pension.“Being a part-time

job, I am shocked to findout about this,” he said inhis comment. “Our taxeswere just increased dra-matically last year withthe change in the taxcredit for taxes paid toother communitieswhere we work. Howabout we eliminate thepension plan for part-time elected officials tohelp savemoney?”

City Manager RayHodges says councilmembers don’t havehave the authority to de-cide not to allow officialsto participate in the OhioPublic Employees Re-tirement System; it’s re-quired by law.

Johnson issued astatement that ad-dressed some of Emer-son’s concerns.

The statement pointsout that OPERS is a stateretirement system thatoperates under the au-thority of the Ohio Gen-eralAssembly.All retire-ment eligibility andguidelines are set by theretirementboardandva-riesby typeof employee.

“If a person is electedto council they are goingto be required to eitherparticipate in Social Se-curity or OPERS and ifthey have previous ser-vice credit in OPERS

they will not have achoice but to partici-pate,” Johnsonsaid. “It isimportant to note that ifyou are elected to officeunderOPERS, pension isbased on years of ser-vice, age and earnings.”

He said in general, ifyou do not have at leastfive years of service andare not at least 60 yearsof age, then you willprobably end up seekingarefundespecially ifyouonly serve a four-yearterm. Johnson said sala-ry amounts differ whencomparing among cities,but Forest Park councilmembers are paid$5,381.28 annually.“That’s not much to plana pension off of,” he said.

The salary covers allof the time councilmem-bers spend at councilmeetings, work sessions,committee meetings,neighborhood meetings,citywide inspections andother official activitiesas well as gas, transpor-tation and other ex-penses.

Under OPERS, if youretirewithapensionben-efit on or before Dec. 31,andhaveat least10yearsof qualifying servicecredit in the plan, youcan apply for the OPERShealth care plan. Thebenefit changes Jan. 1:you would need at least20 years of qualifyingservice at age 60 or 30years of qualifying ser-vice at any age to applyfor the health care plan.

Students at McAuley HighSchool are learning aboutthe skeleton, muscles and

joints from the orthopaedic sur-geons atBeaconOrthopaedics&Sports Medicine.

NinetystudentsinCindyWer-ner’sAnatomy&Physiology andHuman Biology classes gath-eredinthePerformingArtsCen-ter in early January to learnabout the anatomy of the kneejoint from Dr. Lucas Richie, aswell as hear about many of thesurgical procedures he has per-formed in his career. The stu-dents were able to ask Richiequestions about his background,training, other medical profes-sions, and specific clinical ques-tions.

As a follow-up to the lecture,Beacon Orthopaedic invited 12students to visit the Research &Education Center at its Summit

Woods location in Sharonville.Dr. Robert Rolf, along with Ri-chie, led the students in a dissec-tion of the human knee. The labexperience consisted of fourworkstations,eachfocusingonauniqueaspectof thehumankneeusing human cadaver speci-mens.The students experiencedfirsthand, the use of arthroscop-ic equipment to visualize the in-ternal knee and its structures.The dissection allowed them toperformamenisectomy,harvestahamstringtendonandsimulatean ACL reconstruction.

Additionally, 70 forensic sci-ence students traveled to theCollege of Mount St. Joseph inFebruary. They met with Dr.Elizabeth A. Murray, professorof biology and forensic/biologi-cal anthropology.

The students first heard apresentation on the various

tasks of a forensic anthropolo-gist and how the work is accom-plished. They then participatedin a lab activity that had five sta-tions of actual human speci-mens. At each station, they per-formed tasks such as recon-structing a disarticulated skele-ton, determining cause of deathfrom skull examination, deter-mining height from femur mea-surements, determining agefrom dental and skull examina-tions, and determining genderandage frompelvicboneexami-nations.

From skeletal examination,they were expected to deter-mineage, gender, possible causeof death and other identifyingcharacteristics, such as pastpregnancies. Concluding the ex-perience, Murray presentedsomeofherpast cases to the stu-dents.

At the College of Mount St. Joseph, students put together a skeleton and checked to make sure all the bonespresent. Pictured are Samantha Girdler, Jessica Gutzwiller, Julia Cason and Rachael Schmitt. PROVIDED

Williams also participated inthe100-meter dash, the 200-me-ter dash, the long jump and thetriple jump during his prep ca-reer.

“I’m very excited. Trackmeans the world to me and be-ing able to continue my careeris a blessing,” Williams said.“This has been a goal of mineever since I was in gradeschool.”

Williams, who also playedfootball at Mount Healthy, bat-tled an Achilles strain early inhis senior season. Still, he man-

aged to set a school record inthe 300 hurdles with a finish of40.17 in the district champion-ships and had the second-fast-est time in the 110 hurdlesamong all competitors in theSWOC.

ROSELAWN — They startedwith theRoyals andBlue Jays,although not in Kansas City orToronto.

Phil Anderson of Price Hillopened his baseball careerwith the Cincinnati Royals atage 4. Nigel Williams ofSpringfield Township beganwith the Bond Hill Blue Jayswhen he was 3.

Both are now rising seniorsat La Salle High School andboth got a taste of the bigleagues while playing among40 of the region’s best baseballprospects in the 2014 MLBBreakthrough Series at thenew P&G Cincinnati MLB Ur-ban Youth Academy July 25and 26.

Cincinnati was one of fourcities to host the 2014 Break-through Series, joiningBrook-lyn, N.Y., Bradenton, Fla., andCompton, Calif. The invita-tion-only camp for top inner-city prospects aims to pro-mote baseball as a viable col-legiate and professional op-tion for urban youth and toshowcase the players in frontof college recruiters and pro-fessional scouts.

The Breakthrough Seriescosts nothing for participants;Major League Baseball and

USA Baseball pick up the tab.More than 100 past partici-pants have been selected inthe Major League draft, in-cluding more than 60 chosenover the last three seasons.

Players in Cincinnati re-ceived professional instruc-tion from former Reds likeDmitri Young, Denny Neagleand Jeffrey Hammonds andsquared off against one anoth-er in a series of .

“It’s important to get to in-ner-city kids and give them achance to be seen,” said 2005Moeller High School graduateCameron Satterwhite, whoplayed a few seasons of minorleague ball before joining thethe Reds and the P&G Cincin-nati MLB Urban Youth Acad-emy.

“It’s an opportunity for ur-ban, inner-city kids to have achance to work out in front ofproscoutsandcollegecoachesand to play the game at first-class facilities with first-classinstruction. It helps our localgame and it helps the game ingeneral to have this caliber ofplayers here for this.”

Anderson, a La Salle run-ning back, said his heart is inbaseball.

“Mostly the competition iswhat I like, but I love to hit,”Anderson said. “That’s my fa-vorite part of the game, get-ting in there and swinging thebat.”

Working with professionalinstructors gave him some in-sight into his swing.

“I’m learning new tech-niques to what you can do inthebatter’sbox,”hesaid. “(I’mworking on) my extension,really getting out and throughthe ball when I swing.”

Anderson hopes being seenbycollege scoutswill help himland a scholarship offer; hewould like to study sportsmedicine in college.

Williams wants to studypublic relations in college andalready has a good spin on theups and downs of baseball.

“It’s a game of failures, butwhen you succeed it’s the bestfeeling in the world,” he said.“You can go up and strike outtwice, but if you get a line-drive double and knock in arun that third time, it’s a goodday.”

MONFORT HEIGHTS —“No rest for the wicked”is a commonly usedphrase in today’s world.

While La Salle sopho-more-to-be Corey Shie isanything but wicked offthe wrestling mat, hisskills on the mat are justthat and helped him afifth-place finish at the2014 Ohio High SchoolAthleticAssociationDivi-sion I state wrestlingchampionships inMarch.

As for rest, Coreycould use some. SinceOc-tober Shie can practicallycount on one hand hisnumber of days off. Fol-lowing his trip to state, heventured to Iowa in Aprilwith TeamOhio – his clubwrestling team – wherehe won the Folkstyle Na-tionals at 126 pounds.Next he found himself inDaytona Beach, Fla. forthe Cadet Duals Nation-als., followed by a stay atDisney World for the

Folkstyle Duals beforejetting off to ColoradoSprings, Colo. for a week-long training session atthe Olympic TrainingCenterbefore flyingbackto Lakewood St. EdwardHigh School where TeamOhio trained in prepara-tionforthe2014CadetNa-tionals in Fargo, N.D.

All the mat time paidoffasShie finishedfourthin both the Greco-Romanand Freestyle Nationalsin Fargo, bringing homehis fourth and fifth All-American honor in theprocess.

“I was really happywith my performance,”Shie said. “I didn’t getwhat I wanted, but I wasstill pleased that I (wasnamed an All-American)in both styles. It’s brutalout there. You’re wres-tling for five days; youhave to make weight al-most every day and it’sjust brutal.”

In thesemifinals of theGreco tournament Shiewas beaten by Quentin

Hovis of Arizona via techfall,12-1,butgottoseeHo-vis again in the Freestylequarterfinals.Seekinghisrevenge, Shie took downHovis 9-4 to earn his fifthAll-American honor injust two years.

“I just wanted my re-venge out there,” he saidwith a slight smile on hisface, “and I got what Iwanted. It was awesomegetting that win.”

Shie’s success is nosurprise to most in thewrestling world. TheLancer picked up thesport when hewas 5 afterhis father, Steve – whowrestled in high school –encourage his to take tothemat.Aftergrowingupin the Lakota Kids Clubandspending the lastnineyears under La Sallecoach Avery Zerkle, theelder Shie is enjoying be-ing able to travel thecountry and share in hisson’s success, and evenpicked up his father fromtheir native Wisconsin enroute to Fargo to watch

Corey dominate on themat.

“It’s awesome,” saidSteve, who wrestled inhigh school before tear-ing his ACL his senioryear and giving up thesport. “I feel fortunatethat I’mable to do that forhim.When Iwashis age, Iwas into wrestling, but Ididn’t have the kind of op-portunities he’s had.”

While what he’s doingnationally on thematmaymake the headlines,what’s taking place in thewrestlingroomatLaSallemay draw the mostpraise. Shie is part of avery young and talentedgroupunderZerklethat isprepared to makes someserious waves in thewrestlingworldcomeNo-vember.

Shie said will takesome time off beforeback-to-back nationaltournaments come thelast week of October andthe first week of Novem-berbefore thehighschoolseason begins.

La Salle’s Corey Shie works on Mt. Healthy’s D’essence Martin before his pin at 120 pounds during their match at theOHSAA Regional Dual Team Tournament at La Salle High School. Shie went on to finish fifth in the state at 120 poundsand more recently finished fourth at the 2014 Cadet Nationals in Fargo, N.D., in both Greco-Roman and Freestylemeets.

CINCINNATI —On whatwas a perfect evening forbaseball, the result wasanything but for the Cin-cinnati Steam.

The fourth-seededSteam saw their seasondrawtoaclosewithafrus-trating2-0 loss to theLick-ing County Settlers onJuly 29 in the secondround of the Great LakesSummer CollegiateLeague playoffs.

The Steam left runnersin scoring position in fiveof thenine innings, includ-ing leaving thebases load-ed in the fourth inning,stranding runners at firstand third base in the sev-enth and strandingmen atfirst and second in theeighth.

“Theirguysthrewverywell,” Cincinnati coachBrad Gschwind said ofpitchers Matt Dennis andDustin Cowart who com-bined to allow eight hits,three walks and ninestrikeouts for theSettlers.“Obviously anytime youput together a shutout,they threw well. Wecouldn’tget thebighit,buttheir guys did a good jobofnot lettingusget thebighit.”

The Settlers brokethrough in the top of thefourth inning when Nel-sonPrice drove a single toleft field scoring JustinByrd. One out later, MattSmith ripped a triple tothe left centerfield gapscoring Price, and thatwas it for the scoring.

The loss capped off arough final half of the sea-son for theSteamthat sawthem lose 11 of their final13 games to finish the sea-son 21-20.

“I feel like that’s what

our problem was in thestretch where we startedlosing; we weren’t hittingtogether,” right fielderJake Richmond said afterthe game. “Some peopleweregettinghits, a couplepeople,butnobodytogeth-er were really hitting.”

Richmond, a 2013 OakHills High School gradu-ate and current sopho-more at the University ofCincinnati, was one ofonly two Steam players torecord more than one hitin the loss, going 2-for-3with a double and a baseon balls. The other wascenter fielder, BrianBruening.

“You alwayswant to goout and win a ring, and toknow you had such a goodseason until the end andyou came up rough, andthen to lose like this, itstinks,” Richmond said.

The loss shouldn’t takeaway from the perfor-mance of Steam startingpitcher Matt Jefferson.The current NorthernKentucky UniversityNorse starting pitchertossed eight innings, al-lowing six hits, zeroearned runs, zero walkswhile striking out six, butwas still issued the loss.Jefferson – who is in histhird season with theSteam – became the fran-chise’s all-time leader inboth wins and strikeoutsthisseasonwhilegoing5-2with a 3.95 ERA and 33strikeouts in 38.2 inningsthis season.

“It was just anothergreat start by Matt, justlike he’s done for us allyear,”Gschwindsaid,whojust completed his firstseason on the bench fortheSteam.“Hehadagreatstart, and unfortunatelywe couldn’t get him thewin tonight.”

“I had my day in thesun and I enjoyed it,”Young said. “It was doneforme in the past and you

want to give it back tosome kids who might nothave a chance otherwise.Nowyouwant to see otherkids have a shot at theirday.

“You have talent ev-erywhere and it’s just amatter of them beingseen. It’s aboutputting thekids in front of the righteyes.They’reall notgoingto make the pros or evenplay college baseball, butsome of them will. Youjust want them to have achance.”

boys were the first sub-four minute 400 free re-lay team in the UnitedStates posting a 3:58.04(Carson Foster, JacobMcDonald, Ansel Frossand Kevin Thibodeaux).

For the 13-14 group,Grender and Perera areSt. Xavier Aquabombersand Josh McDonald at-tends Lakota East.

“We really loweredsome state marks byquite a bit,”Wolford said.“It’s kind of a tribute toour depth that we wereable to put together somenational record-settingrelays with really no na-tional record-setting in-dividuals. They wereable to come together atthe same time and setthose records.”

Wolfordhad little timeto celebrate the accom-plishments of his young-er Marlins as the 15-18group was back in thepool the following weekin Oxford for their com-petition. TheMarlins, forthe most part, are a yearround commitment.

“We take the highschool kids and trainthem in the offseason,”Wolford said. “Almost allof the high school swim-mers swim with theirclubs through spring and

summer.We take a breakin August, then theycome back in the fall andtrainuntil thehighschoolseason starts.”

The program includesmore than 500 swimmersnow and more than 100have become high schoolAll-Americans in the lastdozen years. Wolford hascoachedswimmers to theNational Junior Teamand coached Dan Ket-chum in the Pan Ameri-can Games. Ketchum,from Sycamore, went onto become an Olympicgold medalist in 2004.

The veteran coachthinks this summer’s rec-ord-setting relay swim-mers are destined for ac-colades beyond the statetournament in Canton.

“Theseguyswereableto win by enough that ifthey stay on track, theyshould be contending forstate titles,” Wolfordsaid.

Achieving high pointawards for theMarlins intheir age groups wereCarson Foster, HannahFoster and Josh McDon-ald. McDonald also tookOutstanding Male Swim-mer honors.

The upside for Wol-ford was being able tocoach his son and daugh-ter on the squad. As forAugust, the family willtake a break from thechlorine for some vaca-tion.

Comments about Renais-sance men are accepted, butwhat about Renaissance wom-en?

Diane Jeynes is just suchone, possessing all the positivetraits of the term. She lives inThe Edges of Wyoming andbrims over with enthusiasmabout the neighborhood andneighbors and wants the col-umn to be about them. Howev-er, I couldn’t resist writingabout her.

She loves collecting pig artsand crafts,and gave me a bookentitled “A Collection,” filledwith delicious recipes from theWyomingWoman’s Club. Page90 begins her essay about herunexplainable fondness for theadorable porkers. Many adornthe lovely home she shareswith hubby, Dean. “I NeverMet a Pig I Didn’t Like” takesthe reader through her fasci-nation with pigs and ends witha “Paeon to Pigs,” written inthe style of Ogden Nash.

Diane’s home boasts framedpaintings of the SuspensionBridge that remind her of hermother crossing the bridge

from Covingtonto work at FifthThird UnionTrust when shewas a youngwoman. Diane’sgrandmotherdied whenDiane’s motherwas about 7 or 8,so her grand-mother opened agrocery store tosupport the fam-

ily. That made her an indepen-dent business woman, rare inthe early part of the 20th cen-tury. Diane has photographs ofMrs. F.J. Edwards in front ofthe enterprise that bore hername. Diane loves history, andframed a 1926 calendar fromthe store and has an 1870 sam-pler made by Katie Doll, arelative who was a nun.

Diane’s father grew up inthe funeral business and wentinto partnership with Wrass-mann and Barfknecht FuneralHome in Over-the-Rhine be-fore expanding to the GilbertAvenue location whereThompson, Hall and Jordan

Funeral Home is now located.She was a copywriter for Shil-lito’s and McAlpin’s Depart-ment Stores. As a journalism/English major in college,Diane simply could not getcomfortable working with thesociety editor of one publica-tion where she was offered ajob. Such reporting lackedcreativity, and Diane has muchof that.

About 52 people gathered atthe gazebo of Mike andMari-lyn Kremzar for a Fourth ofJuly picnic. The Kremzarshave been very gracious aboutoffering it to the community.Diane enthusiastically de-scribed the children ridingtheir bicycles and playing cornhole with adults. In-laws andextended family joined thefun. As Diane said, “The peo-ple here are so neat. Evenguests pitched in.”

Mary Fuhr came up withthe idea and Barbara DeSalvojoined to get the ball rolling.Gail Giardina was the pot luckcoordinator, and Mary BethMartin and Sally Chapmanhandled the decorations. The

fun began at four and ended intime to enjoy the fireworks.Response was so positive to doit again and so many ex-changed recipes, that Dianewants to write a cookbook offavorite recipes after eachcelebration. Everyone has asharing heart in The Edges.Dave Burton acts as liaisonwith maintenance to keepthings tidy. He paints anyone’smailbox that he notices needsit. He decorates the entranceto the community on holidaysand does so much more justbecause he has a good heart.

The Jeynes began their 52years of married life in Wyo-ming, first on Clark and thenon Oliver avenues. Now goingdown the garden path, asDiane puts it, they feel blessedto again have such splendidneighbors and to be living inThe Edges which is, indeed, aWyoming community.

What a short summer break.My ohmy, it seemed like it wasjust yesterday that all of thoseboxes of books, records, ma-terials etc. were packed,dragged to a car, then stowed ina large corner of a basement.

Contrary towhat manythink, mostelementaryschool teach-ers see theJuly 4th holi-day as the endof a very briefrespite frombidding good-bye to studentswho justmoved to the

next grade.The first step is to embark

on an in-depth reflection of theprevious school year.

What programs and activ-ities worked?What changes arenecessary?What should becompletely forgotten?

Next, one has to think aboutan entirely new group of stu-dents, maybe a new classroom,different grade level, or per-haps a new school.

As the new school yeardraws closer, all those boxesare loaded back into the car,hauled to school, and luggedinto an empty classroom. Onlythe clanging sounds of thebuilding’s cleaners are heard asthe teacher contemplates whatthe roomwill look like in fourshort weeks.

Each day progress towardthe opening of school is made.Shelves are lined with books,bulletin boards are covered,furniture is rearranged andboxes are unloaded. Supple-mental materials are sorted forvarious units of study. Whileshifting things into place,thankfully, there are formerstudents eager to assist.

Just two weeks before thefirst day students arrive, thedaily diet of meetings begins.

Were those endless listsmentioned? Lists for groups,textbooks, attendance records.A stack rises on teacher’s desk.

Of course the most importantone is the ever changing classlist, each name bearing a stu-dent’s unique past and hope forthe future. Parents want to seewho their child’s teacher is.Children want to see if theirfriends are in the same class.Teachers need to use it to cre-ate more lists.

Oh. Almost forgot that intoday’s world of student ac-countability, there are all thosetest results waiting to be exam-ined. Reams of test data toreview. Instructional strategiesto address students strengthsand weakness are formed andin some cases submitted inwriting to the building adminis-trator. These are the momentsof the profession’s reality thatburst the bubble of the joy ofteaching.

The week before schoolbegins, teachers refine bulletinboard displays, develop interestcenters, outline daily schedulesand post students’ routines inprominent spaces around theroom. Afternoons are spentcontacting parents, shoppingfor students’ supplies and re-viewing students’ academic andhealth records. Initial plans aredevised to make connectionswith each child and to identifyall those activities that willmake the first day of schoolspecial for everyone.

Then the eve of the newschool year arrives. The teach-ers’ thoughts about the comingday are racing through theirminds. Like the routine ringingof the school’s morning bell, thedetailed visualization of thememorable day ahead bringsan expected sleepless night.Themorning dawns. The class-room door opens. One by oneeach student is welcomed. Nowerased by the excitement of thefirst day of school the briefsummer break is a distantmemory.

Noel H. Taylor is a retired adminis-trator, Princeton City School Dis-trict, and adjunct professor of educa-tion, Xavier University. He is aresident of Sharonville.

Teachers get readyfor first day of school

Noel H.TaylorCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

July 31 questionWhat do you consider the

most important races/issues intheNovemberelection?Whyarethey important?

“The most important issuein the next election is takingour country back from theloons who have been in chargefor the past six years. Sidebarto that is stop the illegal immi-gration; letting all these un-checked individuals into thiscountry is crazy. I knowthe lib-erals look at them as potentialvoters down the road and noth-ing else, but the damage that istaking place in the mean timeis off the chart. Wake up folks,this is a crisis that we had bet-ter take very seriously.”

T.S.

“School board, because ourchildren are the future of ourcommunity.”

Carrie Cox

“None. It’s all a game be-tween the two-party systempittingus against oneanother.”

John Bernard

“The school board electionspresentasituationwherefresheyes and ears can become an

immediate majority.”Aaron Gillum

“Get back to the Constitu-tionwith focus on freedomandliberty. Both parties areflawed.”

Joe Kalil

“Closing the gap on finan-cial inequality via the Senate.”

Lesley Chambers

July 24 questionShould pit bulls be banned?

Why or why not?

“No, APBT (American PitBull Terriers) should not bebanned. The irresponsibleowners should be banned! Irescued my APBT who I havehad professionally trained. Hegoes everywhere with me,even to work. He is overlyfriendly and people have saidthey want a dog just like him.In the 1800s, they were knownas “nanny dogs” often incharge of babysitting childrenwhile their parents worked inthefarmfields.Whatchanged?The thugs and the dog fightingowners who trained them tofight. It is all about how theyare raised as it is with any dogbreed, not just the APBTs.”

May Robinson

“Given the proper circum-stances, all dogs bite. The sta-tistics show that the No. 1biterbreed is Labradors. It doesn’ttake into account that Labra-dors are the most popular dog,so there aremore of them, andhence, more bites. It is ridicu-lous to ban or punish a certainbreed. In the ‘60s, Dobermanswere vilified, then Germanshepherds, now it’s pit bulls. In

the next decade, it may be chi-huahuas. All. Dogs. Bite.”

Ariel Wulff

“Pit bulls should absolutelynot be banned. By banning pitbulls you are discriminatingagainstabreedofdogs. Ifadogis aggressive it’s because ofthe way it was raised not be-cause of its breed. If it’s OK todiscriminateagainst abreedofdogs, then why is it wrong todiscriminate against certainhuman races or religions oranything.”

Chelsea Seitz

“Pit bulls should not bebanned. Breed-specific legis-lation does not work. Severalbreeds or dogs that are mixedare just likely to attack as a pitand can do just as much dam-age. Just as every human, ev-ery dog is different.”

Gina Stegner

“I do not believe a ban isnecessary for one isolatedbreedofdog.Anydog,whetherprovoked or not, has the capa-bility of biting. The safest andmost sure way of preventingdogbites is tohaveproper lawsin place and enforce responsi-ble dog ownership. Ownersshould have their dogs trainedto their commandsandsee thatthedog is either ona leashor ina safe enclosed space at alltimes. Electric fences do notprevent another dog or personfrom entering their space. So Ifeel these have little value. Ipersonally had a strong blacklab break through his invisiblefence as I walked by. Fortu-nately itwas friendlybuthad itnot been the owner was notpresent and I would have beenstrictly on my own. It was avery frightening experience.When a master has to be awayfrom its dog he should be surethe dog is in a safe enclosedarea. Safe for the dog and alsosafe for anyone who the dogmight see. Just as people, alldogs have their own personal-ities, but most are smart andwhen owned by a responsiblelovingandcaringperson, thesetypes of incidents can be con-trolled and even prevented.”

McAuley hosts volunteersof Catholic Heart WorkcampA national organization

called Catholic HEARTWorkcamp, and 100teens from six states

and 25 adult volunteers, calledMcAuley High School home forthe first week of July.

Catholic HEART Workcampis about service, connection andlovingothers. Itbeganmodestlyin1993 in Orlando, Florida, with100 participants, and has grownto over 14,000 per year. CHWCprovides parish youth groups,teens and adult leaders serviceopportunities to restore homesand HEARTS, feed the hungry,lift the spirits of children, bringjoy to the elderly and disabledand offer assistance while part-nering with social agencies.

Each workcamp is equippedwith a summer staff, director,manager, musician, nurse andpriests to celebrate Mass/con-fession. It is a youth-friendly,Christ- centeredweek of caringfor others. Catholic HEARTWorkcampfaithfully andenthu-siastically serves the RomanCatholic Church and its teach-ingsand is anexcellent opportu-nity to “love the least of these”.The group atMcAuley includedteens from Ohio, Kentucky,Oklahoma, Louisiana, IllinoisandMichigan.

Leading theCatholicHEARTWorkcamp were managers Edand Karen Brutz of ColerainTownship,whouse twoweeksoftheir vacation time each sum-mer to lead two camps. The rou-tine of the week for the partici-pants included: rising eachmorning at 6:15 a.m., off to thework site by 8 a.m., returning toMcAuley in the late afternoonfor showers and free time, earlyeveningMass offered each day,dinner, evening inspirationalprogram, which included con-temporary, upbeat, live musicand videos, late evening oppor-tunity to pray the rosary, and fi-nally, lights out at 11 p.m. In ad-dition, much emphasis was puton team-building and growth inthe Catholic faith.

The McAuley group offeredtheir services, which includedpainting; building and rebuild-ing decks, stairs, etc,: workingwith children with disabilities;stocking food pantry items;yard work; and keeping Alz-heimer’spatients engaged inac-tivities. The beneficiaries oftheir labors were: BethanyHouse,BurlingtonHouse,Habi-tat for Humanity, Matthew 25:Ministries,OurLadyoftheHolySpirit Center, People WorkingCooperatively, St. Leo theGreatParish, St. Vincent de Paul and

Stepping Stones.Thedirector of the campwas

FatherJimKeiter, fromtheDio-cese of Omaha. He felt right at

home at McAuley, as he helpsout at a similar Sisters of Mer-cy-sponsored high school inOmaha.

Asmall samplingof the teenswas very enlightening. JakeMogan, from Circleville, re-cently graduated from highschoolandwill attendClevelandState University next year. Asan18-year-old,hewaspermitted

tousepower tools andhelpedanIndiana widow with repairs toher home so she could remain init. Christian Goode, also fromCircleville, will be a senior thisfall and was at the St. Leo loca-tion, painting a dining room,basement, and offices. He likestheCHWC format somuch, thatthis was his fourth summer,having previously served inMichigan, Kentucky and RhodeIsland.

The youngest volunteerswere going into eighth grade inthe fall. Morgan Miller decidedto participate because herbrother had also been a volun-teer in the past. She hailed fromAlexandria,LA,andwasexcitedto have worked at the food pan-try of St. Vincent de Paul.

Lindsey Veillon, a risingninth-grader from Leesville,Louisiana, worked at SteppingStones all week. She was reallyenjoying her first CHWC andCincinnati, and was looking for-ward to a trip to Kings Islandwhen the work was over.

These teens were polite, en-ergetic, respectful and spirited.The Brutzes called the CHWC“the best twoweeks of our sum-mer.”Theyhad led aprior campearlier inJuneatwhichtheyandthe campers stayed at La SalleHigh School, using it as theirhome base. Karen shared, “It isveryrewarding tosee theyoungpeople bonding with one anoth-er and to witness them growingin their faith. We hope to con-tinue our relationship withMcAuley in the future.”

REUNIONS

BrynMooth, who writes thefood blog Writes4Food.com,among other creative endeav-ors, stopped by my home lastweek to visit my herb garden

and chat.We found out

we had lots incommon when itcomes to foodand gardening,though I will sayBryn looks waytoo young to beso accomplished.Her blog hasdoable, reallygood recipes

with beautiful photos. One thatcaught my eye recently washer French picnic salad in ajar. Oh my gosh, I wanted todig into the photo with a fork,it looked that good. I’m sharingthe recipe here.

By the way, this fall she’ll bepublishing her book “The Find-lay Market Cookbook” withstories and recipes that cele-brate our unique and historicFindlay Market. The bookfocuses on food that vendorsare proud to sell along withtheir stories and histories.

MyMom and Dad drovetheir Chevy to Findlay justabout every week when wewere kids. They had certainfavorite vendors who knewthem by name just like I dotoday. Mom and Dad alwaysgot good bargains, witnessedby a trunk load of ethnic foodsfor our Lebanese table!

Bryn’s French picnicsalad in a jar

Bryn says: “A beautifullayered salad in a jar (She usedaWeck .5LMold jar), perfectfor transporting to a picnic or,less romantically, to the office.

You could spin this salad-in-a-jar thing a million differentways, but I went for a riff onthe classic French nicoisesalad, with steamed potatoes,green beans and a mustardyvinaigrette. If you layer thedressing on the bottom and the

lettuce on the top, then yoursalad ingredients stay nice andfresh and crisp until you’reready to eat, at which point yousimply shake the jar to distrib-ute the dressing, and stickyour fork all the way to thebottom to get a bit of every-thing in one bite.”

Salad8 to 10 small cherry or

grape tomatoes1/2 cup shredded cooked

chickenHandful fresh green beans,

trimmed to 1-inch lengths3 little fingerling potatoesFew pitted black olives3-4 leaves of butter lettuce,

cut into thin ribbonsMustardy vinaigretteWhisk together:1/3 cup white-wine or cham-

pagne vinegar3 tablespoons Dijon mus-

tard1 tablespoon honey1/2 cup olive oilSalt & pepperPrepare green beans and

potatoes: In a pot of boilingsalted water, cook potatoesuntil just tender, about 8 to 10minutes; remove with slottedspoon to colander to cool. Tothe same pot, add beans andblanch for 1minute; transfer tocolander and run under verycold water to stop cooking.Slice potatoes into roundsabout 1/4-inch thick.

Spoon a generous table-spoon of dressing into bottomof jar, then layer rest of ingre-

dients in this order: cherrytomatoes, shredded cookedchicken, green beans, slicedpotatoes, black olives and,finally, lettuce. Keep refriger-ated until about 30 minutesbefore serving. Shake jar todistribute dressing.

Rita’s freshpeppermint iced tea

For Matt, who has an abun-dance of mint and asked: “Howdo I substitute fresh mint forthe amount of mint that’s in ateabag?”

Take a generous couplehandful of mint leaves andcrush them a little betweenyour palms or with a spoon torelease the healthful oils. Placeinto a large mug or jar. Pour 2cups simmering water over,cover and steep about 10 min-utes. Strain and taste. Addmore water if you like. Cooland pour over ice. I like tosweeten it with raw honey orStevia and serve with a wedgeof citrus.

Tips from Rita’s gardenAlong with vitamin C, mint

is a good digestive herb andthe tea is a natural coolant.

It’s true. Regular oil changes, tune-ups and maintenance can help improve your vehicle’s performance and gasmileage, extend its life and increase its resale value. It can also help reduce traffic congestion due to preventablebreakdowns. But possibly most important of all, taking good care of your car could help reduce emissions bymore than half. And that should make you breathe a lot easier between oil changes. So keep it up because…
