Evendale’s council is consid-ering a salary hike for futurecouncil members, but not all vil-lage citizens agreewith it.

ThestatemadechangestotheOhio Public Employee Retire-

ment System in the last year, re-quiringpublicemployeestoearnat least $12,000 a year to qualifyfor public health retirementbenefits. Council members inEvendale earn about $7,800 an-nually, which would not qualifythem for those benefits.

Village council proposed rais-

ing the monthly salary of futurecouncil members to $1,000 amonth, which would qualifythem for public benefits. Theircurrent salaries are about 9 per-cent of the county commission-ers’,whichwassetbythestate.Ifthe increase is approved, onlycouncil members who are elect-

ed during this year’s generalelection in November would re-ceive that higher salary.

Phil Schneider, a formerEvendale council member, saidhe objected to the salary in-crease, adding thatmany villagevolunteers aren’t paid anythingfor their time.He continued that

out of 350 villages in Ohio, onlyeight have councils where itsmembers make as much asEvendale’s.

difficult to get people torun for public office ifthose benefits aren’t inplace. Schneider said thathe and others who have

run for council weren’taware of the benefitswhen they ran and foundout about them later.

“I honestly don’t thinkthesalaryandthebenefitsthat go with it will drivepeople to run for council,”he said.

Jim Cole, resident and

former president of theGorman Heritage Farm’sboard of directors, saidthat to him it’s less aboutthemoneyandmoreaboutthe image it projects. Headded that giving a raisewithout adding responsi-bilitiesdoesn’t reflectpos-itivelyforEvendaletosur-rounding communities.

“I’m not concernedabout the dollars, but theimage,” he said. “Every-one knows Evendale isflush with money ... I’msympathetic to the needfor it, but think about theimage thiswill project.”

Councilwillhave thefi-nal reading of the ordi-nance at its regular meet-ingSept.10,andcouldvoteon it then.

Evendale is the newsite of the CincinnatiShriners and I was hon-ored to meet with 2013Syrian Shrine PotentateRandall A. Proctor andRecorder Gary Caudill.

Randall lives in DelhiTownship andjoined the Masonsin 1990. He wasdirector of the“Oriental Band”for five years andis the 1994-1998Past Master of hislodge, one of 193Masonic lodges inOhio. Randall isgrateful to hisemployer, Profes-sional Mainte-nance of Cincinnati Inc.for giving him the oppor-tunity to pursue hisdream of becoming po-tentate.

When you considerthat the average age ofpotentates is 70 years,Randall feels especiallyblessed. In his pocket hecarries a copy of hisacceptance speech bywhich he expressed hispride in being a Shrinerand his dedication to allthey are about.

As recorder, Gary is incharge of the businessside. Although a volun-teer organization, theannual budget for Cincin-nati operations is $43million. Born in WestChester Township, hestill resides there.

Gary earned his PhDin business from Xavierand is past chairman ofthe Shriners HospitalBoard, past treasurerand Past Potentate.There is never a chargefor care provided at any

Shriners Hospital. Theirburn hospital on BurnetAvenue is one of four inthe nation. They alsoprovide reconstructionfor cleft lips and cleftpalates and spinal cordinjury rehabilitation. The

Shriners have 18orthopedic hospi-tals.

It is not pos-sible to quantifythe joy they bring.Their biggestfundraiser is theShrine Circus, butthere are otherevents such as fishfries, raffles, rum-mage sales andspaghetti dinners,

all to fulfill their missionto help a child. Can any-thing be more honorable?

Gary is a wealth ofhistorical information. In1870, physician WalterFleming and actor Wil-liam “Billy” Florencewere among the Masonsin New York who dis-cussed starting a newMasonic fraternity lessconcerned with ritualand more focused on funand fellowship. Florencehad attended a partygiven by an Arabiandiplomat and suggestedan Arabian theme. Flem-ing built this idea into theAncient Arabic Order ofthe Nobles of the MysticShrine (AAONMS). Thefirst meeting was heldSept. 26, 1872. Many nota-bles are Shriners, amongthem Evendale’s MayorDon J. Apking.

The Cincinnati Shrin-ers began 136 years agoand is the sixth oldesttemple in North Americawith 1,675 members who

come fromNorthernKentucky and Indiana aswell as here. Formerlylocated in the ScottishRite Cathedral down-town, they subsequentlymoved to WilliamHow-ard Taft Road beforesettling in Evendale.

Gary related that after9/11many people thoughtthey were connected tothe Middle East, and sosome chapters stoppedusing the term “temple”

and began using “center.”In his office hangs alarge, impressive framedreplica of the charterfrom the Imperial GrandCouncil granting permis-sion to open the Templeof the Mystic Shrine inCincinnati, signed onFeb. 6, 1877, along with areproduction of the 1881reorganization of thetemple.

Look for future in-formation on how indi-

viduals and businessescan contribute to thebuilding of a new shelterhouse. An office staff ison duty daily and can bereached at 513-751-3800.Their website issyrianshrine.org whereyou will find many otherfascinating facts aboutthem and how this gener-

ous fraternity benefits somany.

SHARONVILLE — The beauty andfrustration of golf lie in the sameplace. Consistency.

Any Joe off the street canmake agood swing and hit the ball rightdown the middle once in a while.Any pro can shank a ball into theweeds on occasion.

The Princeton High School boysgolf team knows the feeling.

On a team devoid of superstars,the Vikings made school historywinning by winning their first 10dual matches to open the season.

“We don’t have anybody who is astar,” head coachBruceBagley. “Allsix of my varsity guys have been amedalist at least once. Each of myguys has shot under 40. For us, if wecan get them all to play their best onthe same day, that’s when we can dosomething special.”

Senior Jeremy Abbott serves asteam captain, a mantle he wears un-comfortably.

“It means a lot, but at the sametime it doesn’t,” Abbott said. “Ourplay is pretty even andwe takemul-tiple scores every week. I’m notreally the captain type in terms of

being a cheerleader. I just want toplay well, lead by example.”

Abbott took up golf in middleschool when he learned it was an op-tion instead of soccer.

“It’s quiet,” he said. “That suitsmypersonality. You get to staywith-in yourself and concentrate.”

Strictly by the numbers Abbott isthe third-leading scorer on the teambehind Andrew Brooks and Adam

Wagers. But he plays in theNo.1slotin the lineup because Bagley saidhe’s the most – wait for it – consis-tent player on the team.

“I keeppushing the idea of a teamconcept,” Bagley said. “I tell myNo.1guyhe’s going to have to beplayingthe other team’s best, that he’s goingto take some shots. But he just has tostay within striking distance, keepwithin a few strokes, and then we’llwin the match with our two, threeand four players.”

All six varsity golfers playedbaseball for the Vikings in thespringandsuffered througha three-win season.

“Youneverwant togetused to thepoint where you get used to (los-ing),” Bagley said. “We struggled alot last year –wewere second-to-lastin the league - but we’re not compla-cent. I think the work the kids havedone shows how much they want towin.”

WYOMING — It’s been four years sinceWyoming High School won the CincinnatiHills League title in girls soccer.

Under second-year head coach LaurenGruber, a group of girls that ranged fromfifth to eighth-grade in 2009 is trying tochange that.

Early non-conference losses to RossandKings and a tough1-0 defeat to leaguerival Madeira gave the Cowboys a slowstart. The out-of-league opponents also in-clude Summit Country Day, CincinnatiCountry Day, Seton, Edgewood, SevenHills andMcNicholas.

Translation?Nothing will come easy this fall.“We have a lot of Division I schools on

the schedule and theCHLgirls are alwaystough,” Gruber said.

Leading the chase are senior captainsEmmaKlug,KelseyBrunsman,CarlyVar-land and junior captain/goalkeeper OliviaMunneke.

“We usually have one junior captainjust to have some experience (the follow-ing year),” Gruber said.

All of the Wyoming captains haveplayed since they were freshmen. Klugand Varland were both CHL second teamas juniors. As for Munneke, it’s her firstyear starting after being varsity back-upthe past two seasons.

Along with the veterans, Gruber expe-rienced a talent influx from the middleschool with this season.

“We have a really strong senior classand a core of freshman and they’re reallykind of gelling together,” Gruber said.“The seniors have done a great job of put-ting the young players under their wingand making them feel comfortable.”

Freshman forward Kayla HamptonwasWyoming’s top scorer in the early go-ing despite missing a few games. Fresh-man midfielders Jasmine Evans and Ca-seyJervieralsostartandEmilyDudek isadefender off the bench.

Seniors Varland and Brunsman alsoprovide some scoring punch.

“It’s been pretty even,” Gruber said.“We really don’t have a ‘go-to’ scorer. Wehave girls that are stepping up when weneed them to.”

Brunsman, Hampton, Anna Kamphausand Katie Sena follow coach Gruber tobasketball in thewinter,where she’s anas-sistant to Gerry Lackey. However, she’sfocused on foot dribbling now as the Cow-boysaimtokickaheadoutdoorsbefore theballs bounce inside.

“It’s kind if up for grabs between Ma-deira, Indian Hill (and) Mariemont, andwe try to compete too,” Gruber said.

The biggest adjustment forWyoming’syoungergirls is not somuch the skill level,but the style of play. Gruber’s plan is tokeep the freshmen fresh with teachablemoments from game experience.

“They’re having a little difficult time

A publication of

Ohio Gov. John Kasichcooked up JobsOhio, a public-private hybrid non-profit, os-tensibly to put more Ohioans ingainful employment.

JobsOhio was created byKasich in 2011 as a way to shifteconomic development policyfrom the state-funded Depart-ment of Development to thenew agency, which is fundedby the state and private com-panies.

JobsOhio board membersare appointed solely by Kasich.

Democrats have asked theOhio Ethics Commission toinvestigate JobsOhio, claimingthat a number of the boardmembers, as well as Kasichhimself, have ties to the com-panies being helped with Job-sOhio funds.

“You cannot have peoplethat are sitting on the board ofdirectors of JobsOhio having

their companies di-rectly benefit. Youcannot have a gover-nor that is supposedto be looking out forall Ohioans lookingout for all industry,receiving benefitsfrom a company andthey’re getting taxbreaks in return,”State Sen. Joe Schia-voni said.

JobsOhio is exempt frompublic disclosure of spending.And, as a private entity, it isnot subject to the state’s openmeetings and records laws,ethics rules, or other require-ments that generally affectState agencies. State Rep. MikeDuffey sponsored HB1whichestablished JobsOhio and all ofits shields.

The Ohio Ethics Commis-sion has quickly fallen in line

with the legislativeshields provided forJobsOhio.

Since the Commissionhas limited jurisdictionand is unable to dig intocomplaints concerningJobsOhio, Ohio EthicCommission ChairmanMerom Brachman hasdismissed them out ofhand.

By the way, MeromBrachman contributed to Duf-fey’s campaign. And, Brach-man has given thousands ofdollars to Kasich’s campaignefforts in recent years.

Should we connect the dots?Two Ohio lawmakers, State

Sen. Mike Skindell and StateRep. Dennis Murray, haveteamed with ProgressOhio.orgin a lawsuit against JobsOhio.

The thrust of the legal chal-lenge argues Kasich has vio-

lated the State Constitution.Under the JobsOhio plan, Kas-ich chairs a board of eightCEOs. This chairmanship, thesuit claims, runs counter toprovisions in the statute thatforbid governors from runningbusinesses while in office. Thecomplaint has been filed withthe Ohio Supreme Court.

Kasich has launched a $1.4million JobsOhio media buytargeting Ohio residents.

In a letter to Kasich, Cuya-hoga County Executive EdFitzGerald (potential 2014opponent) raised some seriousquestions.

“I write to express my con-cern about your recent use of$1.4 million in state funds toplace television and print adsthat are an improper waste ofstate funds and seem intendedto boost your gubernatorialre-election effort rather than

actually help with economicdevelopment here in-state.”

On top of it all, why did theRepublican-controlled OhioGeneral Assembly recentlypass a measure prohibitingRepublican State Auditor DaveYost from auditing JobsOhio?

What are they hiding?Ethics violations?Conflicts of interest?State Constitution viola-

tions?Cronyism?Corruption?Or something worse?It just may be Kasich and

JobsOhio are doing a real jobon Ohio.

Sept. 4 questionDo you think the U.S. is safer now that it

was12 years ago, before the Sept. 11attacks?What doyoumost remember about that day?

“No, I don't think we're safer.“We have a president who is muchmore

interested in his personal popularity andvacations than taking care of our country.To be fair about it, I don't think he's capableof the job and doesn't have the sense to ap-point people who are.

“I pray that we get through the nextthree years without another 9-11.”

J.K.

“We probably are safer than we were 12years ago, but it's thekindof statistic that isdifficult to quantify because of politicalbickeringand ignoranceofmost of thepub-lic.

“It's also true that many attacks mayhavebeenthwarted,but thekindofworkbycounter-intelligence people that preventsthem is secret and unknown to most of us.That's why it's generally 'classified.'

“I remember being in my classroomteachingmy seventh grade a story that hadManhattan as its setting and worrying themilitary might shoot down the jet overPennsylvania before it circled back aroundtoWashington.”

TRog“Personally I never felt unsafe before or

after9-11. Itwasatragedy,butwhenyouareraised practicing hiding under your deskbecause of anuclear attackyou tend to takethe event with a different perspective.

“When it occurred I was in my home of-fice. My wife yelled and my immediatecomment upon seeing it on TV was that itwas Bin Laden.

“I told her that Pres. Clinton hadwarnedthe incoming administration to watch outfor him, but they ignored him on that andjust about everything else due to their arro-gance.Thesecondplaneconfirmedmysup-position.”

J.Z.

“Yes, if your question asks about ‘fromforeignterrorists.’No, ifyourquestionasksabout ‘from our re-elected leaders.’

“While deeply saddened that day and forsome period after that day, the bombersknew they could ruin our country if theycould make our re-elected officials runamok with our freedoms ... obviously, thishas happened. It’s my biggest fear, and it isongoing.”

K.P.

“The Homeland Security Act is one ofthebiggestRepublican slush funds inhisto-ry. Anyone who looks at the expenditureswill be depressed by the wastedmoney.

“Hiring people to look at your under-wear is not making you safer. And most ofthemoneygoes toRepublicancontributors,not the idiots you see at the airport.

“Israel accomplishes greater securitywithout body scans.

“Ican'tgetover thewaytheRepublicanshave hijacked the issue of personal securi-ty. They increase personal insecurity bypassinggun lawswhichallowmorons to ob-tain guns.

“Weallknowthat theNRAisaneffectiveinfluence on Congress, but howmany of usrealize that the NRA is simply and exclu-sively a lobbying front forgunmanufactur-ers?

“We cannot be effective if we do not usethe brains we have been endowed with.

“Thealternative is adeclininghuman in-telligence.

N.F.

“I don't know if we are safer or not? Itdepends on howmuch our governmentwillallow us to know and how that informationis processed by them.

“IguessifIhadtopickIwouldsayAmer-ica is not as safe as before 911because I be-lievewewill always haveMuslimswantingto destroy our way of life.”

Aug. 28 questionShouldfansatsportingeventshavetocon-

form to a “code of conduct”? What types ofbehavior should be regulated?

“I’m a fan of theXavierMusketeers andthe Cincinnati Cyclones and when I go togames at Cintas Center and U.S. Bank Are-na, I feel I have the right to yell as loud as Iwant as long as it is not offensive to other-s...that is called home court/field/ice advan-tage.

“As I get older, I don’t get as ‘rowdy’ as Iused to, but I still yell at players, coachesand of course referees, however I keep itclean with the language and by somechance if I do say one of the no no words, Iapologize to those aroundme.

"Withthisbeingsaid, Ican’tstanditwhenfans around me tell me to keep it down ormove because of your yelling or even lookat you like you’re fromMars.

“Ifyouwantquiet,donotcometoasport-ing event! This ain’t a religous service!

“In closing, I go to sporting events towatch thegameandhave fun andhopefullyrootmy teamonto victory, butmore impor-tantly just to release some stress from ev-eryday living...keep it clean...but, keep itloud!”

NEXT QUESTIONShould local high schools have AmericanIndian nicknames or use American Indianmascots. Why or why not?

Every week we ask readers a question they can replyto via e-mail. Send your answers [email protected] with Chatroomin the subject line.

Barack Obama twice nowhas taken an oath to “faithfullyexecute the office of Presidentof the United States, and …preserve, protect, and defendthe Constitution of the UnitedStates.” And within that Consti-tution is the following require-ment of a president: “He shalltake Care that the Laws befaithfully executed…”

I would submit that thispresident has, and continues to,violate his oath of office byknowingly and flagrantly ignor-ing his obligation tosee that our nation’slaws are faithfullyexecuted. The follow-ing are specific ex-amples.

President Obamadoesn’t like the factthat Congress hasrefused to legalizeillegal aliens whowere brought into thiscountry (illegally) aschildren. So, he justunilaterally ordered his im-migration service to ignore thelaw, and do so anyway. Thisflagrant violation of the lawjust happened to take placeshortly before the 2012 elec-tion, when the Hispanic votewas considered so important.

Next, welfare reform. I wasaround in 1996 when a Repub-lican Congress and a Demo-cratic president, Bill Clinton,passed historic welfare reformlegislation which, among otherthings, implemented work re-quirements in return for re-ceiving a welfare check.

Some liberal groups gotPresident Obama’s ear andconvinced him that work re-quirements are demeaning andmean-spirited. So, in flagrantviolation of the letter and spiritof the law, Obama unilaterallygave governors the power toweaken the work requirements.Fortunately, a lot of Republicangovernors chose to continue toenforce work requirements asenacted, but a number of “en-lightened” Democrat governorstook advantage of the opportu-

nity to weaken the work re-quirements, and thus greatlyundermined welfare reform.

Next, Obamacare. This isarguably President Obama’smost significant accomplish-ment (or greatest failure, de-pending on one’s point of view).Among other things, the lawrequires employers to coveremployees under Obamacare,or pay significant fines (theemployer mandate). Obama,without consulting with theelected representatives of the

American people, the Con-gress, unilaterally an-nounced that this aspectof the program would bedelayed for one year. He’sbreaking the law, or at thevery least, not enforcingthe law as it is currentlywritten.

Most recently, the Oba-ma Justice Departmenthas decided that our fed-eral drug laws are tootough, so they’re just not

going to enforce them. Unbe-lievable!

The bottom line is … it’s thepresident of the United States’responsibility to see that ourlaws are enforced. To do other-wise is a violation of the sacredoath he took, twice, to “takeCare that the Laws be faithfullyexecuted.”

In this respect, PresidentObama reminds me of anotherpresident who had a similarview about the law, RichardNixon. Nixon was once asked ifit was okay for a president todo an illegal act, if that presi-dent believed it was in the bestinterest of the country to do so.Nixon’s response was, “Whenthe president does it, thatmeans that it’s not illegal.”

Of course, we know whereRichard Nixon ended up withthat kind of thinking.

Every cloud has asilver lining. There’s areason for everything.Being challenged in life isinevitable, being defeatedis optional. Our familyfriend, Ruth AnnAshburn, couldhave quoted thesesayings after astormwreckedhavoc with two ofher favorite trees:Amaple sheraised from asapling and thetallest wild cher-ry tree I’ve everseen. My hus-band, Frank, and I wentover to help. Frankbrought his saw and tack-led the smaller limbs. Theprofessionals came in forthe rest. The silver lininghere is we now have agood amount of woodaging for next year.

The storm alsoknocked a lot of our ap-ples off our trees, so I hadto use the fallen ones up.Granddaughter Eva and Imade applesauce for herlittle sister, Emerson. Shewashed the apples and Ichunked them up for theslow cooker. I also de-hydrated some apples andhave apple leather/rollupsdrying in the sun. Checkmy blog for those recipesplus photos.

Chris Lipnick’s appleblossom cake

Chris, a Kentuckyreader, immigrated to thiscountry fromGermany.Chris, like my daughter-in-law Inge, is an expertbaker. Chris shared thisrecipe a while back and Iget requests for it when

apple season rolls around.Amoist and “good keep-er” cake. “Everyonewants the recipe,” Christold me.

3 eggs2 cups sugar11⁄4 cups canola oil3 cups all-purposeflour

1⁄2 teaspoon eachcinnamon, nutmeg,cloves, salt

11⁄2 teaspoons bakingsoda

1 teaspoon vanilla3 cups peeled andchopped apples(Chris likes Granny

Smith)1 cup chopped pecans orwalnuts

Preheat oven to 350degrees and grease andflour Bundt pan. Beatsugar and eggs untilcreamy. Add oil slowlyand beat until blended.Sift flour with spices, saltand soda. Pour into eggmixture and blend. Addvanilla, apples and nuts.Blend well and pour intopan. Bake 11⁄4 hours. Cooland remove from pan.Dust with powdered sug-ar or make glaze of lemonjuice and powdered sug-ar.

Kathy L.’s poorman’s lobster

I knew I could count onyou! A reader who hadlost her recipe and washoping beyond all hopethat I could help find itrequested this. “I’vemade this quite a bit al-though not recently. Thisrecipe is probably at least20 years old. Since I dust-ed this off, I think I will

fix it again soon,” Kathysaid.

1 lb. cod frozen, thawedenough to cut (about 1hour at roomtemperature)

2 cups water3 tablespoons cider vinegar2 teaspoons salt3 tablespoons butter1⁄2 teaspoon paprika

Cut each block of fil-lets into equal chunkseach about 1-inch square.In a medium saucepan,bring water, vinegar andsalt to a boil over moder-ately high heat. Add fishchunks and reduce heat tomoderate and simmer 15minutes until fish isopaque in center. Use anovenproof pan andmeltthe butter in it. Removefish with slotted spoonand place in a single layerin prepared pan. Sprinkle

fish with paprika andspoon butter over fish.Broil 3 to 5 inches fromheat source for about 5minutes, spooning butterover fish once.

Roasted smashedpotato cakes

For Susan B., an East-side reader, who ate theseat a restaurant. “Theywere seasoned with justsalt and pepper, and gar-nished with chives,” shesaid.

About 2 pounds small orbaby potatoes (I usedmylittle garden potatoes)

Olive oilSalt and pepper to tasteOnion chivesSour cream (optional)

Cook potatoes anddrain. Preheat oven to 450degrees. Brush bakingsheet with oil and heat in

oven for 5 minutes. Whenpotatoes are cool enoughto handle, gently flattenand brush with oil, andadd seasonings. Roastabout 15 minutes or so.Turn over and roast untilgolden, another 15min-utes or so. Garnish withchives and side of sour

cream.

I’ve received severale-mails recently claimingto come from the postoffice and Federal Ex-press telling me theywere unable todeliver a package.

The e-mailslook suspiciousand, upon check-ing, I’ve learnedI’m one of manypeople receivingthem.

Two such e-mails came inAugust, allegedlyfrom the UnitedStates Postal Service,askingme to downloadand print out a label, thentake it at the nearest postoffice. Fortunately, Ididn’t do that because itcould have caused bigproblems.

Federal Express has awarning on its websitesaying scammers areusing its corporate logo,colors and legal disclaim-ers to make them appearauthentic. But it says thisis all just a scam to trickyou into divulging yourpersonal or account in-formation. Scammerscould try to get you tosend themmoney or dosomething else that willresult in you getting de-frauded.

FedEx says these e-mail attacks have beengoing on for the past fewyears because they arelow-tech and can easily bedeployed on amassivescale. These so-called“phishing” scams con-tinue to fool people – andsome contain a virus thatwill be unleashed on your

equipment if you down-load anything they send.That virus can be used tosteal personal informa-tion from your computer.

FedEx says themain thing thescammers want isto collect user-names, passwords,Social Securitynumbers, and cred-it card details.Consumer Reportssays one of itsstaffers receivedone of these e-mailslast year which

stated he’d have to pay afee if he failed to act.

Like FedEx, the U.SPostal Service has awarning on its websiteabout e-mails claiming tobe from the postal serviceseeking online postagecharges or telling of at-tempted or interceptedpackage deliveries. Postalofficials say you shoulddelete these messageswithout taking furtheraction. It says, “The Post-al Inspection Service isworking hard to resolvethe issue and shut downthemalicious program.”

Remember, neitherFedEx nor the post officewill send you an e-mail. Ifthey need you, they’lldrop a note off at yourhome or send you a letter.They have your address,but not your e-mail in-formation.

When you need a 65-foot duck with sunglassesinflated and installed onthe Ohio River bank, whowould you call?

That was the questionfaced by Great AmericanMerchandise & Events ofScottsdale,AZ.Theywant-ed the 1,100-pound “GiantQuacky” duck to sit onNewport’s riverbank topromote the FreestoreFoodbank’s Rubber DuckRegatta. So theycontactedone of the country’s fore-most experts on inflat-ables who just happen tobe headquartered in Cin-

cinnati.Located near I-75 and

Glendale-Milford Road,ASAP Event Advertisinginstalls inflatables largeand small throughout thecountry. The team in-cludes Mark Phillips(chief attention getter),Vicki Berling, Brit Ulrich,Brooke Ungerbuehler,Maria Marack, Betsy

Findlay, Brittany Moe andBob Woods. Installing theduck required 10 crewmembers working forthree hours to position it,and then 35 minutes to in-flate it. In addition tomorethanahalfmileofrope, theteam used 600 gallons ofwater to help prevent itfrom taking a swim downthe Ohio River.

That’s oneenormousduck
