GOSHEN TOWNSHIP — Im- provements have been made to a hazardous intersection on a de- tour for state Route 28 here and more signs have been put up to improve safety. At the June 9 meeting of Go- shen Township Trustees, Ad- ministrator Lou Ethridge re- ported that subcontractors for the Ohio Department of Trans- portation have widened the in- tersection of short state Route 48 and state Route 132 on the de- tour route so that large trucks can make what was previously a sharp turn. More signs also have been in- stalled near that three-way in- tersection warning drivers to stop, and a sign on eastbound state Route 28 and short 48 in- forms motorists that the “Road (is) open to Beck Hardware.” The family-owned business is at 1798 state Route 28, just beyond the eastbound detour. More updates on traffic con- trol measures and the state’s progress on a bridge replace- ment that’s prompted the clo- sure of part of state Route 28 in Goshen Township were expect- ed at a June 16 meeting. That meeting was set for 10 a.m. at Goshen Township Hall. Trustees agreed on June 9 to look into leasing a second build- ing for a firehouse west of the bridge closure during the State Route 28 project. The township’s firehouse is east of the closure, and at a June 2 meeting with ODOT, Steve Pegram, chief of Goshen Fire & EMS, said 75 per- cent of the department’s runs are west of the bridge closure. The bridge replacement that began June 1 is expected to take 75 days, but at the request of township officials and local business owners, ODOT staff agreed to investigate whether there was any way to shorten the project. At the township’s June 2 meeting with ODOT staff, Andy Evans, president of the Goshen Chamber of Commerce, ex- pressed concern about the pro- ject’s potential negative eco- nomic impact on local business- es. Speaking for his own busi- ness, Evans Funeral Home just east of the bridge in Goshen Township, Evans said that he was looking at a possible loss of tens of thousands of dollars be- cause many of the cemeteries that the funeral home goes to are west of the bridge. He said if traffic is significant at rush hour when many visitations begin, potential clients may choose an- other funeral home. “Let’s not even discuss Evans Funeral Home,” its owner said. “People might choose to go to Frisch’s (on state Route 28) rath- er than McDonald’s for (a sand- wich).” Evans said he hoped the June 2 meeting with ODOT helped “put a face” to business owners and others affected by the tem- porary state Route 28 closure. The Facebook page for Beck Paint & Hardware’s Goshen Township store reminds cus- tomers that “it takes more than a bridge closing to get Beck’s to close its doors.” Although owner Stan Beck had said business on the first couple says of the closure was half of what it normally was, customers have since figured out new ways to get to Beck Paint & Hardware, said Stan’s son, Matt, who manages the Go- shen store. He said the sign at the eastbound detour stating that Beck’s is open “has helped slightly.” “Most of our customers are local, so they know how to get around the detours,” Matt Beck said. “They know the back roads.” A Goshen Township safety fair has been scheduled for June 30 at Beck Paint & Hardware.

“One year we hadhead-to-head dodge ballplayed against the vol-unteers. One time theywere given a list of ques-tions and had to decide ifthey were about theRevolutionary War ofthe Civil War and some-times it is more physicallike pulling somethingup a hill,” Portmannsaid.

He added the race hasabout 500 volunteersfrom local charities, towhich the proceedsfrom the race are donat-ed. The race has raisedabout $500,000 since itbegan. The race is stilllooking for volunteerswho can sign up at the

Today really was a simple countrypleasures kind of day.

Son Shane brought his three girlsover and I took the two oldest ones,Eva, 7 and Emerson, almost 3, for awalk down to the East Fork river. Thegirls caught crawdads, tiny fish andscooped up lots of shells and othertreasures from the shallow water.

I didn’t realize so much time hadpassed by until Shane came walkingdown with baby Ellery in his arms.“Time for Emerson’s nap”, he said.

So we went back to the house and eventhough Shane didn’t stay for lunch I did have

all the makings ready for this simplepizza.

I was also going to photograph thegirls making the pizza for this column.But since that didn’t happen, I’ll share aphoto of the reason why: two little girlsenjoying, as I said, “simple country plea-sures.”

Kids can make easysunflower pizza

Sunflower pizzaThe little ones will love making this. Good even with just cheese.

1 can flaky biscuits, 10 oz.Pizza sauceMozzarellaOptional toppings: pepperoni, chopped bell peppers, mushrooms,

onions, etc.

Preheat oven to 400. Separate dough into 10 biscuits. Place 1 biscuit incenter of cookie sheet lined with foil and sprayed. Arrange remaining bis-cuits in circle, edges slightly overlapping, around center biscuit. Gently presswith your had into a 10-inch circle. This makes your sunflower. Spread a thinlayer of sauce on top. Sprinkle with your choice of toppings. End with top-ping of mozzarella. Bake 12-15 minutes. To serve, pull apart.

Mediterranean chicken with orange marmaladesauce

Lately I’ve been using thighs for this recipe. I promised this recipe to ayoung man whose name I don’t remember. He stopped to chat with me atthe store. Funny that I can’t remember his name but do remember veryclearly what he wanted, so here it is: a really good tasting, fairly easy, maindish for chicken.

4-6 boneless skinless breast halves or thighsSalt, pepper, flourOlive oil3/4 to 1 cup white wine3 tablespoons lemon juice1 heaping teaspoon minced garlic or more1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes or more1/4 cup thawed undiluted orange juiceUp to 1-1/2 cups orange marmalade

Salt and pepper chicken, Dredge in flour. Saute in oil, browning wellon both sides. Keep warm. Pour wine in pan and cook, stirring to bringbrown bits up. Add lemon juice, garlic, red pepper, and half of the orangejuice. Bring to boil and cook about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 cup marmalade andrest of orange juice.

Taste and add more marmalade if desired. Serve on bed of rice orcouscous with sauce poured over chicken.

Five minute no-cook pizza sauceGo to taste on the flavorings. Use a food processor or whisk by hand.

Thanks to the reader, who shared this recipe. “I like it because there’s nocooking involved”, she said. Freezes well.

Blend together:

15 oz. can tomato sauce6 oz. can tomato paste1-2 teaspoons minced garlic2-3 teaspoons dried oregano - start with 21-1/2 to 2 teaspoons dried basilOnion powder to taste - start with 3/4 teaspoon3/4 teaspoon sugar - this helps tone down some of the acid of the

tomatoes

THANKS TO RITA HEIKENFELD

Harding’s comments onGOP are what miss badly

Regarding Len Harding’scolumn June 3 “GOP on target,if their aim is to miss.”

Len, it is surprising you arenot calling out the Ohio statelegislature for not solvinghomelessness, worldwide hun-ger, unemployment/underem-ployment or world peace. Whenyou single out Cincinnati’s “53percent of school kids living inpoverty,” don’t you think thisstatistic is indicative of a na-tional problem?

To be fair to your rant on Re-publicans in Columbus, I thinkyou need to step back and lookat what your buddy on Pennsyl-vania Avenue has done to allevi-ate this problem. Unfortunate-ly, your buddy Barack justpushes policy to make thingsworse. More government regu-lations, higher taxes and a mul-titude of red tape for businesswill ultimately stagnate wages,cut benefits, or force layoffs.

Will opening the borders andallowing a new flood of low-wage, illegal alien workers

make things better for those ator near poverty now? Maybe weshould just wave a magic wandand double the minimum wage –because, after all, that is far eas-ier than actually trying to fixour economy with policy that isconducive to business growth.Those carrying the $15 wagepicket signs will surely be blind-sided by the pink slip they re-ceive if that law passes.

Nevertheless, I suppose youare one of those kool-aid drink-ing liberals who really believesthese contrived stories from themedia about how the economyhas roared back and is on thebrink of exploding to newheights.

Looking at the DOW/Nasdaqvs. your 53 percent statisticonly reinforces the notion thatWall Street has recovered, butMain Street never did. That, myfriend is a national problem –not one that any state legisla-ture is going to solve “withoutraising our taxes,” as you havecommanded.

June 10 questionWhat should Cincinnati city

leaders and residents do to curtailthe recent trends of gun-relatedcrimes in the city?

“It is time for the Cincinnatileaders to talk with past leaderswith proven records of reduc-ing murder rates, like perhapsthe guys in NYC that made suchdrastic changes in that murdercapital back in the ‘90s. Proba-bly best if they avoid chats withthe folks in Ferguson or Balti-more though. That was mostdefinitely not the way to go.”

M.J.F.

“Cincinnati has now hiredtwo police chiefs from outsidethe city. The sad part is Cincin-

nati had a qualified in-housecandidate better suited to thetask (assistant chief Paul Hum-phries). ... Maybe it is time tohire someone who knows thecity. That would be my 90-dayplan. Go figure!”

On Monday, I was able toprovide a moment of joy andreassurance to a family whosestrength and dedication havebeen continually tested overthe last year.

A year ago, I received aphone call from Sean Hogan, aconstituent I have the plea-sure of representing in theOhio Senate. Sean’s daughter,Kayleigh, is one of the brav-est, most inspiring 9-year-oldsI have ever encountered. Kay-leigh was diagnosed with apediatric brain tumor lastyear which has led to herfamily’s constant battle forher health and happiness.

Sean called my office forassistance after he was unableto purchase a pediatric braintumor awareness license platefor their family vehicle. Afterundergoing the struggles thatface all families battling thisterrible disease, the Hogansdecided to help raise aware-ness and funds to supportother families in the samesituation. The family wantedto buy a specialty license plateafter they learned about themwhile at Cincinnati Children’sHospital where Kayleighreceives treatment. Unfortu-nately, the sponsor organiza-tion was unable to sell theminimum number of 500plates required under statelaw and the plate was discon-

tinued in Jan-uary of 2014.

My officeimmediatelybegan re-searching thematter anddiscoveredthat Ohio’srequirementsfor determin-ing the mini-mum number

of plates that must be sold wasnot changed after the adoptionof new license plate printingtechnology. New license plateprinters allow unique licenseplates to be printed withoutdisrupting the productionprocess, even for smallerspecialized orders. The lawsimply failed to keep up withadvancing technology and weknew something needed to bedone.

We quickly drafted legisla-tion and started the long jour-ney through the legislativeprocess, updating the Hoganfamily every step of the way.

Finally, after months oftestimony, research, phonecalls and meetings, our bill toreinstate the pediatric braintumor license plates wassigned into law. For everyplate sold, $35 goes to theChildren’s Glioma CancerFoundation to provide re-search funding and support

for kids and families duringtreatment.

It was my honor to presentthe Hogans with their veryown pediatric brain tumorawareness license plate thispast week at the Ohio Bureauof Motor Vehicles office inBatavia and to recognize theirdedication to ending pediatriccancer.

The story of the Hoganfamily’s strength and determi-nation is a testament to howwe can make our state a betterplace by engaging in the polit-ical process. By sheddinglight on this issue, we wereable to improve the lives offamilies here in our own com-munity and across Ohio. Whilewe have reason to celebratethis milestone, let us also keepthe Hogans and all familiesbattling cancer in ourthoughts and prayers.

If you would like for me ormy staff to look into an issueimportant to you or your fam-ily, please contact my officeby phone at (614) 466-8082 orby email at [email protected].

“Help Wanted.”One sign of a growing

economy is that we see thatphrase more and more often –on storefronts, in newspapersand online. It reminds thosewho see it that there’s a jobwaiting to be filled.

At Great Oaks, we’re con-stantly hearing similar re-quests from our businesspartners. They have currentjob openings – or plans forfuture expansion – andthey’re looking for potentialemployees with the righttraining to fill those jobs.

We hear that in all jobsectors, but in recent yearswe’ve heard about a partic-ular gap between jobs andtrained individuals in fieldslike manufacturing, welding,automotive technology, avia-tion maintenance and con-struction trades like HVAC,electrical, plumbing, mason-ry, heavy equipment opera-tions, and framing and fin-ishing. These are careers for

skilled pro-fessionals.

The jobsare there,through em-ployersacross theTristate re-gion. Thetraining isavailable, atcareer-tech-

nical centers like Great OaksCareer Campuses as well aspublic and private collegesand universities in the area.What seem to be missing arethose who can and will takeadvantage of the opportuni-ties. That may be your neigh-bor, your son or daughter,your friend, or even you.

Chambers of commerce,employers, economic devel-opment officials, and othershave discussed and triedincentives, marketing cam-paigns, websites, openhouses, and other avenues tospread the word.

There’s no time to lose, andthat’s where you come intothe picture. Your help is want-ed. If you know someone whois not benefiting from Ohio’seconomic recovery, give thema nudge. Tell them to checkout training options in a fieldthat interests them. Chancesare good that there’s a placeto get that training nearbyand a job that’s waiting whenthey’re done. A great firststep is to visit the websiteohiomeansjobs.org. You’llfind resources for employ-ment and school information,and assistance to guide you inreaching your goals.

We all benefit when every-one works in satisfying andchallenging careers that payfamily-sustaining wages.Strengthen your community;tell a friend about trainingopportunities and in-demandcareers. Your help is wanted.

Recently, I was surprised atthe number of Dayton resi-dents who brought their familyto our much vaunted, beautifulCincinnati Zoo.

This is not an inexpensiveundertaking for a family offour. How would you like anopportunity to keep the chil-dren fascinated and adultsprovided with learning oppor-tunities about history, engineer-ing and American service inthe world? If I said that itwould cost the gasoline re-quired to drive to Dayton, havefree admission, free parkingand free picnic facilities and beimpossible to totally view inone day, would I get your atten-

tion?The Nation-

al Museum ofthe Air Force,1100 Spaatz St.,Dayton, is justsuch a place.Though thelargest mil-itary aviationmuseum in theworld, the

many acres under roof and thesurrounding green space alsohave art exhibits, a Holocaustexhibit, a Hall of Fame, and aMemorial Park for indoor andoutdoor pleasures. It is im-mense, but a quick planningsession at www.nationalmuseu-

m.af.mil, can make any tripless overwhelming.

From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. everyday, except three in the year,the museum plans to be open.On rainy days, days with nopicnic, or moments of neededrefreshment, there is a fullservice cafeteria. With thecurrent construction of thenew, fourth building, certainexhibits areas may be restrict-ed. This is another reason tocheck the website.

More than 550 volunteersreally enjoy the opportunity tomake certain the more than1 million annual visitors have agood time. The Air Force pro-vides for utilities and security,

and federal employees createexhibits, restore aircraft, man-age the collection and planeducational and entertainingspecial events.

The Air Force MuseumFoundation raises capital forMuseum expansion through itscafe, theater, gift shop andeven flight simulators (yes, youtoo, can go inverted). Over theyears, the visits to the“Friends” desk in the mainlobby, have inspired many nonmilitary individuals and busi-ness sponsors to join the hun-dreds who proudly claim to be“Friends of the Museum.”

Ohio pride grows when wesee the number of visitors from

every state and every country,who make this a “destination”venue. When I see visitors inthe galleries, I sometimes thinkthat more people in Germanyand China are aware of thisMuseum than our own Tristate.

If you have further ques-tions or would like to bring anentire group to the museum,the website will provide thecontact numbers and the re-quirements. To my knowledge,no one has ever thought thevisit unfulfilling. Go East Sideand enjoy!

KeShawn Foley hadone reception in his four-year football career atBatavia High School.Just one, back freshmanyear.

Well, make that careertotal eight after June 11 –unofficially at least.

The former Bataviastar caught seven passesfor 149 yards and threetouchdowns to help leadthe East All-Stars to a 40-20 win against the West inthe 40th annual South-western Ohio FootballCoaches Association RonWoyan East-West All-Star football game,Thursday, at Kings HighSchool.

“I’m just having fun,”Foley said. “It’s an all-star game.”

Foley racked up morethan 100 touchdownspassing and rushing in astellar, three-time all-conference career at Ba-tavia … as a quarterback.

No receiving touch-downs.

Thursday night,though, he lined up wideas a receiver more oftenthan not and looked like aseasoned vet.

“It was pretty easy,”said the 6-foot-3, 225-pound Foley, who addedthat he plans to play quar-terback this fall at Hock-ing College.

“I love playing widereceiver. It’s like back-yard football.”

Milford quarterbackDrew Ashcraft helpedmake it easy.

Foley was on the re-ceiving end of a 36-yardpass from Ashcraft onthe East’s first posses-sion, setting up a RyanWahler (Sycamore)touchdown reception.

Ashcraft found Foleyagain on the next posses-sion deep down the leftside for a 27-yard touch-down pass.

Withrow QB Tra’VonBarnes threw a 35-yardTD strike to Foley in thesecond quarter to put theEast up 19-6.

The East passing at-tack was on target allnight with receivers Fo-ley, Wahler, DoryanBeach (Withrow) andReid Finley (WalnutHills) consistently mak-ing great adjustmentswhile the ball was in theair.

Wahler totaled 102yards on four catches.

Ashcraft, separatedby 223 days from his Mil-ford squad’s 2014 season-ending win against Love-land, looked in midsea-son form, completing 8 of14 passes for 183 yardsand the two touchdownsin the first quarter.

“It’s a good feeling,”Ashcraft said.

“You miss it a lot. You

don’t really know howmuch you miss it until af-ter you strap on yourpads that last time.”

He finished with 366passing yards and fivetouchdowns, both newall-star game records.

“It means a lot, actual-ly,” Ashcraft said.

“Because I’ve beenworking my (tail) off try-ing to get to this game.”

Diving interceptionsby Asa Palmer (Wyo-ming) and Kiowa Whaley(North College Hill)helped the West defenseslow the East passinggame in the third quar-ter.

Mount Healthy run-ning back Hjavier Pittscashed in the Palmerpick with a 1-yard touch-down run to cut the defi-cit to 19-12, but the Weststars could never get thelead.

Edgewood quarter-back Trace Reynoldsthrew touchdown passesto Pitts and Fred Riley(Fairfield) to lead theWest offense.

The East stars out-gained West 458 to 206 intotal yardage. T.J. Beach(Amelia) led the East de-fense with five tackles,two for loss.

The win marked theEast’s eighth in the lastnine years. The Eastleads the series 22-18.

After the win againstMoeller in the regional fi-nal, senior attacker JackPerez said the Bomberslike to start fast andpreach that the game isdecided in the first fiveminutes.

Fortunately for theBombers, that wasn’t thecase as Upper Arlingtonscored the first threegoals of the game. Howev-er, St. X fought its wayback to supplant the de-fending state champion7-6.

Perez scored the game-winning goal and goal-keeper Alex Deters re-corded the final save toclinch the victory.

“I’m just so proud ofthe boys,” St. Xaviercoach Nate Sprong said.“They’ve worked so hardfor this, it wasn’t pretty,but they overcame it withsheer grit in the secondhalf.”

St. X didn’t find theback of the cage until JackGreen scored the first ofhis four goals with 1:23left in the first quarter.

With two seconds leftin the first frame, GeorgeThurner cut the Bombers’deficit to 3-2.

In the second quarter,the Golden Bears re-claimed the lead withthree goals. Green scoredhis second of the game.

At the half, Upper Ar-lington led 6-3.

From there, it was allBombers as they scoredfour unanswered goals in

the second half, includingtwo more by Green. His fi-nal goal of the game tiedit.

“They were locking offon (William) Holcomb and(David) Leising,” saidGreen, the game’s mostvaluable player on of-fense. “I could take theshot all day or draw slidesand pass it. It was goodstuff.”

Matthew Donnelly alsoput one in the back of thenet and Perez scored theeventual game-winninggoal.

“On man-up rushes, wealways try to find a 3-on-2and I saw it on the leftwing,” Perez said. “I sawmy man had his headturned away from theball, so I went back-door,threw a fake and luckily itwent in.

“I had gotten stoned bythe goalie earlier. I need-

ed that one.”That goal came with

about four minutes left toplay. It was up to the de-fense to make it stand.

Upper Arlingtonplayed with more urgen-cy and the game got a lit-tle chippy. Eventually, theGolden Bears wound upwith the final possession.

They maintained thatsame deliberate approachthat netted them six goalsbut the final shot woundup in Deters’ webbing.

“In the second half, weplayed 24 minutes of shut-out lacrosse,” said Deters,the game’s defensivemost valuable player. “Ifelt the weight of the ballin my stick, saw therewasn’t much time left andI high-tailed it out ofthere.

“It still hasn’t set inquite yet. Hopefully, itdoes soon.”
