NEW RICHMOND — A leadmusket ball, early 19th centuryceramics, a button from a CivilWar uniform and pennies fromthe 1830s are just a few of thefinds Northern Kentucky Uni-versity students recently un-earthed at the site of the for-mer Parker Academy.

For three weeks in May,NKU students from severaldisciplines, including history,geography and anthropology,excavated the 7.5-acre site justoutside of New Richmond inClermont County.

In 1839, Daniel Parker andhis wife, Priscilla, founded theClermont Academy near theOhio River. The college prepa-

ratory academy that’s alsoknown as the Parker Academyis thought to be the first schoolin the U.S. where young menand women of all races, reli-gions and genders were edu-cated in the same classrooms.

“That (NKU) class is over,but we plan to dig at the site forthe next three years,” said Bri-an Hackett, director of NKU’smasters in public history pro-gram that prepares studentsfor jobs in museums and histor-ic sites and makes history ac-cessible to the public. “It’s go-ing to continue to be a publichistory and geography pro-ject.”

The National UndergroundRailroad Freedom Center ispartnering with NKU on theParker Academy project. With-in two years, Hackett said heexpects artifacts that havebeen found at the site will bepart of a special exhibit at thefreedom center.

Hackett said those involved

in the project eventually wantto have an outdoor museumand exercise trail at the site.

“We’d like to create a histor-ic district, or even a nationalheritage area,” Hackett said.“This is something that’s reallyimportant to the area, and itreally shaped the nation.”

Hackett said the buttonfrom the Civil War uniformmay have been there because28 African-Americans who at-tended Parker Academyserved in the Union Army.

“It’s possible that they wentback to the school to do somerecruiting,” he said.

The 1830 era Lady Libertypennies were as large as pre-sent day quarters and had holesin them, possibly for use asgood luck charms, Hackettsaid.

Other finds included a pieceof a writing slate, remnants ofceramics popular between1790 and 1830, pieces of ironcooking pots and 19th century

toys, including a clay marbleand bone or ivory game pieces.

Graduate students are stilltrying to locate the privies.

Although the Parker Acad-emy played a key role in the re-gion’s Civil War era history,communities throughoutsouthwestern Ohio and North-ern Kentucky are home tomany other historic sites, in-cluding Underground Railroadstops for runaway slaves, saidNew Richmond AdministratorGreg Roberts, former presi-dent of Historic New Rich-mond.

GOSHEN TOWNSHIP —Old State Route 28, whichhas seen traffic increaseafter the recent closure ofstate Route 28 here for abridge replacement,should get some muchneeded improvementsthis summer.

Barrett Paving Materi-als Inc. has a contract toresurface a number ofcounty roads starting July6, including a .67 mile sec-tion of Old State Route 28.Employees of the Cler-mont County engineer’soffice have said that worklikely will start after thebridge project on stateRoute 28 ends.

In the meantime, thecounty may authorizesome temporary repairs,or milling and patching, toOld State Route 28 be-cause of the roughness,said Ken “Woody” Wood-mansee, Clermont Countyroad superintendent.

Even though old StateRoute 28 isn’t an officialdetour for the state Route

28 road work in GoshenTownship, many local res-idents have been using itas an alternate route,township officials and po-lice say.

On June 1, the Ohio De-partment of Transporta-tion closed state Route 28just west of state Route132 in Goshen Township toreplace a bridge. That clo-sure is expected to lastabout 75 days.

“Have you driven (oldState Route 28)?” GoshenTownship Trustee LoisPappas-Swift asked offi-cials from the Ohio De-partment of Transporta-tion during a June 16meeting for an update onthe bridge project. “Yourback teeth about comeout.”

Old State Route 28 isnot a state road, nor is it aposted detour for the stateRoute 28 project, said Ja-son Haus, Clermont Coun-ty resident engineer forODOT.

“There’s nothing wecan say or do about old28,” Haus said. “If peopledecide to go that way,

that’s the way they’re do-ing to go.”

Lt. Wayne Price of OhioHighway Patrol agreedthat Old State Route 28has seen more trafficsince the Ohio 28 bridgeclosure.

“I’ll say this about old28,” Price said. “We’reputting a lot more cars onold 28, but I’ll take a rattleon the dash to keep thespeeds down and keeppeople from doing some-thing stupid.”

On a related matter,ODOT officials agreed tolook into getting a tempor-ary signal at the intersec-tion of short 48 and stateRoute 28. The westbounddetour for the state Route28 project is sending traf-fic to state Route 132, thenshort state Route 48 to getback to state Route 28.

Goshen Township Po-lice Chief Rick Combssaid traffic on short 48 hasbeen stacking seven oreight cars deep in the af-ternoon since the stateRoute 28 closure, and he’sworried that a vehicle willget T-boned as a driver

tries to turn left onto stateRoute 28 during rushhour.

ODOT officials alsoagreed to look into town-ship officials’ concernsabout the crumblingshoulder on state Route132 that’s created a 7 to 10foot deep ditch in spots,and to consider rumblestrips on the bridge be-cause of pedestrian andbike traffic. Because of

traffic volume, Haus saidit isn’t feasible to do a sep-arate truck detour onstate Route 131, as hadpreviously been suggest-ed.

Largely because of thetime it takes to cure con-crete, Haus said thereisn’t much the contractorcan do to speed up thestate Route 28 bridge pro-ject that’s causing manyof Goshen’s traffic head-

aches . However, he saidhe hopes to get the stateroute reopened beforeGoshen students headback to school. Teacher inservice is Aug. 13, and stu-dents’ first day is Aug. 14.

“It’s going to be close,but I would say at thispoint there shouldn’t bean issue with that, barringwe don’t lose a bunch ofdays for something or oth-er,” Haus said.

Coughing up money forconcerts at the UnionTownship Amphitheaterrecently struck a discor-dant note with some town-ship trustees.

Now, businesses havestepped up to ensure thehills of the ClermontCounty community willcontinue to be alive withthe sound of music – atleast for one night.

The Clermont Philhar-monic Orchestra will per-form from 6 p.m. to 10p.m. Saturday, Aug. 15, atthe amphitheater at 4350Aicholtz Road becausethe orchestra lined up$2,500 in donations fromarea businesses to helppay for the concert.

Trustees agreed at a re-

cent Union TownshipBoard of Trustees meet-ing to match the donation

with town-ship funds.

“Weasked forsome helpfrom thecorporatecommuni-ty so thecost bur-den did not

rest solely on our resi-dents,” board ChairmanJohn McGraw said.

In January, McGrawand board Vice ChairmanLloyd Acres balked at ap-proving $19,500 for abouta dozen amphitheaterconcerts that they said at-tract just 250 to 400 peo-ple each.

Union Township offi-cials have been riding

herd on what they believecan be cut from the bud-get – no matter how rela-tively small – to help off-set the loss of millions ofdollars in state appropria-tions.

Trustee Matt Beameragreed that the concertsare a perk, but said theyare a relatively inexpen-sive perk that people likeand that promote UnionTownship.

The township’s tight-fisted fiscal oversightwas responsible in partfor the $10 million gener-al-fund balance it wasable to accrue by the endof 2014.

At the recent UnionTownship Board of Trust-ees meeting it once againwas: another meeting, an-other list of (albeit rela-tively modest) economic-

development successes totout.

» Trustees agreed to azone change to allow Buf-falo Wings & Rings to teardown the former SmokeyBones Bar and Fire Grillat 509 Ohio Pike for a newBuffalo Wings restaurant.

» Freddy’s Frozen Cus-tard and Steakburgersand Taco Bell are buildingnew restaurants at thecorner of Ohio Pike andWaterford Parkway.

» Laszlo’s Iron SkilletRestaurant, which movedtemporarily into a New-town shopping strip at7397 Main St. after therestaurant’s former build-ing on Valley Avenue inthat village burned in2013, plans to reopen inmid-August at 1020 OhioPike in Union Township.

JUNE 25, 2015 • BETHEL JOURNAL • 5ANEWS

What is it aboutvintage recipesthat intriguesme so? I guessit’s about the

history, a time when recipesharing was done by passingwritten or typed recipes byhand, sometimes when folks

gathered togeth-er for a morningcoffee break atsomeone’s home.

I was giftedwith such a won-derful lot ofrecipes fromDonna Wright, aClermont Coun-ty reader whowanted me tohave her Mom’s

and Grandma’s recipes. In-cluded with vintage cookbookswas a wooden box with thehandwritten and typed recipes,often with notes on the recipesby the cook. When I lookedthrough the box, I was sur-prised at the number of cakes,both for breakfast, brunch anddessert. We like a simple cin-namon coffee cake, one thatcan be made with the littleones and mixed by hand.

The recipe I’m sharing to-day from that wooden box isjust such a recipe. It’s calledquick coffee cake but I gave itan additional name. This coffeecake is really easy to make andnot too sweet or gooey. Perfectwith an morning cup of tea!

Quick coffee cake akaNot a fancy coffee cake

How much is a heapingtablespoon? The butter shouldmound up on the spoon. Iadapted the recipe only slight-ly. I made this by hand with awhisk.

1 heaping tablespoon butter1/2 cup sugar

1 egg1/2 cup milk1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla1-1/2 cups all purpose flour2 teaspoons baking powder1/2 teaspoon saltPreheat oven to 325. Melt butter. Beat egg and

sugar together. Beat in butter.Add milk and vanilla and beathard. Add dry ingredients,which you have mixed togeth-er. (I just whisked them togeth-er). Blend but don’t over beat.Pour into greased and flouredpan. (I used spray).

Then mix together:3 tablespoons sugar1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamonThe recipe said to sprinkle

this on top which I did. Nexttime I’ll swirl it into the batterso that if I would choose toglaze it, the glaze won’t pull thetopping up.

Bake 30 minutes or so justuntil toothpick inserted incenter comes out clean. Don’tover bake or cake will be dry.

Glaze (opt)I just made a confectioners

sugar glaze with a cup of con-fectioners sugar and enoughwater to make a glaze. Startwith 3 tablespoons water.

Refrigerator or freezerpickles

No, I didn’t make a mistakein the title. These pickles do goin the freezer and yes, they areamazingly crisp after thawing.My sister, Sonia, loves hergarden and each year makesthese awesome pickles. ForJudy N., who wanted the recipeand also wanted to know if shecould add some fresh dill sinceher dill will be ready when herpickling cucumbers are. Theanswer is yes. I think it wouldgive the pickles another ele-ment of flavor and, after all,

dill is one of the ingredients inpickling spice.

4 cups thinly sliced cucum-bers, unpeeled

1 medium onion, sliced thin2 tablespoons saltUp to 1-1/2 cups sugar - I use

less but just go to taste1/2 cup vinegar1-1/2 teaspoons pickling

spice1 red bell pepper, diced (opt)1 clove garlic, smashed (opt)Arrange cucumbers and

onions in large bowl. Sprinklewith salt and mix. Pour enoughwater over to just cover them.Stir again. Soak at room tem-perature for 2 hours. Drain,but don’t rinse. Meanwhile,mix sugar, vinegar and pick-ling spice in small saucepan.Bring to a simmer and cookuntil sugar dissolves. Let coolwhile pickles are soaking.After pickles have beendrained, add bell pepper, thenpour pickling brine over them.

Mix. Put into containers. Letmarinate overnight in refriger-ator before eating. Keeps atleast three weeks in frig, or upto six months in freezer.

A publication of

June 18 questionWhat is your favorite sum-

mer vacation story (somethingthat you personally experi-enced)?

“One of my favorite sum-mer vacations was spentworking to help poor peopleback in the hollers of Appala-chia working very hard andsweating my behind off with agroup of youth and adultsfrom our church. It was dusty,dirty, hot, sticky, buggy, spi-dery, yucky and hard work butit was one of the more reward-ing times of my life seeing abunch of kids (including a cou-ple of girly girls) never com-plain doing it, and more impor-tantly seeing the sheer grati-tude from the home ownersfor what we had done for them.It was life lifting.”

M.J.F.

“Many years ago my em-ployer needed me to assist a

client in Florida. As I could flyor drive, I drove and took myfamily. Needless to say thisprovided a ‘free’ vacation forus. As luck would have it I wasnot that busy working mostdays and could also enjoy thestay. Vacations are great, butfree vacations are even better.Go Figure!”

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONIf you could show visitors toCincinnati for the All StarGame one location that bestrepresents the area, whatwould it be and why?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

In the summer of 1988, myhusband, Hank Hannig, began awonderful tradition that endedJune 6, 2015.

That day in 1988, we (plus ofcourse his parents) took ourfirst grandson for his first hair-cut to my husband’s barber, Ter-ry Owens, who was at CherryGrove Barbers at the time. Myhusband insisted on paying forhis haircut and thus, the tradi-tion was born.

Not only did my husband de-cide to pay for his first haircut,he decided to pay for all his hair-cuts until he turned 18 and grad-uated from high school. As theyears went on, we were blessedwith four more grandsons andthey too were included in thiswonderful bonding experience.Two traveled from the WestChester Township area and twotraveled from the Dayton area.We also have two granddaugh-ters who have had their hair cutby Terry on occasion.

This first haircut was, ofcourse, videotaped, as were allsubsequent first haircuts. Atone point in time, we made aDVD for Terry of all the firsthaircuts. Another time we gavehim a picture collage of eachone getting their first haircut.

Terry now owns Visions HairDesign in Withamsville and my

husband willcontinue to goto him. Terrymade so manywonderfulmemories forour grandsons.So I emailedthe followingmessage to allfive grandsons:

“Dear Zak,Joe, Wes, Dan-

iel and Will,“Now that Will is almost out

of high school, the era of Grand-pa taking you boys up to Terry’sfor haircuts is over. I would liketo do something special for Ter-ry (and you guys) and loosely,here is what I had in mind.

“1. I would like it to be a sur-prise

“2. I would like each of you toget your hair cut one more timeby Terry (or, just come by to jointhe fun – the choice is yours).

“3. I would like to get him acake that says ‘Thanks Terry.’

“4. I would like the parents inattendance too if they wouldlike to be there.

They all responded very en-thusiastically. So with the helpof Liz, who works at Visions, wescheduled fake-name appoint-ments starting at 2 p.m., whichwould be after his lunch time

June 6. Everyone gathered atour home and we drove to Vi-sions around 1:45 p.m. Terrywas in the back room so hedidn’t see us come in.

Once our cameras wereready and the cake set up, one ofthe girls went back to get Terry.He was so appreciative that all

the boys (actually men now)were there. The cake was cutand Terry started the haircuts.The ladies of the family left sothe boys could have their bond-ing experience one more time.In addition, Sonya, who stillworks at Collage where Terryhad worked many years, came

over to say hi to the boys.Terry will always be part of

their childhoods. Thanks formaking such wonderful memo-ries for our family, Terry!

Howdy folks, The gardeningseason is here big time!

The Grants Greenhouse onstate Route 131 have vine rip-ened tomatoes and green ones.Tony told me they are pickinglots of tomatoes and folks arebuying green ones to fry. Friedgreen tomatoes are good!

The Grants planted 100 to-mato plants a few months agoand they are sure producing.There is nothing like a ripe‘mater pulled off the vine. Mydaughter Debby will pull thefirst ripe tomato here in mytomato patch. I set them outApril 1. By using the walls ofwater you can set them out byApril. The walls of water willprotect them when it gets to 20degrees we have seen this.Next year get a three-pack ofwalls of water and have thefirst ripe mater in your neigh-borhood, it works.

In theraised bedwhere I raisedpotatoes lastyear, I settomatoes out.In cleaning theweeds out Isaw a potatoplant comingup. It camefrom a potato I

missed when I dug them lastfall. My friend Harry that diedwhen he was 101 years old toldme he planted some of his pota-toes in November and dugthem early in the year. Theywill winter over in the coldground. If you don’t think thepotatoes will grow leavingthem in the ground and it fro-zen. Just look where you grewyour potatoes and see the onesyou missed.

Since I had my hernia opera-

tion, I could not do any heavywork. Now that the doctorsreleased me, I have cleanedseven tractor tires and fiveraised beds. I have two more toclean as well as the asparagusbeds. One is 75 feet long, theother is 40 feet long. My familyand friends will have aspara-gus to eat.

I started picking black rasp-berries yesterday. I got a pint.That is good for the first pick-ing. I like the black raspber-ries, they are so good. RuthAnn would make a pie fromthese berries. That gal couldcook and bake real good. Theblackberry cake and lots ofother things she baked or thegreen fried maters she fixedwere great.

I was talking to Mike at theAfton bait shop this morning.He said his grandma, bless herheart, just recently celebrated

95 years. That is great. Mikespoils her and that is good. Hesaid he went and bought hersupper. She said you are aboutthe only one that called me andsaid happy birthday. Mike hada surprise for her. About 40people came to help her cele-brate her special day. HappyBirthday Grandma from theOle Fisherman and family. Godbless you!

She likes a certain kind ofcake so Mike went to the Amishstore in Adams County and gotthis cake. Now Grandma didn’tseem like she wanted to share,but Mike said we can go and getmore, so she said OK. If youhave your parents or grandpar-ents cherish them. One daythey will not be with you. I havemy children and grandchil-dren. Do as much as you canwith them and love them.

Now on something that is not

as important as Grandma is.The crappie fishing tourna-ment, the last five are as fol-lows: June 28, July 26, Aug. 16,Aug. 30, and the last one is Sept.27. There is something new forthis year. If you fish in four ofthe last five fishing tourna-ments you can get in the finalcontest. The champion fish-offis Oct. 3 and 4. This is for thecrappie tournaments held allsummer. Mike said they arecatching crappie that still haveeggs in them. Good fishing toall!

Start your week by going tothe house of worship of yourchoice and praising the goodLord.

God bless all ...More later

plan to be inyour homelong-term,you might notwant to makedrasticchanges. If,on the otherhand, youplan to stayfor life, youshould consid-

er what life changes youmight experience.

Perhaps the most impor-tant step in deciding to moveor modify is to evaluate cur-rent and future needs of yourfamily. A family with toddlershas dramatically differentneeds from a family withcollege students, or with live-in grandparents. At WholeHome Modifications, we oftenrecommend adding an in-law

suite on the first floor if youplan to stay in your homelong-term. It could be used asa study or rec room until youneed it.

Last, but certainly notleast, consider the financials.Chances are you’ll pay morefor a new home than you didfor your current home.

Deciding to move or mod-ify your home is a big deci-sion, but ensuring your homecan grow and change with youis important for the care andcomfort of your family todayand for years to come. Weencourage you to evaluateyour family’s needs and findthe best solution for you andyour loved ones.

WESTERN HILLS — This sum-mer, the Cincinnati Steam arecelebrating 10 years of amateursummer college baseball atMax McLeary Field on Fergu-son Avenue.

To celebrate, the Steam willdo as they’ve always done: lace‘em up and play.

This season, they’ll do thatunder first-time manager PatHyde, a former catcher atNorthern Kentucky Universityoriginally from Chicago. Hydewas a Steam assistant prior toearning the head gig.

Hyde’s a common commodi-ty for the Steam, who employmany aspiring for careers inbaseball.

“I want to put them in thebest position for them to be suc-cessful. I want these guys tocome in for the summer and bythe time they leave I want themto go back to their school betterthan when they left,” Hyde said.“I want them to grow and ma-ture as people and also as base-ball players.”

The Steam compete in theGreat Lakes Summer Colle-giate League, one of the pre-mier summer baseball leaguesin the country (arguably secondonly to Cape Cod), a wooden batleague comprised of players

with remaining college eligibil-ity. Roughly 17 locals play on theSteam this year, as well as guysfrom Michigan, Indiana, Illi-nois, Kentucky and South Caro-lina.

After 11 games, the Steamare off to a 4-6-1 start. At theplate, the Steam have been ledby Jake Richmond (Universityof Cincinnati), who’s hitting.444, and Trey Ganns (NorthernKentucky), who’s hitting .351with eight RBI. Max Foley (Ev-ansville) has been hot with a .341average, 14 hits and eight RBI.

On the mound, Hunter Dunn(Eastern Kentucky) has a 4.23ERA and a team-high 17 inningswith 23 strikeouts. Nick Beard(Northern Kentucky) has a 3.60ERA and nine strikeouts in 10 in-nings.

“We have a very talentedteam. We’re very young,” saidHyde. “Getting guys into theright spot in the right situation.You learn how to pick theirbrain … you want to see whattheir thought process is andtheir baseball instinct.”

According to Brady Laber,Steam director of baseball oper-ations, the Steam has had 32players drafted by MajorLeague teams. Most notably,Adam Eaton with the ChicagoWhite Sox and Pittsburgh Pi-rates All-Star third basemanJosh Harrison.

“What I like doing is seeingguys come in day one whetherit’s summer ball or college, justseeing them develop into betterplayers and people,” Hyde said.“They may struggle one day,but the best thing about base-ball is you’re gonna get to playthe next day. It’s nice seeingguys grow from mistakes andget better.”

Coming up at Max McLearyField, the Steam host GrandLake Friday, June 26, on ALSnight and on Thursday, July 2,the Hamilton Joe’s come to townon fireworks night.

BETHEL — During a monthwhen many are loading up theirSUVs or Airstreams for a Gris-wold family vacation, the Be-thel-Tate girls basketball teamrecently visited scenic Cedar-ville.

The university not far fromXenia hosts girls summer bas-ketball events during the al-lowable coaching periods inJune. Lady Tigers head coachDave Fallis, along with juniorhigh coaches Steve Leonard andChris Wheeler, took the Bethel-Tate high school and middleschool squads.

“This is the first time we’vetaken both teams there,” Fallissaid. “There’s 60 middle schooland high school teams and over500 players. It’s phenomenal.”

Though the Lady Tigers var-sity team lost Brooke Jenikeand Allison Poe to graduation,they return most of their roster.From last year’s starters, JuliaJenike, Alyssa Demaris, Mor-gan Reinhart, Haylee Fosterand Allison Parks made the trip.The rest of the varsity group in-cluded a sophomore and someincoming freshmen.

Soon-to-be junior HayleyTaylor is still recovering froman ACL injury.

“She’s still rehabbing theknee,” Fallis said. “I think if shestays on track she’s back by Oc-tober or November.”

For Julia Jenike, this will beher first and only varsity seasonplaying without her older sister,Brooke. Like Brooke, she has at-tracted some college interestand recently made a verbalcommitment to Florida AtlanticUniversity in Boca Raton.

Julia Jenike led the team inpoints (17.5), rebounds (6.6), as-sists (2.4), steals (2.2) and freethrow percentage (85 percent).Both Jenikes reached the 1,000-career point club last season.

Taking the girls north has

provided Fallis with a measur-ing stick for the upcoming fall.

“There was a lot of Division Ischools there,” Fallis said. “Itwas a good mix of competition.We didn’t go there to go unde-feated or win any tournament.We just want to compete at ourhighest level. Each team playednine games total and both teamswere 7-2 and made it to the fi-nals of the ‘crunch time’ tourna-ment.”

Many coaches inquired onthe location of Bethel-Tatewhile there. Fallis hopes withcontinued success that manywill know the program east ofCincinnati near the ClermontCounty/Brown County line.

Last year’s team went 19-6and had tournament winsagainst Cincinnati Hills Chris-tian Academy and Waynesville.

UC Clermont Collegebroke the Guinness Bookof Records for the high-est voltage potato bat-tery.

More than 100 stu-dents, faculty and staffalong with students fromSandy Ruschell’s Read-ing High School class,came out to help set anew potato battery worldrecord of 1,380 volts.

“Every year in myphysics class, I set up abattery using copper

wire, zinc nails and afruit. I usually use lem-ons and light up a smallLED. However, lemonsare a bit pricey, so I de-cided last year to trypotatoes since they arecheaper,” associate pro-fessor of physics NickAbel said.

“When I was investi-gating online what I canpower with a potato bat-tery, I found that there isa Guinness World Recordfor most voltage from apotato battery (1,224volts). I immediatelytalked to Cliff Larrabee,professor of chemistry,

and told him about therecord and we boththought this was some-thing we could break. Iusually like to joke that Iwill never get into Guin-ness Book for being fast,strong or rich, but build-ing a battery...I can dothat,” he said.

“With the generousdonation from Kroger of2000 potatoes, along withLarrabee finding the bestcombination of metals touse (magnesium ribbonwith silver-coated wire),we put it all together onthe Monday, May 4 afterfinal exams,” Abel said.

The lower level of theClermont County Com-mon Pleas Courthouse inthe Village of Batavia hasbeen transformed to anoffice for the Adult Pro-bation staff.

The renovation, whichadded eight offices, wastwo years in the making,according to a pressrelease. Probation offi-cers each have their ownoffice to meet with theirclients. The quartersfeature many windowsthat offer natural light,and also include a wait-ing room, conferenceroom and kitchenette.

The 22 probation offi-cers were frequentlydoubling and tripling upin their office space on

the first floor of thecourthouse, according toAdult Probation directorJulie Frey. Before that,they often worked out ofsatellite offices that of-fered little security.

According to the pressrelease, the $400,000project, which was ap-proved by ClermontCounty Commissionersin the fall of 2014, wasdone in two phases: Un-occupied space in part ofthe lower level was reno-vated and now housesrecords from the Com-mon Pleas Court, Clerkof Courts and Law Li-brary. The second phaseinvolved building thenew offices for AdultProbation.

The moment JackSteiger was born he be-gan having seizures.

Medication usuallycontrols seizures even inbabies but after twomonths of trying differ-ent options, none reallyworked.

Jack, whose familylives in Mount Carmel,went home from Cincin-nati Children’s Hospitaland after six months hewas still suffering fromseizures at about a rateof 100 per day. The onlytime Jack was not suf-fering from continualseizures was when heslept.

Fast-forward to foursurgeries later, Jack hadhis entire right side ofhis brain removed to helpcontrol his seizures andtwo involuntary move-ment disorders. Successwas achieved, but theSteiger family will al-ways have hurdles whenit comes to Jack’s dailycare.

One of the hurdles forJack is being bathed on adaily basis. Currently,Jack is being carried tothe second floor of theSteiger home.

Jack’s parents didsome investigating andfound a bathtub for aspecial needs child thatwould help with Jack’sdaily bathing routine.

A grant from the Au-brey Rose Foundationwill allow Jack to bebathed on the first floorin the specially designedbathtub. The foundation’s$1 millionth was a part oftheir grant.

Jack’s mom Heather,learned about the AubreyRose Foundation becausea friend’s daughter wasparticipating in the foun-dation’s American GirlDoll Fashion Show.

“I went online andread about Aubrey andreached out to the Au-brey Rose Foundation tosee if they would be will-ing to help with a bathtubthat is for a special needschild, “ Heather said.“When I look at that bath-tub I won’t see the moneythey gave. I am going to

see the fact that peoplegave to help a childwhose life is not alwaysgoing to be easy. He doesnot have many joys butone of them is being inthe water.”

More than 500 localgirls recently modeledhistorical and contempo-rary fashions to cele-brate what it means to bean American Girl of yes-terday and today whileraising money for criti-cally ill children in thelocal community in the12th annual AmericanGirl Fashion Show, bene-fiting the foundation.

Girls between theages of 4-13 of all ethnicbackgrounds and sizesmodeled the historicaland contemporary Amer-ican Girl Doll fashions atthe American Girl Fash-ion Show at Music Hall indowntown Cincinnati.Magical lights, music andbeautiful flowers filledthe room as the girlsmade their way down therunway in their Amer-ican Girl Fashion outfits.

Speed painter MarkThesken dazzled thecrowd as he took onlyfive minutes to create achalk rendering of“Young Anna” from themovie “Frozen.”

“Painting Young Annaand then having her upon stage to help auctionthe rendering reallymeant a lot to me. It’s noteveryday that the artistand their subject gets toshare a stage,” Theskensaid.

Local celebrity LivvyStubenrauch, betterknown as the voice of“Young Anna,” who livesin Cincinnati, was a mod-el in a couple of theshows.

Aubrey Rose Hol-lenkamp died suddenlyand unexpectedly twodays shy of her thirdbirthday.
