Budget discussion

District to parents: Get involved in talks

By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Coffman High School hosted a packed house last week as Dublin City Schools officials and local legislators met to discuss state funding.

The message from Superintendent David Axner and treasurer Stephen Osborne to the parents and community members gathered was clear: Get involved

and contact your local legislator about the budget.

The district held the May 11 meeting to educate residents on how the state budget could affect funding Stephen for Dublin City Osborne Schools. Local legislators also were invited to give their take

on the two-year state budget (see relatMay told the crowd. ed story below).

Legislators weigh in on budget, effect on schools

Not unlike the residents they represent, local legislators hold various opinions on the proposed two-year state budget and its possible effects on Dublin City Schools.

During the May 11 public forum at Coffman High School, state representatives and senators discussed the budget that is set to cut $13.7 million in state funding to Dublin City Schools.

The cut would be spread over the next two years; the district expects to lose $6.1 million next year and $7.6 million in 2013.

According to its five-year forecast, the district was expected to take in $162 million for the 201112 fiscal year and $164 million in the following year. Expenditures were set at $172 million for the next fiscal year and $182 for 2012-13.

Superintendent David Axner has said the state funding cuts could mean larger class sizes and a reduction in David Axner programs.

Artist Andrea Myers and her husband, Adam Roelle, install her riverbox titled, “Fissures and Fractures,” inside Homestead Park on May 16. With this and two other other installations, there are now 10 riverboxes in the Dublin Art Council’s public-art Ripple Effect program. Myer’s riverbox is the first to be installed away from the Scioto River, but it sits near a body of water that flows into Hayden Run, which empties into the Scioto.

Mixed-use historic development Three works added to Riverbox collection seeks council input

By JENNIFER NOBLIT

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

With more than 6,000 visits logged to riverboxes around Dublin last year, three more will be unveiled this weekend.

The Dublin Arts Council has added three public art pieces to its collection of riverboxes that take visitors on a tour of Dublin’s parks through letterboxing or geocaching.

The riverbox project began in 2007 as part of the DAC’s “Ripple Effect: Artistic Impact of the Scioto River” and makes participants use maps or GPS coordinates along with clues to find riverboxes placed in Dublin’s riverfront parks.

The three added to the DAC’s collection, however, have to do with tributaries to the Scioto River in Washington Township parks.

About the riverboxes

By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Dublin Arts Council commissioned innovative and environmentally sensitive artists in 2007 to create riverboxes, public artworks that contain a unique, artistmade stamp, journal and information for Dublin residents and visitors to discover in parks along the banks of the Scioto River, according to the DAC’s website. The selected artists created their riverboxes in response to artistic, environmental and historical information provided about the six river access sites in Dublin.

The new riverboxes were placed in Homestead and Kaltenbach parks.

According to DAC executive director David Guion, the parks both have tributaries that feed into the Scioto River via Hayden Run Falls.

Janet Cooper, the DAC’s marketing and

public-relations manager, said the three additions mean 10 riverboxes have been placed around Dublin and Washington Township for hunting.

One of the riverboxes placed earlier this See THREE WORKS, page A7

The mixed-used development as proposed has 22,830 square feet of office space, 5,680 square feet of retail, 6,000 square feet of restaurant space with a 1,500square-foot patio, 31 residential condominiums and 126 parking spaces.

A three-story building with space for a restaurant, office, retail and residential is planned for the southern three parcels between Bridge Street and Wing Hill. The building would be connected to a four-story building between Wing Hill and North Street and would

A mixed-used development proposed to span six parcels along North Riverview Street in Historic Dublin drew excitement and concern from city council members.

A concept plan for the Riverview development that includes retail, office, commercial and residential space in two buildings went before council last week to gauge opinion.

The concept plan has gone before the architectural review board and the planning and zoning commission for preliminary review. See COUNCIL INPUT, page A2

Clean diesel test gets state attention

Pete Hamer, of High Performance Clean Diesel creator EcoChem, shows a comparison of fuel emissions from Dublin City School buses.

A month into testing a new environmentfriendly fuel, Dublin has seen favorable results.

Through a partnership with Washington Township, Dublin City Schools and central Ohio farmers co-op Marion Oil, Dublin is testing a highperformance clean diesel fuel that claims to boost mileage and decrease emissions.

The city last week invited Ohio Environmental Protection Agency director Scott Nally and others to check out the testing of the fuel created

by Dublin Entrepreneurial Center business EcoChem Alternative Fuels.

EcoChem approached Dublin about a year ago regarding testing the fuel on the city’s fleet, said Michelle Crandall, Dublin’s director of administrative services. Dublin will use it in city

District to parents: Get involved in budget talks Continued from page A1 $14.5 million over the course of the twoyear state budget, but amendments approved in the House of Representatives have reduced that figure to $13.7 million.

According to Osborne, the district will lose $6.1 million next year and $7.6 million in 2013. Those reductions include a loss in foundation funding, which accounts for 9 percent of the district’s revenue. According to Osborne, the district received $13 million in foundation fund-

ing this year and anticipated $11.8 million next year.

Osborne said the district had anticipated a 10-percent cut in foundation funding but instead received an 18-percent cut.

“To see over 400 school districts in the state see an increase in state funding while we get an 18-percent decrease is just wrong to me,” he said.

Some districts are seeing an increase in foundation funding in the state budget. The approach, dubbed by some leg-

islators as a “Robin Hood budget,” decreases state foundation funding to higher-wealth districts and gives it to lowperforming, low-wealth districts.

“We were bracing for what was coming. We knew it was a $6-, $7-, $8 billion funding gap,” Axner said. “When we looked at about 400 districts, they’re getting more money. … Maybe our hit has to be a little bigger, but why are some districts getting more?”

With 90 percent of the district’s expenditures spent on staff, Axner said,

class sizes will increase and services will be reduced with the state cuts.

“Across the board, we’ll be very challenged to keep all those on track,” he said.

According to Osborne, the district would need a levy of more than 4 mills to make up for the loss in state funding.

The district does not plan to ask voters to make up for the loss with a levy issue, though.

Axner said the district would not begin collecting for a new levy until 2013, but discussion on whether to ask voters for

a new operating levy in 2011 or 2012 currently is in the works.

Regardless, Axner said, Dublin City Schools “will continue to be one of the best districts in Ohio” and will continue to “work as hard as we can.”

Axner asked community members in attendance to contact local legislators to let them know their opinions of the budget.

“Let’s lock arms in Dublin and get this done,” he said, “and get some of this funding back for our district.”

Legislators weigh in on budget, effect on schools COUNCIL INPUT not going to raise taxes.”

Jordan acknowledged that the budget takes a “Robin Hood” approach to school funding and said it should be stopped.

“We’ve got to stop at the state level awarding failure,” he said.

“We’ve got to stop punishing people who do the right thing. … It’s irresponsible to reward failures.

We’re going to continue working on that.”

State Sen. Karen Gillmor (RTiffin) said a meeting with the principal and a few teachers at Jerome High School showed her that educators are frustrated and worried that a cut in funding could undo hard work and high performance among students.

“We pay for 89 percent of the funding for 14,000 students (at Dublin City Schools),” she said.

“If we pay 100 percent, we might as well call it Dublin Academy and make it a private school.”

The budget has passed through the Ohio House and is in the Senate.

Gillmor said she wants to find ways to get Dublin more funding.

People in the school district have saved and sacrificed to live there, she said, and teachers have worked hard.

State Sen. Jim Hughes (R-Columbus) said he wants to work to increase funding for high-performing schools Jim Hughes like Dublin.

“I have met with (Superintendent) David Axner and (treasurer) Stephen Osborne more than five times on this issue,” he said.

“We’re looking at trying to find

funds to help you out of this. …

It is important to reward those that succeed.”

Hughes also mentioned federal American Recovery & Reinvestment Act money the Dublin school district has not yet claimed.

According to Osborne, the district received a little more than $700,000 from President Barack Obama’s Education Jobs Fund, and it may be used this year or next.

“We’re waiting to spend that until next year,” he told ThisWeek.

The district will use the money to help cover some of the loss in state funds, he said.

After the Senate committees are finished with the budget, it will be sent to the Senate for a vote and then back to the House for concurrence. If the House of Representatives does not concur, it will go to a joint Senate and House committee before it is passed to the governor. The state budget must be approved by June 30. The state’s new fiscal year begins July 1.

of office space on the southern building could be eliminated.

Council member Cathy Boring said she was “not enamored” with the proposed architecture, and Mayor Tim Lecklider agreed.

“In my view, I would have the architecture complement the river more than BriHi Square,” he said.

Some feedback was positive.

“I love the project,” Marilee Chinnici-Zuercher said. “It’s exactly what I would have anticipated years ago when these homes were bought up.”

“I think it will be a pretty neat project,” council member John Reiner said, adding that his primary concerns were over parking and the development’s height.

With preliminary comments from the ARB, P&Z and council, the next step for the development will be to submit a rezoning and preliminary plan. jnoblit@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Continued from page A1 host only residential space.

Council members’ concerns were similar to those of other boards.

With only one- and two-story buildings around the historic district, council members expressed concern about the scale of the proposed mixed-use development.

“The view is kind of disturbing,” Michael Keenan said of a scale drawing.

“I have concern with height, parking and the scale of the buildings,” vice mayor Amy Salay said.

Council member Richard Gerber said he was concerned about parking. The development is planning 74 public spaces and 52 private spaces, but the city requires 358.

Gerry Bird, developer representative, said angled parking could add up to 140 spaces along Blacksmith Lane and the top floor

school board president Lynn May reminded the large crowd of parents, educators and community members in attendance that the $13.7 million cut expected over the next two years wouldn’t come from local school levies but instead from state funds.

“The state expects us to make up for the money with local funding,” she said.

State Rep. Mike Duffey (R-Worthington) spoke first, saying the state is in a difficult position as it tries to fill Mike Duffey an $8 billion hole in the budget.

“If cuts were made in the past, we wouldn’t be in this position now,” the freshman representative said. “The only other option is a statewide tax increase. … It’s in your best interest not to have a statewide tax increase. It’s easier for you to raise taxes here. Money taken by the state will not come back.”

According to Duffey, the Dublin school district is in the fifth-best position in Franklin County to address the state funding cuts because it could cover the lost revenue more easily via a levy.

“There is no good solution,” he said, reminding the crowd that Dublin is in a better position than many other districts in the state.

Freshman state Rep. Andrew Brenner (R-Powell) was stuck in an education committee meeting and sent legislative aide Josh Brown in his stead.

Brown said Brenner is against

raising taxes but was “not happy” with the budget. “He did not think good schools should have to take this,” Brown said.

Citing Senate Bill 5, which limits union bargaining as a tool to help the district save money, Brown said Brenner would work to “reverse the Robin Hood budget.”

Rep. John Patrick Carney (D-Clintonville) received applause for his “no” vote on the budget and his idea of putJohn Patrick ting excess Carney money the state receives into education.

“We’re getting more tax revenue than we thought,” he said. “I suggest that all those dollars should be given back to local schools.”

With a shortfall in the state budget, Carney said, he understands difficult decisions must be made, but funding should go to K-12 education, which he considers economic development.

“We’re selling off a lot of assets of the state,” Carney said, citing Gov. John Kasich’s plan to sell five prisons and the state liquor agency. “If we’re going to sell that off, shouldn’t we give the money to what we know works?”

For freshman state Sen. Kris Jordan (R-Powell), the proposed budget is challenging.

“This year Kris Jordan may be painful for some,” he said. “It may not be what everyone wants to hear, but we need an adult budget. We’re

Bogey returns with new look, management

By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Bogey will be back in time for the Memorial Tournament.

The Bogey Bar and Grill has slated its grand opening for June 13 but plans to be open for the Memorial Tournament (May 30 to June 5).

Its new owners hope to “wow” patrons with its new look.

“My husband (Jeff) is from Dublin,” owner Tressa Parenteau said. “He went to Dublin Coffman High School. He always had a memory of this place, just like everyone else. He also has a passion for renovation and saw potential for his construction company to do something here.”

The result is a higher ceiling in the bar, with lots of stucco and stone throughout the restaurant.

“We still want the Bogey feel, but we’ve definitely renovated it and cleaned it up,” Parenteau said.

The Parenteaus also brought in locals to help run the new Bogey. They recruited Chris Parker, who has worked at Brazenhead and Matt the Millers as general manager, and former Smith & Wollensky executive chef Chris Hamilton.

“Because we are here in Dublin and Muirfield, we wanted to give (the Bogey) a neighborly feel,” Parenteau said. “That’s why we got Chris Parker. We wanted it to be somewhere that knows its customers, what they drink and eat.”

The menu still will feature bar food, but Hamilton will add some entrees to the mix and serve seasonal fare.

“We have homemade pizzas, no frozen dough,” Parenteau said. “We have sweet-potato fries, made in house.”

Construction was ongoing last week, but the restaurant plans to be open when crowds gather at Muirfield for the Memorial Tournament.

Parenteau said they used the experience of a former Bogey owner to help organize festivi-

ties at the restaurant.

“We’ll do everything the same way for the tournament,” she said.

The restaurant is offering VIP packages at the Bogey house, which sits on the 12th hole.

Packages include parking, food, drinks, restrooms and other amenities.

“It’s on the championship hole. You can see where they tee off,” Parenteau said. “You can watch it from start to finish.”

The restaurant began hosting volleyball leagues on the patio last week and sees about 500 players a week. The restaurant wasn’t quite finished, but they were able to offer players a small menu and drinks.

Operations manager and chief performance officer Greg Bertison said people often wander in, asking if the Bogey is open.

“It’s encouraging. Every day people stop by,” he said. “They embrace this as part of the community.”

Parenteau said the restaurant in turn plans to embrace the community by getting involved in charity work. A fundraiser for Pelatonia is planned, along with a few other events, she said.

“Jeff grew up here, and when he heard this place was on the market, he started to call and call,” she said. “He was very persistent and passionate to see what we can do with this place.”

After conducting employee interviews, Parker said, nearly everyone had a story about visiting the Bogey.

“I was pleasantly surprised during a lot of the interviews,” he said. “So many people had been here with their family. They were brought here as kids. When they told their parents they were coming here, they were excited and wanted to hear all about it. … It’s impressive to see how many people have fond memories of this place.”

Parenteau said they hope to make many new memories for customers and will offer live music, Family Fun Sundays and other events around Halloween and New Year’s.

Community collaboration is invaluable in promoting Dublin Henry Ford said, “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” Mr. Ford’s recipe for success isn’t applicable just to the automotive industry.

Collaboration is critically important to the success of any organization, as we at the Dublin Convention & Visitors Bureau have discovered through longtime partnerships with local organizations that have helped us to leverage marketing dollars, draw visitors to town and generate millions of dollars in revenue for the city.

The CVB has no greater partner than the city of Dublin. Although the bureau is a separate nonprofit organization and is not affiliated with the city, we are always looking for opportunities to collaborate and maximize each other’s efforts. There are many examples of how the city and the bureau work collaboratively together — from creating marketing materials to sell the city of Dublin to attending trade shows to secure large conferences and conventions to Dublin.

Combining marketing dollars enables us to advertise in a wide variety of publications.

Another great benefit of our partnership with the city is our ability to attract events to the city, generating millions of dollars to the local economy. Past examples of these types of events include the Can-Am Police Fire Games, the U.S. Checkers Championship, the Ohio Conference on Tourism and many others. Presently, Dublin is a finalist to host the 2012 U.S. Australian Rules Football Na-

tional Championship. The event would attract visitors from across the world and generate an estimated $900,000 economic impact. The selection committee will tour Dublin this week, and both the city and bureau will work together to showcase all SCOTT of the great assets of our city.

The bureau not only works DRING closely with the city of Dublin to maximize its efforts but also collaborates with other community organizations. Some of these organizations include Dublin City Schools, Washington Township, Dublin Chamber of Commerce, Dublin Arts Council and others. We also work closely with the Historic Dublin Business Association to promote the great offerings in the BriHi District in Historic Dublin for our visitors. We help promote events like Slainte Thursdays, speak at employee training sessions and provide support in their marketing efforts.

We encourage local organizations with visitorfriendly events to contact us to help promote these activities through our social-media efforts. As always, we would love to hear your feedback on this.

As it were

Post-Revolutionary War land was cheap in Ohio Ohio did not exist when the Nelsons came into the place that later would become Columbus. In 1800, central Ohio was truly on the edge of the frontier that had been claimed by the victory of Gen. Anthony Wayne’s army at the Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794.

It was a long, difficult and nasty struggle.

After the end of the French and Indian War in 1763, Great Britain had claimed by treaty rights most of the land north and west of the Ohio River. It was a rich land with deep forests, great prairies and rivers that ran clean, wide and deep.

It was a land worth fighting for and many people did just that.

Wanting to maintain the lucrative fur trade that had made a fortune for the French, the British government tried to keep its restless Atlantic colonists away from Ohio. It was a vain effort. The initial ventures of men called “long hunters” soon were followed by dozens and then hundreds of settlers seeking to find a new home in a new country. The American Indian residents of the Ohio Valley resisted the newcomers, and the result often was violent and deadly on both sides. Then came the American Revolution, and the Ohio country was the scene of even more death and destruction.

At the end of the Revolution, the newly created United States found itself with an unpaid army and a lot of very large debts. While the new country had little money, it had a lot of land. So the new country paid its soldiers and creditors in land and offered much of what remained for sale. It was the promise of that new and inexpensive land that drew people like David Nelson and his family to Ohio.

Born in 1752, David Nelson was the oldest son of Robert and Martha Nelson of Anderson’s Ferry, Pa. When David was 3, the family moved to the frontier of Juniata County, Pa., and it was there that David came of age. After the outbreak of the American Revo-

lution, he enlisted with several relatives in the “Eighth C o m p a n y, Fourth Battalion of Associators and Militia of Cumberland ED County, PennLENTZ sylvania” on July 31, 1777. On May 14, 1778, he was commissioned a captain after serving through the long winter at Valley Forge.

In March 1779, David returned to his home and soon married Margaret Logan, a widow with two young sons. In addition to raising the two boys, David and Margaret had seven children of their own.

The Nelsons lived in central Pennsylvania until 1798, when they decided to move west to the new and inexpensive lands in Ohio.

A grandchild later wrote a description of David Nelson in those years. “He was generous but stern, with a strict sense of duty and very strong in his prejudices. He was a very handsome man, abovemedium height, a fine person, regular features, black curly hair, very dark brown, almost black eyes.”

His wife, Margaret, once was

described as “the prettiest woman in the Lost Creek Valley” of Pennsylvania. “She had dark-brown hair, hazel eyes, regular features, fine complexion and was of a mild and kindly disposition.”

Like many other people of their generation, the Nelsons came to believe that a better life awaited them in the new lands north and west of the Ohio River. They moved first to Chillicothe and lived there while David and his oldest son, Robert, looked for a new home in central Ohio. They found it along Alum Creek in what then was called the Refugee Tract. Set aside for people from Nova Scotia who had lost land because of their loyalty to the American Revolution, the tract began at the Scioto River and ran east between what is now Fifth Avenue and Refugee Road.

After the claims of the refugees were settled, the balance of the tract was made available in open sale. David Nelson and his family acquired some of it. Arriving in central Ohio in 1800, the Nelsons built a log house that would serve as the family home for two decades.

May is Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month

Free Skin Cancer Screenings during the month of May. Skin cancer will affect 1 in 5 Americans in their lifetime and one person dies of melanoma — the deadliest form of skin cancer — every hour.

Yet, melanoma can have a 98% cure rate when detected early. That is why the American Academy of Dermatology recognizes May as Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention month.

As part of this initiative OSCI will provide free skin screenings during the month of May. The Ohio Skin Cancer Institute was founded

by Larisa Ravitskiy, MD, to provide you with the highest level of individualized skin cancer care.

OSCI uses the most sophisticated resources and cutting edge techniques in a warm and comfortable surrounding. Dr. Ravitskiy is a board-certified dermatologist and a fellowship-trained Mohs and reconstructive surgeon, specializing in the diagnosis and management of skin cancers.

Clean diesel test gets state attention Continued from page A1 fleet vehicles, and Washington Township is using it in fire trucks, but testing is going on with Dublin school buses. “The buses have consistent routes, which is good for testing,� city manager Marsha Grigsby said.

Mike Long, an independent consultant performing the fuel study, said 12 buses began using an ultralow-sulfur diesel fuel in March for baseline testing. On April 12, nine buses began using the high-performance clean diesel, with the remaining buses sticking to the low-sulfur diesel. “If the fuel is working as claimed, we’ll see an increase in hydrocarbons� during the beginning cleansing period, Long said, and they did.“All but one bus showed a decrease in (nitrogen oxides).�

As for mileage, Long said, test-

ing showed a “statistically significant increase.� The buses saw an average increase of 16 percent in mileage. “We’re seeing improvements in miles per gallon and a reduction in emissions,� said the EcoChem CEO and chairman, Josh Koch. “We’re able to deliver this technology to where it’s economically viable.�

Along with a decrease in the city’s carbon footprint, Crandall said, the fuel could offer savings. “If we realize a 10-percent increase in fuel efficiency, we’ll see $135,000 to $150,000 per year in savings,� she said.

The Dublin school district purchases diesel from the city, Crandall said, and the district could see an annual savings of $100,000 with the clean diesel.

Nally applauded Dublin for organizing the partnership and testing a fuel that could help the state

reduce emissions and meet new air-quality standards. “This is a prime example of how business and environment can go hand in hand,� he said during the May 11 demonstration. “This is exciting. It’s something positive, and it has a positive bottom line.

We need to encourage more of this across the state.�

The study is not finished, though. The 12 Dublin school buses will continue with the testing until school ends late this month. An analysis of the fuel test should be available next month.

District business administrator Annette Morud said she hasn’t seen results of the tests yet, but after analysis, the district will discuss using the fuel.

Grigsby said the city has a yearlong contract to use the fuel and will use it on heavy fleet vehicles, such as snowplows and dump trucks.

At New Uses Only $50 described the importance of religion in their lives: “We have had an uncommon cold winter and a cold, wet spring. The fruit is nearly all killed, and the cornfields in many places will have to be planted over. There has been a revival of religion this winter, more than I have ever known, in Columbus, Chillicothe and different places. A number have been added to the church, both old and young. “The Presbyterian Meeting House was finished in the winter, when the roads were good for sleighing and the house was dedicated and the sacrament held the same week. There were four or five ministers in town, and one stayed six or eight weeks, visiting from house to house, having a sermon or prayer meeting at night and Bible classes.�

The Nelsons lived in one of the first suburbs of the new capital city of Ohio for a number of years until the death of David Nelson in 1829. His wife, Margaret, died two years later in 1831.

At the corner of Clifton Avenue and Nelson Road, a small sign remembers the Nelson mill and the frontier community that once was around it. And just up the road on the left — within sight of the sign -— still stands the red-brick house of the Nelsons of Nelson Road.

Margaret Nelson wrote to her son by a former marriage in 1801: “Our new cabin is dry, and we have plenty of room, and no matter what the weather, the chimney does not smoke. My two ewes and three lambs had 10 pounds of clean, picked wool, which we are beginning to feel the need of. Last year, we had 50 yards of linen out of our hemp.

We have lost two milch cows and one heifer. They are dead before we know they are sick. We have four milch cows and two heifers yet, without going in debt for them. The families along the creek have been tolerably healthy, except Mr. Turner. He had the fever and ague and Mr. Hamilton and some of the children, too. I have had my health this season as well as ever I had.�

In 1819, David Nelson built a large brick house along the road that later would bear his name.

Strong in their religious faith, they were early supporters of the first Presbyterian Church founded in the area by the Rev. James Hoge. For many years, the family traveled along a mud path through the forest to the church, first in Franklinton and then in the new village of Columbus. The path later became Broad Street.

A later letter from Margaret Nelson to her son Ed Lentz writes a history column for ThisWeek.

Three works added to Riverbox collection

Page A7

R es t ge aurant, M artini Bistro Loun

Continued from page A1 week in Homestead Park was inspired by slate.

Artist Andrea Myers, a Columbus native, said that after visiting the park, she wanted to do some kind of rock formation one might find around the pond in the park.

“I started doing research on different rock formations around Ohio,” she said.

The research led her to slate rock, which is abundant in Ohio.

Slate rock also has layers that often are utilized in Myers’ work.

“I’m very in line with that idea,” she said.

The artwork hidden in Homestead Park, called “Fissures and Fractures,” is the first outdoor piece for Myers. “I had to use creative problem-solving, how to make something weatherproof,” she said.

The public-art aspect also added another challenge to the creative process.

“I was trying to make sure it’s as durable and interactive as possible. Most of my pieces are made to be in a gallery, where they’re not touched,” she said.

The artist, who teaches at CCAD, currently has some work on display at the McCormick

Artist Andrea Myers installs her riverbox titled, “Fissures and Fractures” inside Homestead Park on May 16.

Gallery in Chicago and is represented by the Steven Zevitas Gallery in Boston. For this art, she had to make it “OK to be touched” so people who find the riverbox could open it and find the stamp and journal used in the riverbox search.

Other artists who crafted riverboxes are Cleveland-based Giancarlo Calicchia and Hartville-based artist Katlin Rothacher.

All three artists will be on hand from 10 a.m. to noon May 21 at Homestead Park’s Lakeside Pavilion, 4675 Cosgray Road, Hilliard, as the new riverboxes are unveiled.

The reception is free and open to the public.

Cooper said potato ink stamps and paper-bag journals to use in the riverbox hunt would be crafted during the artist reception May 21.

For more information on the public artworks or to find clues to the locations of the new riverboxes or any others at Dublin-area parks, visit dublinarts.org. Brochures with clues also will be distributed at the artist reception.

The new riverboxes were funded through a grant from Washington Township.

In brief Grant supplies food pantry with equipment The Dublin Food Pantry received a new refrigerator from a class of Ohio State University at Marion and Columbus State Community College students at the CSCC Delaware campus.

Students in an English course learned about service by awarding two grants to organizations.

Students learned about three nonprofit organizations and their needs.

After learning about the Dublin Food Pantry, the class decided to use $2,300 in “Pay It Forward” grant funds to purchase a commercial-grade refrigerator. The students also raised $700 for the $3,000 refrigerator.

“This new commercial-grade

refrigerator provides the pantry with an energy-efficient way to provide more fresh and nutritious food options and offers clients the ability to make healthy choices more efficiently,” Dublin Food Pantry executive director Linda Fisher said in a press release.

A story in the May 12 edition gave an incorrect title to a song being performed by the Community Band of Dublin. The song should have been called “Londonderry Air.”

Coffman, Scioto girls win OCC titles

By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers The Dublin Coffman and Dublin Scioto high school girls track and field teams turned in dominating performances in winning their respective OCC championships in league meets held May 12 and 14.

Both teams are hoping for similar success in Division I district meets this week.

Scioto won the OCC-Cardinal Division title at Pickerington North, scoring

150 points to finish ahead of secondplace Olentangy (116).

Coffman (164.5) finished ahead of host Hilliard Davidson (131) in the OCCCentral meet.

•The Scioto girls earned their second consecutive OCC-Cardinal title and will be seeking their first district title when they compete in the district 3 meet at Hilliard Bradley. The finals will be held on Saturday, May 21.

“We have a shot, which is all we can ask for against Reynoldsburg,” coach Matt Suttle said. “We’ll see what hap-

pens.”

The top four finishers in each event advance to the regional meet on May 25 and 27 at North.

Last season at the district 4 meet, Scioto was second (118) behind New Albany (120).

At the league meet, senior Rachel Christian led the Irish by finishing first in the 100 meters (12.28 seconds) and the 200 (25.88).

Distance specialists and twin sisters Minori Minagawa and Sakiko Minagawa tuned up for district with strong

efforts in the league meet. Minori was first in the 1,600 (5:13.07) and Sakiko was first in the 3,200 (11:56.51).

Minori and Sakiko joined Wiebke Schneider and Jessica Cronau in winning the 3,200 relay (9:42.21).

Brooklyn Robertson won the long jump (16 feet, 10 1/4 inches).

“We got performances all around,” Suttle said.

The Scioto boys finished seventh (49.5) behind first-place Westerville Central (126.5).

Luis Carbajal led the Irish, finishing

first in the 1,600 (4:21.31) and third in the 800 (1:57.16).

Last season at the district 2 meet, Scioto was 10th (24) behind first-place Olentangy Liberty (121).

•The Coffman girls finished first in eight events to win the OCC-Central meet.

It was the Shamrocks’first league title since winning the OCC-Central in 2001.

“It’s a big deal,” coach Greg King said. “The girls really wanted to win.”

Lacrosse

Celtics maintain hold on Emerald Cup trophy

By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Dublin Jerome High School boys lacrosse team put its only disappointment of the regular season far into its rearview mirror before the postseason.

After losing to Bloomfield Hills (Mich.) Brother Rice 9-6 on May 6 in a semifinal of the Midwest Scholastic Lacrosse Coaches Association “A” Bracket tournament in Hudson, the Celtics left the event with a third-place finish by beating Cincinnati St. Xavier 14-11 the next day.

Jerome then beat Scioto 15-2 on May 9 and Coffman 11-6 on May 14 to capture the Emerald Cup for the seventh consecutive season.

The wins over Scioto and Coffman also gave the Celtics their first outright league championship as well as an extra emotional boost as they look to defend their state

title.

Jerome finished 6-0 to win the OCC-Buckeye Division and earned the top seed for the Division II Central Region tournament. It opens the postseason Friday, May 20, at home against Wellington or Johnstown.

“It feels unbelievable,” goalkeeper Nick Simonetti said. “We haven’t lost (the Emerald Cup) yet and it’s one of our goals every year.

Our defense did a great job. We don’t dwell on the past, and the rest of the season we just want to win out.”

“Since we beat UA (6-4 on April 27), it gives us our first OCC outright win,” midfielder Joe Bano said. “That was one of the things we wanted. The next one is to win the state title.”

Bano and Simonetti have been major reasons for Jerome’s success.

Simonetti had 15 saves against the Shamrocks in support of a de-

fense that allowed more than 10 goals during just one regular-season game.

Both Jerome coach A.J. Auld and Coffman coach Mark Forsythe credited Bano’s ability to win faceoffs as a key aspect in the victory.

The wing play of Wes Faulkenberry and Nick Neale, as well as the Celtics’ other faceoff midfielder, Gray Leesburg, has been a strength all season, according to Auld.

Against Coffman, Todd Babione scored four goals and Leo Horine and Bano both added two goals for Jerome. The Celtics built a 6-1 first-quarter lead and never led by fewer than four goals after that.

“My hats off to (the Shamrocks) for coming out in the second half and playing as hard as they did,” Auld said. “I felt like we had a pretty good game plan, and it took us playing well to execute it. I See LACROSSE, page B7

Goalie Nick Simonetti and Luke Potter celebrate the Celtics’ victory alongside Chris Kendall (15).

The doubles team of Kent Seitz and Sean Stein may have surprised some opponents last year by placing third in the Division I district tournament to become the first members of the Dublin Jerome High School boys tennis team to advance to state, where they placed fourth.

However, heading into the district tournament on Friday, May 20, and Saturday, May 21, at Hilliard Davidson, Irish coach Aaron Bauer said the duo no longer will be able to catch anyone by surprise.

The top four finishers in singles and doubles at district advance to the state tournament May 27-28 at Davidson.

“Sean and Kent were able to sneak up on some teams last year, because no one from our team had had much success at the district level in the past,” Bauer said.

“But they’ve got to be prepared to receive everyone’s best shot this year, because people probably have circled their names after what they accomplished last season. What Sean and Kent accomplished last year is really a double-edged sword, because it’s great to have that experience of having been successful at district and state before, but it also puts more of a target on their backs.”

Seitz and Stein went 4-0 to win the sectional May 12 and May 14 at Davidson, beating Big Walnut’s Sam Lawless and Nathan Randall 6-2, 6-4 in a semifinal and Gahanna’s Stephen Cheng and Canyon Teague 6-3, 6-3 in the final.

Frank Kuo went 4-1 in singles, beating Davidson’s Kevin Blackstone 6-4, 6-1 in a semifinal and losing to Gahanna’s Jesse Shivener 6-2, 6-2 in the final.

The top four placers in singles and doubles qualified for district.

“Sean and Kent were able to win their first two matches pretty easily (by scores of 6-0, 6-0) and they played well throughout the tournament,” Bauer said. “The biggest advantage of winning sectional is you don’t have to play the winner of another sectional until after you’ve qualified for state.”

Softball

Inconsistent play derailed Shamrocks

By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Before this season, Dublin Coffman High School softball coach Kevin Finan expected a strong performance from his team in the OCC-Central Division followed by a run in the Division I district tournament.

The Shamrocks showed glimpses of promise this season, but finished 8-19 overall and 311 in the OCC-Central.

Coffman’s season ended May 16 with a 10-1 win over Westland in a rescheduled league game. Westland defeated Coffman 9-6 on April 7.

The Shamrocks lost to Olentangy Liberty 2-1 in the first round of the Division I district tournament on May 10.

Coffman finished seventh in the OCC-Central as Central Crossing won the title. The Comets were 13-0 and had clinched the title although final league standings had not been determined by May 17.

Finan said a 4-2 win over Worthington Kilbourne on April 15 was a highlight of the season. The Wolves defeated Coffman 7-3 on May 4.

Kilbourne, which is seeded fifth in the district tournament, played Delaware in a district semifinal on May 18.

Coffman’s other OCC-Central win was 2-1 over Hilliard Darby on April 29.

Coffman lost to Westerville North, another district semifinalist, 8-7 in eight innings on May 14. The Shamrocks lost to Central Crossing 10-5 on April 5 and 8-1 on April 21.

“We hit pretty well all year,” Finan said. “That kind of kept us in some games. We hung with a lot of teams.”

The Shamrocks will have to replace seniors Stacy Axner, Kimmi Bussell, Linda Cardozo, Jen Carney, Rachel DeRosa, Meghan Glynn, Cassi Ladina and Georgianne McNutt.

Cardozo was the team’s No. 1 pitcher. Junior Alex MeisnerRathbun is expected to take over the main pitching duties next season.

Finan said the addition of sophomore catcher Meredith Mockler to the starting lineup midway through the season gave the team a boost.

Junior Kayla Whitehouse was batting a team-high .451 before the game against Westland on May 16, followed by Bussell (.430) and junior Courtney Colles (.372).

Other players expected to return next season include juniors Kaylie Schimming, Lauren Till-

man and Maggie Watson and sophomores Emily Barber, Tiffany Kula and Quynh Vo. “These kids work their butts off,” Finan said. “I really love the senior class. They worked really hard. They did everything I asked them to do. We said we needed to improve our hitting and we did.”

•Scioto finished 6-17 overall and 2-12 in the OCC-Cardinal after defeating Jerome 2-0 in a rescheduled game on May 16.

Scioto swept the season series with Jerome, also winning 1-0 on April 15.

The Irish split two district tournament games, beating MarionFranklin 14-0 in five innings in the first round on May 10 and losing to second-seeded Gahanna 11-0 in five innings on May 12.

Against Marion-Franklin, sophomore pitcher Mckenzie Nelsen recorded her first no-hitter.

Nelsen and junior Paige Heasley should again give the Irish solid pitching next season.

Coach Greg Menssen will look to replace seniors Sarah Griggs (3B) and Paige Waugh (OF).

“They’re both nice kids, and they’re both definitely assets on the field,” Menssen said. “Sarah is real solid at third base and Paige has been a starting outfielder for three years.”

Menssen expects juniors Kate DeVantier (OF), Katie Pezzot (C) and Allie Willman (SS) to help form a strong nucleus next season.

Other players expected to return include sophomore Marie

Storey and freshmen Kelsey Esterline, Casey Mandiville, Kate Namola, Kathleen O’Brien, Andi Smith and Abby Willman.

Scioto finished seventh in the OCC-Cardinal behind co-champions Westerville North and Marysville (11-3), Westerville Central (9-5), Olentangy (9-5), Westerville South (6-8) and Olentangy Liberty (6-8), and ahead of Jerome (1-13).

“We’re just really inexperienced and really young,” Menssen said. “I don’t know where our expectations should be. It’s hard to tell when you’re watching yourself in the gym versus playing a game on a field against another opponent.”

•Although her team only had one win in the OCC-Cardinal and two overall, Jerome coach Sarah Looker was pleased that her players continued to improve.

The Celtics finished 2-17 overall.

Jerome lost to host Teays Valley 10-0 in five innings in a Division I district tournament firstround game on May 10.

“For us only to be down by two runs going into the fifth inning, I think that says a lot about our girls,” Looker said. “Teays Valley is a very good hitting team.

They have girls who will play Division I softball, so I think the girls from Dublin Jerome really held their own.”

Teays Valley advanced to a district semifinal, where it played fourth-seeded Grove City on May 17.

The Celtics’ OCC-Cardinal win came against host Westerville South 2-1 on April 30.

Jerome’s other win was 3-2 over Franklin Heights in the opener on March 28.

The Celtics lost to Coffman 30 on May 9.

Looker must replace seniors

Baseball

Defense key to Jerome’s tournament wins

By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Defense was the biggest weakness for the Dublin Jerome High School baseball team during the regular season when the Celtics lost 14 of 26 games.

However, the Celtics played strong defense while upsetting sixth-seeded Hilliard Davidson 2-0 on May 11 in the second round of the Division I district tournament.

Jerome made one error, and Davidson committed three.

“This was a defensive battle, and the kids came through with one of their best defensive games of the season at the right time,” coach Chris Huesman said. “We made one error, but it didn’t cost us anything.”

Sophomore Jeremy Johnson pitched a four-hitter, striking out five and walking three.

Aaron Huesman provided all the offensive support Johnson would need with a two-run home run in the top of the fourth inning.

“Jeremy hit his spots and pitched a real gem,” coach Huesman said. “He showed a lot of composure on the mound for a sophomore. We did our homework, and we knew we matched up well with Davidson.”

The Celtics played second-seeded Coffman on May 17 in a district semifinal. The winner plays fifth-seeded Gahanna or 10thseeded Watkins Memorial in the final on Thursday, May 19, at Jerome.

The winner advances to a regional semifinal May 26 at Coffman. The regional final is May 27 at Coffman.

Jerome lost to New Albany 101 in a district final year ago.

“With the schedule we’ve played, we’ve seen the top pitchers in the state and we’re totally prepared going into the tournament,” coach Huesman said. “Our pitching and hitting have been consistently good. We don’t really fear any other team in the tournament. The only team we have to fear is ourselves because de-

Adam Hall pitched a two-hitter with seven strikeouts and no

Ryan Leffel went 2-for-4 with a home run, double and three RBI, Jacob Plecki went 2-for-3 with a double and three RBI, Austin Cousino went 2-for-4 with two doubles and three RBI, and Stephen Panchyshyn went 2-for3 with a double and three RBI. “We knew we outmanned Westland in most positions, so we just had to put the ball into play and they eventually started to throw the ball around as we put guys on base,” coach Tim Saunders said.

A day later, the Shamrocks beat Scioto 13-11 in a game in which they had to rally from a 7-3 deficit and work out of a bases-loaded jam with one out in the top of the seventh.

Matt Davis went 3-for-3 with a two-run home run, Leffel went 4-for-4 with four RBI and Matt DiThomas, Cousino and Plecki each had two RBI. Saunders said the Shamrocks can’t afford to make three errors and walk eight batters, as they did against Scioto, in tournament play.

“We kept walking people and making mistakes to let them back into the game,” Saunders said. “To win in the tournament our pitchers need to keep us in games and we need to eliminate those errors and unearned runs with good defense. The big key for us is going to be getting timely hits.”

•Scioto opened the Division I district tournament on May 9 with a 12-2 victory over Lancaster.

“We hit the ball extremely well and our pitching held Lancaster down,” coach Patrick Elias said.

But the Irish lost to third-seeded New Albany 9-0 in the second round two days later.

“New Albany’s pitching stands out, but we had two guys on with no outs in the first inning and we couldn’t find a way to knock them in,” Elias said. “This game was indicative of our season. We had four errors and gave up eight unearned runs. We just didn’t play good defense.” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Bobcats, Evans learn life lesson, share league title

By Paul Vernon/ThisWeek

Coffman’s Leon Cai and teammate Jack Buchan finished third May 14 in the Division I district tournament at Upper Arlington.

TENNIS Continued from page B1 Bauer considers Upper Arlington’s Stu Little and Billy Weldon to be the favorite to win district, after the duo went 3-0 against Seitz and Stein last season on the way to winning district and state titles.

But Bauer said Seitz and Stein still could be successful at state even if they do not win district, as they proved last season.

“Central Ohio has been the strongest district for doubles tennis the past three or four years, so it isn’t the end of the world if we don’t finish first,” Bauer said.

“The most important thing is that we play well enough to make it to state, so we can try to peak there. We just need to keep playing our game. Sean has the best hands and volleys that I’ve ever seen in the 15 years that I’ve been around high school tennis. Kent’s very good at the baseline, but it’s important that he has a presence at the net, too, so that we can control the net.”

The Celtics finished first on all five courts in the OCC-Cardinal Division tournament that concluded May 10 to win their second consecutive league title.

Jerome finished 7-0 in the league with 77 points, ahead of Olentangy Liberty (6-1, 51), Scioto (5-2, 38), Westerville Central (4-3, 37), Westerville South (2-5, 19), Marysville (1-6, 16), Westerville North (3-4, 16) and Olentangy (0-7, 12).

The Celtics went 3-0 on all five courts. Stein (first singles) took a 6-1 lead over Liberty’s Mitchell Lothes in the final before Lothes had to default because of a back injury.

Seitz (second singles) beat Liberty’s Alexander Hathaway 103 in the final and Kuo (third singles) defeated Liberty’s Vick Chhabria 10-3 in the final.

Alex Hessler and Jarden Judson (first doubles) beat Central’s Evan DiPangrazio and Trevor Bartholomew 10-3 in the final, and Sunny Feng and Cameron Sheley (second doubles) defeated Liberty’s Shashank Sirivolu and Kyle Flahive 10-6 in the final.

“This year, it was our expectation to win the OCC, because we have almost everyone back from last year’s team,” Bauer said.

“But it was nice to win every court.”

•Three of Coffman players placed in the top four in the Division I sectional at Upper Arlington to qualify for district.

“Hiromi qualified to district the past two years, so he definitely expected to get through our sectional with no problem,”

Page B5

coach Brett Hundertpfund said.

“This is the first time for Leon and Jack to make it, so they’re excited.”

Nakayama went 2-2 and placed fourth at district last year to advance to state for a second consecutive season.

“Hiromi just needs to use his strengths, which are his speed and accuracy, and he’ll do well,” Hundertpfund said.

“The key for Jack and Leon is to play well at the net and put balls away when they have the chance. Both Jack and Leon have good serves and groundstrokes, and they complement each other well. They’re best friends and that kind of chemistry is hard to find.” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Participation in sports is much more than kids burning off excess energy playing games. It’s a microcosm of life.

Athletes not only learn how to hit a baseball or softball, how to make a bounce pass in the lane, how to execute a double-leg takedown or how to condition and pace themselves during a twomile run. They also acquire skills needed to work with others toward a common goal, to win or lose gracefully and to play by the rules.

Sometimes, though, the interpretation of rules can interfere with the efforts put forth by competitors and, for lack of a better explanation, make no sense.

Take, for example, an outstanding effort by Luke Evans, a freshman on the Grandview Heights High School boys track and field team.

With the Bobcats and Liberty Union tied for the lead (123 points) before the final two events of the MSL-Cardinal Division meet May 13 at Berne Union, Evans and teammate Chase Gage finished second (10 minutes, 25.0 seconds) and third (10:27.59), respectively, in the 3,200 meters behind Austin McClean of West Jefferson (10:19.69).

That gave the Bobcats a 137132 edge before the final event, the 1,600 relay. The lead was short lived because Evans was disqualified minutes after his race because of a uniform violation.

He was wearing black tights that fell a few inches below the hem on his uniform. That was OK;

regulation, if you will.

The problem was found a couple of inches above the hem of his running SCOTT shorts — a HENNEN segment of half-inch gray stitching on one side of the black tights, an abnormality that would not have been seen without his running shorts hiking up while he was running. A distraught Evans walked across the football field inside the track, head looking upward and hands interlocked just above the back of his neck.

After the disqualification, Grandview trailed 134-131.

“It had nothing to do with the race, it had nothing to do with the kids. It was just a rule,” Grandview coach Brian Schoch said. “I know it’s a rule, so I guess they had to call it.”

But not without discussion.

Schoch and several other coaches debated with officials for several minutes, but to no avail.

Evans was ticketed for the track equivalent of driving 68 mph in a 65-mph zone.

Grandview’s 1,600 relay of Joe Trapp, Dylan Golding, Ben Mathes and Ryan Schofield then finished second (3:33.1) behind Licking Heights (3:32.54) and Liberty Union finished fourth (3:41.82), meaning the Bobcats See HENNEN, page B6

Continued from page B1 Freshman Beatrice Hannan led the Shamrocks, finishing first in the 100 (12.71) and 200 (25.47).

Rachel Weber was first in the 800 (2:20.01) and joined Megan Collins, Clarissa Bons and Julia Fries on the first-place 3,200 relay (9:34.84).

Isolde Hannan was first in the high jump (5-4).

Sara Johnson, Rylee Axner, Kaylee Taylor and Sydney Cohen were first in the 800 relay (1:46.65), and Johnson, Axner, McKenzie Bailey and Colleen Borland won the 400 relay (50.75).

Cohen, Fries, Taylor and Weber were first in the 1,600 relay (4:03.43).

Last season at the district 1 meet, Coffman was second (97.5) behind Gahanna (132).

“We have some momentum, and this gives us a good idea of who can qualify (for district) and what events we’re going to concentrate on,” King said. “We want to win a district title, but we really focus on making sure that we get people in the events that they can qualify in.”

The boys team finished second (158.5) behind Davidson (170.5) in the OCC-Central meet.

Coffman was first in nine events, led by Taylor Williams in the 100 (11.01) and 200 (22.22).

Williams, Daniel Chang, Matt Freese and Bilal Williamson were first in the 400 relay (43.01).

Robbie Daulton was first in the 1,600 (4:24.29) and 800 (1:56.62), and he joined Grant Onken, Michael Smithhisler and Kevin O’Leary on the first-place 3,200 relay (8:02.26).

Also finishing first were Adam Davidson in the 3,200 (9:51.86), Tyler Brown in the discus (14711) and Michael Bennett in the pole vault (14-0).

“We’re disappointed that we didn’t win the league, but the kids are more satisfied with the fact that we got first in nine of the 17 events,” coach Jim Ferguson said. “We feel this sets the kids up pretty well to move on from the district semifinals to the finals and then hopefully into the regionals the following week.”

Last season in the district 3 meet, Coffman was third (75) behind first-place Brookhaven (89).

•Jerome received several solid efforts in the OCC-Cardinal meet, led by junior Rebecca Rings, who finished first (2:15.72) in the 800 ahead of Minori Minagawa (2:19.87).

Rings is seeking her first state meet appearance.

“It’s clicked a lot this year, more than it has ever,” Rings said.

“It’s been fun to race. It’s not easy, though. This is a good confidence builder.”

Amy Erdelsky was first in the 400 (58.92) for the girls team’s other win.

The Celtics finished seventh (56).

Last season at the district 1 meet, Jerome was ninth (25).

The boys team was eighth (44) in the league meet.

Alex Linard, Zach Frid, Graham Rossi and Graham Stecz were first in the 1,600 relay (3:29.28). Tyler Pica was second in the discus (135-2).

Last season in the district 1 meet, Jerome tied MarionFranklin for 13th (18) behind first-place Gahanna (120).

and Liberty Union were co-champions with 139 points.

“We had to put up with a lot, coming back from more than 20 points down, and Luke had to put up with a lot,” said Schoch, fighting back tears after an emotional 15 minutes to end the meet. “Thank goodness the (1,600 relay) came through and ran their best time ever. They knew what was on the line.”

It was a good thing the 1,600 relay realized what was on the line, because the meet officials seemed to have forgotten. The rule cited was similar to the one about wearing jewelry, which requires a warning before a disqualification.

If the official didn’t notice the wardrobe malfunction until late in the race then he probably should have ignored it. I doubt

Evans would have been disqualified for wearing a necklace.

The situation reminds me of a league wrestling meet I covered several years ago.

A heavyweight wrestler with a sub-.500 record was competing in a third-place match with his team a couple of points out of first place. He pinned his opponent, so the points from the match and the points for placing third earned his team the league title by onehalf point, but that was to change.

After the referee raised the wrestler’s arm as the victor, he unsnapped his headgear, tossed it above his head in jubilation and raced to hug his coach in a moment he was sure to remember forever.

It was a pivotal moment, but for another reason. During the embrace, the referee went to the scorer’s table and took one team point away for excessive celebration, giving the

wrestler’s team the runner-up trophy by onehalf point. The jubilation quickly turned to disappointment.

That decision stuck with me, as does this one. There is a time and a place for making calls, and these two instances probably were not the appropriate situations. But, as stated earlier, sports are filled with life lessons, and maybe this was an example of that. In this case, the fact is that life isn’t always fair.

In the end, the Grandview boys won their first league track and field championship since 1984, with the only consolation being that they had to be co-champions.

What do you do after such an occurrence?

You line up, shake hands with your co-champions and try to beat them next time, whether in the postseason or in next year’s league meet. Just like in any other point in life, you pick yourself up and get back to work.

Winner plays host to regional final May

Continued from page B1 thought that we clicked in the first half offensively and that our goalie stopped the bleeding when they got the momentum.

“I think (my team was) pretty ticked off (after losing to Brother Rice). We were up by one in the fourth quarter of that game, but we just didn’t shoot the ball well. I think we definitely learned some things from that.”

Coffman is the fourth seed for the Division I Central Region tournament and opens the postseason Saturday, May 21, at home against Westerville North or Westerville Central.

The winner plays May 25 in a regional semifinal, where topseeded Upper Arlington likely is looming. Coffman lost to the Golden Bears 11-6 on April 13.

The Shamrocks beat North 13-11 on May 4, but Forsythe said poor weather conditions significantly affected play that night.

Coffman, which beat Scioto 18-8 on May 2 in the other game between the district’s three schools, got three goals apiece from Ryan Borcherding and Alex Chin against Jerome.

Scott Fannin, Mark Guzik and Patrick Ruz all have been standouts defensively, according to Forsythe.

Council looks at two zoning districts

By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Dublin City Council is considering two new zoning districts that could bring development to the Central Ohio Innovation Center.

A plan for an “economic advancement” zone and a “tech flex” zone are up for council’s approval, possibly as soon as May 23.

The economic advancement zone went before Dublin City Council for a first reading last week.

Planner Carson Combs said the zoning would cover an area around the U.S. Route 33, Post Road and state Route 161 interchange.

“The plan will serve as a planning and marketing tool that will detail major development expectations for the area,” the staff report to council states. “The plan builds on previous work conducted through the community plan and, once adopted, will be implemented by updating the ex-

isting COIC district code and citysponsored area rezoning request.”

The uses for the economic advancement zone include “a multitiered approach to research and technology development: office research, research flex, research manufacturing-assembly and mixed-use tech,” the staff report states. “Two special areas are denoted: research support services

and mixed residential.”

While the plan outlines future development uses for the area, it also outlines future roads infrastructure, Combs said, including an extension of Shier Rings Road from where it ends at Darree Fields to Houchard Road. The route could add a way around Route 33, he said.

“I think this is really terrific,”

vice mayor Amy Salay said.

Despite support, Salay asked about the view residents in the northern portion of Ballentrae, which abuts the southern portion of the economic advancement zone, would have.

A small portion of mixed-residential is proposed, Combs said, and bike trails will be installed.

With the possible extension

of Shier Rings Road, a new entrance to Darree Fields also is planned.

Marilee Chinnici-Zuercher questioned the timing, saying the entrance to the park gets busy.

According to city manager Marsha Grigsby, the new intersection has been designed and the city is working on right-of-way acquisition for the project.

“It’s in the (capital improvement program),” she said.

The economic advancement zone will go before council for a second and final reading May 23.

Deputy city manager and economic development director Dana McDaniel said a new code for the zone would go before council next, followed by city-sponsored rezoning.

The technology flex zoning district was up for a final vote before Dublin City Council last week but hit a snag regarding the color of trim used on buildings.

The zoning district that would include the uses of office, research, laboratory and office flex

“provides greater design flexibility for architects and designers but requires a minimum level of architectural quality on all four building elevations,” the staff report states.

Council member Cathy Boring voiced concern about colors for the buildings. Earth-tone buildings with brighter-colored trim and accents would be permitted.

“We need to be more specific on this,” she said.

Salay suggested approving a palate of colors to be used in the district, but the idea met some resistance.

“I don’t think we want to eliminate corporate colors,” Chinnici-Zuercher said. “At the end of the day, this is an economic development tool.”

Council directed staff members to add language to the zone, allowing up to 10 percent of trim to be brighter in color.

The zoning-district issue was tabled until the May 23 meeting. jnoblit@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Dubin schools look at facility use

By JENNIFER NOBLIT

The courses are taught by staff

ThisWeek Community Newspapers members and community mem-

More than 800 people have been educated through Dublin City Schools’ community education program.

The program started in the fall as part of Superintendent David Axner’s plan to get community members into school facilities when students aren’t using the facilities.

District communications specialist Doug Baker told school board members last week that more than 800 people have taken community education classes that have ranged from baking and animation to Zumba and home improvement.

“Since May 1, 45 people have signed up for summer programs,” he said.

bers, Baker said, and the Dublin Police Department has even offered self-defense class.

“Community education has to do with bringing our entire community into our facilities,” Axner said of the self-sustaining program.

Courses aren’t the only way the district is trying to make use of its facilities, though. Annette Morud, the district’s director of business affairs, said the facilities also are open for rental.

“I think there is a common misperception among the community that the schools are only in use during the school day,” she told the board.

The schools are often used for See DUBLIN CITY, page C2

Dubin school district looks at facility use Continued from page C1 extracurricular activities, club meetings, musical and academic contests and through rentals.

In fact, the district began looking into the costs and conditions that other school districts use for rentals and found that other districts use an online automated system to rent buildings.

The district is working with the company that created its website on an automated building rental system, Morud said. The system will be tested this month and should go online for use by July.

In other board news, a resolution adding state-required financial literacy, college and career readiness to curricula in grades 7 and 8 was approved.

Eydie Schilling, executive director of learning and teaching, said a group of seventh- and eighth-grade teachers met to discuss ways to work the new requirements into current curricula.

Sells Middle School teacher Kathy Chitwood told board members some topics, such as taxes, could be tied in to historical

events that already are in the curriculum.

“Kids can learn that the Civil War wasn’t just about slavery, but there were a lot economics involved, as well,” she said.

In seventh grade, Chitwood said, students will focus on working and earning, credit, goods and services.

In eighth grade, students will learn about banking basics, bills and taxes.

“Banking basics would work with (our curriculum about) Alexander Hamilton’s actions in creating a national bank,” Chitwood said. “The Revolutionary War could tie in to taxes and paying bills.”

Eighth-graders also will get an opportunity to use a computer program that would show them how adults manage their finances, giving students a salary, bills and other costs to cover.

“It teaches kids about budgeting because a lot of our kids are the biggest consumers we have today,” Chitwood said.

Axner applauded the work of the middle school teachers to add such requirements into the classroom.

“I want to compliment you on weaving this into our curriculum instead of adding a new course,” he said. jnoblit@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Fortune Chinese Restaurant offers lengthy menu “Hot Pepper Frog, Homestyle Made Frog, or Frog Stir-Fried with Pickle Chili?” asked my sister, flashing an oftpracticed devilish grin.

We were plotting our order from the provocative, lengthy and new menu in Fortune Chinese Restaurant. Recently implemented by the place’s new owners, that voluminous food list includes many intriguing looking dishes which appear to substantiate the menu’s claim of “The Best Selection of Authentic Szechuan Style Food.”

As we expressed hope that Fortune’s execution of Szechuan dishes would match its self-heralded “selection,” we also commented on how drastically the once-Cantonese-centric cuisine there had changed.

Too bad we couldn’t say the same about Fortune’s drab decor. Because although Fortune has received a muchneeded housecleaning, sprucing up and coat of paint (albeit in a pale, wan yellow), it still has a dingy dropped ceiling, industrial carpet, goofy 3D-type

MENU

by G.A. Benton “art” and dull brown, occasionally ripped Naugahyde booths.

So how was the food? In general, I found it to be salty, saucy, aggressive and oily. Since that also describes me, we got along famously. In fact, slurping up Fortune’s inexpensive but explosively flavored grub was so much fun I didn’t much mind that the Tsingtao beer bottle on my table was the place’s best claim to ambience.

As for ordering strategies, except for the chef’s specials, we took the menu’s implicit suggestion and stuck with any section mentioning Szechuan in its header (there are four).

While there was some sameness to the seasoning among these brazen entrees — expect generous glugs of chili oil, fresh jalapeno, garlic and ginger

taste: Fish with Rice Crust ($14): This massive (serves two or three) and mighty flavor onslaught was served with a little razzle-dazzle and is highly recommended. Thin and crispy rice cakes gave off an audible sizzle on the plate (think “snap crackle pop”) when doused with an enormous bowl of impressively tender battered whitefish planks and a cornucopia of veggies (starring Chinese broccoli) swimming in a sea of wild and thick, salty, sweet and spicy sauce.

Ma Po Bean Curd ($9): Silken tofu cubes swamped in chili oil and spiked with fermented black beans were liberally sprinkled with lip-tingling ground Szechuan peppercorns. Really fun and

Diced Chicken Stir Fried with Fortune Chinese Restaurant.

Pickle Turnip ($8): I enjoyed this bold, and an occasionally to-the-brink sweet- cheap and comparatively ungreasy dish ness — I wouldn’t say any two dishes so much that it’s become my new gowere completely identical. Here’s a to to-go Chinese dinner. Diced poultry

coated in red chili paste was further seasoned with garlic, jalapeno and lively chunks of semi-funky and pleasantly sour veggie pickles. A hot and tangy must.

Lamb with Chili Pepper and Cumin ($8): The delightfully tender meat was flavorful enough to stand up to its soy sauce, onion and jalapeno-fueled spicy and salty treatment. Pretty terrific.

Hot Pepper Frog ($11): A rare sauce-free Fortune preparation, this was battered and fried bundles of froggy, tossed with leafy celery tops, jalapeno, scallion and a volatile arsenal of firecracker-like fried red chili peppers. I liked it, but there were a lot of tiny, hidden bones in those battered bites.

Mixed Vegetable Stir Fry ($8): Like a pleasantly bitter sauteed salad of slivered carrots and green veggies dressed in soy sauce and cooking oil, this functions well as a palate-refreshing side to the rich, spicy and more complex flavors of many dishes here.

Revamped Westerville pizzeria now offers baked pies In perfect conditions, customers have only a short wait for a freshly baked pie at Runaway Pasta & Pizza in Westerville.

With his handy Hhc 2020 TurboChef oven, Peter Tanski can bake a pizza in 2.5 minutes. Put another way, that’s 150 seconds.

“This is the next-generation way to cook a pizza,” he said.

Certainly, longer lines mean a longer wait for patrons, but Tanski’s lovin’ his oven. It doesn’t require an expensive ventilation system and runs off of electricity. It uses a convection-and-im-

pingement process, meaning it simultaneously sucks in and pushes out air, while a catalytic converter cleans the exhaust. The conveyor unit is capable of cooking 60 pizzas in one hour.

Runaway takes over Tanksi’s former Mama Mimi’s franchise at 925 N. State St., just east of Meijer.

Runaway’s fresh-tossed dough uses flour that is free of bromate, a condi-

tioner that strengthens the dough and allows for higher rising. Tanski prefers the old-fashioned method.

He has three crusts: a regular style seasoned with oregano and garlic, plain wheat and a gluten-free product not made on premises. The reason being, he said, is the risk for cross-contamination.

Pizzas are 12 or 16 inches and crusts are either thin or medium-thick.

He has a full complement of designer pizza options, such as the barbecue pulled pork and spinach and artichoke dip, as well as a build-your-own section.

The big sellers right now are the deluxe and Margherita options.

He acknowledges prices are about $1 or $2 more than chain pizzas. The difference is in the ingredients, he said.

For example, Tanski also uses Stanislaus tomato products, which are made from fresh tomatoes, not concentrate. He mixes the seasonings in-house for his own distinctive flavor.

“It’s not something that’s going to be duplicated anywhere,” he said.

In addition, he uses 100 percent cheese, a mozzarella-provolone blend, and locally made Ezzo Sausage Co. pepperoni.

ficient method, as customers generally wait no longer than 10 minutes for their order. Still, purchasing another oven could be necessary once business improves, he said.

The menu also includes a slate of salads, baked pasta, take-and-bake casseroles, chicken wings and a few desserts, including fresh-baked cookies. Sandwiches could be offered in the future, he said.

“Doing things people are familiar with but in your own way is the way to succeed, I think,” he said.

Tanski is looking into adding some seating in the 1,453-square-foot space, which does not provide a dine-in experience.

Runaway is open lunch and dinner hours daily. For more information, call 614-523-3000.

The latest Ohio-made vodka has a Columbus connection.

Karl Schneider of Upper Arlington is among a group of investors behind Buckeye Vodka, which is produced in Dayton. The premium, small-batch vodka uses distilled water from a direct source — Crystal Water Co. — and is distilled 10 times for an unmistakably smooth, clean and pure flavor, spokeswoman Michele Mooney said. It is available at several local stores, including many local Giant Eagle and Kroger stores, High Street Beverage and Huffman’s Market.

Tics in children are quite common Tics are sudden, involuntary, repetitive movements (motor tics) or sounds (vocal tics). The most common motor tics are frequent eye blinking, nose twitching and head shaking. Common vocal tics include humming, grunting or saying actual words. Some of these tics are complex and include large parts of the body (kicking, stamping).

About 3 million to 6 million Americans experience tics regularly. Tics are more common in children, where one in four has a tic during the school years.

Tics are five times more common in boys than in girls. Nine out of 10 children who have tics, however, will experience significant improvements in the symptoms by they time they reach adulthood.

Tics are the most frequent symptom of Tourette syndrome, though it isn’t the only symptom. For a patient to be diagnosed as having TS, he or she has to have motor and vocal tics for at least one year. Impulsivity, attention deficit disorder, at-

tention deficit hyperactivity disorder and o b s e s s ive compulsive behaviors ( r e p e t i t ive thoughts and PEDRO movements) WEISLEDER are commonly seen in patients with TS. Cursing, which is the most publicized symptom of TS, is exceedingly rare.

Stress sometimes can make tics more severe, frequent or longer in duration. Many children with tics report the urge to perform said tic, though some can suppress this for a short time.

As tension builds, though, it eventually has to be released as a tic. If a child is concentrating on controlling a tic, it might be difficult to focus on other tasks, such as schoolwork. Because tics are outside a child’s control, children should not be disciplined for exhibiting them.

In most patients, the symptoms of TS are mild and not nec-

essarily an indication of a more serious disorder. For that reason, physicians at Nationwide Children’s Hospital tend to avoid prescribing medications for the condition. Moderate to severe cases of TS can be treated with psychological therapy (habit-reversal therapy) or one of a series of prescription medications. It is important to know, however, that there is no single medication that is helpful to all individuals with tics or TS. For more information on tics and TS, as they relate to children, parents should consult their primary-care physician. Nationwide Children’s Hospital offers treatment for severe cases, and more information is available from the Tourette Syndrome Association of America. Visit www.tsa-usa.org.

Dr. Pedro Weisleder is associate professor and director of the child-neurology residency program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital — The Ohio State University College of Medicine.
