Colerain Township replacing iconic Megaland playground Jennie Key Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
It's been more than 20 years since residents of Colerain Township came together to plan, raise money and eventually build Megaland, a sprawling allwood playground in Colerain Park. It was the first of the large wooden community-built playgrounds in the area and hundreds of volunteers made it happen. They lent their tools. wheelbarrows, hard hats and their muscle power. They raised money, made food for the workers, kept everyone hydrated and did whatever they could. Some soaped screws to make it easier for them to be driven into the timbers used to build the huge structure. The playground was a monument to community cooperation and an icon for youngsters growing up in the township. But with time, the wooden playground deteriorated and became difficult to maintain. Safety and accessibility standards have changed and Tawanna Molter, administrative assistant for the Colerain Township Parks and Services Department, says it's getting hard to find parts to repair the playground. Parks director Kevin Schwartzhoff said the new playground will be more expensive than Megaland, as materials and safety and accessibility requirements have changed a lot since 1997. He estimated the cost of the new playground will be $350,000. Colerain Township scored a $150,000 grant from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources to build a brand new playground to replace Megaland. Schwartzhoff said the township also got a grant for 50 percent of the playground equipment. "That means we can do a lot more with the money we have," he said. Colerain Township trustees approved its 2019 appropriations budget Dec. 11 with an additional $150,000 in See MEGALAND, Page 2A

Fifth graders at Colerain Elementary, adjacent to Colerain Park, helped brainstorm ideas about the new playground to replace Megaland.
A teacher in a suburban Cincinnati school has apologized for a letter spelling out his dress code for a holiday concert that resulted in a firestorm on Facebook. The guidelines banned “Mohawks, Afros or any other outlandish hairstyles” and directed students to see barbers and cosmetologists the day before the concert. The initial letter was posted hundreds of times on Facebook and other social media over the weekend. The district apologized Sunday on social media and said new guidelines were coming today. Along with a revised dress guideline for the upcoming and future chorus concerts, Steven Reeves, a black teacher in his first year with the district, apologized Monday “for any negative feelings that were created...” Reeves said in his letter the wording and expectations were insensitive and were a mistake. His first letter, sent to parents of middle school students in the vocal ensemble, was explicit in its direction as to how students who were participating should look. Comments from Facebook said the requirements targeted black students and were racist. Many called for Reeves to be fired. Reeves was hired in August and his listed educational background said he had a master’s degree and hours towards his doctorate with five years of experience. He taught at Dayton Public Schools in Ohio as well as Orange Public Schools in New Jersey and Central State University of Ohio. The letter instructed boys that they should “receive appropriate barber attention the evening before the concert. Mohawks, ‘Barber Designs’ and Large Afros are unacceptable,” the letter said.

capital improvements for the playground. The township is trying to raise an additional $50,000 from local businesses, civic groups and residents so the new playground will be as iconic as the original. Hand tiles and memorial plaques on the Megaland playground will be removed, and will be available if residents want their handprint tile or plaque. Call the township parks office at 513-385-7503 if interested. The township gathered playground experts – fifth-graders from Colerain Elementary School – and got their input as part of the planning process. Students had an opportunity to ask questions about playground components and vote for their favorite features. After the first round of voting, students were asked if there was anything they have played on in other parks, not listed on the sample boards, that they
would like to see added to the new playground. The “write-in” options were added for students to vote on when given the chance to choose their second favorite feature. Top choices included climbing modules that are a hit when playing “The Floor is Lava.” An 80-foot zip line, a hill covered in “fake grass” to slide on, and a challenge course with timers were popular. Township officials will bring a 3-D draft of the full playground back to the students so they can see how their input and ideas contribute to the final plan. The township is working with DWARec, which has been in the parks and recreation business since 1988. Public services staff will begin dismantling Megaland in January and preparing the site for the new playground. The projected installation is April 2019, weather permitting. Call the Colerain Township Parks and Services Department at 513-3857503 if you are interested in making a donation or sponsoring part of the project.

“Men with long hair (i.e. Dreadlocks or Braids) should devote the necessary attention to make sure that hair is neat and pulled behind the neck in a conservative ponytail style.” Girls were “strongly encouraged to visit the cosmetologist the evening before the concert. Hair must be styled in a manner that will not draw any specific attention to an individual performer on stage. Therefore bright colors such as Pink or Red are not permissible.” The Northwest Local School District changed its dress code this year after getting input from parents of students in the district. Language concerning hair color, piercings and not allowing girls to wear dresses was not in the new code.
This letter sent to parents of students in the vocal music program at Pleasant Run Middle School stirred folks up on Facebook. PROVIDED/HEATHER HYDE

Todd Bowling, superintendent of the Northwest Local School District in which the school is located, thanked parents for bringing their concerns to the district, and apologized for “the frustration the original language caused or breakdown in relationship that resulted from the original set of guidelines.” He said the original student presentation guidelines were not approved and not reflective of how the district feels in any way. In 2017, the Northwest Local School District created a diversity committee with 30 diverse staff, parents, and community members. The committee developed a diversity plan divided into five distinct pillars: Curriculum, Leadership, Community Engagement, Staffing, and Student Engagement. One strategy identified was to begin district-wide training for all employees on cultural sensitivity and proficiency.

Q: Dr. Godbey, I hear crickets in my ears. My physician said there’s nothing I can do about this. Is that true? A: What you are describing is called tinnitus. Some people describe it as buzzing, hissing, or even roaring in the ears. Tinnitus is real! It can be irritating, frustrating, and even cause difficulty with concentration and depression. Research shows that people who experience tinnitus often have a hearing loss. When people with hearing loss who experience tinnitus wear hearing aids, they often express relief whether it be total or partial. Certain studies indicate that hearing aids reduce tinnitus because they stimulate impaired portions of the auditory (hearing) system that have been deprived of sound because of hearing loss.

Could compute failure jeopardize local police cases? Jennie Key Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
More than two dozen area police departments have their fingers crossed this week. They are hoping California-based Secure Data Recovery will live up to its name. If it doesn't, police chiefs say several pending criminal cases could be at risk. The company is the third to attempt recovery of police records, accident reports and other documents from more than 20 local law enforcement agencies that use the report software Pamet. On Oct. 27, a server and backup containing the police records were damaged by what police said they were told was a power glitch. The servers were offline for more than two weeks. When the servers came back online, the data they contained did not. Electronic records including police incident reports, daily logs, accident reports and property room inventories from Oct. 27 back to when each department began using the system were gone. Police are hoping Secure Data Recovery will succeed where other services have not. Representatives of Carrollton, Texasbased Securus have been in contact with the departments, but police patience is wearing thin. The latest message that some data may be recoverable is being met with skepticism from the chiefs. Springfield Township Police Chief Rob Browder says he'll believe it when he sees it. Meanwhile, he's in meetings with other affected chiefs, with his law director and with IT people. Browder said his trust level is at an alltime low. His department was an early adopter and started with the Pamet system in 2006. The system failure lost 12 years of police records. He said the system is up and running
In 2014, the Forest Park Police Department switched from paper reports to a new paperless system. On Oct. 27, it failed. FILE PHOTO
again and his officers are entering information using the software. He's also backing up daily to his own server. And making paper copies. "You could say I'm gun-shy," he said. "I still don't feel like we have a good understanding of how this occurred. And that's a concern."
Legal jeopardy? Browder said the group of chiefs has contacted the FBI to see if the agency can discover whether the server failure was the result of a cyber attack. Enquirer lawyer Jack Greiner said Ohio Revised Code requires the departments
to produce the records in response to requests for public records. The cities, townships and villages affected could face fines if they cannot produce a requested document and it causes the requester harm. See POLICE, Page 4A

As you shop for Medicare,
don’t forget about dental coverage.
Police Continued from Page 3A
Greiner said Ohio Revised Code provides for a $1,000 forfeiture or fine for each record requested that cannot be produced by a person who is harmed because of the failure to produce the record. The fines are capped at $10,000. And the person trying to recover the fine money has to prove they were harmed. Dan Tierney, a spokesman with the Ohio Attorney General's Office, said the fact that the destruction of the records was not intentional should protect departments from legal scrutiny. He said one of the Southwest Ohio chiefs had contacted the attorney general's office to see if they needed to report what was happening. The answer: not at this time.
'We are concerned'
Many Medicare plans don’t include dental.
Forest Park Police Chief William Arns said his department is maintaining a list of public records requests it has been unable to fill because it doesn't have access to its records going back to 2014, when the department began using Pamet. He's not optimistic the data will be recovered. He is also uneasy following the loss of the records. His department is using the Pamet software but is keeping copies of all the reports and saving them on a police department server. Arns said when the department moved to the Pamet system, officers visited the offsite data center to see where the servers were located. "We did our due diligence," he said. "But Pamet's been sold twice since then, and we are concerned." Colerain Township Chief Mark Denney said his department turned to crime mapping after the servers went down to track down victims of crimes that happened before the crash. He said the department is spending a lot of money on overtime now that the system is up, 100 hours of overtime at $22 per hour, for
starters. He estimated that if the department goes to a new system it could cost require another 300-400 overtime hours at a cost of $6,600 to $8,808. Browder said he is beyond frustrated with the situation. "My No. 1 concern is that this would affect a criminal case, that we would lose it because of this. That has not happened yet, but it is a concern. You figure it's not unusual for it to take six months for a case to get to court," he said. "That could still pop up unless the data comes back." And he is concerned about security. "I saw articles online about a Securus data breach with its phone services," he said. "That does not give me confidence."
Backups and alternative services Some smaller departments kept paper backups. Greenhills Police Chief Neil Ferdelman said because of backups and procedures in his department, missing records can likely be recreated or are available in paper form. "It's definitely not convenient," he said. "For us now, it's more of a nuisance." Some other departments discovered partial backups because of grant projects or work Securus did to customize the Pamet program for them. The chiefs are looking for anywhere they can scavenge records that are lost in case they cannot be recovered. Browder said he's already looking at other systems including one being developed at the University of Cincinnati. But he'll always keep his own backup. "I just have no trust at this point," he said. "We were promised daily email updates. That hasn't happened, either."

Video of Mt. Healthy arrest prompts investigation Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Mount Healthy police officers arrested a woman Tuesday, Dec. 11. Passerbys filmed the situation showing an officer lying on top of the woman on the sidewalk. "She wasn’t resisting arrest or anything so why was all of them necessary?" one person wrote on a video shot from the window of a passing vehicle. Mount Healthy Police Chief Vincent Demasi said in a Facebook post the incident is under investigation, but argued
his officers did nothing wrong. "Based on my preliminary review, I see no obvious violations of policy or procedures by the Mount Healthy officers responding to this call for service," Demasi wrote. "It does again highlight the need for citizens to comply with an officer’s lawful request, and then complain to a supervisor if they believe a violation of authority has occurred." Demasi also offered more context and background to what led to the arrest. He said officers responded to the Family Dollar Store on Hamilton Avenue just before 4 p.m. that Tuesday for a re-
port from the clerk about three disorderly females refusing to leave. "The females began taunting the clerk, and one of the females threw an item which struck the clerk," Demasi wrote. The clerk wanted to press charges, he said. Officers then spotted a group of females walking nearby and attempted to stop them, Demasi said. "A female in the group, who matched the description given by the store clerk, refused to stop," Demasi said. "As the officer approached, the female became

I have been waiting to share this special recipe Giant cinnamon roll The recipe called for bread flour. All I had was all-purpose, so I just used a little more. That substitution may not work in all recipes, but it worked fine in this one.
Butter or spray pan. Roll dough out on very lightly floured surface to a 9x12” rectangle, about 1/4” thick.
If you like, right after you frost it, sprinkle with chopped toasted pecans.
Spread dough with butter, then sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon, patting the mixture in as you go.
Ingredients for roll
Cut into six 11⁄2” x 12” strips.
1 round cake pan, 9”
Loosely roll up 1 strip and place in center of pan.
1 package active dry yeast, (0.25 oz.) 3
⁄4 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)
⁄4 cup granulated sugar + pinch for feeding yeast
1
⁄2 teaspoon salt
1
1 large egg, room temperature 3 cups all-purpose flour or 2 1⁄2 cups bread flour ⁄4 cup butter, softened
1
⁄2 cup packed brown sugar
1
Add rest of strips, loosely coiling them around the center spiral of dough. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 40 minutes. Preheat oven to 325. Bake 25-35 minutes or until top is golden and dough in center is set, not gummy. A toothpick inserted in center will come out clean. (mine took 25 minutes). Let cool 10 minutes then frost with cream cheese frosting.
1 tablespoon cinnamon
Frosting
Instead of individual rolls you get a super-sized spiraled cinnamon roll.

I could hardly wait to share this giant cinnamon roll recipe with you. The recipe intrigued me – instead of individual rolls you get a super-sized spiraled cinnamon roll, pretty and easy to serve. Check out my site abouteating.com for a photo tutorial. Now don’t forget about the true meaning of Christmas and this holiday season - it’s about family and friends getting together. Remember, it’s not just about the food, but who shares it with you. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator and author. Find her blog online at Abouteating.com . Email her at rita@communitypress.com with “Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line.
Add egg and 1 cup flour and mix well to combine. Mixture will be real sticky. Continue adding flour until nice dough forms. It may or may not leave the sides of the bowl. That’s OK. Turn out onto a very lightly floured board and knead a few minutes. It will be as smooth as a baby’s bottom. Cover with damp cloth and let rest 10 minutes.
Serves 8-12. Tips: Substituting rapid rise yeast. Yes, you can. This will speed up the rising process a bit. Freeze it. Cool, then wrap well and freeze, unfrosted, for up to 3 weeks. Wrap in foil to rewarm and then frost it.

Viewpoints Rep. Blessing announces passage of Notary Public Modernization Act Louis Blessing Guest Columnist Community Press
State Representative Louis W. Blessing III (R-Colerain Township) announced the House passage of Senate Bill 263, the “Notary Public Modernization Act,” which streamlines the notary public system in Ohio. Before the House floor vote, the bill was heard in the Government Accountability and Oversight Committee, which Blessing chairs. Senate Bill 263 will simplify and enhance the process for commissioning notaries of public in Ohio, a function that currently operates on a county-by county basis, by consolidating the commissioning under the purview of the Secretary of State’s office. The bill, for the first time in Ohio, allows for the practice of electronic notarization, via live audio-video technology rather than face-to-face interactions, with the use of an electronic signature and electronic seal. Electronic notarization, a growing trend across the nation, helps save both time and money. E-notarization allows individuals to quickly and
efficiently get notarial acts processed. This bill also promotes Ohio as a leader in utilizing technological advancements to innovate business practices. “Sub. Senate Bill 263 is a great bill that I’m pleased to see passed with broad bipartisan support,” said Blessing. “It simplifies and enhances the notary commissioning process, and it allows for electronic notarization. Not only have businesses been clamoring to do this, but Ohioans everywhere will see the benefits, especially when buying homes or cars.” The legislation requires notaries seeking authorization for electronic notarization to complete an educational course and pass a test to acquire commission. Senate Bill 263 passed with a vote of 73-8 and returns to the Senate for consideration of House amendments. For more information, contact Rep. Blessing’s office at 614-466-9091 or Rep29@ohiohouse.gov. Louis Blessing is the 29th House District Representative. The 29th District includes Colerain Township, Crosby Township, Miami Township, Whitewater Township, Harrison, Cleves, North Bend, Addyston and part of Cincinnati.

Protect your holiday packages from theft Sandra Guile Guest Columnist Community Press
Online shopping is a great time saver during the holiday season, but the shipped packages left on the doorstep provide a great opportunity for theft. According to insurancequotes.com, 26 million Americans have had holiday packages stolen from their homes since 2015. This often happens because people aren’t home when items are delivered, allowing thieves, also known as “porch pirates”, the chance to follow delivery drivers and pick up unattended parcels. Sources from the U.S. Postal Inspection Service say mail theft is a federal offense, and if prosecuted, carries a fiveyear jail sentence for the criminal. Although it’s impossible to delay the delivery of items ordered, there are a few ways to prevent them from being stolen. “The best way to make sure your package is safe is to promptly remove mail from your mailbox or porch shortly after it arrives,” said Kathryn Woliung, Postal Inspector. “Consider starting a neighborhood watch program. By exchanging work and vacation schedules with trusted friends and neighbors, you can watch each other’s mailboxes and residences.” Another option is to have items sent to your work address if you have permission from your employer. Your packages are then delivered to a secure location with little chance of them being stolen. Some homeowners have taken steps to prevent daytime robberies - like package or mail theft - by installing webcams or smart security systems with cameras pointed directly at their driveway or front door. This allows the resident to monitor who is approaching their home. If they’re a victim of theft, the video recording can be used as proof when filing a police report. “Video images are helpful because you have an image of the thief unless of course, they aren’t looking at the camera,” said Woliung. “If you combine this image with U.S. Postal Services tracking

Sports Former Colerain coach Tom Bolden accepts head football job at Lakota West Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
The same smile and booming voice that has echoed through the halls of Colerain High School for years was alive and well at Lakota West Tuesday evening as new Firebirds head football coach Tom Bolden was introduced. Later, he was greeted with a standing ovation after the first quarter of the Firebirds basketball game with Middletown. Bolden, who just led Colerain to a Division I state runner-up finish and a 14-1 record, was contacted by Lakota West Athletic Director Scott Kaufman and Principal Elgin Card as they drove home from the state finals that Sunday. The trio eventually came to an agreement and an announcement was recently made by both Lakota West and Colerain. Bolden then spent the weekend in Oxford with his senior son Luke, who has committed to the Miami RedHawks. Here’s his first comments in person on the job as he previously had just released a statement. “Toughest decision I’ve ever had to make,” Bolden said. “It was one of those things I was going to disappoint some great young men. It still breaks my heart
a bit. The opportunity and the timing is something I just couldn’t pass up.” Bolden’s soon-to-be freshman son, Mitchell, will also accompany him to West Chester. The Boldens live about 20 minutes away and that would be permitted as a privilege of being Lakota West faculty next school year. Taking over for Kerry Coombs at Colerain, Bolden was 142-21 during 12 years with the Cardinals, including 85-1 in the Greater Miami Conference. Colerain won the GMC each year and made 11 trips to the OHSAA Division I playoffs, with three regional championships and this past season’s state runner-up finish. Lakota West last shared the GMC with Colerain in 2009 and 2013. After Larry Cox resigned last spring, Jeff Wadl took over as interim coach and was 4-6. The previous two seasons the Firebirds were 2-8, with their last winning season coming in 2015 at 7-3. “Me being the old competitor I am, I’m looking forward to that challenge,” Bolden said of resurrecting the Firebirds. “No disrespect to the kids at Colerain or the community of Colerain but I’m ready for this new challenge.” Lakota West made the OHSAA Division I playoffs in 2004, 2006, 2009, 2013 and 2014. Bolden now is charged with

trying to chase down his alma mater who has won or shared every GMC title since 2000. The two teams won’t meet next season, but will in 2020. “I’m going to look forward to that,” Bolden said. “And whoever becomes the head coach at Colerain, hopefully, one of
my assistants, I’ll be gunning for them. I’m looking forward to that hunt.” Staff decisions are in the works, with Lakota West AD Scott Kaufman asking Bolden to speak to those currently on staff who may be interested. Otherwise, he’s pulling for a familiar face to lead his old team. Defensive coordinator Shawn Cutright was a name he mentioned Tuesday night. Offensively, Colerain ran a widelysuccessful triple-option offense that has been the team’s bread and butter for years. It will continue in some form at Lakota West. “I think 50 slant angle defense for sure (and) we’ll run some components of our triple option,” Bolden said. “We’ll be more multiple I think. We’ll be able to do a few other things to expand on it.” Bolden’s supreme confidence leads him to believe he can take advantage of the superior facilities at Lakota West and find enough in the talent pool to compete. He made sure to note that he not only spoke to high school players and parents but also with many middleschoolers. “I’m going to bring the best out of them,” Bolden said. “I think they just need to be wired a little bit different. That’s what we’re going to do in the offseason and we’ll get them ready to roll!”

Laney Huber named LaRosa’s MVP A four-year varsity starter as a forward/midfielder, senior soccer player Laney Huber has been named LaRosa’s MVP this week. Throughout her varsity career, Huber set school records for career goals (105), career points (236), single-season goals (32) and single-season points (69). Huber’s senior season was highlighted by finishing second in the MVC in goals (32) and points (69), as well as notching five assists. She scored four goals in a game on three different occasions. "Laney is a phenomenal soccer player, athlete, student and person,” CHCA coach Heather Vibberts said. “On the field Laney makes those around her better both through her play and her attitude and leadership. Laney is the kind of player that has the ability to beat opponents not only with her speed but her change of pace. Laney continually strives to get better." Huber’s accomplishments garnered Division III Southwest Ohio District Player of the Year and first team all-state honors, and she was also named to her third first team all-city and fourth first team all-conference teams. A National Honor Society member, Huber will continue her soccer career with the University of Dayton.

Rotary brings early Christmas to students with disabilities
Mike Levally of Finneytown, center, with Garry Holmes of Roselawn and Lucas Wright of Hartwell. PROVIDED
The Cafeteria of Roselawn Condon School was a sea of bobbing holiday balloons as “Jingle Bells” tinkled on the school piano and 122 children, most with physical or developmental disabilities, feasted on cake, ice cream and attention. Suddenly, the jingle was real bells and a split-second hush of expectation turned into a rush into the arms of Santa. Welcome to the Rotary Club of Cincinnati’s longest holiday tradition, a huge party for students with disabilities, complete with games, music, food, a magician and Santa bearing gifts. Wrapping paper was ripped away to reveal a scooter, a Barbie doll, a Spiderman web slinger, remote control cars, games, coats, party clothes and stuffed animals. Children with limited movement or struggling with a tightly tied ribbon got help unwrapping. An army of Rotarians moved among the children, assembling and adding batteries. “We look forward to this every year,” said Roselawn Condon School Principal Harry Voll. “For some of our families, this is the only celebration they will have.”
“We house the most medically fragile and more children with multiple disabilities than any other school in the district. Rotarian Terri Boeing of Anderson Township co-chaired the party. “Students fill out gift request cards in September and October and Rotary mem-
bers take the gift tags and buy gifts,” she said. “The party is a huge undertaking, but it comes together like clockwork,” Boeing said. Rotary members show up with boxes See ROTARY, Page 4B

YOUR HEALTH with Dr. Owens
Rotary Continued from Page 3B
This holiday, invest in building strong relationships This is the time of year when we want to show our friends and family how much we care about them. As you make your to-do list and look at your budget, consider the gift of your time.
O’dell M. Owens, MD, MPH President & CEO
One way to build strong relationships with children and adults is to show that we enjoy being with them. Set aside time for activities to do together, whether it’s sharing a meal or going to a holiday-themed event. Acknowledge people by name for who they are, not just what they do. The Search Institute, a nonprofit organization that studies and works to strengthen youth, outlines some ways we can build relationships. While focused on youth, many of these tips could apply to people of any age. • Express care: Show youth that you enjoy being with them. • Challenge growth: Help your children to see possibilities for their own futures. • Provide support: Guide and encourage children as they work to complete tasks and achieve goals. • Share power: Take children’s ideas seriously. Work together to solve problems and reach goals.
of decorations, holiday craft supplies and games. Busken Bakery donates cakes. UDF donates ice cream. Brendamour Moving & Storage transports all the gifts. This year more than 50 Rotary members volunteered at the event, doing everything from balloon duty and cutting cake to entertaining and sweeping up. Besides gifts for the children, each teacher received flowers and a gift card and the Rotarians donated $1,000 to the school to buy communication devices. Brad Green of Evendale said the event warms his heart. “This starts my Christmas season every year,” he said. “You smile and smile and smile.” More than a century ago, local Rotarians realized children with disabilities were not part of the school system. The Rotary organized the city’s first education programs for children with disabilities at Cincinnati General Hospital in 1919. “Our rotary members went all over the country to learn what was state-ofthe-art in education for students with disabilities,” Atkins said. The Rotary Club helped pay for the teachers, educational supplies and even band instruments.

Rotary Continued from Page 4B
Rotary Club President Rick Flynn of Evendale; Event co-chair Terri Boeing of Anderson Township and Rotarian Rich Dineen of Montgomery.
Condon School for Crippled Children - a cutting edge program for children with physical disabilities. In 1982, Condon School merged with Roselawn School, creating Roselawn Condon School in Roselawn, providing individual support and a challenging academic curriculum for all children, including a strong focus on students with physical and developmental challenges. Christmas gifts and support for the school the Rotary started has been a tradition for more than nine decades. But the giving goes both ways, say Rotary members. “After you come the first time, you can’t not come back,” said Rotarian Bill Powell of Fort Thomas. “When you see the look on the kids’ faces, you realize they’re giving you the best gift of all. This is when Christmas begins” Peggy Hodgson, Rotary Club of Cincinnati
Wesley Botto of Ft. Thomas, center, with Jose Silva Cortez of Mt. Airy and Angelina Pickens of Walnut Hills.
