CincyNature Camps promote exploration Nature-based camps are available in Goshen, Milford BY KRISTIN BEDNARSKI Sun staff
For campers at Cincinnati Nature Center’s day camps, learning is all about doing. Whether campers are trudging through a stream or picking up creatures from a pond, they are learning things by experiencing them. This is what Jason Neumann, experiential education manager at Cincinnati Nature Center and camp director at Long Branch Farm and Trails in Goshen, works to provide for children each day at camp. “I believe experience is education,” Neumann said. “Unless you have the realworld experience, feel the water, get pinched by a crayfish, it’s not the same.” Children who attend a CincyNature Camp at either Long Branch Farm or Rowe Woods, in Milford, spend each day of camp exploring, asking questions and learning about the environment. “We’ve been learning how to catch toads and frogs,” Hannah Cosgray, a 7-year-old camper from Eastgate, said. “And guess what? We have caught two snakes!” Cosgray and her friend Heidi Jurgensen waded up to their knees during camp
July 11 catching crayfish, and once they caught the crayfish and observed them, they put them back in their environment. “We learned how to pick up crawdads the right way,” Jenna Krusne, another camper, said. “And how to treat animal s the right way.” Neumann said campers are encouraged to explore and find things in the creek, which he said provides opportunities for camp staff members to talk about the different animals, rocks or shells that were found. “We get to go in the creek and we get to find animals,” Barrett Wade, a 6-year-old camper, said. “It is really fun.” Wade said it was his first time ever catching crayfish and he learned how to be able to tell if the crayfish is a boy or a girl. He said he also learned how to figure out the difference between a worm and a caterpillar. In addition to learning about wildlife, Neumann said campers also learn about the importance of water during Creek Week at Long Branch Farm, which ran from July 9-13. He said they learn about how important hydration is and do an activity that shows them how much water i s in their bodies. “It is all about water the

entire week,” Neumann said. Campers are also able to canoe in the deeper sections of the creek to look for different plants and wildlife. Neumann said campers do most of the paddling and learn skills that help them become comfortable in the outdoors. “One of my biggest things is teaching kids how to be outside,” Neumann
said. Neumann said as children go through camp they learn things like which plants to avoid and how to better notice things occurring in nature. “As you get older you can add more skills on top of that,” Neumann said. “If you are comfortable outside you’re more inclined to like it.” Creek Week is just one of
the day camp sessions offered at Cincinnati Nature Center throughout the summer. Other sessions include Adventure Quest at Rowe Woods, Art Camp at Rowe Woods, Summer Memories at Long Branch Farm and Trails and many more. There are CincyNature camps available for children as young as 3 years old and up to 15 years old. Prices for the camps
range from $135-$305 per week depending on the camp. Rates are less expensive for Cincinnati Nature Center members. Neumann said there is still space available for other camp sessions this summer. Summer camps run each week from June 4 - Aug. 10. For more information about CincyNature Camp visit www.cincynature.org.

The investment world can be complex — so you may not want to navigate it alone. But when it comes to getting professional advice, you certainly have an abundance of choices. How can you know which approach is right for you? The answer depends, to a large extent, on how you choose to work with a qualified financial advisor — someone with the training and experience to help you work toward your financial goals. When you work with a financial advisor, he or she will analyze your financial situation — your income, current assets, family status and short- and long-term investment goals, such as helping pay for your children’s (or grandchildren’s) college education and attaining a comfortable retirement. You can choose different ways of working with a financial advisor — and a deciding factor may be how “hands on” you want to be with your investment strategy. To illustrate this concept, let’s look at two common ways investors interact with financial advisors: • Taking recommendations and making choices — After evaluating your financial situation, goals, risk tolerance and time horizon, your financial ad-
visor can recommend appropriate investments. Over time, your financial advisor will communicate with you regularly to keep track of changes in your life and to suggest any changes you may need to make in your portfolio. Of course, you have the final say in accepting or rejecting these recommendations, which is why this method is considered a hands-on way to invest. • Investing through a managed account — In this situation, your financial advisor will help you create, implement and refine your long-term financial strategy, but the money managers will make the daily investment decisions, relying on a variety of criteria pertaining to your situation. For example, if your portfolio has become overweighted in a specific asset class, such as stocks or bonds, and is no longer aligned with your goals, it may automatically be brought back into balance. So which method of investing is better for you? There’s really no one right answer for everyone. If you’re the sort of person who likes to make all your own decisions, then you might be better off following the hands-on approach with your financial advisor. On the other hand, if
you are particularly busy and just don’t feel you have the time to be actively involved with dayto-day investment decisions, you might want to consider a managed account. In any case, you’ll want to be comfortable with the method of investing that you’ve chosen. So do your homework beforehand. Whether you’re interested in a hands-on relationship or a hands-off approach, you still need to interview several financial advisors to find one who has worked with people in your situation and who seems genuinely interested in helping you. During these interviews, make sure you understand everything related to working with a financial advisor — the fees involved, the way decisions will be communicated to you if you choose a managed account, and so on. Deciding how you want to invest is your first step in working toward your financial goals — so make the choice that’s right for you. Article submitted by S. Christian Wilks, an Investment Representative with Edward Jones, Milford.

Reminders for gardeners STEVE BOEHME Get out your calendar and make a note to yourself about these important dates in the month of July: July is the cutoff date for pruning and shearing woody plants, and here’s why: Pruning and shearing stimulate new green growth, which won’t have time to harden off completely before winter. Pruning and shearing after July can cause winter burn on the tender new growth. July is also the ideal time to start your Bermudagrass control program. To kill Bermudagrass in lawns you must spray selective Bermudagrass killer twice, first in July and again in August. By September you should have successfully eliminated the Bermudagrass in your lawn, just in time for September seeding. A special bonus is that Bermudagrass killer kills crabgrass, too. Here’s a timely tip for gardeners interested in wildlife and native plants. The Cincinnati Museum Center has a free exhibit called “Caring for the Worlds within Our Yards,” where you can learn naturefriendly lawn care practices and explore what you can

“The Ohio Secretary of State will be sending each registered voter in the state an application to vote by mail.” “In order to make sure voters receive their application in the mail, the Clermont County Board of Elections must have voter’s current registration information on file,” said Clermont Board of Elections Director Judy Miller. On July 31, all 88 county Board of Elections in Ohio will be submitting their voter rolls to the state to aid in the mailing; a second mailing will be made closer to the November election. “How much has your life changed since the presidential election four years ago? Have you moved, changed jobs, gotten married or divorced? Many people may no longer live at the same address as when they voted in 2008,” said Carrie Davis, Executive Director of the League of Women Voters of Ohio. “We want to urge every single voter to update
their voter registration. Please don't wait - do it now.” In 2006, Ohio law changed to allow every registered voter to vote by mail; previously, voters needed an excuse to vote absentee. In addition to being convenient, vote by mail also reduces the risk of a voter casting a ballot in the wrong precinct and not having it counted. If a voter chooses to vote by mail, the correct precinct ballot is automatically mailed to them. Voters will only receive a vote-by-mail application if their voter registration is current. “Having clean voter rolls is essential to running good elections, and we are asking for every voter to help us with this task,” said McCoy. “Having up-to-date voter information not only helps us at the Board of Elections, it makes it easier for eligible voters to cast their ballot and be confident that it will be counted.”

The Sunday Sun - July 15, 2012 - Page 9
It’s Canine Preventive Care Month at All Creatures Canine Parvovirus (or “Parvo) is contagious viral infection that is spread from dog to dog by direct or indirect contact with their feces. Spread through fecal matter in dirt, it can also live on surfaces and objects such as shoes, food and water dishes, toys and bedding. Parvovirus can live in the ground long periods of time and is often found in yards and dog parks where infected pets have carried it. Dogs that are treated early and aggressively usually pull through. However, chances of survival for puppies are much lower than older dogs. Even when dogs are given veterinary care, there is no guarantee of survival. Prevention and early detection are imperative. Symptoms of Parvovirus Common signs of the intestinal form are severe vomiting and diarrhea. Symptoms include: • Lethargy (lack of energy) • Severe and/or bloody diarrhea • Vomiting • Fever • Loss of appetite • Dehydration • Seizures The virus kills through a combination of attacks. Dogs that catch parvovirus usually die from the dehydration it causes, or secondary infections, rather than the virus itself. Diarrhea and vomiting leads to extreme fluid loss and dehydration that in turn leads to shock and death. Treatment of Parvovirus Hospitalization is required to treat parvovirus, where supportive care and antibiotics are administered. Treatments may vary, but certain aspects are considered vital for all patients. These include: Administering intravenous fluids and nutrients to help the dog combat the severe dehydration and electrolyte imbalances that result from vomiting and diarrhea. Antibiotics administered either through IV drip or injection to counteract the secondary bacterial infections that result. Medications to control nausea and vomiting are sometimes added to the IV fluid bag or given as injections to combat the severe nausea.
DR. DAN MEAKIN ALL CREATURES ANIMAL HOSPITAL
Once the dog can keep fluids down, the IV fluids are gradually discontinued, and bland food is slowly introduced. Puppies with minimal symptoms can often recover in 2 or 3 days if the IV fluids are begun as soon as symptoms are noticed and a simple in house test confirms the diagnosis. If more severe, depending on treatment, puppies can remain ill from 5 days up to 2 weeks. A dog that successfully recovers from Parvo generally remains contagious for up to 3 weeks, and can possibly remain contagious for up to 6 weeks. Therefore infected dogs should be quarantined and have no, or limited exposure to other dogs until the risk has past. Prevention of Parvovirus Treating parvo can be costly (running thousands of dollars). Having your puppy or dog vaccinated to prevent parvovirus infection is the only effective prevention. Puppies too young to receive vaccinations, or only partially through their vaccination regime, should have limited exposure to outdoor areas such as dog parks to prevent exposure to viruses such as parvo.
We often recommend this for all puppies until their vaccination series in completed at age 16 weeks.. The Parvo vaccine is usually given as part of a combination shot which includes, among others, the distemper and coronavirus vaccines. These shots are given every 3 to 4 weeks from the time a puppy is 6 weeks old until he is at least 16 weeks of age. Since the introduction of effective vaccinations, parvovirus has become much less of a threat to domesticated dogs. That said, parvovirus is a serious illness if contracted, so taking the necessary step towards prevention is key to avoid putting your dog at risk. All Creatures typically sees several puppies and dogs infected with Parvo Virus a month. It is still quite prevalent in our area, and we urge dog owners to bring their puppies and dogs in for proper vaccination to prevent this potentially fatal disease. The cost of prevention is quite minimal compared to the cost of treatment, and possible loss of your family pet. If you have any questions about Parvo or other illnesses your dog could be exposed to please call and speak with one of our knowledgeable technicians. Dr. Dan Meakin is founder and chief of staff of All Creatures Animals Hospital with offices in Amelia, Anderson, and Mt. Washington.

Bookworm Sez ‘A Golden Voice’ is an uplifting memoir Some people can sing like angels. They can lift their voices in such a way that makes you absolutely sure you’re hearing heaven. With words, they can make you cry or dance. Some people can run faster than sound. Others can wiggle their noses or ears. Some have a way with babies or dogs, know how to turn sugar into cupcakes, or can do magic with numbers. One way or another, everybody has a talent that other people recognize. But, as you’ll see in “A Golden Voice,” author Ted Williams (with Bret Witter) almost squandered his on the streets. By his own account, Ted
TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER THE BOOKWORM SEZ
Williams had a happy childhood filled with visits to Coney Island, subway rides, and lots of toys. Though his Bedford-Stuyvesant neighbors were mostly poor, his parents weren’t: Julia and Al Williams, long-married and childless when they adopted Ted, were well-off and Ted, a people-loving “giver” was happy to share his good fortune with friends. Williams was indulged, and when he became obsessed with radio at age 12, his mother treated him to a

tape recorder for Christmas. It was a life-changer. Williams remembers how he carried that tape recorder around, inventing commercials and pretending to be like his radio-announcer heroes. Coincidentally, puberty hit around this time and, to his delight, he received a gift of a golden voice. The voice took him to a tiny radio station in South Carolina. It took him to Columbus, Ohio, where he worked his way up to the top: Columbus’ number-one disc jockey, in demand from advertisers, concertgoers, and record-promoters. But Williams, ever the people-pleasing performer, loved a good time. Getting alcohol was easy at concerts, as was cocaine. It was a tiny step from cocaine to crack. Within weeks, Williams lost his job. He often didn’t return home, so he lost his family. He lost three different families, in fact, as well as several homes, possessions, sometimes his freedom, and his dignity. Getting “rock” was all he wanted. He didn’t care about anything but smoke. But then, as he hit bottom once again, he began to remember something that he’d learned nearly twenty years before, a bit of a Psalm that became a lifeline: “Acknowledge Him….” “A Golden Voice” is a bit of a conundrum. Self-professed peoplepleaser and author Ted Williams certainly pleased me with this memoir (with Bret Witter). There’s a little

bit of braggadocio in this book, enough wry humor to bring a smile, and plenty of humility – all of which fits the person we get to know and matches the man we saw online in the video last year. I liked that riches-torags-to-spiritual-riches tale. What doesn’t fit are the chapters by Williams’ girlfriend, Kathy. While they’re a horrifying accompaniment to illustrate the depths to which Williams descended, her personal story is not his story.
Still, those chapters don’t distract from a memoir that is both worshipful and worrisome at the same time, so if you’re looking for a book to enjoy, this is the one. For you, “A Golden Voice” will uplift yours. The Bookworm is Terri Schlichenmeyer. Terri has been reading since she was 3 years old and she never goes anywhere without a book. She lives on a hill in Wisconsin with two dogs and 12,000 books.
