A7 BELLEVUE No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are wel- come at the Nativity, accord- ing to the Rev. Keith Haith- cock. That’s the message St. John United Church of Christ in Bellevue wants to share Fri- day, Dec. 5, as they invite the community to gather together once again for the Nativity Processional. “I think this is an important community event because al- though this is a Christian cele- bration, it is also a way to in- clude and involve some who would never come to church and others who are not Chris- tian but still want to celebrate the reason for the season, as so many say, in a way that is non-threatening and engag- ing,” Haithcock said. The procession will begin at 6:30 p.m. at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, 306 Center St. It proceeds north on Taylor Avenue to Poplar Street then turns right on to Poplar to- ward Washington Avenue. The procession will turn left on Washington and proceed to Fairfield Avenue and turn right going on to St. John Unit- ed Church of Christ, 520 Fair- field Ave. “Everyone is invited and welcome to participate in the Nativity Processional,” he said. “Bring banners, candles, drums, tambourines, glow sticks, flash lights and other festive lights and musical in- struments for the procession. All children are invited to dress as their favorite Nativ- ity character.” Haithcock said the proces- sion will conclude with a fes- tive community carol sing, words of welcome, the read- ing of the Christmas story, special music, and a dedica- tion prayer. Clergy from a va- riety of Northern Kentucky churches will participate. Afterward participants are invited to visit the Christ- mas Shoppe at the church fea- turing rummage sale items and the “Hall of Chocolate” where free hot chocolate will be given, he said. According to Haithcock this is the 43rd year that the Nativity has been on display in Bellevue. Each year the community has gathered for a dedication of the first Christ- mas scene. In previous years the display has been erected in the city’s Nagel Park.

year, the former owner ofthe Nativity, the BellevueNeighborhood Associa-tion, donated it to thechurch.

Mayor Ed Riehl, whohas participated in thegathering for “many,many years,” said it’s agreatway to start theholi-day season in the city.

“I think it issuchawon-derful way to bringfriendsand family togeth-er,andtocelebrateandre-flect on what the truemeaning of the Christmasseason is all about,” hesaid. “I think sometimeswe all get caught up in thehustle and bustle of shop-ping andneed to take timeto reflect as a communi-ty.”

Riehl said that St. Johnhas done “a wonderfuljob” taking over the dis-play. “I know they will begreat stewards of it,” hesaid. “They know how im-portant it is to thecommu-nity and the traditions

that come with it. I amglad they will continue todisplay it for all to see andenjoy for many years tocome.”

The Nativity will be ondisplayuntilTuesday,Jan.6.

Last year’s processionwasmetwith controversywith themovingof thedis-play from public to pri-vate property. There wasalso controversy whenseveral other Bellevuecongregations refused toparticipate due to St.John’s acceptance of allsexual orientations.

Still, Haithcock saidturnout last year wasstrong with more than 30participating in the pro-cession and 65 who gath-ered at the church in deep

snow.This year the St. John

congregation and thePrince of Peace LutheranChurch congregation,also in Bellevue, will bethe only churches partici-pating. Haithcock said hehopes for good weatherand more communitymemberswill participate.

“It is wonderful to seefolks of all kinds of back-ground recognizing theirdifferences in expres-sions of their faith butfinding a way to come to-gether through process-ing through candlelitstreets together, prayingtogether, reading Scrip-ture together, singing to-gether and celebratingthe birth of Christ’s to-gether,”hesaid. “I find itapowerful experience tobewith people of all back-grounds finding a com-mon thread in life andfaith enough to come to-gether rather than pullapart. Tome that is one ofthe powerful messages ofChristmas.”

BRIEFLY

FORT THOMAS — See-ing authors regularly vis-it Blue Marble Books isdesigned togive the storea year-round Small Busi-ness Saturday-type push.

The booksellerbrought in six authors tospeak with customers,readaloudandhelpguidepeople to books theywanted during AmericanExpress’ Small BusinessSaturday Nov. 29.

Bringing authors andillustrators to interactwith customers through-out theholidayseason isarevival of a store ShopLocal/Indies First cam-paign. There is a visitingauthor or new activity atthe store every month,said owner Peter Moore.

And as part of the na-tional Dec. 2 #Giving-Tuesday campaign, Blue

MarbleBooks is giving10percent discounts for do-nating canned goodsthrough Dec. 24, he said.Canned goods will go tothe Brighton Center inNewport.

Business was steadythroughout Small Busi-ness Saturday, Mooresaid. Typically, businesshappens “in spurts” asone or several familiescome inside the store atonce, he said.

Talking with the own-ers of two other FortThomas businesses,Moore said he wonderedhow they could market amonthly idea, likeaSmallBusiness Thursday.

“Frankly, from an eco-nomic standpoint it’s nicetoget someextracustom-ers in here on this oneday, but that can’t keepme going the other 12months of the year,” hesaid. “I’ve got to have

those regular customers,those repeat customersand people that find usfor some special reason.”

Kevin McIntosh andhis wife, Becky, of FortThomas, areregularBlueMarble customers.

“We have three chil-dren, and they like toread,” he said.

The McIntosheswalked into Blue Marbleon Small Business Satur-day with a list of books tobuy. McIntosh said theyvisited Fort Thomas Cen-tral and Monera ChicBoutique earlier in theday. They also planned tostop in at the new Fort

Thomas Antiques & De-sign Center.

Supporting favoritestores in Fort Thomasand along Fairfield Ave-nue in Bellevue is some-thing the familydoes reg-ularly, McIntosh said.

Mary Ries of FortThomassaidBlueMarblewas her third stop of theday.Shespecialorderedabook as a gift.

“I went to Monera,which is a clothing bou-tique, and actually gotsome gifts for my daugh-ter and my niece,” Riessaid.

Ries said she makes ahabit of shoppingat small

businesses and her chil-dren know she prefers toeat at non-chain restau-rants.

“I think it’s importantto support small busi-nesses, and actually Ithink the prices are com-parable to, you know, thechain stores,” Ries said.

Sharon M. Draper ofCincinnati came in tominglewithcustomersasa visiting author. Drapersaid she saw many of thebooks on theBlueMarbleshelves she read as ajudgefor the2014Nation-al Book Awards.

Draper’s latest book,“Stella by Starlight,” willbe released in January2015.

The book, based thelife of Draper’s grand-mother, is set in Bumble-bee, N.C., in 1932, shesaid. “My grandmother,when she was a child,wrote ina journal atnightby the light of themoon,”Draper said. “Becausethatwas theonly timeshehad to do it.”

Draper said her fatherinspired her to turn oneof her grandmother’sjournals into a book.

“This took me a longtime to do it, but this isher story, his story andthe story of all the peoplethat were growing up athe time,” she said.

In a move to help studentsget ahead or stay on track tograduate in four years, North-ern Kentucky University an-nounced Nov. 24 it will be put-ting stronger emphasis on itswinter term this year, whichconsists of online courses of-fered during a three-week ses-sion from Dec. 15 through Jan.6, 2015.

Winter term(nku.edu/winter.html) offerscurrent students, alumni, visit-ing students, and lifelong learn-ers an opportunity to completegoals or get ahead in their aca-demic careers. Students en-rolled in awinter termclass areeligible to earn up to three

course credits. The undergrad-uate and graduate courses areoffered in an accelerated for-mat allowing for intense explo-ration of a particular discipline,and all the courses are online.Topics range from introductoryanthropology and sociologycourses to upper-level coursesin history and leadership.

“Winter Term is a great op-portunity for students to pickup credit hours they need tokeep them on pace to graduatein four years,” said NKU Pro-vost and Executive Vice Presi-dent for Academic Affairs SueOtt Rowlands. “Students whodidn’t earn 15 or more hoursduring the fall semester can

earn three credit hours in threeweeks, helping to ensure theyare on track to graduate onschedule. Of course, it’s alsogreat for students who want tograduate in less than fouryears.”

Dr. Jonathan McKenzie, as-sistantprofessorofpolitical sci-ence, will be teaching an onlinecourse called Political Leader-ship,whichwill investigatepoli-tics on the federal and local lev-el. Mr. McKenzie said he paysspecial attention to creating thesyllabus for such an intensivecourse.

“We’ll be learning aboutwhat makes a good leader, andhow leaders emerge,” he said.

“For students it’s a good chanceto get a quick and in-depth lookat a topic. As a professor, I al-ways think the onus is on me tomake it more interesting andengagingwhenstudentshave towork on these classes for threehours a day.”

Dr. Andrea Lambert South,graduate program director andassociate professor in the De-partment of Communication,will alsobe teaching thiswinter.“I love teaching during the win-ter intersession,” she said. “Iteach an online Family Commu-nication course and it pairs per-fectly with many student expe-riences regarding their fam-ilies around the holiday season.

“Managing and negotiatingfamily joys and tensions is anear universal experience and Ihave the privilege of being ableto teach a class that emphasizeswhat we know about familycommunication and decon-structs and normalizes whatcan seem to be impossible fam-ily members or situations,” shesaid. “I teach the Family Com-munication course all through-out the year and the winter in-tersession online course resultsin the best discussion and per-sonal stories that exemplify thehighs and lows of family life.”

OK, so Thanksgivingis over and now the realhectic rush begins. Wefinished stringing lights

on theoutdoorpines andare puttingup thewreaths onthe win-dows latertoday.There willbe a lot ofactivity inmy kitchenas well.

My somewhat loftygoal this year is to haveall the food gifts finisheda week ahead of Christ-mas. Stay tuned…

Baked acorn squashwith nutmeg,cinnamon andbrown sugar

I saw this on TV andliked the fact that itwasn’t overly loaded withsugar, butter, cream, etc.You can make as many asyou like.

I showed these on Fox19 when I did the week-end show with DanWellsand Jessica Brown. Theywanted side dishes forthe holidays for a smallfamily. This fills the billand would be a nice ac-companiment for thatholiday ham or pork.

Here’s my adaptation:2 acorn squashes, cut

in half and seededOlive oil3 tablespoons un-

salted butter1/4 cup dark or light

brown sugar1/2 teaspoon salt1/4 teaspoon each,

freshly grated nutmegand cinnamon

Preheat oven to 400°F.Rub the inside of the

squashes with olive oil.Place on sprayed pancut-side down. Bake for30-40 minutes or until

soft.While the squash

bake, prepare the brownsugar mixture. In a smallpot, combine the butter,brown sugar, salt andspices over low heat.Heat until butter meltsand sugar dissolves.When the squash halvesare ready, flip them overand drizzle the brownsugar mixture on theinside cavity.

Place the pan in theoven for an additional5-10 minutes or untilbrown and bubbling.

Slow cookerbreakfast egg andsausage casserole

A perennial favorite. Ilike to thaw the hashbrowns a bit, but some ofmy readers like to pourthe frozen hash brownsstraight from the bag.Now remember yourslow cooker may take alittle less, or a little more,time. Last time I madethis I used 1-1/2 poundssausage, and it was good.

2 pounds frozenshredded hash browns -either shredded ordiced

1 to 1-1/2 poundssausage, cooked andcrumbled

1bunch green on-ions, finely sliced, bothwhite and green parts

1 pound shreddedcheese

12 eggs1/3 cupmilk1/2 teaspoon garlic

powder1/2 teaspoon dry

mustardSalt and pepperSpray 6-quart slow

cooker/crockpot. Layer1/3 potatoes on bottom,sprinkle with salt andpepper and top with 1/3sausage, sprinkle withsalt and pepper, add 1/3onions and cheese, sprin-kle with salt and pepper.

Repeat layers 2 moretimes, ending withcheese. Whisk eggs, milk,garlic powder and mus-tard. Cook on low 6-8hours or high 4-5.

Tip from reader’skitchen:

“Try a combo of hamand bacon instead ofsausage,” one readersuggested.

Kids in the kitchen:milk chocolatepeanut butter bark

My granddaughter,Emerson, loves milkchocolate and peanutbutter. She’ll be makingthis with me as a giftfrom the kitchen.

I put the peanuts in aheavy Ziplock and let herpound themwith a minia-ture Lebanese “indua” –an olive wood pestle.

1bag each, about 12ounces, milk chocolateand peanut butter chips

1 very generous cupor so chopped saltedpeanuts

Line cookie sheet withfoil. Melt chips and stirin peanuts. Pour ontocookie sheet about 1/4inches thick. Break intopieces after it is set.

By almost every measure, North-ern Kentucky’s first half marathonwas a success, according to its orga-nizer and one of its most experiencedrunners.

“We sold out with 1,100 partici-pants,” said Scott Spicher, founder ofthe Nov. 15 Honor Run Half Marathon.

“We were able to raise $27,000which will be presented to HonorFlight Tri-State at the Dec. 9 FlorenceCity Council meeting,” said Spicher,media systems coordinator for BooneCounty Schools.

“That will enable half of a plane ofveterans to see the memorials inWashington, D.C.,” Spicher said. TheHonor Flights fly veterans fromWorldWar II and the KoreanWar to Wash-ington, D.C., to see their memorials atno cost to the veterans.

The half marathon, which by defini-tion is 13.1miles, got a thumbs up froma Florence pediatrician who’s run overa dozen marathons including the Bos-tonMarathon.

“I thought it was great. I was reallyimpressed,” Dr. Robert Tagher said.

“For the first year as far the run-ners were concerned it went off with-out a hitch,” said Tagher, who came in11th. “It was well organized. It was agreat course. It was just challengingenough.”

Marathoners took off under theFlorence Y’all water tower, loopedaround FlorenceMall, sprintedthrough theMall Road and HoustonRoad business districts, galloped byTurfway Park Race Course, dartedbehind the Cincinnati/Northern Ken-tucky International Airport and sped

along Aero Parkway before turningback toward the mall and finishing atthe water tower.

Spicher, who coaches youth crosscountry at Boone County High School,said the idea for the half marathonactually came from his wife, who no-ticed there wasn’t such a race in

Northern Kentucky.He ran with the idea, and got advice

from officials of Cincinnati’s FlyingPigMarathon. When it came to plot-ting out the course, he got tips fromFlorence city government officialsJoshWice and Rick Lunnemann.

“The city was really good to work

with,” Spicer said, as were countyofficials in Boone County EmergencyManagement.

“We’re really happy with the way itcame out.”

Spicher went door to door along therace route to give businesses a headsup.

On race day, however, a few logisti-cal issues came up at with FlorenceMall employees delayed from gettingto work.

Spicher said only a few changeswould be made to the course in 2015.

“We’ll try to makeminor adjust-ments around the mall so traffic canmovemore freely,” he said.

Next year the race will be movedfrom Saturday to Sunday “to alleviatesome of the problems we had.”

So mark the date: The second Hon-or Run Half Marathon will be Sunday,Nov. 15, 2015.

“Our goal next year is to double ourattendance,” Spicher said.

Tagher, the Florence doctor andavid runner, said he believed a lotmore people would have signed up thisyear but the event sold out.

He was confident word will spreadso that doubling participation nextyear should be no problem.

Spicher, whose grandfather was aPOW duringWorldWar II, said he’dlike the half marathon to become aNorthern Kentucky tradition for theweekend after Veterans Day.

“To pull all those agencies togetherand pull off a first-class event” in-volved some stress, he said. But it wasdefinitely worth it when you considerit was “for the people who fought forour freedom.”

LaRosa’s Family Pizzeria isdedicated to supporting thecommunity-at-large by helpingour neighbors in need. Theholiday season reminds us toreflect on our blessings, whilealso recognizing and assistingfriends and members of ourcommunity facing challengingtimes.

We are particularly drawnto improve the harsh realitiesof hunger and food insecurityfacing members of our com-munity. This continues to be amajor issue in the GreaterCincinnati area, and the de-mands are growing as hun-dreds of thousands of individ-uals and families wonderwhere their next meal is com-ing from. In Greater Cincin-nati, the Feed America’s Mapthe Meal Gap found that thisuncertainty affects 289,940people, including 100,000 chil-dren.

The unemployment rate hasdropped over the past year,

which is goodnews, but theimprovementfails to gener-ate the neces-sary aware-ness of thegrim realityaffecting mil-lions of indi-viduals in ourcountry – hun-ger. Over 2million indi-

viduals in Ohio, almost 20 per-cent of the population, areclassified as food insecure.However, one-third of the hun-gry population does not qualifyfor federal nutrition programs,instead having to rely on foodassistance, from social serviceagencies.

Financial stress is cripplingfamilies locally, and not justthe unemployed. There aremany individuals working thatare still struggling to makeends meet. The strains have

caused people to change theirlifestyles, borrowmoney fromfriends and family, and evenmove in with others to get backon their feet.

For those individuals strug-gling to make it day-by-day,social service agencies like theFreestore Foodbank are bea-cons of hope. These organiza-tions are hands-on communityadvocates, spending time withtheir visitors and neighbors,getting to know them, anddetermining the best way tohelp. Whether providing food,clothing, job training, healthcare, housing, money manage-ment classes, or transporta-tion, these agencies tirelesslywork for those in need.

I visit our pizzerias fromBoudinot to Clifton, Hyde Parkto Fairfield; meeting withguests to hear about their fam-ilies and interests, their joysand successes, and their chal-lenges and hardships. We prideourselves on being a communi-

ty support system and do whatwe can to aid those that coulduse a helping hand. We arecalled to action to help those inneed.

This holiday season, LaRo-sa’s is proud to once againsupport the Freestore Food-bank of Cincinnati to fighthunger in our community.Beginning the day afterThanksgiving, each of ourpizzerias began selling BuddyCards (our 2 for 1 pizza dis-count card) for the benefit ofthe Freestore Foodbank.

The Freestore Foodbank isone of Ohio’s largest food-banks, distributing more than20 million meals annually in 20different counties throughoutOhio, Kentucky, and Indiana.We will donate $5 from the saleof every $10 Buddy Card di-rectly to the Freestore Food-bank. Our contribution willhelp support the FreestoreFoodbank efforts to providethe necessary resources to

meet our region’s growingneed. We hope you’ll join us inour efforts to surpass our 2013contribution of $36,000 to theFreestore Foodbank.

Here’s how you can help:» Purchase a LaRosa’s Bud-

dy Card at any LaRosa’s pizze-ria from Nov. 28 through Dec.31. For a full list of locations,visit www.larosas.com/find

Michael T.LaRosaCOMMUNITYRECORDER GUESTCOLUMNIST

Nov. 27 questionIf the Republican-controlled Senate

which takes office in January passes abill green-lightingtheKeystoneXLpipe-line, should thepresident sign thebill orveto it? Why?

“There are two or three issues be-ing overlooked in the discussion re-garding the Keystone Pipeline.

“1. Private Property Rights“2. The Keystone Pipeline benefits

Canadians and Canadian business in-terests and provides no additional oilsupplies for the US;

“3. After construction, it providesnot more than 35 new jobs for Amer-icans. In order to build this pipeline tocarry ‘tar sands’ oil through the Unit-ed States from theCanadian border toports in Texas to sell in other parts ofthe world; private property will needtobetakenfrommanyAmerican land-owners. This theory of taking wouldbe under eminent domain. Eminentdomain is supposed to be a ‘taking’ ofprivate property for a ‘public’ good.Taking American land for a projectwhichbenefitsCanadians andCanadi-anbusinessdoesnotbenefit theAmer-ican public. As there is no significantbenefit for Americans XL Pipelinelegislation should be vetoed by thepresident if the Senate approves it.”

Paul L. Whalen

“I believe he would veto it. Muchlike the immigration issue the presi-dent no longer has elections to re-strainhimandwill doashewants.Thepresident has often stated the onlyway to curve America’s use of oil is todrive the cost up so high that they areforced to.”

Terry Smith

“I think he’ll veto. I read that War-renBuffet is the chairman of the com-pany that owns the BSFN railroad,which owns all the tracks between theUS and Western Canada. They haulabout 80 percent of the oil to the USandmake about $2 billion a year doingso. The keystone could potentiallycost them that income (and thus thevery generous contributions andfundraisers for the Democratic Par-ty).This issuehas little todowithenvi-ronmental concerns. Like everythingin Washington, it’s all about the mon-ey.”

Bobbi Layne Kayser

“Yes! He should sign it!! The rea-sons are many ... jobs, oil independ-ence from the Middle East, moniescoming to our US economy from oilexporting ... to name a few!”

Linda Ann Salsbury

“No veto! Blocking the KeystoneXL Pipelinewill not keep the oil in theground, norwill it decreaseAmerica’sconsumption of fossil fuels. What itwill do is guarantee continuing unem-ployment for tens of thousands ofAmerican construction, manufactur-ing, transportationandrefinerywork-ers. It will also keep America vulner-able to oil supply interruption andhigh prices fromunstable, foreign oil-producing nations.”

Pamela Robinson Porter

“He needs to sign it ... that doesn’tmeanhewill.Weneedmore independ-ence from foreign oil and the extrajobs are also very much needed.”

Joy Kent Tarleton

“He should sign it... But hewon’t...”James Bartley

“The environmental concerns arephony anyway. They feign concernwhile using oil fromall over theworldand they care nothing about any en-dangered creatures or environmentalimpacts on those countries. I say useevery available energy source we canand lower the overall cost to consum-ersputtingmoremoneyinourpocketsto spend on a larger variety of prod-ucts thanoil andgas.Anaddedbenefitto those that hate on the rich is it putsless income in their pockets andmorein ours. Additionally, Obama will notOKtheKeystone,hisgoalaspresidentwas never to create jobs and improvethe economy, that is boring stuff to anactivist president.”

THIS WEEK’S QUESTIONSen. Chris McDaniel has pre-filed a billfor the upcoming Kentucky legislativesession to direct $13 million to countyjails and mental health agencies to dealwith the state's heroin problem. Itwould also increase penalties for heroindealers and require traffickers to serveat least 50 percent of their sentence. Isthis legislation the right direction forKentucky? Why or why not?

It’s hard to understandwhy people who (a) needskills to get a job or (b)think they can’t afford togo to college don’t enrollat Gateway Communityand Technical College. Ofcourse, many do.

But I’d bet there arequite a few people in theregion who fall into thosecategories who don’t havea clue about Gateway orhow a Gateway educationcan help them to a morefulfilling life. So let metake this opportunity todebunk some of the mythsabout community collegein general and Gateway inthe specific.

» I can’t afford to goto college. You may thinkyou can’t afford to go tocollege but chances areyou can. Gateway is veryaffordably priced. Tuitionis roughly half the cost ofany public university inKentucky. Plus, Gatewayoffers financial aid in theform of grants and schol-arships (which don’t haveto be paid back), as well asaccess to student loans.Loans do require repay-ment, but Gateway offersfinancial counseling thatcan help you keep borrow-ing to a minimum and planfor repayment from theget-go. And those schol-arships? You don’t have tobe an Einstein to qualify.Many are available forstudents with a C+ aver-age. Some federally fund-ed programs offer freetuition to low-incomestudents, depending onyour career interest.

» My life is too com-plicated for me to suc-ceed in college. Don’tjump to that conclusionwithout talking to us first.We have a wide variety ofsupport services to helpyou overcome those obsta-cles. We have programsthat can help with child-care and other life issuesthat get in the way ofsuccess. Also, our cam-puses are served byTANK, and you can rideTANK anywhere for freewith a valid Gateway IDcard.

» Gateway doesn’t

offer any-thing thatappeals tome. Per-haps youowe us asecond look.Gatewayoffers about150 differ-ent creden-tials inthree dozensubjectareas that

serve local business andindustries that are grow-ing and hiring. Accordingto local economic projec-tions, health care, educa-tion, business, finance,technology and produc-tion occupations are thosemost in demand in ourregion. Gateway offerstraining in all of thoseareas. Representatives oflocal businesses and in-dustries serve on ourprogram advisory com-mittees to help us keepour programs up to dateand relevant. We havecareer pathways custom-ized to industry job lad-ders and credentialsbased on industry certifi-cations that tie specifi-cally to job requirements.

» College isn’t worththe investment anyway.Really? Average earningsof a person with an asso-ciate degree is $37,604annually, according toU.S. Census data. Accord-ing to 2020 Jobs Outlookreport from Agenda 360and Vision 2015, 90 per-cent of jobs in the GreaterCincinnati/Northern Ken-tucky region paying above$33,130 a year requiresome combination of post-secondary education,on-the-job training, and/ormore than a year’s workexperience. Average an-nual earnings for thoseholding bachelor’s de-grees is $49,889. Gatewayoffers associate degreesand prepares graduatesfor transfer to bachelor’sdegree programs at four-year universities.

» Community col-leges don’t offer thesame quality as “real”colleges. Gateway is ac-

credited to award asso-ciate degrees by the Com-mission on Colleges of theSouthern Association ofColleges and Schools.SACS is recognized by theU.S. Department of Edu-cation and is a regionalaccreditation agency thatevaluates academic pro-grams at two- and four-year institutions, like theUniversity of Kentuckyand Northern KentuckyUniversity. That meanscommunity colleges, in-cluding Gateway, undergothe same rigorous reviewas their four-year univer-sity counterparts.

» My dream is to goto a four-year university.That’s a worthy goal; don’tgive up on it. Let us sug-gest that you start at Ga-teway and finish at a four-year school. Our creditstransfer, and you will saveas much as 40 percent onthe cost of a four-yeardegree by earning anassociate’s degree at Gate-way first. Look into ourGateway2NKU program,which guarantees admis-sion to NKU after com-pleting an associate inarts or science at Gate-way.

Explore the Four isMORE scholarship pro-gram that offers guaran-teed admission to ThomasMore College and a TMCscholarship of up to$14,000 a year upon yourGateway graduation.

We have transferagreements in place thatlead to more than 100different bachelor’s de-grees at over 20 U.S. col-leges and universities inthe region and around thecountry.

You see, there’s reallyno good reason for you notto at least explore enroll-ing at Gateway. Call ustoday at 859-441-4500. Orvisitwww.gateway.kctcs.edu.New classes start in Janu-ary.

Andre Washington is dean ofenrollment services at Gate-way Community and TechnicalCollege.

Why not go to college next year?

CAMPBELL COUNTY — TheCampbell County boys basket-ball team had unmatched suc-cess last year, winning the 10thRegion and advancing to theSweet 16 for the first time since2001.

TheCamels have a lot return-ingas theytry torepeatascham-pions, and they also face thepressure of being the proverbial“hunted.”

Head coach Aric Russellgraduated three key contrib-utors but has plenty of experi-ence coming back.

“We have to stay humblework harder than everybodyelse,” Russell said. “We havesomegreat teams in the10th andthey are all gunning for us. Wehave a target on our backs forsureandwewillhavetobereadyto play every night. I have tomake sure our kids realize thatthey have to compete every dayin practice and bring their Agameevery nightweplay. Itwillnot beeasy to repeatbutwereal-ly will give it our best shot.”

Making the task easier aretwoofNorthernKentucky’s bestplayers as well as the 10th Re-gion in Dre Jackson and MattWilson.Jackson,a6-foot-3seniorguard, averaged 18.6 points and2.3 assists per game. Matt Wil-son, a 6-8 junior center, posted adouble-doublewith12 points and10.3 rebounds agame.Hedrewalot of noticewith16 points and 21boards in Campbell’s Sweet 16loss to Johnson Central.

Russell said Jackson is play-ing really well in the preseason,and is a versatile offensive play-er who needs to be more consis-tentondefense.Wilson is strong-er and quicker this year and hasreally improved his game onboth ends of the floor.

Senior Blake Losey, theteam’s best defender last year,has vastly improved his offense.Junior Trent McGovney, thehardestworkeron the team,con-tributes inavarietyofwayswithhis hustle and tenacity.

Others to watch in the rota-tion are Jake Franzen, CraigNeltner, Jordan Day and ColeHegyi. Russell likes his team’sdepth. “We shoot and score andwehave the size to competewithanybody, we just need to getstronger on the defensive endand not just rely onWilson to getalloftherebounds,”Russellsaid.“We also need to not be satisfiedwith past accomplishments. Wehave to keep working hard andwork together as a team and notindividuals to be successful. Ifwe play selfish we will not havethe same success.”

CampbellhostsDixieHeightsDec. 5. Other early tests includea game at Covington CatholicDec. 17 and the Mason Countyholiday tourney Dec. 19-22.

Newport Central Catholic’sDrewMcDonald has aDivision Ischolarship ahead of him aftersigning to play basketball (andgolf) for Northern KentuckyUniversity.

He has his sights playing in aDivision I arena inMarch, RuppArena specifically, hoping theNewport Central Catholic Thor-oughbreds canwin theNinthRe-gionandadvancetotheSweet16.Last year’s journey endedwith a51-43 loss to eventual state titlistCovington Catholic in the NinthRegion semifinals, NCC endedwith a 29-4 record.

“We’vebeenworkinghardev-

ery day since really last (March)when we lost to Cov Cath,” Mc-Donald said. “We’ve all had onething on our minds, and that’sgetting back down to Rupp. Werealizewehavethetalentandthecoaching, ifwe just have thewilland desire we can compete for astate championship.”

NewCath is widely regardedas the preseason favorite in theNinthRegion, and is ranked sev-enth in the state coaches pollconductedby theLouisvilleCou-rier-Journal. Head coach RonDawn knows the regional is ascompetitive as ever.Holmes andCov Cath are also state top 25teams in the polls.

“It should be an excitingyear,” he said. “The Ninth Re-gion is going to be strong. I feellikewehaveagood team.Ourfo-cus is defense and conditioning.Youcanneverbe toogooddefen-sively and that is ourmain focusright now.”

McDonald, a 6-foot-7 seniorforward, averaged 13.1 pointsand7.5reboundsagamelastsea-son. He had an outstanding sum-mer in recruiting camps.

NCCreturnsfourof its topsixplayers overall from last season.Senior point guard Zach Pangal-lo, a three-year starter, averaged10.4 points and 3.7 assists per

game, and is also getting Divi-sion I college attention.

BenWeyer, a 6-6 junior, start-ed every game last year, averag-ing 7.8 points and 5.1 boards. HehadagreatsummeraccordingtoDawn. Grant Moeves, the sixthman last year, will start this sea-son and use his strong defenseand shooting ability.

Also looking to play key rolesareErikAnderson,BrianAnder-son, Seth Freppon, LukeMoevesand John Ludwig.

Newport was 15-11 last yearfor head coach Rod Snapp, whoreturnsforhisfifthseasonwitha62-54 record.

Junior guard Ethan Snapp re-turns after averaging 20 points agame last season. He has a col-lege offer from Division IICharleston (W.V.) and interestfromDivision I schoolsWofford,Lipscomb and Belmont.

Senior Paul Price returns af-ter averaging14.5 points a gamelast year.KameronCovington, 6-foot-3, averaged adouble-double(10ppg,10rebounds)andDomin-ick Joseph (6-0, 230) averagedsix points and four rebounds.

Others towatch start with 6-3junior Kedan Davis, 6-3 sopho-more Najee Williams and 6-2Breandon Johnson, who is 325pounds. Newport has a lot of

football players on its hoops ros-ter.

“We have lots of experienceback with a very challengingschedule this upcoming season,”Snappsaid. “Outlookwilldependonhowhardkidsworkandcometogether.”

Brossart returns head coachMike Code, who begins his 11thseason with a record of 203-83.He returns onevarsity starter insenior Spencer Hackworth, whoaveraged six points per gamelastyear.TheMustangsgraduat-ed six seniors from last year, fin-ishing23-5.TheMustangshaveastrong senior base to build on inguards Clay Kramer, BlakeSaunders andGabeRoberts; andforward Jon Zink. “We will bevery inexperienced butweworkvery hard,” Code said.

Bellevue returns three start-ers and the first two players offthe bench from last year’s 16-12.Head coach Jim Hicks returnsfor his fourth year, and hasscheduled a game against hisnamesake at Conner this year(Jan. 3).

Senior Austin Woodyardleads theway after averaging12points and 8.5 rebounds a game.Senior ZackBarrett averaged10points and six rebounds a con-test. Nate Arnzen and MatthewFryman each averaged eightpoints, and Arnzen dished outthree assists per contest.

Silver GrovewelcomesHow-ard Brownstein as head coach.He was at Cincinnati CountryDay the previous 29 years andhad several long playoff runsthere. He inherits a team that

was 17-13 last year and contend-ed for the NKAC Division III ti-tle up until the final week.

He returns four key players.SeniorforwardBillyMilleraver-aged eight points and seven re-bounds a game. Senior guardsAnthony Turcios and ChristianPollitt each averaged 10 points agame and junior point guardRandyKuntz posted 3.5 assists acontest.

“Much depends on whetherwe stay healthy, as we only havenine players,” Brownstein said.“It will also be very importantfour our four returning playersto stay out of foul trouble. If wecan accomplish both of thesegoals we should compete verywell in the NKAC small-schooldivision.”

Daytonwonsevengameslastyear forBillyRogg,who returnsfor his second as head coach andeighth overall with theGreende-vils. Top players are seniors De-rekLyons,MattGrimmeandLo-gan Brewer; juniors HarvestGifford and Phillip McDaniel;and sophomores Carl Matthewsand Sam Brewer.

Mat-thews was the team’s top fresh-man/JV player last season. TheGreendevils graduated 60 per-cent of their scoring fromayearago and will look to get into dou-ble digits in wins this season.

NEWPORT — Amongmany holiday blessings,Dan Wagner feels privi-leged to have a runningback with the skills of ju-nior Jacob Smith.

Smith’s athleticismand elusiveness, alongwith a key punt returnfrom another dangerousthreat in senior receiverNate Enslen, lifted Wag-ner’s Newport CentralCatholic football team toan easy 43-14 win overShelbyValleyNov. 28 in aClass 2A state semifinalin Pikeville.

NewCath scored all itspoints in the first half, ledby four total touchdownsfrom Smith. He had 226yards rushing in the halfand also found the end-zone on a 78-yardpunt re-turn thatamazedhisheadcoach. Smith has 1,485rushingyardsand29totalTDs this season.

“Sometimes he doessomething like that puntreturn and I just shakemy head,” Wagner said.“He’s awfully good in theopen field. Enslen is verygood, too. It’s nice to haveboth of themback there.”

NewCath (8-5), win-ners of eight of its lastnine games after an 0-4start, will play DeSales(13-1) in the state final3:30 p.m. EDT Friday,Dec. 5, at Western Ken-tuckyUniversity inBowl-ing Green.

The Thoroughbredsadvanced there after a

quick start against theWildcats. Wagner knewhis teamhadtobeaggres-sive after taking a 220-mile jaunt to the easternedge of the state.

After SV got the ballfirst,NewCath forced theWildcats into a three-and-out. Smith took the han-doff on NewCath’s firstplay from scrimmageand burst away for a 50-yard touchdown. SV’ssecond possession wasjust as short, and Enslenreturned the ensuingpunt all the way back fora 14-0 NCC lead.

“That was the biggestthing we wanted to do,was get started early,”Wagner said. “We cameout of the chute ready toplay and we got after

them very quickly. Weknew it was the first timethey had been there andthat theyweregoing tobevery excited and wewanted to take them outof that. Going up14-0waskey because they’re arunning football team.”

The road win earnedthe Thoroughbreds a re-match with the DeSalesColts from Louisville,who beat them 34-26 inlast year’s state final. TheColts have only allowed101 points in 14 games,seven per contest, andhave not allowed morethan 17 in any game. De-Sales lost17-0toChristianAcademy-Louisville inthe regular season for itsonly defeat, and avengedthat setback with a 7-6

win in the playoffs.Not counting the semi-

final win over Murray(14-7), the Colts haverushed formore than 230yards a contest andthrown for less than 90 agame.

Dylan Bird, who had137 rushing yards andtwo scores in last year’sstate final, is gone, andthis year’s rushing attackis spread out among sev-eral different ballcarri-ers. First-year quarter-back Austin Johnson at-tempts 10 passes a gameand has thrown for 1,130yardsand13TDs through13 games.

“They’re very well-coached. They’re verydisciplined,” Wagnersaid. “They run morethan throw. We knowwhat we’re getting into.They’re not 13-1 by acci-dent. They play in theLouisville area so they’reused to the best competi-tion.”

Wagner and the teamare looking forward to astrong week of practice.

“I’m impressed withthe way we’ve maturedthroughout theyearas in-dividuals,” Wagner said.“We just have to concen-trate and get better.We’ve gotten better ev-ery week and I feel ourbest football is ahead ofus.We’ll try toeliminateamistake here and thereand go down there andsee what happens.”

The forces of fate keeptrying to take the basket-ball away from NateMcGovney. But they areno match for ThomasMore College’s governorof gumption.

“Nothingwill keep thisguy down. He’s very de-termined,” said Aric Rus-sell, McGovney’s highschool coach at CampbellCounty. “When it comes toreally loving the game ofbasketball, he’s one ofthose guys.”

McGovney was a five-year player for the Cam-els. He was an all-districtand all-region standoutwho might have brokenthe school’s all-time scor-ing record of nearly 2,000points if not for two leg in-juries suffered sixmonths apart, an unfortu-nate double-whammythat wiped out nearly allof his senior season.

Two years later,McGovney is a first-yearstarting sophomoreguard for Thomas Morecoach Drew Cooper.

“He’s a marksman, al-ready a leader for us, andat the forefront of things.When Ihadmeetingswiththe freshmen, they allmentioned Nate,” Coopersaid. “He cares aboutwhat any coach wouldwant him to care about. Ifhedoesn’t play tohis levelof expectation, it bothershim, and he works at it.”

The Saints’ second-year coachbecameawareof his shooting guard’scourageous story atCampbell County as hegot to know the formerCamels great. Sitting on1,300 career points anddrawing interest fromNCAA Division I and IIcollege programs,

McGovney tore the ACLand meniscus in his leftknee during a scrimmageat a Northern KentuckyUniversity team campless than a month afterthe end of his junior year.

He came back to theCamels early in Decem-ber of his senior season,and suffered a tibia hair-line fracture in the sameleg two games into his re-turn, shelving him anoth-er month. Undaunted, hereturnedasecond time, inJanuary, and helped putthe Camels on a six-gamewinning streak beforethey succumbed in thedistrict tournament. De-spite missing more thanhalf the season, he pickedup all-district votes.

“You’d never know hewent through all that,”coach Cooper said. “He’smadeamaturedecision toput those injuries behindhim.Butwhathe’sgot asaresult is a real passion forbasketball.”

Entering the Saints’sixth game of the season,Saturday’s home contestagainst instate rival Cen-tre College, the 6-foot-2shooting guard rankedthird on the team in scor-ing with 11.2 points pergame. He was third with2.0 assists, second with4.2 rebounds, and firstwith 2.0 steals. ThomasMore came into theweek-end with a record of 2-3after beating visitingWil-mington, 79-76 on Tues-day.

“I’m having a blast,”said McGovney, who hadnine points, four re-bounds, two assists andtwo steals against Wil-mington.Hehadaseason-high18 points andnine re-bounds against Hanover.“I thinkoneof the reasonswhy I’m having so muchfun is I know it could havebeen a lot different.”

But McGovney’s am-plewillpower intervened.

“I found out howmuch

I loved the game. Thatstep back was what Ineeded, and I wanted tokeep playing, as hard as Ican,” said the accountingand finance major. “Mydream was to play in col-lege, so it’s a dream cometrue to be here with guysin that locker room whoare my best fiends, guysfromNorthernKentucky.Now that I’ve realizedmy

dream, I want a champi-onship.”

Featuring former areastandouts includingDrewMays (Ryle), Louis Mani-acci (Cooper) and SawyerPauly (Covington Catho-lic), plus all-PresidentsAthletic Conference sec-ond-team pick DrewMumford, averaging 16points per game, theSaints are seeking theirfirst Division III nationaltournament berth since2009.

They came close lastseason, finishing PACregular season and tour-

nament runner-up.McGovney played in ev-ery game, averaging 10.1points and 3.6 rebounds.He shot 51.7 percent fromthe field, 47.1 percent on3-point attempts and 90.6percent from the freethrow line.

“If Ihadn’tgotall thoseinjuries, I might havewound up far away atsome bigger school. Butthey all backed offwhen Igot hurt,” McGovneysaid. “I’m a family guy. Ilike being close to home. Iwound up where I neededto be.”

NKU Notes» The Northern Ken-

tucky University men’ssoccer team’s seasoncame to an end in Nash-ville when the Norse fellto Florida Gulf Coast, 2-0,

in the Atlantic Sun Cham-pionships semifinals but alook back on the seasonshowed a tale of progressthrough a 22-game year.

The 2014 seasonkickedoff in Highland HeightsonAug.17when theNorsehosted Kentucky in theirpreseason exhibition. Ex-tra seating had to bebrought into theNKUSoc-cer Stadium to accommo-date the record-settingcrowd of 1,934 fans whocame to watch the Norseand Wildcats battle to ascoreless draw. It was thelargest crowd for anyNKUhomesportingeventoutside of men’s basket-ball.

Themost dramaticwincameonSept. 23when theNorse hosted WrightState. The Raiders led theNorse, 2-0, at halftime asthe match appeared to beall but lost. Kobie Qualahled the charge for theNorse in the second halfwith a goal in the 70thminute. The celebrationwas short lived as WrightState netted another goalin the 74th minute, ex-tending the lead to 3-1.Twominutes later, Qualahscored his second goal ofthe match. In the 80thminute, the Norse wereawarded a penalty after aWright State defendercommitted a handball andCian McDonald convert-ed the spot kick, tying thematch. The game wentintoovertimeandMcDon-ald sealed the NKU winless than twominutes intoextra time with a 30-yardstrike. NKU won, 4-3, inwhat would be their mostimpressive offensive dis-play of the season.

The Norse were on theoutside looking in at the

postseason picture butone win can change a sea-son. The win would comeon Senior Night when theNorse hosted Stetson,who were the sitting atopthe A-Sun standings witha 4-1 conference record.The game would end upseeing the Norse qualifyfor the A-Sun Champion-ships as the No. 6 seed.

It is the season wherefoodmay be plentiful andleftovers seem to takeover the refrigerator.

It is a great idea to useyour left-overs tostretch thebudget andprovidequickmeals forthe family.Sometimesit is even agood ideato plan tomake extrafood tosave for

later. It reduces yourwork load and can savetime and energy, too.

Leftovers must bestored and reheated safe-ly to prevent foodborneillnesses. Follow thesetips to ensure your left-overs are safe to eat:

Take some time tomake room in the refrig-erator and freezer forfoods and leftovers.

Refrigerate leftoverswithin two hours of thefood sitting at room tem-perature. Bacteria growbest at temperaturesbetween 40 and140 de-grees F. Use an appliancethermometer to makesure your refrigerator isset between 35 and 40degrees F.

For quicker cooling,

divide leftovers intosmaller portions in shal-low containers. Stir foodsto help them cool fasterand do not overpack thestorage containers. Placethe hot food directly intothe refrigerator.

Label and date all left-overs. Eat or freeze anyleftovers within three tofour days. Consume orfreeze gravy within twodays.

Most frozen leftoversshould be used within acouple of months for thebest quality.

Once you are ready toeat your leftovers, reheatthem so the internal tem-perature of the foodreaches 165 degrees F.Check the temperaturewith a food thermometer.Safely reheat soups,sauces and gravies bybringing them to a boil.

When reheating in amicrowave, make surethere are no cold spots inthe food where bacteriacould survive. Stir androtate food for even heat-ing.

Enjoy the foods of theseason but make a plan soyou are not overwhelmedby the leftovers.

BURLINGTON — Fam-ilies are invited to createhandmade treats andmemories inside An OldKentucky Christmas atFirst Church of ChristDec. 11-14.

A pioneer village,choir concerts and can-dlelight services featur-ing a “Silent Night” sing-along are part of a freecelebration of Christmasat the church’s campus at6080 Camp Ernst Road,Burlington.

Ways to wax nostalgicabout the 19th century in-clude making candles byhandand takingaride inahorse-drawn carriageseating up to 16 peopleper trip.

More than 1,000 volun-teers have worked sinceMarch to create the pio-neer village, said volun-teer director Alissa Lan-caster of Hebron.

“We dress in period at-tire, which adds a neat ef-fect to that old pioneersetting,” she said.

Lancaster said shewillwear a pioneer-style skirtand button-down blousewith an apron. She’s hop-

ing to add a bonnet.Inside the village

shops are activities in-cluding a chance for chil-dren to decorate and eattheir own chocolate-cov-ered pretzels, said BrianHeckber, of Hebron,church outreach pastor.

There is no cost to attendor participate in any ac-tivities, Heckber said.

“Our goal is each shopthe kids can come in andexperience doing some-thing themselves andwalk away with some-thing,” he said.

Families receive a 5x7print and photo emailedto them from the freephoto booth inside thechurch, he said.

There is a petting zoo,hot chocolate station andquilting demonstrations,Heckber said.

Inside the woodwork-er’s shop, Erlanger resi-dent Gary Webster willuse a foot-powered latheto demonstrate carvingtechniques.

“He invites the kids tocomeback andwatchhimand they get little woodornaments – wood cut-outs of a Christmas tree,”Heckber said.

A Pioneer Games stopwill allowchildren toplaywith tops, checkers and aJacob’s Ladder gamemade of string and wood,he said.

A pen and quill stopwill be decorated as anone-room schoolhouse.Children will try to writeonapieceofpaperbydip-

ping a quill into ink,Heckber said.

An Old KentuckyChristmas, in its thirdyear, grew out of thechurch’s song-filled can-dlelight service, he said.

“Everybody gets acandlewhen they come inand we’ll sing ‘SilentNight’ together,” Heckb-er said.

Senior Pastor GregMarksberry will give ashort speech at each ser-vice, and the church’schoir performs, he said.

“We kind of see this asa gift our church gives tothe community to allowpeople to make somememories,” Heckbersaid.

FORT WRIGHT — Amonument honoringfamily members of fall-en soldiers will soon beplaced in the garden ofthe city building, follow-ing the death of FortWright native and GreenBeret, Sgt. Daniel TylerLee.

Daniel’s parents, Danand Fran Lee, visited thecity building to thankDaniel Kreinest, thechief of police, for coor-dinating all the effortsfor the funeral, includingworking with the air-ports.

Dan Lee said his fam-ily was truly apprecia-tive for the help it re-ceived regarding his son,who died on Jan. 15 in Af-ghanistan from gunshotwounds.

“We went there tothank him for all his ef-forts because it went sosmoothly,” Lee said.“When we were ap-proaching the city build-ing, we happened to see amonument. We thoughtabout what a nice idea itwould be if they couldhave something for thefallen soldiers.”

Lee’s employer, Ax-cess Financial, offered todonate money in Daniel’sname for his parents tospend however theywanted.

Lee told council mem-bers about a sculpture heandhiswife sawatDoverAir Force Base in Dela-ware when they flewthere to receive theirson’s body.

He said it took them alittle while to understandthemeaning of the sculp-ture,which is titled, “TheAngel and the Dying Un-known,” by sculptorGreg Wyatt.

“His sculpture justtouched us somuchwhenwe were at Dover,” hesaid. “It was probablyone of the only pleasantmemories we broughtback from Dover AirForce Base.”

City CouncilmembersScott Wall and Adam Fei-nauer contactedWyatt tosee if he was interestedin creating the sculpture.

“We felt like this hasbeen a sign from God,”Wall said. “We Googledhim right away and Mr.Wyatt responded.”

The impactWall said the city has a

monument for all ofthose who serve, but itdoesn’t have anythingfor those who are killedin action.

Lee said the impact ofthe sculpture may affectpeople differently, de-pending on the meaningthey find.

“It’s an opportunityforpeople to see the actu-al artwork in the sculp-ture, and what it standsfor,”he said. “It’s basical-ly an angel that’s pickingup a fallen soldier. It re-minds you that when youpass from this world,you’re not alone. It’s oneof those sculptures thattakes a little bit for you toabsolutely absorb it.”

According to Lee,there is a similar sculp-ture in Arlington Nation-

al Cemetery that Wyattcreated as well, but hehopes families are fortu-nate enough to not havetomake a personal trip tosee the monuments.

“Hopefully peoplenever have the opportu-nity to go to Dover,” Leesaid. “I hope no one everhas to go through that.But at least they wouldget to see and appreciatethe artwork.”

ThemessageLee gave a few words

of guidance to familieswho are currently goingthrough a similar situa-tion.

“It’s going to test yourfaith in God, but you justhave to be strong,” hesaid.

According to Lee,there was a young GreenBeret who was one of thepallbearers at Daniel’sfuneral.

He and his wife askedthe soldier if this hap-pened to him, how wouldhe want his parents toact.

The soldier respondedsaying, “This was his lifechoice. It’s what hewant-ed to do and he under-stood the risks. Hewouldwant his parents to behappy that he went outserving his country.”

Wall said he is going tospeak for the rest of thecouncil members, andhopefully the citizens aswell, to say that layingdown one’s life for theircountry is as noble athing as there is in life.

“We get to live freelyand peacefully,” Wallsaid. “Theonly reasonweget to do that is becausethese guys have giventheir lives. We are veryhonored that we willhave a spot where peoplecan come and reflectupon that.”

According to Wall, the

target time for the pro-ject to be finished is late-March 2015.

There will be a cere-mony with many digni-taries invited, and Wyattis planning on beingthere.

Do you know any soldiers fromthe city of Fort Wright whohave died in battle? Pleasehelp identify them so they canbe recognized on the monu-ment by contacting city ad-ministrator Gary Huff at 859-331-1700.

THANKS TO SCOTT WALL

According to the sculptor Greg Wyatt, the sculpture "GuardianAngel" features a much more developed red beeswax model,which when finished, will be transported to the Modern ArtFoundry in New York City for lost wax bronze casting. At theend of the process, an eight-sided bronze pedestal will bearc-welded permanently to the bottom of the sculpturememorial.

The Shop with a Copprogram is changing thelives ofyoungpeople andvolunteers involved inseveral local communi-ties.

The Erlanger andElsmere police depart-ments have teamed up tooffer Shopwith a Cop, anall-day event, for morethan 20 years, accordingto Erlanger Sgt. ToddBrendel.

Thekidsarepickedupfor shopping, come to thestation for food donatedby local businesses, andthen visit Danbarry Cin-emas in Florence for amovie. In addition, theygive eachchild’s family aKroger gift card forChristmas dinner.

“It’s aprettyawesomeday,” Brendel said. “It’sgreat to see their faceslightup.It’sagoodoppor-tunity for them to see adifferentsideofofficers.Here we are in a positivesituation providingsomething special forthem.”

Money is raisedthroughout the year,Brendel said, by simplysending out letters to lo-cal businesses and resi-dents.Eachyearabout25children are selectedfrom local schools to par-ticipate in the program.

Howell ElementarySchool counselor PamBoyle said the programmakes a real differencein the kids’ lives.

“We pick kids whoneed financial help, but

also thosewho need goodrole models,” she said.“Students really benefitwith spending time withthe officers. They’reworkingwith someone inauthority who is friendlyand helping them maketheir family’s Christmasbetter. It really givesthemabetteroutlookandattitude.”

Erlanger Police De-partment also partnerswith theVillaHillsPoliceDepartment and theCrescent Springs andVilla Hills Fire Depart-ment for the program.

This programhas alsobeen going on for about20 years. Erlanger be-came involved after itsmerger with the Cres-cent Springs Police De-partment.

They too take the kidsout shopping, and theninvite them back to thefirehouse for awrappingparty.

“We all have a goodtime,” said VillaHills Po-lice Chief Brian Allen.

“And the kids get to havea little bit of a betterChristmas they wouldn’totherwise have.”

River Ridge PrincipalShawna Harney said it’sa great time for the kids.

“This is a time of yearwherewecanbringsomejoy to those in need,” shesaid. “This program isanother great way toreach students and fam-ilies who need that extraboost.”
