.

iSPACE and Gorman Heritage Farm form partnership to increase access to educational programs A new partnership will allow thousands of area students learn more about STEM career fi elds and agricultural subjects. Gorman Heritage Farm and iSPACE have joined forces to purchase the former UAW Local 647 building located at 10020 Reading Road in Evendale, Ohio. The building will soon be converted into an educational space for both nonprofits and will also serve as iSPACE’s new headquarters. “We are incredibly excited about our new home and having a stellar partner like Gorman Heritage Farm makes this process even more thrilling. We can’t wait to begin inspiring future innovators with our highly acclaimed STEM programs and new facility,” iSPACE Executive Director Sue Hare said. The building is adjacent to Gorman Heritage Farm, and the non-profi t will use the space to increase its programming. “An educational building has long been a strategic priority for the farm,” Gorman Heritage Farm Executive Director Tricia Watts said. “We are thrilled to partner with iSPACE to make the dream a reality.

$50K settlement for Black man who said he was wrongfully detained Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Two years ago, at a United Dairy Farmers gas pump, an Elmwood Place police offi cer pulled a Black man from his vehicle and detained him, thinking the man was someone else. The offi cer charged the man with obstructing police, even though the UDF’s surveillance video, a federal lawsuit said, didn’t support the offi cer’s own arrest report. Prosecutors dropped the charge. The lawsuit settled last month for $50,000, documents show. The Enquirer obtained the settlement from the village of Elmwood Place through a public records request. The incident that led to the suit happened Sept. 28, 2019. Monday Oduimoh, a native of Nigeria who is now a U.S. citizen, stopped for

gas, and Sgt. Robert McConnell drove up behind Oduimoh’s SUV. McConnell activated his police vehicle’s overhead lights. It was a misunderstanding, Oduimoh said. He was driving a 2007 Ford Edge that was registered to him, although his ex-wife had driven it during their di-

vorce. Oduimoh said his ex-wife had allowed another man to drive the SUV. That man had been ticketed for speeding and driving with a suspended license, didn't show up for court, and there were warrants out for his arrest. According to Oduimoh, McConnell insisted Oduimoh was that man.

Within seconds of handing McConnell his driver’s license, the offi cer pulled Oduimoh from the SUV and handcuff ed him. Oduimoh told The Enquirer in an interview last year that he spent about 10 minutes in McConnell’s vehicle, trying to explain to McConnell that he had the wrong person. McConnell eventually fi gured it out but still charged Oduimoh with obstructing police. His report said Oduimoh “was extremely belligerent,” was “moving his hands around” and repeatedly refused to step out of the SUV. The surveillance video, which had no sound, appeared to contradict McConnell’s account. McConnell is no longer with the Elmwood Place Police Department, a village offi cial said. The settlement agreement says the payment should not be considered “an admission of liability or wrongdoing, of any kind.” It is intended to avoid the costs of litigation.

OPINION

Hamilton Co. Great Parks wants your input on levy options Your Turn Todd Palmeter Guest Columnist

Over the last four years, our team at Great Parks of Hamilton County has engaged in a robust process of developing a comprehensive master plan for your parks. We have listened and developed a vision for the future based on your thoughts and input. While we originally planned to go to the ballot in 2020 due to the urgent need, we understood it was not the right time. However, it did have a signifi cant fi nancial impact on Great Parks. On June 17, the Board of Park Commissioners approved three levy options for certifi cation by the Hamilton County Auditor. These options were based on three major funding considerations: First, existing critical infrastructure needs totaling $101 million. This includes but is not limited to natural resource management, building maintenance, paved roads and trails, playgrounds and utilities. Second, new park and facility master plan focus areas totaling $124 million.

These focus areas only represent onethird of the total master plan projects which resulted from the public input process. The focus areas are divided into four major themes: conservation projects; more trails and adventure; refreshed harbors and experiences; and new nature, education and event centers. Some exciting project examples include a 150-acre ecological restoration of a former golf course; 10 miles of new regional trails and 25 miles of blueways; revitalized harbors and improved play experiences; and a new education and event center. Third, private funding will account for an estimated $37.5 million of the total funding need in the next 10 years. We have stepped up and increased our private funding commitment through our fundraising partner, Great Parks Forever. Going forward, this will reduce the burden on taxpayers and allow us to continue to be excellent stewards of tax dollars while providing you with a valuable asset that can be enjoyed for generations. On July 15, the board will review the auditor certifi cations and determine which, if any, of the options to place on the November 2021 ballot. I believe it is critical that voters and residents understand what each option will allow Great

Parks to accomplish.

1.25 Mill Option What will we be able to accomplish? If voters approve this option, Great Parks will be able to fund approximately 100% of our critical infrastructure needs and approximately 80% of our master plan focus areas. What is the estimated annual cost to homeowners? If voters approve this option, homeowners in Hamilton County will pay an additional $43.75 per year based on the market value of a $100,000 residential property.

1.18 Mill Option What will we be able to accomplish? If voters approve this option, Great Parks will be able to fund approximately 100% of our critical infrastructure needs and approximately 69% of our master plan focus areas. What is the estimated annual cost to homeowners? If voters approve this option, homeowners in Hamilton County will pay an additional $41.30 per year based on the market value of a $100,000 residential property.

1.00 Mill Option A Great Blue Heron takes flight from the lake at Miami Whitewater Forest in western Hamilton County. THE ENQUIRER/PATRICK REDDY

What will we be able to accomplish? If voters approve this option, Great

Parks will be able to fund approximately 76% of our critical infrastructure needs and approximately 60% of our master plan focus areas. What is the estimated annual cost to homeowners? If voters approve this option, homeowners in Hamilton County will pay an additional $35.00 per year based on the market value of a $100,000 residential property.

If no levy is approved by voters With the current fi ve-year forecast, critical infrastructure needs will not be addressed resulting in the closure of individual facilities and amenities in several parks and a signifi cant reduction in services over the next few years. Also, the master plan focus areas identifi ed by the public will not be funded, further reducing the opportunities for creating impact in our community. Now it is important we hear from you concerning these levy options. We will be hosting fi ve public listening sessions in our parks across the county, including one online, so you can learn more and ask questions. Please visit greatparks.org (https:// www.greatparks.org/calendar/specialevents/future-funding-public-listening-sessions) to fi nd a listening session near you. I look forward to seeing you! Todd Palmeter is CEO of Great Parks of Hamilton County.

Cincinnati faith leaders urge congregations to get vaccinated Your Turn Joseph Paturi Guest Columnist

As faith leaders, we grieve the pain COVID-19 has infl ected on the communities we love and serve. We have seen fi rsthand the devastating toll this virus has played out on the lives of our con-

gregants and their loved ones. We’ve heard countless stories of people in our community losing their lives, jobs and mental health from the lingering eff ects of this virus. However, at the same time, we’ve also seen the best in humanity brought out among us through acts of kindness and selfl essness. We’ve seen neighbors checking in and helping other neighbors, families reunited and the marvelous ingenuity of America played out in the development of the COVID-19 vaccinations.

We understand the hesitation many Ohioans have toward receiving a COVID-19 vaccine – but we agree with government leaders on both sides of the aisle, including Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and President Joe Biden, that it’s imperative for our communities to get vaccinated in order to protect us from future variations of the virus and to move us toward resiliency. And this is why we’ve joined the White House Offi ce of Faith Based and Neighborhood Partnerships to discuss vaccination eff orts in Ohio and urge

people of faith across our state to consider receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. Please consider getting the COVID-19 vaccination if you haven’t and cheer on your loved ones to do the same as well. Dr. Joseph Paturi, senior pastor of International Baptist Congregation, writes this on behalf of cosigners: Chris Beard, lead pastor of People's Church; Lewis H. Kamrass, senior rabbi of Isaac M. Wise Temple; and Shaikh Hossam Musa, Imam of the Islamic Center of Greater Cincinnati.

Ohio Mr. Football and Soccer All-American named LaRosa’s MVPs for 2020-21 Kailyn Dudukovich of Lakota West, Corey Kiner of Roger Bacon honored Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

One of Ohio’s and the nation’s best high school soccer players, Kailyn Dudukovich of Lakota West, and Ohio Mr. Football Corey Kiner of Roger Bacon were named LaRosa’s MVPs of the Year for the 2020-2021 school year July 7. Here is a look at their accomplishments:

WALNUT HILLS – In between their AAU activities and high school team obligations, over 50 of Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky’s top basketball prospects were on display June 30 at Walnut Hills High School. The event was put on by Triple Double Prospects, run by Corey Albertson, and was live-streamed to hundreds of coaches across the country. The most recognizable face there was that of Paul McMillan IV, who earlier that week announced he would be transferring from Woodward High School to Hillcrest Prep of Arizona. Once rated the No. 2 player in his class in Ohio, he’s already ranked No. 6 in Arizona by 247sports.com, despite not yet taking the fl oor for Hillcrest. Though Hillcrest Prep is only 28 minutes from one of his suitors at Arizona State, the 6-foot-1, two-time AllState First Team selection says he’s still entertaining off ers. Currently on that list are Cincinnati, Xavier, Louisville, Dayton, Kansas State, Purdue, Penn State and Ole Miss. “I’m still wide open,” McMillan said. “I was going to narrow down my schools back in April to my top six. After discussing with my family, they said it would be best if I just keep my options open.” Hillcrest travels, and McMillan estimates they’ll only play a handful of games in Phoenix out of 35-40 on the schedule. Still, leaving Woodward, where he led the Bulldogs to their fi rst league championship in 23 years, was diffi cult. See BASKETBALL, Page 2B

Corey Kiner, Roger Bacon High School, Football, Class of 2021 In his incredible varsity career, things started pretty fast for Roger Bacon’s Corey Kiner, one of the best high school running backs in the nation in the class of 2021. As a freshman, in just his second varsity game, Corey set a new school single-game rushing record, running for 302 yards and fi ve touchdowns in a 47-12 win against Western Hills. He fi nished the season rushing for 1,226 yards and 15 touchdowns and was just beginning. Now, four years later, Corey has kept on running and setting records (11 school records) and was one of the most sought-after college recruits in Greater Cincinnati. He was on Sports Illustrated’s preseason high school All-American watch list. His numbers are staggering. See LAROSA’S, Page 2B

Energy of the stadiumcan transform fans … and players Mike Bass Sports Columnist Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

EDITOR’S NOTE: This is a weekly column from former sports reporter and editor Mike Bass. Bass will be contributing to The Enquirer by off ering advice for sports fans, athletes and youth sports parents and coaches through a weekly Q&A. You can reach him at mbass@mikebasscoaching.com or on Twitter @SportsFanCoach1. This is ridiculous, my friend said. How could a major league baseball player need the energy of a crowd to perform at a higher level? Javier Baez must need to be the center of attention, the friend concluded. “Look at me, look at me,’’ the friend said, mockingly. “Selfi sh,” the friend called the Cubs’ All-Star shortstop. The environment matters, I say. It matters for the players. It matters for you, too. Why do some fans need to attend a game with other fans to fully experience it? Feeling the highs and lows together. Escaping the world. Connected. Engaged. In the moment. The environment matters. And why are some fans losing themselves now as they return to the games? Throwing things at players. Making inappropriate comments. Drunk. Enraged. Out of control. The environment matters. We just respond to it in diff erent ways. Players are not analytics. Players are people. Some play better at home, some on the road. Conditions aff ect them. Former outfi elder Lou Novikoff wanted his wife to heckle him from the stands when he batted for motivation. Baez wanted in-game video and you at the park last season. Some players feed off of the energy of a big crowd or a big stage. Some freeze. Some players adjusted to fanfree ballparks last year. Some struggled amid COVID-19 restrictions. Are you really that diff erent? Does clutter on your desk or background noise aff ect you? What about people walking past you when you work, or sitting close enough to hear your conversations? You might love your home, but not working there alone in a pandemic. Players might love their workplaces, but an empty park might leave an emptier feeling.

Cincinnati fans cheer as the Reds take a 2-1 lead in the third inning of the game between the Cincinnati Reds and Atlanta Braves at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati on Thursday, June 24. ALBERT CESARE / THE ENQUIRER

Players can get help. Each MLB team must provide access to a sports psychologist. Some teams also employ mental-skills coaches. Players can work with coaches on how to tune out crowd noise or to feel inspired by it. The sport doesn’t matter. Olympic athletes have executed thousands of dives, routines and races in their heads, envisioning everything that can happen. It helps them prepare. Why not you? I asked one fan client who wanted to stop losing control of his emotions to close his eyes, envision being at a game and describe all that he was seeing … smelling tasting … hearing … and feeling. When I introduced a stressful scenario involving his team, and the fans around him, he could feel his heart racing and his body tensing. This was his ah-ha moment. His body was providing warning signs. If he could recognize those early, take some deep breaths or use other relaxation techniques, he could keep his cool and still feel the passion and drama. It takes practice, in your head and then in the game. It’s not about perfect. It’s about respecting how the environment can aff ect you. It can embolden us beyond cheering and booing because, hey, everyone else is doing it. Inhibitions disappear, sometimes alcohol-aided. The ugly in us has reappeared at times, perhaps magnifi ed after isolation. In the NBA alone, fans have poured popcorn on Russell Westbrook, spit on Trae Young, tossed a water bottle at Kyrie Irving, spewed racist and crude remarks at Ja Morant’s parents, and fought each other at the Suns-Nuggets playoff game. A previous column addressed fans recklessly swarming the 18th fairway during Phil Mickelson’s PGA Championship win.

“To say I will never put on a Woodward jersey anymore is kind of heartbreaking,” McMillan said. “Before I made the decision, I talked to my team about it and they said go there. I still was hesitant, but then I talked to Coach Jarelle Redden about it. Honestly, if my teammates and head coach didn’t say do this, I don’t know if I would have done it.” One not on the fl oor but recognizable due to his 7-foot frame was Hamilton High’s Sage Tolentino, who recently de-committed from Auburn. Tolentino came to watch Hamilton teammate and fellow transfer from Hawaii (last season) EJ Kapihe. On crutches from a recent knee injury that will sideline him about three months, Tolentino talked about his backing off on Auburn and a recent visit to the University of Cincinnati with new coach Wes Miller. “I just want to explore more options,” Tolentino said. “I just want to see the best fi t. I still have Auburn on my list, but I wanted to visit more schools. UC did off er. I went on an unoffi cial visit and it was good.” From Sycamore High, 6-foot-7 Ben Southerland impressed inside and outside and looked worthy of his Greater Miami Conference First Team selection. His reported off ers include the Miami RedHawks, Ohio University, Toledo, Winthrop, College of Charleston and Stetson. “I always love to go against the best players in the city,” Southerland said of the night’s competition. “I’m hoping to have a big July. I have six off ers and it’s been a great experience. I grew up in a basketball family and it’s a big dream

of mine.” Staying with the GMC, Lakota East coach Clint Adkins had his team represented with a few Thunderhawks, including junior Jack Kronauge. Their district rivals, Lakota West, had shooting guard Nate Dudukovich sinking buckets with a quick release. “I work on getting my shot up faster,” Dudukovich said. “You get to the next level they’re just longer and bigger. You have to learn how to get it off over them.” The Firebirds junior recently went to West Virginia for a team camp and played with some of the Mountaineers. He’s also talked with Xavier, Wright State and Butler, where both of his par-

The environment also can help us let down our guard enough to high-fi ve strangers and shed our masks. It can comfort us into feeling normal again. It can inspire us. One Reds fan likened his return to a live game and Great American Ball Park to “a religious experience.” The wait was so rough, he could cite it: “550 days.” He was speaking from a later Reds-Cubs game at Wrigley Field, asked not to be identifi ed because “I’m supposed to be working from home.” He was just doing what fans do, going where fans go. “We missed them,” Reds pitcher Amir Garrett said the next day. “The fans are a big part of baseball, even if they’re talking mess or just having fun out there.” Reds manager David Bell said the fans seemed more grateful to be out there again. No doubt. “They for sure seem more grateful,” Garrett said. “A full year of baseball not being able to sit in the stands, it does something to you a little bit. I can tell.” A ballpark enlivens you, and you enliven a ballpark. The louder you get, the more you might unnerve or inspire the players. Javier Baez feeds off of your energy. Playing in empty ballparks last season aff ected him. “It was the worst, to be honest,” Baez reportedly said in spring training. “It was worse than facing a pitcher in spring training on the back fi eld. I didn’t like it at all.” The environment matters. NOTE: Bobby Nightengale contributed to this story.

ents played. “When you play with better players, the game just comes to you more,” Dudukovich said of his hot night on the perimeter. From Northern Kentucky, Covington Catholic’s 6-foot-6 Chandler Starks was a physical presence on the boards with his tight end build. Starks played with Colonels teammate Evan Isparo and recently paid a visit to his father’s (Keith Starks) old coach (Bob Huggins at UC) in Morgantown. “I’ve got a lot of coaches texting me so far,” Starks said. “I went to West Virginia, Air Force texted me, Bellarmine texted me and Western Michigan texted me.” CovCath senior Mekhi Wilson was another back-court player who was active along with Holy Cross junior Jacob Meyer. Other notable performers were Woodward 6-foot-6 forward Keliese Frye, Walnut Hills shooting guard Owen Murray, Mason’s Michael Morton, Elder’s Andrew Harp and St. Xavier’s 6-foot-7 Louie Semona. There were some no-shows, as the Taft contingent, including 6-foot-6 Rayvon Griffi th, the No. 1 junior recruit in Ohio, couldn’t make it, nor could Fairfi eld junior guard Deshawne Crim. Former Dayton Belmont big man Shawn Phillips (6-foot-11) was the most imposing body on hand, but he is likely headed to an academy after playing last season in Michigan. UC, Ohio State and Dayton are among his nearby offers.

Kailyn Dudukovich, Lakota West, Soccer, Class of 2021 Lakota West senior Kailyn Dudukovich is a soccer high school All-American, an international champion, an Ohio state champion and a player that the Girls’ Soccer Network called one of the top fi ve high school soccer players in the nation in the 2021 class, while Top Drawer Soccer rated her as the No. 3 soccer forward in the nation in the 2021 class. During the Firebirds’ high school season-to-remember her junior year, Kailyn had one of the greatest high school seasons ever, helping the team to a 220-2 record and an Ohio state championship. Kailyn came through in the clutch with two goals in the state championship game, including the game-winner with 13 seconds to go, to secure a 2-1 victory over Anthony Wayne. She scored a remarkable 50 goals during the season, a Lakota and GMC single-season record. She also chipped in nine assists, so for the year, she accounted for 109 points, also a school and conference record. She holds at least a half dozen other records. The Firebirds’ team that season fi nished as the No. 2- rated team in the nation by USA Today. In her senior season, Kaylyn helped lead her team to the regional semi-fi nals, scoring all three of her team’s goals in that game to secure the 3-2 victory over Mount Notre Dame. She once again led the league in goals (46) and points (99). She managed to break all existing scoring and point total records for the Lakota School District with a two-year total of 96 goals and 208 points. Kailyn has won numerous honors for her stellar play. During her exceptional varsity career, she was twice named a soccer All-American. Dudukovich was the recipient of the Ms. Ohio Soccer and Gatorade Ohio Soccer Player of the Year awards, and two times she was named Ohio Division I Soccer Player of the Year, Southwest Ohio District Player of the Year, Greater Miami Conference Player of the Year and First Team All-State. She was also named by the Cincinnati.com Sports Awards’ her junior year as Cincinnati Soccer Player of the Year as well as the girls’ overall Athlete of the Year. Kailyn will play her soccer collegiately at the Ohio State University. In 2018, Kailyn was a member of the USA Under-16 girls’ national team, helping lead the team to an international title at the Torneo Delle Nazioni tournament in Italy. She scored four goals in one memorable game, an 8-0 victory over Iran. A super student (4.76 GPA) and member of National Honor Society, she is very active in community service and also plays for the Ohio Elite soccer club. Dudukovich was also an all-star basketball player for the Firebirds.

Cincinnati Magazine announces the pet voted ‘Cincinnati’s Cutest’ and winner of PetFest 2021 Submitted by Candice Terrell Fierce Marketing

Cincinnati Magazine is pawsatively ecstatic to announce that Tank, a 4 year old golden retriever mix, has been voted Cincinnati’s Cutest Pet of 2021. He was bestowed this great honor on June 11 at a brief ceremony alongside his family and shelter pet friends at the Cincinnati Animal CARE Humane Society in Northside, the contest’s benefi ciary charity partner. Cincinnati Magazine also presented a check in the amount of $1,000 to Cincinnati Animal CARE, thanks to the generosity of Cincinnati pet parents who entered their beloved pets into the contest. Tank lives in St. Bernard with his mom, Brett Underwood, and dad, David Schmidt. He was accompanied to the an-

nouncement by his grandpawrents, Bob and Karen Underwood. Grandma Karen is very involved in Tank’s life and is actually who entered Tank into the running. Tank received the largest number of votes by a wide margin. “Tank and I are so excited and feel so lucky to have won Cincinnati’s Cutest Pet Contest this year,” said Brett. “Thank you so much to Cincinnati Magazine and Nutrisource for hosting this amazing contest!” The PetFest 2021 Cutest Pet Contest, presented by NutriSource Pet Foods, was created to honor and celebrate our city’s loving pets who have been by our sides through these trying times. More than 200 pets were nominated, and the public voted for their favorites online throughout the spring, positioning Tank in the top spot.

Cincinnati, the ‘city within a park,’ ranks 8th in the nation for parks Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Locals already know that Cincinnati is a great city for parks. Now, everyone else knows thanks to a new study from the Trust for Public Land that ranked Cincinnati eighth in the nation for parks according to the trust’s ParkScore index. The ranking included 100 cities in the U.S. The study found that 87% of residents in Cincinnati live within a 10-minute walk to a park. The national average is 55%. “Everyone in Cincinnati knows how special our parks are to the city, and it is great to have this validated by a signifi cant national organization who specializes in this work,” the Board of Park Commissioners said. “We remain thankful and humbled to serve as stewards of this wonderful system of parks.” The board said the city has been described as “a city within a park.” The study found that 16% of Cincinnati’s city land is used for parks and recreation. The national median is 15%. Cincinnati is home to 5,000-plus acres of city parklands including 70 neighborhood parks, 34 natural areas, two arboretums, and 65 miles of hiking and bridle trails, the board said. The ParkScore index measures park systems according to fi ve categories: access, investment, amenities, acreage and equity.

Here’s how Cincinnati scored on those categories: h 80/100 for access. h 89/100 for investment. h 90/100 for amenities.

h 53/100 for acreage. h 68/100 for equity. In terms of equity, the study found that residents in neighborhoods of color have access to 15% less park space per

person than the city median and 7% less than those in white neighborhoods. Neighborhoods with multiple races had 4% more access than the city median, the index found.
