UNION TWP. —Officials in Union Townshipand other public agencies are involved in aseries of moves that will enrich the town-ship’s coffers by more than $8 million whilehelping Jungle Jim’s International Marketfinance an expansion at its Eastgate location.

Here’s how it is unfolding, according toAndy Kuchta, director of Cler-mont County Community andEconomic Development.

» The Clermont CountyPort Authority agreed in Sep-tember to essentially adoptJungle Jim’s Eastgate expan-sion plans as an economic-development project.

» Earlier this month, theport authority voted to issue

up to $23.5 million in bonds to help JungleJim’s temporarily buy and make improve-ments to the nearly 41-acre site where “TheShoppes at Jungle Jim’s Eastgate” mall at4450 Eastgate South Drive is located.

The property is owned by the UnionTownship Community Improvement Corpo-ration, the economic-development arm ofthe township.

Jungle Jim’s, through its affiliate, theNoble Family Eastgate Co., has been leasingthe property from the community improve-ment corporation.

»Noble Family Eastgate now is exercis-ing its previously negotiated right to buy theproperty for $8.5 million.

» The Clermont County Port Authoritywill purchase the property from the NobleFamily Eastgate with bond proceeds.

“As of today, the bonds have not yet beenissued, but they are currently being market-ed by the port authority’s underwriter,”Kuchta said.

The port authority will also allow NobleFamily Eastgate to use proceeds from thesale of the bonds to satisfy outstanding obli-gations currently secured by the propertyand to make improvements there, includingthe construction of more retail space.

Bond proceeds will not be used to acquiremore property.

» The Union Township Board of Trusteesin July had created a “Special ImprovementDistrict” comprised of Jungle Jim’s site inEastgate.

»Nov. 14, Union Township agreed to, for amaximum of 20 years, annually bill propertyowners in Jungle Jim’s special improvementdistrict a special assessment to pay off the

bonds the ClermontCounty Port Authorityissued.

The district was cre-ated at the request of theUnion Township Commu-nity Improvement Corpo-ration, the property own-er, with the blessing ofJungle Jim’s.

“The special assess-ments are in addition to,not in lieu of, propertytaxes,” Kuchta said.

“The normal real es-tate property taxes willstill continue to be paid.

“The purpose of thespecial improvementdistrict is to impose aspecial assessment on

the property, at the re-quest of the propertyowner, to generate addi-tional revenue to pay forpublic services,” Kuchtasaid.

“The additional pay-ments to the (specialimprovement district)will be for purposes ofmaking bond payments.”

» The port authorityeventually will sell theproperty back to theUnion Township Commu-nity Improvement Corpo-ration for $1 and thecommunity improvementcorporation will onceagain become JungleJim’s landlord in East-gate.

So why this series ofsales only to have theproperty return to theownership of the Com-

munity ImprovementCorporation?

“Each of the agenciesinvolved in this trans-action have special skillsets that they are bring-ing to the table,” Kuchtasaid.

“The port authority’srole as a conduit issuer isobviously importantbecause the bond marketis very familiar with portauthority-issued bondson projects such as thisone.

“The Union TownshipCommunity Improve-ment Corporation has anintimate understandingof Jungle Jim’s and theproperty itself, the Com-munity ImprovementCorporation has alreadyserved as Noble FamilyEastgate’s landlord for

the past few years andthe Community Improve-ment Corporation hasagreed to continue tocommit its resources toadminister the new leaseto Noble Family East-gate,” Kuchta said.

“The lease payments,consisting basically ofthe special assessments,will help service the bonddebt.

“In consideration ofthat commitment and tocoordinate efficient useof local economic devel-opment resources, theport authority will con-vey the property to theCommunity Improve-ment Corporation,”Kuchta said.

» Annual debt servicepayments are scheduledto begin Dec. 1, 2014, and

are currently estimatedto be nearly $1.9 million.

“The final sale priceand interest rate of thebonds will likely result ina slight adjustment tothat amount,” Kuchtasaid.

What are Jungle Jim’splans for the Eastgatelocation?

“Jungle Jim’s hasdisclosed plans for theacquisition of the proper-ty from the Union Town-ship Community Im-provement Corporation,for parking lot enhance-ment and maintenance,for roof replacement, forthe acquisition of equip-ment, for refrigerationand (heating, ventilationand air-conditioning)maintenance and up-grades and for the con-

struction of a new retailbuilding on the proper-ty,” Kuchta said.

“Outside the scope ofthe current project, Idon’t know what — if any– expansion plans may beon the radar for JungleJim’s.”

Jimmy Bonaminio,marketing manager forJungle Jim’s, said thebusiness has “big plans”for its Eastgate store,“but they’re not final, sowe don’t want to talkabout them yet.”

Bonaminio did offerthis teaser: Expect to seeconstruction work thereby year’s end.

School Employees be-came effective July 1,2013, and runs throughJune 30, 2017.

Thecontracts includeanew high-deductiblehealth plan for all threeorganizations and a teach-erevaluationmodelbasedon the Ohio Standards forthe Teaching Profession.

The contract negotia-tions had been ongoingsince May. The contracts

were approved by theschool board during itsNov. 18 meeting.

“Frommyperspective,I’m pleased (with) the col-laborative nature of thebargaining,” said Super-intendent Dallas Jackson.

Jackson said some de-lays in solidifying thecon-tractswerebasedonwait-ing for decisions on thestate budget and federalhealth care.

“This is a fairly mod-est, but competitive con-tract,”hesaid, adding thattheseparticular contractswill extend the life of the2012 operating levy an ad-ditional year through

2017.Both the Teachers As-

sociation and the PublicSchool Employees havehad salary freezes for thepast two years, he said.

Donna Lauver, presi-dent of the Forest HillsTeachers Association,said the contract wasagreed upon with a lot ofcollaboration and supportbetween the bargainingunits and the district.

“They are low to mod-est increases,” she saidabout the salary increase.

“We didn’t get backwhat we lost,” said Lauv-er, referring to salariesthat have been frozen the

last several years.Gary Conway, presi-

dent of the Local 177, saidhe was pleased with thecontract.

“I thought therewere alot of issues put on the ta-ble,” he said. “I think (thePublic School Employees)and theschooldistricthada great dialogue and wereable to reach an agree-ment.”

Jim Frooman, vicepresident of the schoolboard, said, “The board asa whole thought the over-all contract was fair andreasonable. The contractprovides incredible sta-bility to the district.”

Canceling the street-car won’t cost much lessthan finishing it, city offi-cials said ina last-ditchef-fort to save the project –an effort that didn’t ap-pear to sway the incomingmayor or council mem-bers.

The city will have tal-lied $32.8millionworth ofwork by month’s end,streetcar executive JohnDeatrick said in a recentcouncil committee spe-cial meeting – well aboveprevious estimates ofabout $26 million. Finish-ing the 3.6-mile route willrequire $71 million morein citymoneyplus federalmoney, he said.

Shutting itdown,on theother hand, would takemore than a year and costbetween $30.6million and$47.6 million, Deatricksaid.

Canceling mid-con-struction has many com-plications, he said, suchasfinding a stopping pointon new water lines beinglaid and deciding how torebuild torn-up sidewalksand streets. Recoupingmoney by selling the carsto another project wouldrequire spending more tofinish building them.

Deatrick oversaw thepublic portion of TheBanks riverfront devel-opment before the cityhired him to right thestreetcar project in April.Since then, he said Thurs-day, it has been on timeand on budget.

Bottom line: It wouldcost $7.5 million to $24.5million more to finish the$133 million project thancancel it, depending on fi-nal “closeout” costs, ac-cording to the administra-tion.

“For an $8 million dif-ference, you get a project– you get a streetcar,”Budget Director Lea

Eriksen said.Theestimatedcloseout

costs don’t include poten-tial litigationfromproper-ty owners and contrac-tors. Deatrick also notedthat canceling the street-car might increase thelikelihood that the courtsforce the city to pick upDuke Energy’s estimated$15 million cost to movegas and electric lines.

Streetcar supporterson council pronouncedthe decision a no-brainer,but Mayor-elect JohnCranley and the three in-coming council memberswere largely unim-pressed. Kevin Flynn,Da-vid Mann and Amy Mur-ray, all streetcar oppo-nents who attended themeeting, questioned thenumbers and again calledfor a temporary halt toconstruction.

“We have to scrutinizethese numbers,” Flynnsaid. “Therewas a lot said– and a lot that wasn’t ac-curate.”

Deatrick announcedmidway through the pres-entation that some slideshad incorrect numbersand changed themby sev-eral million dollars. Evenwith the change, the ad-ministration’s math wasunclear and it was uncer-

tain how they got the finalfigures.

Flynn and Murray alsosaid operating costs werelargely unaddressedThursday. They are ex-pected to run $3.4 millionto $4.5 million a year,Eriksen said, with about20 percent covered byfares. The rest is slated tocome from casino pro-ceeds.

Cranley, who didn’t at-tend the presentation, rid-iculed the idea that itwould take a year ormoretoshutdownthestreetcar.

“Of course the peoplewho have incompetentlyrun this project would beincompetent at shutting itdown,” he said. “That’swhy we’re going to havenew leadership.

“It does not cost $40million to say ‘stop,’”Cranley said.

He expressed confi-dence that contractorsMesser Construction andPrus Construction – bothlocal companies – wouldcooperate in ending theproject: “I believe theywill be great partners tounwind this mess.”

Cranley and all threeincoming council mem-bers repeated their callsto stop construction untilthey’re seated Dec. 1.

HONOR ROLLS

Even before the officialstart of the basketball sea-son, members of the Ander-son High School basketballteam are working togetherand scoring big with someyoung fans.

Groups of Anderson bas-ketball players recentlyread to elementary schoolstudents at both Ayer andMaddux ElementarySchools.

“Having the AHS basket-ball players in the kinder-garten classroomwas such apositive experience for thestudents,” said Ayer teacherKim Kollman. “They weregreat rolemodels as they en-couraged the kindergart-ners to do their best work.Sharing their time made thestudents feel valued andthey are eager for the guysto visit again soon.”

Anderson varsity basket-ball coach, Chris DeLotell,said the decision to havebasketball players read toelementary school studentswas the result of meetingswith the elementary schoolprincipals.

“Iwanted to find away forour players to make an im-pact in the Forest Hills dis-trict, off the court and out-side of Anderson’s walls,” hesaid.

“Having the AHS basket-ball players visit our secondgrade classroomswas such agreat opportunity,” saidAyer teacher Kelly Schulte.“My students admired theplayers as positive rolemod-els and were excited to havethem as guest readers.”

“I think the players get asmuch as they givewhen theygo into elementary class-rooms,” Coach DeLotellsaid. “While they are withthe students, our players getfirst-hand experience thatshows them that the elemen-tary kids see them as rolemodels. I think that helpsthe players understand howimportant it is that they con-duct themselves in a posi-tive way on and off thecourt. It also helps our play-ers to feel better about

themselves when they seehow excited the elementarystudents are to be aroundthem.”

Another benefit, thecoach added, is that the bas-ketball players are helpingto attract awhole newgener-ation of Redskins fans. Theplayers really enjoyed theirfirst reading session and arelooking forward to theirnext opportunity to readwith elementary students.

The players who partici-pated in the first readingsessions were: Ayer – EddieNoll, Ryan Boldt, Connor

Wilson, Hunter Hoffman,Brody Denning, Nick Bar-tholomew, Cory Hinaman,Dustin Parsons, Jordan Wil-liams, Jack Barton, ZachWilliams, Worth Allen, Eth-an Monroe-Peet, AnthoneDulaney, and Nick Vosel;Maddux – Cody Riley, AlecMcClain, Jackson Long, Lo-gan Sherrick, Jake Martin,Zach Larrance, DaAndreHadnot, JordanO’Neill,MaxHands, DeAndre McCallum,Jacob Rose, Bryan Vorder-brueggen, Jackson Burton,DeAnthony McCallum andAlex Azeez.

High school bas-ketball seasontips off soon and

boys teams in the ForestHills Journal coveragearea are ready to hit thecourt running.

AndersonThe Redskins fin-

ished last season 10-13,including a 5-7 recordgoodfor fifthplace in theEastern Cincinnati Con-ference.

First-year head coachChris DeLotell takesover a team with no re-turning starters, but fullof senior leadership.

“The players have im-pressed me with theirenthusiasm and workethic,” DeLotell said.“We have a good mix ofseniors and underclass-men who enjoy playingtogether. They havebought in to the thingswe want our program tobe about: aggressive,hard-nosed team de-fense; great effort; andpositive energy.”

Among the seniorsare forward Kevin Rog-ers and center AlexPfeiffer down low andguards Jordan Williams,Cody Riley and EddieNoll outside.

Keep an eye on sopho-moreDeAnthonyMcCal-lum, who will handle thepoint-guard duties.

“Our strength is in thepost,” DeLotell said.“We’ve got some bulk,maybe more than Ithoughtwe’dhave.We’regoing tobeaprettyphys-ical.”

The Redskins open onthe road Dec. 6 at Love-land before cominghome tohostFinneytownDec. 7.

McNicholasThe Rockets went 13-

11 and finished second inthe Greater CatholicLeague Central behindRoger Bacon last seasonbefore falling to Taft inthe sectional finals.

Head coach Tim Mo-nahan graduated fiveseniors from that club,including three starters.

Two senior startersreturn in guard DannyBryan and post playerBrian Corpuz.

Junior Greg Kentshould land the startingpoint guard role, while atrio of classmates inSean Byrne, Kyle Mor-risroeandJacobBradleycompete for the remain-ing starting positions.

“We’ll be better as wego along in the season,”Monahansaid. “Wecouldtake some lumps early.We won’t even get ourfootball guys back until(Nov. 24), so we haven’tbeen able to practicewith the whole team.

“Once we get thoseguys back, we’ll need toget them in basketballshape.We’renot real big,so we’re going to try toplay a quicker game. Ifeel likeoncewehaveev-erybody in shape we cango pretty deep and keepcoming at you.”

Defensively, look forthe Rockets to stick totheir traditional man-to-man principles with anoccasional zone wrinkleavailable depending onthe opponent.

Monahan said Baconshould be the team tobeat in the new GCLCoed, with Purcell Mar-ian a possible dark-horsecontender.

Ward is ineligible un-til thesecondquarterbutcould become theschool’s first 1,000 pointscorer by the end of theseason as he’s been onvarsity since his fresh-man year.

“Having everyoneback from last year’sveryyoungteamisexcit-ing,” Pugh said. “Lastyear we had eight fresh-men playing a lot of var-sityminutes.Weareanx-ious to see how the guysplay this year with a sea-son under their belts.”

The remainder of theLions are sophomoresGriffin Dickerson,Adam McCoy, BransenVilardo and Ben Huxta-ble.

Seniors Matt Sesterand Tyler Ernst, alongwith junior small for-ward Isaiah Bostic – sonof former University ofCincinnati star CurtisBostic – should roundoutthe starting lineup.

“Some juniors have totake the step from JV tovarsity and learn thegame speed for us,”Stricker said. “There’snot a doubt about it inmymind that we have one of

lutely go as fast as possi-ble,” Stricker said. “Wecan’t get into a half-courtgame with our size.We’re going to press andpressure 94 feet and getup and down. If we don’tplay that way, we’re notgoing to be very good.”

Returning seniorguard Zach McCormickisverygood.He recentlysignedhis letter of intentto play at Miami Univer-sity and is one of the pre-

the top five most diffi-cult schedules in Cincin-nati. We want that chal-lenge for our guys.”

Turpin plays sixgames in the first14daysof the season, includingits opener Dec. 6 at Mil-ford and the home open-er Dec. 7 against St. Xa-vier.

Walnut HillsCoach Ricardo Hill

has a tough act to followafter going 27-2 and totheDivision I state semi-finals in his first year asWalnut Hills head coach.TheEagles also aperfect

ItwasNageldayat therecentECC middle school seventh-grade league volleyball tourna-ment at Kings, as the two ForestHills teams, known asNagel Sil-ver and Nagel Blue, going intothe tournament seeded thirdand fourth in the seven-teamleague behind unbeaten Love-land and second-seeded Mil-ford, bothmade it to thechampi-onship finals.

Nagel athletic teams com-pete against exactly the sameschools in the ECC as do Turpinand Anderson high schools, but

sinceNagel feeds into both highschools they field two teams inevery sport.

School policy never allowsthetwoNagel teamstoplayeachother during the regular season.

This day, they did.After winning opening round

matches vs. Kings and WalnutHills respectively, Silver upsetLoveland in a thrilling three-game match 25-20, 12-25, 26-24,as Spencer Heming served thefinal three game-winningpoints. Blue followedwith a pairof equally tense 25-23 wins over

Milford, settingup the tourney'sfirst ever all-Nagel finale.

Silver prevailed, 25-17, 25-23,and after the game the twoteams traded congratulatoryhugs, posed for group picturestogether, and then shared cook-ies and cake.

During the entire day, when-ever one team played, the othersquad was in the stands loudlycheering, a situation that gaveeach Nagel team the advantageofahomecourt-likeatmosphereeven in the Kings gymnasium.

A publication of

Last week’s questionDo you think President Oba-

ma will be able to keep hispromise that Americans will beable to keep canceled healthinsurance policies for a year ascompanies and consumers ad-just to the new demands of thehealth care law? Why or whynot?

“Can we all stop and take abreath right now? There hasbeen so much bashing of thepresident that I don’t want tohear it any more.

“I recognize that the newsystem is not working. Manytimes in my life I have experi-enced a computer programneeding time to actually work.

I also recognize that manypeople are waiting to enroll inhealth care and that manypeople cannot afford to losethe health care they currentlyenjoy. I do believe this situa-tion will improve, the presi-dent’s promise will be kept andwe will all get what we need.Cooler heads must prevail.”

E.E.C.

“No he won’t be able to keepthat promise! He never in-tended to keep it! It was a totallie and he knew it.

“The purpose of Obamacareis a mass redistribution ofwealth. It has nothing to dowith health care reform. It haseverything to do with govern-ment control and socialistpolicy.

“Sadly, it must be concededthat the president of the Unit-ed States of America is anarrogant, narcissistic, bold-faced liar.”

R.W.J.

“‘Keep his promise???’ Thislying cypher is incapable oftruth!!!”

J.G.

“I heard Speaker Boehnersay the other day that “Amer-ica has the best health-caredelivery system in the world.”If he is that badly out of touchwith reality he shouldn’t beallowed to win another elec-tion.

My personal wealth waswiped out by this system. Iwas forced to pay endlesslyrising premiums (which endedat $20,000 per year, when Icould no longer afford them)and massive deductibles ontop of that.

“I have liens on my housefrom debt collectors who weretoo lazy to try to contact myinsurance company to find outwhy they weren’t getting paidand who wouldn’t tell me whatthe charges were for so I couldtackle the insurance companyon my own.

“I have never been sickenough to be hospitalized and Ihave paid full rates for theminor problems I have due tothe deductibles. And because Iwasn’t able to qualify for agroup plan the hospitals anddoctors charged me muchmore than other people pay forthe same treatment.

The reason is that I haveone child with a spontaneousmutation genetic disease andtwo other family memberswho had ‘pre-existing condi-tions’ during the time I wasinsured. My own family thinksI could have “shopped around”for insurance, but they neveractually tried to do it.

“The best I could do was toget a policy like the one I al-ready had, which wouldn’t

cover my family for a yearduring which I would have hadto pay double premiums tomake sure we didn’t have acrisis that wasn’t covered bythe old policy.

“How many people whovote for Republicans can af-ford $40,000 per year for med-ical insurance?

“The Affordable Care Acttakes care of most of the is-sues I face, but it’s too late. Istill have to go to court to getthe liens lifted because judgesimposed them on the word ofthe insurance companies with-out giving me a chance to pre-sent the facts. And I can’t besure I will get rid of them all.

“No one deserves our sup-port if they have criticism, butaren’t willing to propose solu-tions. And these problemsdon’t just affect a handful ofunfortunate citizens.

“The insurance companiesare out of control and the hos-pital corporations are out ofcontrol. Doctors are part of theproblem, because they don’tsee earning 10 times as muchas their patients to be a prob-lem.

“And all of the Republicansdeserve to be shaken out of thestupor they have fallen intowith their false numbers onwelfare and uninsured.”

“Yes, despite all the anti-federal government propagan-da and (conscious and un-conscious) racism to the con-trary, I do believe PresidentObama will be able to keepthis promise for the year-longcoverage extension. He wantsto help the poor and uninsuredget affordable healthcare.After all this time, that shouldnot be so difficult to under-stand.”

TRog

“First, let’s be clear, thatwas NOT a promise. It wasjust another one of his cam-paign lies. He knew from thestart that most Americanscould not keep their currentplans since they could notpossibly conform to Obama-care (eg. seniors with materni-ty coverage?).

“Secondly, this schemedepends on overcharging thecurrently insured and youngwho will not participate. Third-ly, when the employer man-date kicks-in 70 percent ofthose who get insurancethrough work will be canceled.Medicaide sign-ups are grow-ing rapidly through the ex-changes. This is all by designon the way to Obama’s goal ofa single payer socialized medi-cine!!”

NEXT QUESTIONThe Ohio House has passed a billwhich would redefine self-defense and circumstanceswhere the use of force trumpsthe duty to retreat to publicsettings, such as stores andstreets. Under current law,residents need not retreat be-fore using force if they arelawfully in their homes, vehiclesor the vehicle of an immediatefamily member. Is this goodlegislation? Why or why not?

This is a story about hope,where little hope once existed.

It’s a story about importantchanges that have taken placeat a slow but steady pace. It’s astory about the way we treatpeople with developmentaldisabilities.

Fifty years ago, our com-munities treated people withdevelopmental disabilities as

people whocould not havemuchmeaningin their lives,who didn’thave hopesand dreams.Many lived ininstitutions,away fromtheir familiesand separatedfrom the rest

of the community.We began to realize how

our attitudes needed to bechanged. We found ways forpeople with developmentaldisabilities to live in our com-munities, to go to our neigh-borhood schools and to workalongside us.

As our attitudes changed,so did the agency I serve, theResident Home Corp.

Fifty years ago, our agencywas founded by parents who

had limited educational op-tions for their children. Theirchildren did not have access topublic schools. As a result,they started their own resi-dential school. There was nofunding, no proven practicesand no experts to guide them.Few people in the communityappreciated howmuch thesechildren could learn or eventhat they had feelings andambitions.

It was a grand idea – at thetime. As the evolution con-tinued, so did our laws. Nolonger could children withdevelopmental disabilities besegregated in separateschools. They had to be edu-cated together with typicallydeveloping children. Ouragency closed its school andchanged its mission.

Today, across the Cincinnatiregion, Resident Home Corp.serves a broad range of peoplewith developmental disabil-ities, from toddlers to olderadults. Our clients includethose with autism, Down syn-drome, cerebral palsy andother physical and intellectualdisabilities. We focus on agreater variety of develop-mental disabilities than almostany other local nonprofit. Weoperate group homes, provide

therapy to people with devel-opmental disabilities and offerhome-based services so peoplewith disabilities can live withtheir families or on their own.

Most important, our atti-tude has changed and so hasthe attitude of the communi-ties we serve. We now knowthat people with developmen-tal disabilities can show pro-gress and lead fulfilling lives.

Despite the dramaticchanges in ourmission andprograms, our name had notchanged – until now.We fig-ured this year – our 50th anni-versary – would be an appro-priate time tomake thatchange.

We chose “Envision.” Itevokes our commitment toenvision together, with thepeople we serve, a futurefilled with dreams for peoplewith disabilities. We hope ourcommunities will dreamwithus.

Envision serves people withdevelopmental disabilities inButler, Clermont, HamiltonandWarren counties. Moreinformation is available atwww.envisionohio.org.

Bright future for people withdevelopmental disabilities

Dear township friendsand neighbors,

Public service in An-derson Township has been apart of my life for 24 years.It has been my privilege to

While commitment topersonal convictions is im-portant, my term in officehas also taught me that flex-ibility, teamwork and con-sensus are important.

This has been an amazingjourney, and the changes inour township are far toomany to list in this letter.Accomplishments andachievements were madepossible because you havegiven me the necessaryyears to see so many pro-jects completed. I thankyou.

My hope for the future isthat you will continue tohold onto your vision, yourgoals, and your dreams forthis community. Alwaysappreciate living in a town-ship where government issimple, efficient and costeffective. Always rememberit is the government whichis closest to the people.

COLUMBUS (Ohio) — - Taketwo.

SummitCountryDaywon itssecondconsecutiveDivision IIIstate soccer championshipNov.9, beating Mansfield Christian2-1 at Columbus Crew Stadiumfor the title.

“It’s just as sweet,” said Sil-ver Knights head coach Bar-nard Baker of the second statevictory. “Because this one wasso unexpected and because it’smy last game, this one is very,very special to me.”

Unexpected in that Summitgraduated so many playersfrom its 2012 title team, leavingtheSilverKnightswith talented- albeit largelyvarsity-untested- players to begin the season.

So fitting, perhaps, that apairofsophomoresdidthescor-ing honors in the state final;CharlieMaciejewskinettedonein the first half and BrendanJones scored in the second.

Mansfield Christian got itsgoal in the final twominutes offa corner kick Baker still wasn’tsure about more than an hourafter the game.

“I’m going to have to see thetape,” he said. “Therewas somestrange call that got thema cor-ner and I don’t know exactlyhow it happened. But we wereable to survive that.”

More than survive. Summittook advantage of Crew Stadi-um’s immense 77-yard widthand Mansfield’s three-manback row.

“We played everything wideand attacked the corners,”Bak-er said. “We knew they hadplayed on a smaller field andhad never been there before, sowe tried to take advantage ofthat.

“You think of playing ongrass and it might slow youdown, but it’s so, so super-fast.Butwith thatwidth, everythingis inplay.Wesaid, ‘Let’skeepat-tacking the corners,’ and even-tually they had to start protect-ing them and that left somegaps for us.”

Summit reached thechampi-onship game by beating Wor-thington Christian 2-0 in thestate semifinals Nov. 6.

“It’s so big,” said junior for-ward Austin Smythe. “Lastyearwewere full of seniors andthey said we couldn’t get back.We really wanted this to showthem we could.”

Baker may have sided with

the recent graduates at thestart of the season, but he’smore than a believer now.

“The word for us all seasonwas survival, not repeat,” hesaid. “After losing as manyplayers aswedid and as tough aschedule as we had to play, wethought we’d have five or sixlosses and have to battle.

“We did battle and we didsurvive, and here we areagain.”

Midway through the firsthalf Maciejewski foundSmythe streaking down theright side for the first goal.

“I got a chance and I got astep on the the defense,” saidSmythe, a Mariemont resident.“I just got a foot on it and put itin the back of the net

The second goal came at the15:04 mark of the second halfwhen senior Matt Meistersubbed in for a crampingSmythe on the second of twoconsecutive corner kicks.

Meister - a Hyde Park resi-dent - found himself open from15 yards out on a deflection.

“I faked it, crossed it over tomyright footandtook theshot,”he said. “I was surprised I hadroom tomove the ball like I did,let alone take the shot.

“Itwas unbelievable to comeinoff thebenchandscoreagoallate in the game, this late in the

season, my senior year. We didlose a lot of seniors from lastyear, but I think the seniors thisyear really steppedup.We real-ly want this.

“Wewant this because it’s sofun, just the journey of makingit to state.”

I got some unexpect-ed exercise today. Thewind was blowing sohard when I hung upthe clothes that it liter-ally blew most of themoff the line right after Iput the clothespins onthe last of the socks.Now I didn’t mind chas-ing the dish towelsacross the field, but itwas a little embarrass-ing to see my “unmen-tionables” flying freelytoward the road. Mygirlfriend called melater and said she wasdriving by when all thishappened. “Made mechuckle,” she said. Iguess it’s what we calla cloud with a silverlining.

Giovanna’sgluten-freemeatballs andspaghetti

You know her asJoanne Trimpe, authorof two Holy Chow cook-books, the first ofwhich is “Holy Chow”and the second, newone is “Holy Chow Glu-ten Free.” You mayrecognize her as a tele-vision personality andpersonal chef to Arch-bishop Dennis Schnurr.I know her as Giovan-na, and we have be-come friends and col-leagues. Giovanna de-cided to write anothercookbook with gluten-free recipes becauseArchbishop Schnurr isgluten intolerant, yetenjoys good food.

“I was nervous atfirst. I didn’t knowmuch about gluten in-tolerance so I knew Ineeded to learn how tocook gluten free, butwith all the flavor ofmy original recipes,”she said. Well, Giovan-na has nailed it. Herbook has really good,doable gluten-free reci-pes, from appetizerslike crab cakes thatstart your meal withflair to dinners that areentertainment worthy.Her eggplant Parmesanis unbelievably good.There’s a special sec-tion from friends andfamily. I contributedrecipes for the dessertsection. Every recipehas a photo along witha Bible quote relatingto it, so you are feedingboth body and soul.

I chose Giovanna’smeatball and spaghetti

recipesincethat’s auniversalfavoriteand a nicechangefrom allthe turkeywe eatthis time

of year. Check out herwebsite http://holy-chowbook.com/ forinformation to pur-chase the book. Alsoavailable at Joseph-Beth Booksellers inRookwood and sells for$16.95.

Prepare meatballs

11⁄2 pounds of ground chuck1 teaspoon kosher salt1⁄2 teaspoon ground pepper1 egg white11⁄2 tablespoons choppedfresh parsley or 1teaspoon dry

1⁄2 cup soy milk or any typelactose-free milk

11⁄2 cups bread crumbs

Now, this is where itis important to use glu-ten-free bread crumbs.You can buy frozengluten-free bread and,using your food proces-sor, make 11⁄2 cups.

Work the meatballmixture with yourhands. Keep hands wetwhile rolling meat intoabout two-inch meat-balls. Place meatballson a large plate whileyou finish. This shouldyield about 18-20 meat-balls.

Prepare simple to-mato sauce

Put 1⁄4 cup extra vir-gin olive oil in largesauce pan on mediumheat. Stir in 1⁄2 cup

chopped onions andcook for 3 minutes. Add3 cloves minced garlicand cook for only 2 or 3minutes and be carefulnot to burn garlic. Add2 teaspoons Kosher saltand 1 teaspoon pepperand simmer for another2 or 3 minutes. Thenadd two 32 oz. canswhole tomatoes,crushed with yourhands (or fresh toma-toes that are equal tothe same amount).Cook for 5 minutes.Add 1 teaspoon drybasil or about 8-10fresh basil leaves. Nowadd two 15 oz. canstomato sauce and two 6oz. cans tomato paste.Rinse out cans to getthe most of the sauce.Measure out two cupsof the juice/sauce wa-ter and add that tosauce. Simmer on lowfor 20 to 30 minutes formarinara sauce only, or45 minutes to an hour if

you are adding un-cooked meatballs.

Instant vanillasauce for breadpudding, cake, etc.

OK, trust me on thisone. Instead of makingvanilla sauce with eggs,etc. from scratch, justmelt good quality vanil-la ice cream slowlyuntil it’s slightly warm.What you’ll wind upwith is a not-too-thicksauce that is deliciouson bread pudding ordrizzled into hot choco-late.

Big Lots Store No. 428on Beechmont Avenuewas honored as the 2013Business Advisory Coun-cil Employer of the Year.

Theawardwaspresent-ed at the Clermont Cham-ber of Commerce Legisla-tive Luncheon and wasgiven moments before Lt.Gov.Mary Taylor present-ed the keynote address onimportant issues takingplace in Ohio.

“We are pleased to rec-ognizeBigLotsasEmploy-er of the Year,” said LisaDavis, Director of Com-munity Relations for theClermont CountyBoard ofDevelopmental Disabili-ties (CCDD) and BusinessAdvisory Council mem-ber.

“The store managerand staff provided exem-plary services to individ-uals with disabilities in

2013.”Big Lots has participat-

ed in numerous communi-ty based work assess-ments with ClermontCounty Board of Develop-mental Disabilities andother Business AdvisoryCouncilmember organiza-tions. These assessmentsprovide individuals theop-portunity to learn all as-pectsof theretail industry.

This isahugeundertak-ing for Nancy McInturf’sstaff, because it involvestraining that includes un-loading, pricing, and pre-paring merchandise forthe sales floor; recoveringand relocating existingmerchandise; greetingcustomers and handingout store advertisements;cart retrieval; and how toprovide appropriate cus-tomer service.

Big Lots participated in

Clermont DD’s Bridges toTransition Program in2013. This summer youthwork opportunity in-volved Big Lots workingwith four sets of highschool students over aneight-week period to helpthem learn all aspects ofthe retail industry.

This is very similar tothe duties that are taughtduring community basedwork assessments—theonly difference is, thework assessments usuallyinvolved one or two indi-viduals; the Bridges sum-mer program involvedtraining multiple groupsof students at one time.

In addition to the as-sessments in 2013, BigLots also hired an individ-ual fromClermont CountyBoard of DevelopmentalDisabilities as a merchan-dise associate to assist

with processing incomingshipments within thestore.

State Sen. Joe Uecker

presented a commenda-tion to Big Lots from theStatehouse at the Cham-ber Luncheon. “Your sup-

port of peoplewithdisabil-ities in the workplace is tobe applauded,” said Ueck-er.
