A citizen watchdog group inIndian Hill figures the Board ofEducation owes taxpayersmore than $5 million for a mill-age it passed more than fiveyears ago – which was recentlystruck down by the state Su-preme Court.

The Indian Hill Board ofEducation says, yes, it will needto give some money back to tax-payers. Just how much, youmight say, is the $5 million ques-tion – one that is being workedon by attorneys representingthe Board and the group, calledthe Committee for Responsible

School Spending. At issue is a decision made by

the Indian Hill Board of Educa-tion in December 2009 to move1.25 mills of inside millage tofund permanent improve-ments. The state allows for aninside millage move for operat-ing expenses without a publicvote.

The committee, whichformed shortly after the insidemillage move was approved bythe school board, said such amove was unnecessary sincethe district at the time had an es-timated $24 million in its cashreserve fund. The millage movewas expected to generate $1.7million annually for the district

and cost the own-er of a $500,000home an addi-tional $218.75 peryear starting in2011.

The commit-tee fought tohave the tax in-

crease overturned by filing ap-peals with both the Ohio Boardof Tax Appeals and the Ohio Su-preme Court.

After several years in litiga-tion, the Ohio Supreme Courtruled that the additional reve-nue from the outside mills wasnot required and that the in-creased revenue “padded” thedistrict’s surplus.

Fred Sanborn, a member ofthe Committee for ResponsibleSchool Spending, said after sev-eral months the committee hasyet to see any progress regard-ing a refund and that the schoolboard is essentially “stonewall-ing” any type of resolution. San-born said the district owes tax-payers an estimated $5.2 mil-lion plus interest. He said this isbased on an analysis of insidemillage tax receipts from 2011to 2014.

Further, he said this amountwas determined with the assis-tance of the Hamilton CountyAuditor’s Office and a certifiedpublic accountant representingthe committee.

District officials have de-ferred comment in the midst oflegal proceedings.

However, board memberElizabeth Johnston said, “We’redetermined to follow the letterof the law. We will continue to dowhat we need to do as directedby the Supreme Court.”

Steve Friedman, an attorneywith Squire Patton Boggs,which is representing the dis-trict, said the school boardwants to resolve the issue butthat delays have resulted fromanother lawsuit that the Com-mittee for Responsible SchoolSpending has pending in the

The Columbia TownshipBoard of Trustees may ask resi-dents to approve a waste levy inNovember that could produce$550,000 or more annually, pri-marily for the collection oftrash, leaves and brush.

The township has a 3.5-millwaste levy that expires at the

end of the year.Should the

board of trusteesdecide to pursuea new waste levy,Columbia Town-ship Administra-tor Mike Lemonsaid it likelywould be in the 5-

mill range.“The increase is to offset loss

of revenue caused by the state,new equipment needs and pro-jected cost increases over thenext three years,” Lemon said.

“Trustees will first pass aresolution asking for certifica-tion of revenue by the countyauditor in April and then vote onwhether to proceed in May.”

Columbia Township will askthe county auditor to figurewhat a waste levy in the 5-millrange would generate for thetownship and cost taxpayers.

The township expects itwould generate about $550,000to $575,000 a year and cost tax-payers about $175 to $178 per$100,000 valuation of theirhomes a year, Lemon said.

“Remember, these are onlyestimates,” Lemon said.

“We have to get the officialnumbers from the auditor,which could alter our planslightly.“We have to get the offi-cial numbers from the auditor,which could alter our planslightly.”

“The board does notdisagree that a refund isdue, but the board doesnot agree with the amountthat has been requested,”Friedman said. Friedmansaid the specific amountof the refund was still be-ing determined.

In January, the schoolboard announced that thedistrict would suspendcollection of an additionalproperty tax associatedwith the inside millage.Specifically, the districtwould refrain from col-lecting 1.25 mills for thepermanent improvementfund.

This change was incor-porated into the propertytax bill that went out inJanuary.

Manager Chris Daegerwould love to expand col-lections, pave paths andincrease manpower at theStanley M. Rowe Arbore-tum.

For now, Daeger’s hop-ing you can help fund theIndian Hill arboretum’sbasic expenses by patron-izing its annual plant salethe weekend of April 24and 25 and by joining orrenewing your member-ship in the “Friends ofRowe Arboretum” boost-er group.

Members will get firstcrack at the items for salefrom 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. Fri-day, April 24.

The saleis open tothe publicfrom 9 a.m.to noon Sat-urday,April 25.

“Therewill be an

assortment of trees,shrubs, perennials, andannuals for sale, and therewill be some great usedgardening items, largehouseplants, and even do-nated succulents and cac-tus specimens - some rareones, too - from the estateof Miggie Jacobs,” Daeg-er said.

“Peruse our used-bookdepartment, all new offer-ings and some collectibleissues.”

The plant sale will beconducted at Rowe Arbo-retum at 4600 MuchmoreRoad, which is open dailyfrom dawn to dusk.

As always, admissionis free, but the arboretumaccepts donations.

“The village looks for-ward to Rowe Arbore-tum’s plant sale everyyear,” said Indian HillCity Manager Dina Min-neci. “The plant sale is along-standing and well-known tradition whichhelps support a nine-acre,aesthetically pleasing vil-lage gem that was so gen-erously donated by theRowe family in 1926.”

All of the plant saleproceeds go toward themaintenance and im-provement of the arbore-tum, Minneci said.

Daeger said Rowe Ar-boretum, which is openyear-round is an officialAmerican Conifer SocietyReference Garden - thefirst in Central region thatincludes 15 states andparts of Canada, as well asone of the first in the coun-try.

“We have some collec-tions that are one of akind, too, thanks to dona-tions from the late Dr.Clark West, such as thethird-generation, thread-leaf Arborvitae seedlingsand the Colorado sprucewitch’s broom seedlingcollection, Daeger said.

“These alone can showyou how many new culti-vars can be discovered,usually something thatcan only be found in unac-

cessible private nurseriesor research plots,” Daeg-er said.

Rowe Arboretum waswilled to Indian Hill byStanley M. Rowe Sr. andhis wife, Dorothy Snow-den Rowe, who foundedthe arboretum in 1926.

It passed to the villagein 1987, but Indian Hill nolonger subsidizes it. RoweArboretum now is operat-ed as a non-profit organi-zation and supported byfundraisers and an en-dowment.

“We do hope to be self-supporting to the point tobe able to cover all ourcosts and a few items onour wish list,” Daegersaid.

Daeger welcomessponsorship of Rowe Ar-boretum’s projects andimprovements that couldcome in the form of estateplanning or gifts of otherassets.

“From a single newspecimen to honor some-one to sponsoring a capi-tal-improvement project,we would be glad to dis-cuss the possibilities,”Daeger said.

Phase two constructionis underway at SummitPark and the city of BlueAsh plans to move up partof phase three.

Mike Schuster, of MSAArchitects, gave an up-date on Summit Park’sconstruction to Blue Ashcity council.

“The playground hasbeen a huge success. It hasbeen well receivedthroughout the entire re-gion,” Schuster said.

The playground wasthe main focus of phaseone. The communitybuilding is the main focusof phase two, which alsoincludes a glass canopy, abeer garden and phasetwo of stage construction.

Brown Dog Café willmove from 5893 PfeifferRoad to the communitybuilding. The restaurantwill have a similar menuto its current location, butwith an emphasis on wine,said Keith Hall, fromMSA. There will be a fullservice bar, booths, flexi-ble seating by the win-dows facing the greatlawn and a private diningroom.

Hall said Brown Dog isconsidering an open kitch-en and putting in a brickpizza oven outside by thepatio bar.

The rest of the commu-nity building will be forthe city of Blue Ash. Thebasement will be the con-trol center for the park,with all the equipment forelectrical and sound oper-

ation. There will also bestorage space in the base-ment. On the main floorthere will be an elevator, amultipurpose communityroom, support space andstaff offices.

“We are projecting toturn over the buildingfrom construction toBrown Dog on July 1 andabout fall 2015 for an open-ing. It is going to go prettyfast once we get it going,”Hall said.

Phase two is scheduledto be completed in thesummer.

Hall said the secondbuilding, which was origi-nally part of phase three,will be a mirror image ofthe community building,just without the basement.Hall suggested moving upthe construction of thesecond building into phasetwo.

“The second building istruly a restaurant build-ing with a little space forus. We believe it will havemore casual dining, may-be a Starbucks or a deli orbakery,” City ManagerDavid Waltz said.

Moving the construc-tion of the second buildingwould add $2.5 millionmore to the cost of phasetwo. Each phase has beenbudgeted between $10 and$12 million. Summit Park’stotal construction budgetis $40 million.

Hall said the buildingwill be built as a “cold darkshell.” Exterior walls willbe put up; what tenantswill need to operate can beadded later without thewhole area being closed

for construction again.“We absolutely can af-

ford to start this now. Weare in a very good positionto spend cash on it nowand we will still have acomfortable amount offunds,” Waltz said.

Waltz said he will draftan ordinance to officiallymove up the constructionof the second building.Council was scheduled tovote on it at its April 9meeting.

Students at Indian HillMiddle School are build-ing roller coasters andwindmills.

These projects, albeitat scaled-down versions,are part of a new Science,Technology, Engineeringand Math, or STEM, pro-gram at the school.

“The whole point of theSTEM program is to to en-hance the curriculum,”said Amanda Sopko, coor-dinator of the STEM pro-gram and sixth-grademath teacher.

The STEM programwas introduced at themiddle school this schoolyear. Sixth- and seventh-graders were selected toparticipate in the pro-gram based on their mathand science scores onstate tests. Forty six stu-dents are participating.

“I like doing these pro-jects that we generallydon’t get to do in the reg-ular classes,” said sixth-grader Vandita Rastogi.

Some of the studentsare building Lego roboticsas part of the program.

The projects vary de-pending on the grade lev-

el, but have ranged fromdesigning a roller coasterout of paper to flying min-iature parachutes.

“We try to make thechallenges apply to realworld problems,” sev-enth-grade science teach-er Kelly Hartings said.

“A lot of the studentsdidn’t know what engi-neering is or what (pro-fessionals) do in those ca-reers,” Hartings said.

Seventh-grade mathteacher Ashley Morrisonsaid many leaders in busi-ness and industry areseeking employees whohave a working knowl-edge of STEM principlesand who are able to applythese principles to realworld problems.

Sopko said a goal is tocontinue with the STEMprogram next school year.She said plans are to ex-pand it to include eighth-graders as well.

This game encour-ages students to get engaged inthe content, with a competitivetwist, all while teaching themthe fundamentals of economicsand topics on saving and in-vesting. The Stock MarketGame is proven to improvemath scores of students.

The Ursuline students wereinvited to ring the opening bell,which began the annual awardsluncheon.

The Ursuline stu-dents were then recognized asStock Market Game “Traders-in-Training,” as they were ac-knowledged for coming inthird place across Ohio.

“The Stock Market Gamewas a very beneficial experi-ence,” Welch said. “It showedus how the stock market worksin a real-world setting. Welearn about it in class, but with-out this experience, we\couldhead out and risk losing a lot ofmoney. It made something thatcan be intimidating very ap-proachable.”

You’ve heard the old saying“one person’s misfortune isanother person’s blessing.”

That happenedto us this weekwhen our neigh-bor Bobby, wholives down theroad, called andsaid he had alarge ash treethat had died. Afamiliar story inour area. Frank,Bobby and ourboys made quickwork of the tree.

We’ll be glad next winter thatwe took the time in the springto get it cut and stacked.

Food is like that, too. Rightnow we’re marking rows in thegarden for produce we’ll plantnow and harvest in fall. Andthere’s a renaissance of sortsgoing on with canning andpreserving. All part of theawareness of eating healthyand controlling what’s in thefood we eat. So as we go intowarmer weather, this columnwill be a good resource foreasy home canned goods, likejellies, jams, salsas, vinegars,etc. If you have a favorite,share and I’ll publish it.

Healthy, tasty reasons to gonuts with spring recipes

Rita HeikenfeldRITA’S KITCHEN

Easy candied nuts

Spring is the time to take pantry inventory. I was doing just that when I ran across ajar of pecans that were near the expiration date. I tossed some in a nonstick skillet andmade a batch of candied pecans for our salad. They turned out so nice that I wanted togive you the recipe, too.

3 tablespoons packed light or dark brown sugar - I used light1 tablespoon water1 teaspoon vanilla1/4 teaspoon salt2 cups pecan halves

Mix together sugar, water, vanilla, and salt. It will look grainy. Set aside.Toast pecans in dry skillet for several minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burn-

ing. They’re done when they give off a nice aroma. Drizzle sugar mixture on top, stirringas you drizzle. Keep stirring until nuts are all coated. This takes about a minute. Immedi-ately spread nuts on sprayed pan in single layer to cool. They’ll look sticky but coating willharden and nuts can be broken apart after they cool completely. Store in airtight contain-er at room temperature.

Tip: A wonderful appetizer or ice cream topping, as well.

Chicken and black bean enchiladas

One of my students told me her daughterenjoys reading my recipes. “You have a new gener-ation of readers”, she said. That made me feelpretty good as that’s been my goal all along, toget everyone cooking together. Since her daughterlikes Mexican foods, here’s one of our favorites forher to try.

1-1/4 pounds chicken tenderloins, thinly sliced4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (leave

drippings in skillet)2 teaspoons minced garlic or more to taste24 oz. Picante sauce16 oz. black beans, drained, rinsed and

drained1 red or green bell pepper, diced1 generous teaspoon cumin or more to taste -

I usually add moreSalt to taste1 generous cup thinly sliced green onions,

both white and green parts12 flour tortillas, 6-inch size16 oz. Mexican cheese blend, shredded

Garnish: Tomato, sour cream, shredded ice-berg, guacamole, or diced avocado, more Picantesauce or salsa, shredded cheese.

Cook chicken and garlic until chicken iscooked. Stir in 1/2 cup Picante sauce, beans, bellpepper, cumin and salt. Simmer until thickened,stirring occasionally. Stir in green onions andbacon. Taste and add more Picante sauce, cumin,etc. if desired.

Spoon about 1/4 cup down center of eachtortilla and sprinkle on a heaping 2 tablespoonscheese. Roll up and place seam side down in asprayed 9x13 casserole.

Pour rest of Picante sauce over enchiladasand sprinkle with rest of cheese. Tent with foil andbake in preheated 350 degree oven until hotthroughout, about 30 minutes or so.

Serve topped with garnishes.Tip: Add a cup or so of frozen shoe peg corn

with the beans.

“I do not think I have everbeen involved in an AprilFools’ Day prank.

“But Sports Illustrated gotme and millions more in their4/1/85 issue. They had notedsports scribe George Plimp-ton write of an unbelievablerookie pitcher Sid Finch. Sidhad a fastball timed waybeyond any pitcher then ornow. He was being kept un-der wraps by the New YorkMets, who played along withthe farce.

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONA proposal to raise the speedlimit along the Ohio Turnpikeand rural freeways to 75 mphwas recently turned down bythe state legislature. Wouldyou support such a change if itcomes up again? Why or whynot?

Every week we ask readers aquestion they can reply to via email.Send your answers tormaloney@community press.comwith Ch@troom in the subject line.

Transparency and account-ability are qualities that citi-zens should expect from theirgovernment.

In an era of increasing ac-cess to information, it is impor-tant that our state governmentis open about how it spendsOhioans’ tax dollars. I amproud to have recently intro-duced legislation in the OhioHouse with my colleague StateRep. Mike Dovilla that wouldincrease government transpar-ency and allow Ohioans to keeptabs on how the state govern-ment is spending their money.

House Bill 46 would requirethe Ohio Treasurer of State toestablish the Ohio State Gov-

ernment Ex-penditureDatabase. Thisonline, search-able databasewould includeinformationabout expendi-tures made bystate entitiesduring eachfiscal year.These state

entities, such as the GeneralAssembly, the Ohio SupremeCourt, statewide elected of-fices, and executive depart-ments, would provide monthlyexpenditure data to the Trea-surer of State.

Monthly updates will ensurethat Ohioans have the mostcurrent information possibleregarding their government’sspending.

The information on thisdatabase will be provided tothe public free of charge, in anorganized and easily-acces-sible manner. In the interest oftransparency, it is not enoughfor this information to be avail-able. It must also be easilysearchable, with the ability tosort and filter the data intorelevant categories.

As your state representa-tive, I take my responsibility tolook after your tax dollars veryseriously.

HB 46 will provide Ohioanswith the opportunity to learnmore about their state govern-ment and how it spends theirmoney.

The bill has been voted outof the House State Govern-ment committee and I expectthe full House to vote on itsoon.

If you have any input orquestions on HB 46, or anyother state government relatedissue, I encourage you to at-tend my district office hoursnext month:

Monday, April 6, 10 a.m. to11 a.m., Blue Ash Library, 4911Cooper Road

Monday, April 6, 1 p.m. to 2

p.m., Forest Park Library, 655Waycross Road

If you are unable to attendmy office hours, please do nothesitate to contact my officewith suggestions of how I canbetter serve as your state rep-resentative. By working to-gether, we can make Ohio abetter place to live, work, andraise a family. I look forwardto hearing from you.

Much has been said of lateabout immigrants voting ille-gally in Ohio.

As an immigrant, this in-terests me for a number ofreasons. Firstly, when I ar-rived here as a legal resident,my children were taught allabout “no taxation withoutrepresentation.”

As I was paying all my tax-es, including local propertytaxes, I inquired if I could votefor anything. I was asked if Iwas a US citizen. I answeredno, and was told I could not.End of story. When I became aU.S. citizen I was given de-tailed information on how toregister to vote, and did so,easily.

So what is the moral here?Well, first we should be teach-ing our children “no taxationwithout representation” shouldbe taught with rather a largeasterisk after it (i.e. “Exceptresidents of D.C. and legalforeign residents) Secondly,Mr. John Husted and everyBoard of Elections in Ohioshould be asking the rightquestions – and checking theanswers. The problem is notonly that these people are vot-ing – we know – it is how theygot on the voting roles in thefirst place. Someone in a posi-tion to know better signed

them up.However,

apart fromquestioning thecompetence ofMr. Husted toenforce exist-ing laws, weshould be ask-ing why he isnot using re-sources tomake voting

easier, by opening more pollingplaces, why he is not cam-paigning vociferously to endthe ridiculous Gerrymander-ing in Ohio and why he is nottrying to bring voting into the21st Century in Ohio by in-vesting in fully electronic vot-ing. Instead he is zeroing in ona problem that is, by compari-son, small, no matter how im-portant. What about these oth-er issues?

The answer of course lies inthe politics. He is answering tohis masters in the GOP whowant to limit the voting powerof those who traditionally voteagainst them: minorities, im-migrants, even students. If youdoubt me, look at the Gerry-mandered map of Ohio (andthe recent effort in Texas todisenfranchise students). In2012, the GOP won 12 of 16Ohio seats in the House (or 75

percent), but garnered only 52percent of all the votes cast. Isthis Democracy? Where is Mr.Husted’s outrage over this?

I absolutely agree that oneillegal vote cast is one toomany. However, I deplore thegrandstanding and politics,which have seeped into a proc-ess that should be impartial.

It is the states’ duty to en-sure that all legal votes arecounted and matter.

Instead, we have a con-scious effort to sideline thosewho do not vote for the GOP inOhio and other states. I knowDemocrats play the gerryman-dering game as well. It shouldbe outlawed; I think most peo-ple would agree.

Washington should reflectthe nation, and it does not:neither politically nor econom-ically. It would refreshing –and a sign of genuine leader-ship – if Mr. Husted took thelead in electoral process, in-stead of being in the humiliat-ing position of henchman, re-sponsible for the application ofparty ideology.

In 2015, People WorkingCooperatively is celebrating 40years of making critical homerepairs and providing energyconservation and weather-ization services to the low-income, elderly and disabledcitizens of Greater Cincinnati.

This spring, we are encour-aging homeowners to use thefollowing tips to make theirhomes more efficient, to helpprevent flooding, and to con-serve energy and resources.

There are a few simplethings you can do on your ownto improve or maintain theefficiency of your major homeappliances.

For example, while water-ing your garden, spray the dustoff your outdoor central airunit-cleaning the fins protectsyour unit and allows it to run

more efficient-ly.

Checkingyour furnacefilter monthlyhelps yourfurnace to stayin great shape,and it’s animportantsafety mea-sure as well.Additionally,

dusting off vents during springcleaning and ensuring thatthey are not blocked by furni-ture helps in regulating yourhome’s temperature appropri-ately, without having yourheating and cooling systemsrunning constantly.

The Tristate has experi-enced its fair share of rainfalland flooding this year, and the

season has only just begun. Toprevent flooding in your homethis spring, make sure guttersand downspouts are clear ofleaves and debris.

You can also check yourdownspouts to ensure that theyare directing water flow awayfrom your foundation. Thishelps to prevent additionalgroundwater from reachingyour basement.

Energy conservation isimportant for homeowners toconsider, because it saves mon-ey and prevents wasteful useof resources. One simple thinghomeowners can do to saveenergy is to open the doors andwindows to create a crossbreeze during the day ratherthan using central air condi-tioning. Also, using ceiling fanson warm days can reduce the

temperature feeling in a roomby four degrees, and it usesless energy than a central airsystem. If you prefer to keepyour system running, savemoney by lowering the ther-mostat during the day andsetting it back one to four de-grees at night.

You can also use the seasonto your advantage. A springbreeze makes it convenient tohang dry your clothes outdoorson a nice day, and longer day-light hours allow you to openthe blinds and curtains forlight. Turn off lights in roomsnot being used and dust lightbulbs. You’d be surprised atthe increased light they giveoff.

Last but not least, get out-side! Save electricity by ven-turing outdoors during nice

weather. Cincinnati has morethan 100 parks and greenspaces comprising more than5,000 acres. Walking or bikingrather than taking your car isanother great way to conserveenergy and resources.

When it comes to weather-ization, taking a proactiveapproach can go a long way.These are just a few ways tonot only save money but toconserve energy and re-sources.

We encourage homeownersto evaluate their individualneeds, and incorporate some orall of these tips in order tokeep their homes safe, secure,and running efficiently.

Like many of their offer-ings, Moeller High School hashad tremendous success inboys volleyball. The Crusadershave state championship tro-phies from 1997, 2004, 2005,2007, 2009 and 2012.

They were Division I statesemifinalists in 2013 and coachMatt McLaughlin is looking toget them back in the state huntthis season after finishing sec-ond in the Greater CatholicLeague-South last season.Moeller finished behind St. Xa-vier and tied with Elder at 3-3in the league and 18-8 overall.

Returning starters forMoeller are senior libero ChrisHackman, senior outside hitterJustin Deyhle, senior middleNick Wright, junior middle Ja-son Bruggemann and junioroutside hitter David Wernery.Junior right-side hitter Connor

McNamara is always expectedto be a factor.

Hackman made GCL-Southfirst team last year as a junior.

McLaughlin, coming backfrom an off-seasonappendectomy himself, isproud of his team’s off-seasonwork ethic.

“We added conditioning toout off-season program and Ithink our players have comeinto the season in great shape,”he said. “They’re a very athlet-ic group of players and I thinkit’s going to pay dividends forthem. They’re push them-selves in practice and are hun-gry after a bit of a roller-coast-er season last year. They pushthe each other in practice andare setting the bar high as ateam.”

Also on the Moeller rosterare defensive specialist John-ny Rickert, defensive special-ist Connor Peed, defensive spe-cialist Harry Savarese, setter

Ryan Frank, setter Chad Mus-tard and defensive specialistLogan Sheets. McLaughlin isassisted by Kevin Brandner

and Mike Chandler and studentcoaches Gus Vogel and BradBuller.

FIRST PASS AT 2015 BOYS VOLLEYBALL

The only place to go is up inthe Greater Catholic League-South for Moeller HighSchool’s tennis team as St. Xa-vier has had a stranglehold onthe championship dating backto when The Beatles were stillplaying concerts (1965).

The Crusaders tied for sec-ond in the league at 3-3 and were14-5 overall last season undercoach Alex Thompson. Theyhave had four consecutive win-ning seasons.

The roster is young with fivejuniors and two sophomores.Juniors Michael Tepe, KelleyPeter and Alec Hoelker are re-turning starters along withsophomore Max Berky. Sopho-more Michael Keyser alsoshould figure into the equationand juniors Joe Burns and Jus-tin Cashman are also on thesquad.

Tepe was GCL-South secondteam in singles in 2014, going 4-2in the league and 17-3 overall insecond singles. Berky playedthird singles and was 4-2 in theleague and 12-6 overall. Peter,Keyser and Hoelker were main-ly doubles players a year ago.

“This is a very fun, youngteam who really wants to win,”Thompson said. “They havebeen putting in a ton of workthat will hopefully pay off.”

Moeller returns after theirspring break to take on Spring-field April 13.

Marc Baverman movedfrom junior varsity to varsityhead coach this season at Ma-deira. Baverman said the Mus-tangs return the entire teamfrom the year before. He saidthat, so far, the competition of adeep roster has served themwell. What may be even morebeneficial is the last year’s lackof success and the bitter tasteleft in their mouth.

“Last year was disappoint-ing,” Baverman said. “We had acouple injuries and were shorton bodies. I think we were 7-7and lost all of our league match-es. I’m optimistic we’ll be a littlebetter this year with strength innumbers and a lot of seniors.”

Senior Travis Freytag, athree-sport athlete at Madeira(also plays basketball and golf),plays first singles and he’s afour-year varsity tennis player.Baverman admitted the rest of

the singles slots are open to ro-tation, but expect sophomorePeter Baldan and senior JakeLorusso in the mix.

The first doubles team is anexperienced duo in seniorsZach Zeisler and Jake Harring-ton. At second doubles, there’sfour guys competing for twospots, and all four can help out ifneeded. They are seniors RobbyElkin, Ethan Fitter, Will Thawand freshman Jenner Kane.

“I’m excited about the com-petition we’ve had, I think it’smade them better,” Bavermansaid. “Having so many guysaround the same skill level isgonna help them when we getinto match play.”

Baverman would like to see alittle more consistency, saying“there’s flashes where they’relooking really good but it’s tooup and down.”

After winning four consecu-tive Cincinnati Hills Leaguechampionships, the Indian HillHigh School boys tennis teamhad another successful seasonin 2014, but finished second to aveteran Wyoming team.

Coach Marc Young is back in2015 with a lineup led by juniorAlex Warstler, a state tourna-

ment qualifier in his freshmanand sophomore years. Warstleris a nationally ranked, year-round competitor.

Also back for the Braves isthe veteran doubles team ofsenior Graydon Cowan and ju-nior Rohit Musti. Expected tocontribute as sophomores areMilan Bhandari, Christiano Li-

ma and Pablo Guzman and add-ing depth is junior Durham Col-ohan and sophomore MrinalSingh.

Newcomers are freshmanAndrew Pregel and seniortransfer Ryan Snyder. Pregel isa ranked 16 and under player inthe USTA Midwest.

Indian Hill was a quarter-fi-nalist in the Ohio Tennis Coach-es Association team tourna-ment in 2014 and Young wouldlike to surpass that and havestate representation in singlesand doubles this spring.

“We have a very demandingschedule, facing great teamsfrom Cincinnati, from centraland northern Ohio and fromLouisville,” Young said. “Ifthese Braves can come together

as a team, I believe we cancompete with the best.We’re looking forward tothe challenge.”

Ahead for Indian Hill isa home match with Wal-nut Hills April 10.

Cincinnati CountryDay won the Division IIsingles, doubles and teamstate titles last year.

Asher Hirsch, then ajunior, picked up his sec-ond consecutive singlestitle and the pairing ofPatrick Wildman andKevin Yu won the doublestitle.

Much of the Indians’roster, including Hirsch,Shaheel Mitra, VishaalNalagatla, Will Cohen,Chase Tholke, LeonardBehrens and Yu, returnsfor a shot at defendingthose titles.

“We have a lot to live upto this year,” CCD headcoach Matt Dektas said.“It’s going to be a tall or-der.”

Sophomore J.J. Wolf,

who lost to Hirsch in thestate final, is a bit of a wildcard this season.

He won the boys’ 16-and-under title at the U.S.Tennis Association Win-ter National Champion-ships Jan. 2 in Scottsdale,Ariz., and has been play-ing in California in the In-ternational Spring Cham-pionship with the Interna-tional Tennis Federation.

Wolf has until April 13to decide if he will play forhis school. That’s the OH-SAA’s cut-off date fornon-interscholastic com-petition.

If he does suit up forthe Indians, Wolf andHirsch become contend-ers to meet in the state fi-nal again this season.

“Having them both onthe same team is a goodproblem to have,” Dektassaid.

The coach also seessome of his players whohave been role players inyears past stepping to theforefront, adding that heexpects Yu to be “a majorcontributor again this sea-son.”

“I enjoy working witheach and every one of thegirls and I couldn’t havedone it without our threeseniors, Erica Brady, An-gelika Serran, and Kourt-ney Russell. They really

helped meout andshowedtrue leader-shipthroughoutthe entireseason,”said Laine.

Laine, the art instructorat Holmes Primary andAmity Elementary, hasdanced since age 5. Infourth grade, she joined acompetitive dance studiowhere she spent hours pre-paring for seven to 11

dance routines each week.Laine attended Miami Uni-versity and joined a com-pany called Dance Thea-tre, where she danced aswell as served as the pub-licity chair and vice presi-dent.

For two years, Lainetaught dance at an area ju-nior high school, but sheknew she wanted to workwith Deer Park students.

Coming off a fun seasonperforming at the varsityboys basketball games, theDeer Park dancers were

looking forward to the“Off the Edge” competi-tion at Mt. Healthy. Lainesaid all the girls workedhard preparing for theevent, where they compet-ed in jazz, kick, and hiphop.

“I’m so proud of howmuch the girls have im-proved since the first timeI saw them dance back inNovember. They’re danc-es continued to get strong-er at every basketballgame they performed at,”said Laine.

Carfax, which sellsvehicle history reports,estimates about 36 mil-lion registered cars andtrucks currently haveoutstanding safety re-calls.

In some cases, Con-sumer Action reports,parts needed to repair adefect are in short supplyleaving potentially dan-gerous vehicles on theroad indefinitely. Some-times recall notices don’treach owners becausethey have moved or theowners don’t get therepairs done becausethey may not feel therecalls are very impor-tant.

While manufacturersare required by the gov-ernment to notify con-sumers of safety defects

Although many con-sumers don’t do it, it’smore important thanever to have a used vehi-cle checked out by acertified mechanic andlook for safety defectsprior to a purchase.

You see, while it isillegal to sell a new carwith an unrepaired safe-ty recall, there is no fed-

eral law prohibiting thesale of used cars withunrepaired safety de-fects.

You may recall tens ofmillions of cars wererecalled for safety de-fects in just the pastyear. Defects range fromexploding airbags todangerously defectiveignition switches. Yet,

many of those vehiclesare being offered for saleright now even thoughthe repairs have not beenmade. In fact, about 25percent of car owners donot get their vehiclesrepaired within 18months of a safety recall,according to the NationalHighway Traffic SafetyAdministration.

and per-form re-pairs, theyonly payfor thoserepairs for10 yearsfrom thetime avehicle isdeter-mined tohave a

safety defect. Of course,unrepaired vehicles notonly put the driver andpassengers at risk butothers on the road aswell.

Those looking to buy aused vehicle should alsocheck the government’swebsite, SaferCar.gov.There, consumers canlook up a car’s vehicleidentification number to

see if there’s an unre-paired recall beforeagreeing to buy the vehi-cle.

No matter where youshop to buy a used car,either from a nationalretailer or a local dealer-ship, you still need to getthat vehicle’s VIN num-ber checked with thenational database to seeif there’s an open recallon the particular vehicleyou are looking to buy.

Incidentally, all themajor car rental compa-nies have now pledged tostop renting or sellingunrepaired recalled carsto consumers.

The agency did not is-sue a single smog alert dur-ing the 2014 ozone season.Favorable weather, indus-trial pollution controls andcitizens practicing conser-vation habits combined tohelp keep ozone below theUnhealthy for SensitiveGroups level.

One of the agency’smost recognized publicinitiatives is its Idle Freeprogram. Multiple schoolsand public services joined

in 2014. The agency pro-vides free signs and bro-chures, as well as educa-tional and communicationassistance to schools andother entities that wish toimplement an Idle Freecampaign.

The agency would liketo acknowledge the follow-ing local organizations forgoing idle free in 2014:

Cincinnati Country DaySchool;

Being idle free is the

easiest, no-cost way that acitizen can help with airquality. The agency workswith schools, communi-ties, businesses, parks andlibraries to encourage mo-torists to turn off their ve-hicles when not driving.People often idle whenpicking up or dropping offchildren, at fast food andbank drive-thrus and whilechecking their phoneswhile parked. Idling gener-ates unnecessary air pollu-tion while wasting gaso-line, and consequently,money.

To implement an idle-free campaign, please con-tact the agency at 513-513-7754 or visit southwest-ohioair.org.

When residents at a lo-cal senior living commu-nity see salmon cro-quettes on the menu, theyare all smiles. AmberPark Chef James Hasen-kamp has added a twist toan old family recipe thathas become one of the sen-iors’ favorites.

“I’ve taken my Grand-mother Carmen’s originalrecipe, added a special ca-per sauce and adjustedsome of the other ingredi-ents,” said Hasenkamp,who goes by the nicknameFred. “Our residents real-ly look forward to it andalso to her meatloaf, date-nut bread and pineappleupside down cake.”

Hasenkamp also en-courages residents to pro-vide their own family rec-ipes, which he features onthe daily menu. Popularresident recipes includean old German saurbra-ten, potato dumplings andMiriam’s carrot cake.

“Family recipes are agreat way to go and a lot offun too,” he said. “Resi-

dents give them to us on aregular basis and someare more than a hundredyears old. “

Born in Belgium andraised in California, Ha-senkamp began workingin the restaurant businessat age 16. He became ahead chef at 25 andworked in restaurants,country clubs and dining

venues in Northern Cali-fornia, Austin, Texas, andthe Cincinnati area, in-cluding the Vineyard Caféin Hyde Park. Hasen-kamp then transitionedinto senior living dining.About five years ago hebecame the chef at AmberPark, a Brookdale com-munity at 3801 GalbraithRoad, Deer Park, that pro-

vides independent living,assisted living and de-mentia care.

“Sharing recipes is areal treat for everyoneand I absolutely love thesenior living dining envi-ronment and making a dif-ference in the lives of ourresidents,” said Hasen-kamp, 42, who lives in Er-langer.
