UNION TOWNSHIP – Fred-dy’s Frozen Custard & Steakbur-gers has opened its first Ohio lo-cation in Clermont County’sUnion Township.

The restaurant opened Oct.20 at 3792 Waterford Parkwayjust off Ohio Pike in UnionTownship. A second ClermontCounty location at 907 Business28 in Miami Township that has aMilford mailing address is in theearly planning stages, and athird restaurant is planned for9301 Winton Road in Cincinnati.

The fast-casual restaurantfranchise offers a variety of me-nu options, including leanground beef steakburgers, Vi-enna Beef hot dogs, and shoe-string fries. It’s known for itssignature desserts, includingfreshly-churned chocolate orvanilla custard that’s smootherand richer tasting than icecream. The frozen custard ismade fresh throughout the dayat each location.

The 3,213-square-foot free-standing Union Township Fred-dy’s seats 100, with additionalpatio seating and drive-thru ser-vice. Hours at the Union Town-ship restaurant are 10:30 a.m.-10p.m. Sunday-Thursday and 10:30a.m.-11 p.m. Friday and Satur-day.

“We chose this site because ithas many of the features forwhich we look, including high-way proximity,” said Matt Saun-ders, head of development forPSP Foods, Freddy’s franchisee.“We feel (Union Township) is a

great fit for the family-friendlyatmosphere at Freddy’s.”

PSP Foods and managementgroup, RGT Management Inc.broke ground on the Freddy’s inUnion Township in June, Saun-ders said. That restaurant hasan Amelia mailing address.

“As soon as we have our(Union Township) location open,operating smoothly and doingwell, we hope to continue our

area growth over the next sever-al years,” Saunders said.

At a recent meeting of the Mi-ami Township Board of Trusteesin Clermont County, Zoning Ad-ministrator Brian Elliff said hehas been in discussion with thegeneral contractor for a Fred-dy’s location there and antici-pates an application for a re-model of the former Business 28Taco Bell that has a Milford

mailing address. That Taco Bellwill be vacated when a newlyconstructed Taco Bell opensnext door.

The Union Township Fred-dy’s is the 166th such restaurantin 23 states. Twenty-four Fred-dy’s restaurants are under con-struction in various parts of theU.S., and 15 of those are sched-uled to open before the end ofthe year, Saunders said.

World War II veteran FreddySimon opened the first Freddy’sin Wichita, Kansas in the 1950s,according to the company’swebsite. As it does today, thatrestaurant offered a menu ofcomfort food built around asteakburger.

New steakburger restaurant now open in Clermont CountyCindy [email protected]

CINDY SCHROEDER/THE COMMUNITY PRESS

Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers is now open in Clermont County’s Union Township. Future sites are planned for Clermont County’s MiamiTownship and Cincinnati.

Matthew B. Beamer andthree other people will squareoff Tuesday, Nov. 3, for theUnion Township Board of Trust-ees seat now held by Beamer.

Challenging Beamer are Jen-nifer M. Imholt, Joe Wolfer andwrite-in candidate Chris Walk-er.

The winner will begin a four-year term in January and joinincumbents Chairman JohnMcGraw and Vice ChairmanLloyd Acres, whose terms runthrough 2017, on the board oftrustees.

Here’s a look at the candi-dates and their answers to thefollowing two questions, forwhich they were allowed up to100 words per answer.

1. What are the issues facingUnion Township and how wouldyou handle them?

2. Why do you want to serveon the board of trustees andwhat qualifications do you havethat make you a good choice fortrustee?

» Beamer, 44, is a financialplanner.

He was appointed to theUnion Township Board of Trust-ees in 2006 and elected to four-year terms in 2007 and 2011.

1. “Recent cuts have reduced

the revenueUnion Townshipwill receive bymore than $2 mil-lion per year. Myfocus will be onjob creation forthe taxpayers.

“Over the lastfour years, we

have added hundreds of newjobs. Recently, a Gordmans re-tail store opened across fromthe Jungle Jim’s InternationalMarket.

“A new movie theater will beopening later this fall, and thenew West Clermont High is un-der construction.

“I believe the residents needa leader that has a plan tostrengthen our local economyby adding new jobs to help easethe burden on the taxpayers.”

2. “I believe I have the visionand experience necessary forour growing needs in UnionTownship. I am the only conser-vative candidate that is en-dorsed by Cincinnati Right toLife PAC.

“I voted in favor of establish-ing a five-year budget for ourtownship as the economy start-ed to decline. I voted to sell va-cant properties that were nolonger needed, which returnedover $900,000 to the generalfund.

“Due to thesetight controls ofour tax dollars,we still can pro-vide the basicservices that theresidents havebecome to ex-pect, with no in-crease in taxes.”

» Imholt, 59, is a retiredProcter & Gamble finance andaccounting manager now work-ing part-time as a Mercy Hospi-tal registrar.

She has not held elective po-litical office.

1. “The heroin epidemic. Wemust educate the young on thedangers of drugs.

“I would like to work togeth-er with the police, courts anddrug-rehab facilities and askformer addicts to come to theschools and give their story onthe struggles they faced.

“Union Township needsmore sidewalks and/or bikepaths. It is nearly impossible togo anywhere without a car.

“It is a dangerous situationwith cars passing pedestrians at40 miles per hour. I would like towork on getting private, feder-al, state and local funding to cre-ate walking/biking paths as An-derson Township has done with-out raising taxes.”

2. “I believe my experience

at Procter &Gamble willserve our com-munity well. Ihave 17 years’experience incost and finan-cial analysis.Blessed with theopportunity to

retire early, I want to give backto the community in a meaning-ful way. Union Township is ad-vancing rapidly with road con-struction and new businessescoming in.

“At times of change andgrowth, we must be especiallydiligent in planning and costanalysis.”

» Wolfer, 34, is owner/man-ager of the Norlyn Manor » ban-quet facility.

He’s not held elective politi-

cal office.1. “The biggest issue facing

Union Township today is out-of-control government spending.When money gets tight, the cur-rent answer is to create newtaxes rather than tighten ourbelt.

“The township has borrowedmoney against future taxes andcreated new income taxes onworking families while continu-ing to spend.

“It is time to live within ourmeans and stop borrowingagainst our future.”

2. “As a husband, father ofthree and small business owner,I fully understand what itmeans to cut out wastefulspending and live within mymeans. I believe that our elect-

Trustee candidates want hand in Union Twp.’s futureJeanne [email protected]

when he could not stom-ach required changes tothe restaurant and menu.

He changed the res-taurant’s name to Ro-ney’s after its old ad-dress.

But Loftspring keptthe cowboy-themed de-cor and the menu of roastbeef sandwiches, friedchicken and hamburgers.

The new 2,900-square-foot Roney’s in Milfordwas built to celebrate therestaurant’s history –hence the western décorand horseshoe branding,said Chance Truemper,vice president of Cincin-nati United Contractors,Inc. of Sycamore Town-ship.

Whatever the newlyopened Roney’s in Mil-ford does to make itsfried chicken so good, 17-year-old Dylan Sammonshopes it never stops.

Asked recently whathad brought him and afriend to the new restau-rant operating under theold covered wagon signat 314 Chamber Drive,the Milford High Schoolsenior had this to say:

“The chicken is amaz-ing. It’s definitely theskin.”

Sammons, who lives inMilford, also is a fan ofthe roast beef sand-wiches at Roney’s, whichbegan its 50-year historyin the region as a RoyRogers restaurant.

Sharing Sammons’taste for Roney’s are theclutches of diehard cus-tomers who celebratedon Facebook pages like itwas Christmas wrappedup in the Fourth of Julywhen news came thatMilford had lassoed therestaurant after a leasedispute ended its happytrails in Mt. Carmel inMay 2014.

“You can tell the meat

is just higher quality,”Sammons said.

Milford is excited tobe the new home for the

iconic restaurant, in-terim City Manager PamHolbrook said.

“It is a win-win forboth Roney's and thecity,” Holbrook said.

“The restaurant has avery loyal following andour hope is that the Ro-ney's customers may alsotake the time to exploreother great areas in thecity.”

Roney’s is next to thenew UC Health Physi-cian’s Office and nearMilford Parkway.

Owner David Loftspr-ing had operated a RoyRogers restaurant at 474Roney Lane off stateRoute 32 in Union Town-ship after he took it overfrom his father in the late1970s.

Loftspring said he leftthe franchise in 2012

This still boggles my mind: Halloween is second onlyto Christmas as the most decorated holi-day. Not so when I was a kid. The housewasn’t decorated, and the eight girls in ourfamily were either witches or gypsies. Mybrother, Charlie, the last born, was alwaysa hobo. We used whatever we could find todress up and we left at dark, by ourselves,and came home with grocery paper bagsfull of treats.

Fast forward to Halloween 2015. Even ifparental rules are stricter, Halloween isstill so much fun! Here are last-minuterecipes for a ghoulishly good Halloween.

Homemade microwave popcornCheck out my Abouteating.com site. You won’t believe

how easy and inexpensive, not to mention healthy andamazingly tender it is. (Hint: 1/2 cup unpopped cornmakes a generous 8 cups, but there’s a secret technique!)

Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator, Jungle Jim’s East-gate culinary professional and author. Find her blog atAbouteating.com. Email her at [email protected] with“Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line. Call 513-248-7130, ext. 356.

Homemade Halloween treats kids can help make‘Glowing’ swamp punch

Let the kids help. They love the creepycrawler ice ring.

1 cup boiling water2 packages, 4-serving size each, lime

gelatin3 cups cold water1-1/2 quarts carbonated lemon-lime

soda, chilled

Pour boiling water over gelatin and stiruntil dissolved. Stir in cold water. Pour intopunch bowl. Stir in soda, making mixturefizz.

Unmold ice ring by dipping bottom ofmold briefly into hot water. Float in punch.Serve cups garnished with gummy worms.

Creepy crawler ice ring1 cup gummyworms or other creepy crawler gummies

1 quart lemon-lime sports drink likeGatorade

Arrange gummy worms in bottom of5-cup ring mold; fill with Gatorade. Freezeuntil solid.

Black cat cookie pops

Again, let the kids help. Don’t worry iftheir cookies look like something other thancats. It’s about creativity and fun, not perfec-tion.

1 cup creamy peanut butter1/3 cup water2 eggs1 box chocolate cake mixPopsicle sticksSugarCandy corn, red hots

Preheat oven to 350. Beat peanutbutter with water and eggs. Add cake mixand mix. Form into 1-1/2” balls and place onsprayed cookie sheet. Push in a popsiclestick. Flatten with bottom of glass dipped insugar. Pinch two “ears” at top of cookie.Press fork into dough to form whiskers oneither side of nose. Bake 10-12 minutes.Remove from oven and immediately addcandy corn eyes and red-hot nose, pushingin gently. If they happen to fall off after theycool, glue them on with a little powderedsugar glaze or canned frosting. Makes 2-3dozen

My best caramel corn

This makes a lot so feel free to divide in half. Adding dried fruitelevates this to a new dimension.

Preheat oven to 200 degrees.

15-16 cups or so of popped cornAbout 3 cups salted mixed nuts2 sticks or butter2 cups brown sugar1/2 cup light corn syrup1/2 teaspoon salt1 tablespoon vanilla1/2 teaspoon baking soda2 cups dried cranberries, cherries or apricots (opt)

To avoid sticking, use vegetable spray to coat both inside oflarge bowl, cookie sheets and spoons that you will use. Put popcornand nuts in bowl. Set aside. Over medium heat in a large pan, bringto a boil everything but the soda. Boil 5 minutes. Add baking sodaand stir. Mixture will foam up. Immediately pour over popcorn mix-ture, stirring well to coat. Pour in a single layer onto sprayed cookiesheets. Bake 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to distribute coating.Let cool for coating to harden; add fruit, and store at room temper-ature in covered containers. Makes about 20 cups.

Tip from Rita’s kitchenAfter popping corn, place in colander or bowl and scoop up

popcorn gently with hands. Any unpopped corn will lie in bottom ofbowl.

Oct. 22 questionWho-dey? How far will the

Bengals go this year?

“Super Bowl 50 champs.” D.H.

“The Bengals will go fartherthan the Reds did, but thenagain, how hard can that be?They are playing well and win-ning consistently – Yay! Now, ifthey can keep the injuries to aminimum we might just havesomething in this team. Sincethey are playing so well andselling many seats, can we re-negotiate the asinine deal ourstupid city leaders agreed towith Mr. Brown? It is beyond ri-diculous for this city with itslevel of financial woes to have

to pay so much to keep a teamhere that gives darned nearnothing back. I want to havepride in this team and I do, butthat pride gets very muddledwhen thinking about how thor-oughly Brown takes the city tothe cleaners year after year af-ter year.”

M.J.F.

“The Bengals are an excitingteam with many great playerson offense and defense. Bar-ring major injuries (like lastyear) they are playoff bound. Itwould be great if they can get afirst round bye in the playoffsalong with home field advan-tage. But the New England Pa-triots stand in their way. Thewish here is someone can knock

of New England prior to theBengals having to face them inthe playoffs. That might justpropel the Bengals to the SuperBowl ala the 1981 and 1988 sea-sons. Like those two years theBengals are loaded with manyclass act players. Go Figure!”

MarvinJones putsextra effortinto hisspike afterscoring atouchdownin the thirdquarter ofthe Bengals’win atBuffalo.

The New Richmond Ex-empted Village School Dis-trict has joined 42 otherpublic schools to form theGreater Cincinnati SchoolsAdvocacy Network. Thisgroup of schools is com-prised of students and

teachersfrom greatcommuni-ties that arestriving todo greatthings forour stu-dents.

However,we havefound ourjob more

difficult to do in recentyears due to requirementsand regulations placed onus from state and federalgovernment. Based on arandom survey, many peo-ple in our communityagree.

Some of the findings bythe survey:

» 60.4 percent believethat increased mandatesplaced on public schoolshave not been helpful toincrease student achieve-ment.

» 67.8 percent believethat increased mandatesplaced on public schoolshave excessively burdenedthe local taxpayer.

» 78.1 percent believethat the most innovativeideas that create studentsuccess come from teach-ers, administrators andlocally elected schoolboards.

» 80.8 percent believethat the State Legislatureshould reduce mandatesand give more control tolocal school boards.

» 93.8 percent believethat privately-operatedcharter schools that receivepublic dollars should be

held to the same transpar-ency and accountability aspublic schools.

I believe that there aresome reasonable, common-sense steps that can betaken to improve educationin our state and community.

» Increase the local con-trol of education by empow-ering local boards of educa-tion to make decisions thatare in the best interest ofthe students in our commu-nity.

» Decrease the amountof funded and unfundedmandates that take away aschool's ability to focusspending on students in theclassroom.

» Decrease the amountof required testing. Letlocal schools decide how tobest prepare students forlife, career, leadership, andproductivity. These deci-sions would be made by thelocal board of educationreflecting the values andstandards of the local com-munity.

» I would ask our legisla-tors to pass legislation thatrequires all State Board ofEducation members to beelected. Currently, the ma-jority of this State Boardhas been appointed by thegovernor. This creates asituation that gives onebranch of government toomuch power.

» New Richmond EVSDis funded $1,750 per pupilby the state. However, forevery student who attends apublic charter school, anaverage of $7,521 is deduct-ed from our state funding,for a total of $308,000 takenaway from NREVSD. Thatdifference comes fromlocal taxpayers. In light ofthe closing of the BeckjordPower Station, our districtcannot afford to supple-ment this amount anymore.I would ask our legislatorsto limit the charter schoolper pupil deduction to theactual amount that our dis-trict would have receivedfrom the state.

» I would ask our legisla-tors to hold charter schoolsto the same level of finan-cial and academic oversightby which public schools areevaluated. I welcome fi-nancial and academic trans-parency for New RichmondEVSD, but I believe thatcharter schools, acceptingmillions of public dollars,should be held to same levelof public accountability.

No one loves our stu-dents, schools, and commu-nity like the residents ofthe New Richmond Schoolcommunity. Let’s return theability to make decisionsthat are best for our stu-dents back to our communi-ty.

What does the Zoontjensfamily of The Netherlandshave in common with PaulScott of Mulberry?

At first glance, it wouldseem not much. They lived indifferent countries. They nev-

er met. Theywere separat-ed in time by70 years. Thebond, however,is deep andabiding.

Paul wasborn in 1921and grew up inMulberry. Heattended Mil-ford schools.

He enlisted in the U.S. ArmyAir Corps several months aftergraduating from Terrace ParkHigh School. Paul trained as aradio operator and waist gun-ner on a bomber. After traininghe was assigned to the 453rdBomber Squadron of the 8thU.S. Air Force based in Essex,England.

On March 26, 1944, Sgt.Scott and five other crewmembers boarded the “ToidBoid,” a B26C Marauder, for abombing run over Holland. Asit approached its target at 2:44in the afternoon, it came underheavy enemy anti-aircraftartillery fire. The “Toid Boid”opened its bomb bay doors.Before it could drop its load, anartillery shell struck the plane.Flames streamed from itswings to its tail. It spiraledsteeply down - crashing intothe sand dunes near Ijmuiden,Holland. There were no survi-vors.

Roger Zoontjens’ grandfa-

ther told him stories about thedark days of the Nazi occupa-tion - stories Roger has neverforgotten. Seventy-five per-cent of Holland’s Jews, in-cluding Anne Frank, weremurdered in Nazi death camps.Hundreds of thousands ofmore Dutch citizens wereforced to labor in German warfactories.

Roger and his family wereimpressed by the level ofAmerican commitment to theliberation of Europe after vis-iting the American MilitaryCemetery at Normandy. Thefamily decided that they want-ed to show their gratitude tothe fallen Americans who diedfor their liberty 70 years ago.They filed an application to“adopt a grave” at the Margra-ten Cemetery in Limburg, TheNetherlands.

Originally, the cemeterycontained the graves of 18,764American service members.Today 8,301 graves remainafter repatriation. The “Adopt-a-grave” program developedspontaneously in 1945 whenlocals began decorating themarble crosses and stars ofDavid with flowers on Memori-al Day. In 2005, President Bushvisited Margraten to commem-orate the liberation of Europe.He asked the Dutch to keep theshared experiences of the waralive for future generations.The Dutch agreed to continuethe tradition of honoring their“Liberators” and to “reinvestin peace every day.”

Roger, Patricia and Joepwere shocked to learn thatthere was a six month waitinglist to adopt their grave. They

were thrilled when Sgt. Scottwas assigned to them. Theyhave decorated his grave, col-lected information, andreached out to the Scott family.Mary Scott, Paul’s 97-year-oldsister-in-law and 1936 Milfordgraduate, was very surprisedwhen the Zoontjens contactedher and is very grateful forwhat they have done.

We sometimes undervalueour veteran’s contributions. Itis reassuring that the Dutchpeople have remembered andcontinue to honor the sacri-fices of Americans who diedliberating their country.

Thank you Roger, Patriciaand Joep.

Glen Este High School islooking at a second consecu-tive Ohio Division II playoffspot under Coach Nick Ayers,class of ‘99. As a player, Ayerswent from a walk-on atGeorgetown College to a three-time All-American who playedon NAIA championship teams.That led to a free agent lookwith the hometown Bengals.

According to reports, then-Bengals running backs coachJim Anderson liked his effort.Apparently, no one ever toldNick Ayers that he couldn’t doanything.

Likewise, the Glen EsteHigh School football job in2012 wasn’t as appealing as it istoday. Participation fees in theWest Clermont School Districtapproached $500 per student/per sport. It began to affectnumbers on the football roster.

Fortunately, the fees werereduced, the numbers have ris-en and the Trojans have hadone of their better seasons.

“They’re very hungry,”Ayers said. “The kids come inextra and stay late.”

Members of the General Assem-

bly clearly voiced their support for

a smoke-free Kentucky bill for the

2015 session last week that mirrors

previously failed legislation in 2014.

Denouncing the argument that a

smoke-free bill prohibiting smoking

in public places would kill business,

Brent Cooper, a business owner

from northern Kentucky, said not

only are businesses prospering

across the Ohio River in Cincinnati

with a smoke-free law, but that the

pubs in Ireland haven’t shut down

since the country put a ban on

smoking in the workplace 10 years

ago.Many legislators conferred that

public smoking was indefensible in

Kentucky given the state’s bad

health ratings compared to other

states throughout the U.S.

According to testimony from

Wayne Meriwether, CEO of Twin

Lakes Regional Medical Center,

second-hand smoke is just as dan-

gerous for those that don’t smoke.

all Kentuckians smoke. We lead the

WILLIAMSBURG –There was a playoffatmosphere at Williams-burg Oct. 23.

Williamsburg gave itsplayoff hopes a majorboost with a 20-14 victory,while Bethel-Tate has tocome to grips with the factthat next Friday will likelybe its final game of theseason. The Wildcats nowhave sole possession offirst place in the SBAACNational Division withone game to play.

The Wildcats marchedthe ball 95 yards, takingup over six minutes ofclock to score the go-ahead touchdown. Thedrive started thanks to agreat defensive play fromBryson Vize, who swatteda Tigers pass attempt onthird down, forcing apunt. The Wildcats tookover at their five yard linewith over nine minutesleft. Spencer Clowery,Dawson Davis, and KurtMeisberger then ran theball all the way down thefield. Davis capped it witha seven-yard touchdownrun.

“We knew that this wasabig game and we just hadto do what we know how todo, and everything wouldplay out,” said Meisberg-er. “We know that our of-fense can win us games.”

Bethel-Tate enteredthe game ranked sixth in

the OHSAA’s latest Divi-sion V computer rankings,while Williamsburgranked seventh in Divi-sion VI. The Wildcatswere seeking their secondplayoff appearance inthree years; the Tigerswere seeking the pro-gram’s first ever playoffberth. Williamsburg knewwhat it would take to winthis type of game and re-lied on that experiencefrom 2013.

“We’ve been there, weknew what it was going tobe like,” said Wildcatscoach Scott Lefker. “Theycame out and hit us. Athalftime, we said we’rejust going to keep ham-mering on them and hopewe come out in the end.

“We knew we would.These kids are great. Thisis the best group of sen-iors I’ve had.”

Both the Wildcats andTigers were playing tomake history, but thegame had a nostalgic feelto it. Both teams base theiroffense on the Wing-T.The game was played on areal grass field. The firstpass completion of thegame came with 5:25 leftin the first half.

Early in the third quar-ter, Steven Cooper burstfor a 90-yard touchdownrun to break a 7-7 tie andgive Bethel-Tate its first,and last, lead of the game.

The Wildcats would notbe denied. The senior run-ning back put the Wildcats

up early then led thecomeback after Bethel-Tate seized the lead andthe momentum. Histouchdown run early inthe fourth quarter tied thegame at 14, then he and hisfellow backs carried Wil-liamsburg to victory. Asix-plus minute drivecapped by Dawson Da-vis’s touchdown run wasthe difference.

PLAY OF THE GAME:On Bethel-Tate’s final pos-session, trailing by six,wide receiver Justin Hix-son got behind the de-fense. Spencer Cloweryraced over from his safetyposition to make a play atthe last possible second.The officials called himfor pass interference, butthe 15-yard penalty savedwhat would have been thetying touchdown for Be-thel-Tate.

“I was just playing offof instinct at that point,hoping for somethinggood to happen,” saidClowery. “I was hoping tonot let a big play happen.”

PLAYERS OF THEGAME: The trio of Clow-ery, Meisberger, and Da-vis. They carried the ballon every snap of the 95-yard go-ahead touchdowndrive. They stayed calmthe entire second half,sticking to their gameplan no matter the scoreor field position.

“Coach teaches us tostay positive and keeppushing,” said Clowery.

SHORT HOPS

Program-wide,Ayers says there are 96Trojans involved. Thecoaching is intense. Theplayers play with a chipon their shoulders andplay fast.

As a result, Glen Estehas topped the EasternCincinnati Conferencein offense, averagingmore than 460 yards pergame and usually top-ping the 40-point mark.In three years, GlenEste has gone 4-6, 5-5and 6-4, with this seasonbeing the best for theseniors that first put ontheir purple gear dur-ing Ayer’s first fall.

Among those arequarterback TylerPilcher, who led theECC in passing in 2013as a sophomore with1,632 yards. The follow-ing year he threw for1,645 yards for secondplace, with many of

those going to ECC re-ceiving leader JacobHamilton. This season,he’s obliterated thosemarks and often findsHamilton or fellow sen-iors Tanner Ayers andRobby Boone.

The Trojans can alsopound the ball withBoone who ran for 300yards against Milfordand went more than 200against Mount Healthyand Anderson.

“These seniors de-serve our best effort ascoaches,” Ayers said. “Ilove these kids like myown children.”

An example ofAyers’ dedication is themultitude of team bond-ing activities the Tro-jans have done. Amongthose are competitivepaintball sessions andbasic lessons in life likehow to tie one’s own tie.

After wins, Ayers isquick to praise his teambut usually looks be-yond the game.

“We know good orbad, we’re going to be a

family and that’s all thatmatters. It hasn’t noth-ing to do with the field,we’re only out 10-15games a year. It’s theculture these kids haveto come to every day.”

The culture haspassed on to the stu-dents, who routinelyare loud and decorated.The @GEPaintCrewmakes every game Hal-loween.

“Our school spirit isunbelievable,” Ayerssaid. “I would bet everystudent knows the fightsong and the alma ma-ter. They stay after anddo it win or lose.”

The next goal is toplay more than onegame in November.Last year, Glen Este lostto the eventual DivisionII state champion LaSalle in the first round,48-28. If current com-puter rankings holds,the Trojans could possi-bly see rematches withTurpin, Kings or MountHealthy and maybe theLancers.

Howdy folks,As I write this arti-

cle the news gave areport that a seniorservices in NorthernKentucky has shutdown due to no money.

One willbe items from the Pal-lelo Indian artifacts.These were dug upfrom a campsite andlog house in Tate Town-ship. They are 2,000years old. There weretwo that were from afarm on Free Soil Roadnear Georgetown inBrown County. Theseitems, called Clovispoints, are estimated tobe 20,000 years old.

They arefrom thefirst peo-ple toinhabitNorthAmerica.This is abeautifulcollectionfrom aprivate

family so mark yourcalendar to be thereand see and talk to Rayor Tony. There will berefreshments.

There will be a craftshow at Russellville onNov. 7, at the oldschoolhouse. Therewill be hundreds ofitems to see and theywill also have food ifyou get hungry. Somark your calendar. Iwill be there with mywood items.

I was talking to A-Morchard. They haveapples to pick. Theyare golden delicious,wine sap, melrose andin the house they havered delicious, goldendelicious, courtland,and honey crisp. Theyalso have apple cider.

Ruth Ann alwaysliked the wine sap tomake pies but all of theapples will make goodpies.

I was also talking toJohn Pringle about hisbeautiful orchard. Hesaid they have red deli-

cious, golden delicious,melrose, wine sap andalso cider.

I used to help his dadprune the apple treesand pick apples andpeaches. He had apeach orchard and theywere beautiful. Therewere three of us pick-ing peaches and Ros-coe’s wife was sellingthe peaches, therewould be maybe threebushel setting at atime. One year RuthAnn and me were shorton money so we wentand picked apples toget money to buy gro-ceries. John’s dad, Ros-coe, was a great or-chard man and knewwhat he was doing.

The telephone num-ber for Pringle’s or-chard is 625-9866 or theApple house is 625-1786. John told me he isplanting more appletrees and next yearhopes to start anotherblackberry bed. Thecold weather a fewyears ago killed hisblackberry patch. Iwas glad to hear himsay a blueberry bedalso, that will be agreat addition to hisorchard.

The Grants Farmabove Owensville willhave a new store nextyear. The one they havenow is in need of repairso they are taking itdown and putting an-other one in its place.If anyone is in need oftrees, the Grants havesome that they are sell-ing cheaper so go seethem.
