Clermont County cyclistscan now enjoy an even longerride.

The third segment of theClermont County bike trail hasbeen completed. With the com-pletion of this segment, the trailextends six miles from Wil-liamsburg to Zagar Road in Ba-tavia Township.

The trail will eventually ex-tend 15 miles to the William H.Harsha Lake Dam and the vil-lage of Batavia.

“This project is a good exam-ple of federal, state and localgovernments working togetherto get something done,” saidChris Clingman, director of theClermont County Park District.

The most recent segment ofthe trail was funded by a$50,000 grant from Interact forHealth. The purpose of thegrant is to provide opportuni-ties for physical activity andtrail links in various parts of theTristate that may not have hadthese opportunities in the past.

Work on the bike trail beganin Williamsburg in 2008.

“I get more exited with eachphase that gets done,” said Ma-ry Ann Lefker, mayor of Wil-liamsburg. “We have alreadyseen a huge benefit in Williams-burg. It opened up an area thathadn’t been easily accessed be-fore.”

Clingman said the economicbenefits of the trail were a sig-nificant consideration when theproject was proposed as part ofthe Vision 32 Corridor Plan in2000.

The trail creates connectiv-ity, he said.

At this point, more than $1million has been raised for thetrail through grants and fund-raising.

Clingman estimates comple-tion of the entire trail will cost atleast $3.5 million.

Clingman said that whatmakes this trail unique is that itutilizes abandoned roads andshared roadways.

For example, Old ZagarRoad, which is part of the biketrail, was recently repaved aspart of the project.

“It’s like taking a ride down

An unprecedented numberof families this year are partthe Inter Parish Ministry’s an-nual Adopt-a-Family forChristmas program.

All 375 families from east-ern Hamilton County and Cler-mont County have been adopt-ed, representing more than1,500 individuals, IPM servicecoordinator Sarah Cadle said.The families are adopted bymembers of the communityand organizations who anony-mously provide Christmas forthem, development directorGail Koford said.

Our Lord Christ the KingCatholic Church in MountLookout adopted 300 individ-uals, Cadle said. They are thebiggest donor. The familyadoption process starts in Oc-tober with groups/organiza-tions and residents adoptingone or more families.

The IPM adopt-a-familyprogram is just a small part ofwhat Christ the King Churchdoes over the holiday season.There are two aspects, parish-ioner Dennie Patton, MountLookout, said. There is the giv-ing tree where the ornamentsfor the IPM adopt-a-familygift requests are placed alongwith gift requests for childrenat Children’s Hospital. Theother aspect is the church’s

own adopt-a-family programwhich serves about 50 fam-ilies from the east end, shesaid.

The parishioners at Christ

the King, as a general rule, arevery blessed, Patton said. Thecongregation is small to medi-um in size. About 500 peopletake ornaments off of the tree

and/or adopt families or do-nate money.

“We’ve been given a lot andour parishioners know thatand the holiday, it’s such a

wonderful time to help othersand give back,” she said. “Andthere are a lot of people in ourarea who are in need.”

Because IPM serves fam-ilies on this side of Cincinnati,it’s a good match for thechurch, Patton said. And thereis a lot of need in the communi-ty around the church found es-pecially in the east end.

“They are our neighbors,”Patton said.

Last year, Cadle said 340families were adopted forChristmas through the IPMprogram. The increase innumbers isn’t a surprise toher.

“I’ve been doing this for 15years and the program was go-ing on when I started,” Cadlesaid. “Obviously it’s grown byleaps and bounds, especiallywhen the economy tanked.The numbers then doubledand never really went down.”

Some of those being servedmight now have jobs but areno longer making a livingwage, she said.

“We see a lot of people whothis is the only service theyuse that we offer,” Cadle said.“They come in because theyknow it’s going to be tight andthis is that little bit extra thathelps.”

Pierce Township resi-dent Steve Taylor (NewRichmond High SchoolClass of 1980) knows bet-ter than to mess withthose precious memoriesof the past. He’s been castas George Bailey in Ri-verstage CommunityTheatre’s production of“It’s a Wonderful Life,” aman who learns his lessonabout accepting (and em-bracing) where you’vefound yourself in life.

Taylor has taken histime to find his way backto the stage. The last pro-duction in which he actedwas New Richmond HighSchool’s “South Pacific”under director John Mar-

shall. That was in 1980, hissenior year.

Married, and fiveyears past celebrating his30th high school reunion,he now works on the WestSide in customer service/sales.

His wife and daugh-ters had performed withRiverstage before andhad had great experienc-es. Yet Taylor’s time awayfrom the stage led him tobeing “scared to death”when he was offered not abit part, but the iconiclead role.

Robert Wildey (NewRichmond ‘82) of MonroeTownship’s resume con-sisted of two New Rich-

mond Middle Schoolplays, and a part at Wil-mington College.

“I had to carry a drun-ken young girl down somestairs,” he recalls. “May-be one line.” Now he’s act-ing the role of both Bertthe cop and Ernie the cabdriver (sunk into a singlerole for the stage, “Ber-nie”), as well as SamWainwright in eveningpractices, and workinghis job at Clermont Coun-ty Public Health duringthe day.

Greg Hall, a classmateof Wildey, had passedover 30 years since he lastperformed publicly be-fore he joined with River-stage for their “Rapunzeland the Prince” in the fallof 2014.

The Clermont Countyresident had so much fun

he went out for the nextproduction (”Rip VanWinkle”) as well, and isreaching for the trifectawith “It’s a WonderfulLife,” where he was dual-ly cast as Harry Baileyand bar owner Martini.

“I like the challengeeach new...character pre-sents,” he said, though heknows, “it’s a lot of hardwork preparing for arole.”

Monroe Township resi-dent Chad Gibson (NewRichmond ‘86), spentnearly a decade awayfrom New Richmond – hemoved to Kentucky in1994, graduated with a de-gree in Theatre Arts fromMorehead State Univer-sity, and performed in for-pay community theaterthere, his last role beingthat of Romeo’s father,

Montague, in LexingtonShakespeare Company’s“Romeo and Juliet.”

Cast as George’s hap-less Uncle Billy (thoughTaylor is six years his sen-ior), Gibson says of com-ing back into the spot-light, “the worst thingthat could happen is Iscrew up and people willlaugh at me. People havelaughed at me my wholelife, so I’m used to it.”

Despite his lack of re-cent experience learninglines, finding the heart-beat of George Bailey, acharacter whose emo-tional journey comprisesthe core of the play, Tay-lor didn’t stay scared todeath for long.

“The experience hasbeen better than I evercould have dreamed,” hesaid.

Hall notes the workthat goes behind prepar-ing for a role (the cast hasbeen in rehearsals sinceSeptember), and gives ashout-out to the people be-hind the scenes at River-stage as well; “they do notget the recognition theydeserve. (Through theprocess) you get close tothe other actors and allthe production people. Itbecomes like extendedfamily.”

Hall has a more lastingconnection on a day-to-day basis to some of thecast of this particular pro-duction: Taylor is hisbrother-in-law, and Wil-dey was already a friend.In fact, Hall had a hand inrecruiting both for audi-tions.

meager Christmas forsome families, it repre-sents the only source ofChristmas gifts for oth-ers, she said.

Each family lists itemsthey need or want for

Christmas for their chil-dren and themselves, Ko-ford said. Many times thegifts that they ask for areeveryday items most peo-ple take for granted liketowels, laundry soap, alaundry basket or a warmblanket, she said.

IPM is seeing an in-crease in the number ofsenior citizens in theadopt-a-family program,Cadle said. Many nowfind themselves havingcustody of their grand-children and are strug-gling to provide food andclothes for them. The giftlists for senior citizenstend to be for items suchas toaster ovens, sheets,blankets, warm socks,warm boots and warmsweaters, she said.

The wish lists of singlemoms are very similar,Cadle said. They tend toask for practical thingsand items for their chil-dren. IPM staffers en-courage them to also in-clude on their lists at leastone item they would like

for Christmas that theywould not buy for them-selves.

“Everyone wants a lit-tle magic for the holi-days,” she said.

In addition to the bagof Christmas gifts, eachfamily also receives a fro-zen turkey and grocerygift cards.

While all the familieshave been adopted, Cadlesaid IPM is still in need ofgift cards. Each familyreceives at least one giftcard to help buy a Christ-mas meal. If a gift listitem for an adopted fam-ily is forgotten or mis-placed, gift cards areused to fill that need, shesaid.

Donations of giftcards, preferably inamounts of $25, can bedropped off at IPM’sheadquarters in New-town, 3509 Debolt Road,between the hours of 9a.m. and 4 p.m. Mondaythrough Friday, and be-tween 5 to 8 p.m. Mondayevenings.

“It’s been a longjourney, but (through)a collaborative (effort)we have been able toaccomplish a lot,” saidBatavia Township Ad-ministrator Rex Par-sons.

“There are manyareas of the park thatare now accessible,” hesaid referring to thesection of the trail thatruns through East ForkState Park.

Signage for the biketrail in the BataviaTownship portion willbe discussed at upcom-ing Batavia TownshipTrustees meetings.

Members of the General Assem-

bly clearly voiced their support for

a smoke-free Kentucky bill for the

2015 session last week that mirrors

previously failed legislation in 2014.

Denouncing the argument that a

smoke-free bill prohibiting smoking

in public places would kill business,

Brent Cooper, a business owner

from northern Kentucky, said not

only are businesses prospering

across the Ohio River in Cincinnati

with a smoke-free law, but that the

pubs in Ireland haven’t shut down

since the country put a ban on

smoking in the workplace 10 years

ago.Many legislators conferred that

public smoking was indefensible in

Kentucky given the state’s bad

health ratings compared to other

states throughout the U.S.

According to testimony from

Wayne Meriwether, CEO of Twin

Lakes Regional Medical Center,

second-hand smoke is just as dan-

gerous for those that don’t smoke.

memorial bricks – many ofwhich have not been pur-chased.

Bricks may be dedicated toa veteran, but also to any fam-ily member – even a pet. “Our

goal is to have names in-scribed on all of the remainingbricks at the memorial,” KenWilliamson, president ofChapter 649, said.Bricks cost$30 each.

Order forms are availableon Chapter 649’s website atvva649.org.

Some Clermont Countybusinesses have agreed tokeep brick order forms on

I should practice what I preach. Youknow how I’m always telling you at thebeginning of the holiday season to stock upon staples, like sugar, butter, flour, etc.Well, guess what I ran out of today? Allthree!

I had barely enough brown sugar andbutter to make yet another test recipe ofthe Williams Sonoma hot fudge chocolatesauce that I’ve been asked to clone.

In my defense, though, I started theseason out with what I thought was plenty,but with all the classes, presentations and plainold fun cooking for family and friends, I did runout.

But that’s OK. A trip to the grocery was amuch needed break from the kitchen.

Crunchy white peppermint barkSee the bark in the photo? I have that

recipe, along with more good bark recipeson my Abouteating.com site.

Tip from Rita’s kitchen: Sticky,stuck lids

To avoid this on jars of honey, corn syr-up, etc., spray the inside of the lid and alsothe outside rim of the jar.

Rita’s clone of Williams Sonoma’s hot fudgesauce

Oh my gosh, I think I nailed it! Talk about a nice gift fromthe kitchen, not to mention easy and a lot less expensive thanstore bought. Plus the love you put into this is priceless.

For Marcia in Deer Park and Natalie in Indian Hill. This is asclose as I can get to their hot fudge sauce. Wms Sonoma’s doesn’thave corn syrup in theirs, but in order to get the consistency andshine I wanted, I added some. Using a high quality chocolate baris important. Don’t use chocolate chips. This doubles easily andlooks as good as it tastes.

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, good quality1/3 cup whipping cream5 tablespoons light corn syrup8 oz bittersweet chocolate bar, chopped2-1/2 tablespoons salted butter (if using unsalted, add a

pinch of salt)3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar

In a heavy saucepan, stir the cocoa powder and whippingcream until smooth. Then turn heat to medium and add rest ofingredients. As it cooks, stir constantly with a whisk. When it startto hit a gentle bubbling boil all over, let it alone and continue tocook like that for 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to marry andproduces a depth of flavor found in hot fudge. Let it cool, andstore, covered in frig. It will get too firm to pour, so warm it gent-ly before using.

Rita’s clone of Williams Sonoma’s peppermintfudge sauce

OK so they don’t carry this anymore but when they did, Icouldn’t get enough of it. So what I did was made another batchof fudge sauce and added a teaspoon of pure peppermint extractafter I pulled it from the stove. All I’ll say is I ate way too muchstraight from the pan.

Crockpot bourbon glazed salami

From Kim, a member of my recipe group. She’s a down-towner, and said, “This was another Thanksgiving recipe that wasgone in minutes.” So, you can’t get a better recommendationthan that. Kim usually buys whole kosher salami for this, since shefinds that works best. What an unusual appetizer for a holidaygathering!

Large whole salami 1 cup apricot preserves1/2 cup maple syrup2 tablespoons bourbon

Slice the salami – about one inch. Then cut each slice intoquarters. (You want bite size piece to fit on a toothpick) Put intocrock-pot. Combine the other three ingredients together. Poorover salami and mix together so every piece is covered. Cover andcook on low for 6 hours. Put on a plate with toothpicks.

Tip: Substitute kielbasa for the salami if you prefer.

Letters, columns and articles submitted to The Milford-MiamiAdvertiser may be published or distributed in print, electronic orother forms.

If it is true that peopleoften only read the first fewlines of an article, then let mesay it right up front. There isno manna from heaven. Thereare no sweepstakes that youwin over the phone and haveto send your life savings toget, ever. And, that kind,sweet convincing voice on theother end of the phone line is,no doubt, sitting in a huge callcenter in another country,meeting quotas and cele-brating the victory when youare Scammed out of everycent you worked hard to savefor so many years.

You may think this couldnever happen to someone youknow, even a parent, but itoften does and goes unreport-ed to authorities and, espe-cially, to adult children. Iftold, adult children respondwith disbelief, anger and dis-may toward the parent whenthey cannot believe that asmart parent could have fall-en for such a thing. Frankly,there is no degree of intellec-tual or socio-economic bound-aries that differentiate those

who arescammed byrelentless conthieves. Fall-ing prey iseasy.

In manycases, hard-working re-tired Amer-icans have lostupwards ofmore than

$100,000 before realizingthere is no gold at the end ofthe rainbow; that everythingthey have worked for is gone.I am aware of situationswhere an older adult has notonly lost his/her life savings,but ended up in foreclosureon a home that had been paid-off years before.

A common scam is the“You won the lottery” scam,wherein the person answeringthe phone is told that he justwon $1.3 million (or anotherrandom amount) and aftermuch hoopdilah of congrat-ulations and celebration, thecaller indicates that you are,however, responsible for the

taxes; but, they will even sendyou a check to cover the tax-es. You get the check, cash itat your bank and by the timeit gets to the other countryand it returns to your banknoting “no such account,”you’ve already sent a boatloadof cash to them.

One call that recently cameto my home was from some-one purporting to be from theU.S. Treasury; not unlike theIRS call, insisting that I re-turn the call and that it was ofdire importance. I did not. Ifyou return the call, they getyour personal information -like birth date and SocialSecurity number - and, threat-en that you owe the govern-ment money, and if you don’tsend it immediately, you willbe arrested.

I am always amazed thatthe “grandson/daughter” call-ing from another country isused so often. The caller in-dicates that he/she is yourgrandson/daughter, startingwith “Grandma?” and theresponse is “Trevor, Trevor, isthat you?” Of course, this

person is now “Trevor” andbefore you know it, you’vewired $20,000 into anothercountry to get him out of pris-on, and he has begged you notto call his parents.

It is the holidays. Let’s bethankful for all we have, butdiligent in protecting it. So,hang up the phone. Generally,the caller moves on to thenext potential victim andwon’t waste time with you.Occasionally, they can bethreatening and persistent.Do not let them hang up thephone on the other end of theline and laugh to their friendsin the call center that theyscammed another trustingAmerican. Please share thismessage with every personyou know and care about inhelping them to protect theirhard-earned savings.

It says in 2 Thessalonians.2:13-14, “But we are bound togive thanks always to God foryou, brethren beloved of theLord, because God hath fromthe beginning chosen you tosalvation through sanctificationof the Spirit and belief of thetruth: Whereunto He called youby our gospel, to the obtainingof the glory of our Lord Jesus

Christ.”Apostle Paul

spells out sev-eral things thatshould compelus to givethanks. First ofall Paul isthankful forGod’s plan ofsalvation. Nowthis thankful-ness is not justfor the Thessa-

lonians, but for all those whocome to a saving knowledge ofJesus Christ. Notice also thatPaul called the Thessaloniansbrothers beloved of the Lord.We too, are brothers and sistersin Christ. We too, are loved byGod. The Bible says He lovedus first. He sought us out evenbefore we existed.

We need to be thankful forGod’s love. Again, from thebeginning God chose us to besaved. Our salvation arisesfrom God’s marvelous grace.He chose us not because wewere worthy, or somehow mer-ited His favor, but He chose usin order that we could spendeternity with Him, because Heloves us. However, all of theFather’s love is channeledthrough and by his Son JesusChrist.

Again, God does not acthaphazardly. God has a plan. Asbelievers our sins have beenpaid for and purchased by theblood of Christ. Understand Iam not preaching the predes-tination of the saved here. Thepredestination Almighty God isreferring to is that he prede-termined to send His Son intothe world to save all who wouldbelieve; those who believe arethe chosen ones. We are boundto give thanks for being chosen.We are bound to give thanks forbeing forgiven. We are bound togive thanks for being maderight with a Holy God.

He called us. We heard hiscall. Now very simply, “thewhosoever wills may come. Thewhosoever wills are the chosenones. The whosoever won’ts arethe non-elect, the ones who donot accept Christ as their Sav-ior” (borrowed this phrase).

Jesus said, “…if any manthirst, let him come unto me,and drink” (John 7:37). That is alegitimate offer of salvation.And if people don’t come, thereason is not because they werenot elected or loved of God.Quite the contrary. The reasonthey do not come is that theyare not thirsty. They don’t thinkthey need a Savior.

If you are thirsty, you cometo Christ. For our Lord God hada purpose in mind when hebegan his saving work in thePhilippians. He had a purposewhen He began His savingwork in us. And that purposewill not be abandoned. We arebound to give thanks…How canwe not?

Dec. 2 questionWhat is your favorite Christ-

mas song? Which artist’s versiondo you prefer?

"’Oh Holy Night’ capturesthe essence of Christmas.Since I saw Sarah Brightman ina live performance here in Cin-cinnati, no other woman's voicecarries anything like the powerand range she does. This songrequires both power and emo-tion. We lost the last incredibletenor with the death of MarioLanza, who did the best maleversion of the song. CharlotteChurch also has enough powerfor the song and, for those whodon't care for the ‘operatic’quality of the other two, shecan make you weep.”

D.B.

“The seasonal, holiday songI love is ‘Fairytale of New York’by the Pogues, with Shane Mac-Gowan and Kristy MacColl onvocals. The tune is cinematic inscope with a humorous poi-gnancy, keeping it fresh for meyear to year.”

C.S.

“Frankly, none of them. If itexisted, I suppose I would real-ly enjoy ‘Christmas is Over’ by

the group Finally. I love the re-ligious meanings behindChristmas and the fact that it isa great excuse for families toreconnect, but the commercialside of Christmas has so over-whelmed everything about theseason and the non-stop com-mercials on TV, radio and theInternet make me want to vom-it. I know I am in a very smallminority, but the Christmas wecelebrate today is a far cry

from the one 2015 years ago. Iam, however, a staunch believ-er that this time of the yearmust be called Christmas andnot the Holiday Season.”

M.J.F.

“My favorite Christmassong is a duet by Bing Crosby &David Bowie – “Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy” fromBing’s 1977 Christmas TVshow. Crosby and Bowie weretwo total opposite singing tal-ents harmonizing two greatclassic holiday songs. This duetcan be seen and heard on You-Tube. Now if only the rest of theworld could harmonize for theholidays then there might besome real peace on earth. GoFigure!”

THIS WEEK’S QUESTIONDo you agree with the decision not to prosecute the officer who shotTrepierre Hummons, after he shot Cincinnati Officer Sonny Kim? Whyor why not?

Every week we ask readers a question they can reply to via email. Send your answersto [email protected] with Ch@troom in the subject line.

The continued theft ofpersonal information by iden-tity thieves has led the In-ternal Revenue Service to putin place tougher safeguardsfor the 2016 tax filing season.

IRS Commissioner JohnKoskinen says, “We need thepublic’s help. We need peopleto join with us and take anactive role in protecting theirpersonal and financial datafrom thieves.”

The IRS says its clear in-creasingly sophisticated iden-tity thieves are buying andselling excessive amounts ofpersonal financial data on theblack market. They use thisdata to file fraudulent taxreturns using victims’ namesand Social Security numbers.

People like Sandie, of Cin-cinnati, who wrote me, “Iden-tity issue with IRS holding up2014 refund payment thatcould be used toward eyetransplant medications. Callsto IRS since May to no avail,just extend refund date withanother excuse.”

It took eight months and alot of work with the IRS be-fore Sandie finally got herrefund. That’s a little longerthan usual because the IRS

says the aver-age wait timeto get thingscleared up issix months.

Thenthere’s Doug-las, of Cincin-nati, whowrote me,“My wife andI are being

threatened by the IRS. Some-one used my Social Securitynumber in 2013 and owes theIRS. They filed their return inMarch of 2014 – we filed inApril, 2014 and received anotice that we had filedtwice.”

Douglas says matters got alot worse recently.

“We received a certifiedmail stating, ‘Notice of intentto seize your state tax refundor other property’ if we fail topay…We are shocked that theIRS can continue to harass usfor debt that we’re not respon-sible for. They’ve never evenshown us the tax return show-ing that we owe them moneyfor 2013. As a matter of fact,our legitimate 2013 tax returnshows that they owe us forthat year.”

I put Douglas in touch withthe IRS tax advocate who wasable to sort through the fraud.He has now been credited forthe money he paid and re-ceived refund checks for 2013and 2014.

The IRS its important toprotect your personal infor-mation by having securitysoftware on your computersand being aware of phonyemails and phone scams.

For the 2016 tax filing sea-son there will be new stan-dards for logging onto all taxsoftware products includingminimum password require-ments, new security questions

and standard lockout features.For the first time, refund

fraud victims will be able torequest a copy of the fraudu-lent tax returns filed bycrooks who used their stolenidentities. The IRS says therewill be partial or full redac-tion of information on thosetax returns to protect addi-tional possible victims. How-ever, it says, there will beenough data for consumers todetermine how their personalinformation was used.

UNION TOWNSHIP —Thanks to their recent domi-nance in the fabled “TrojanDome”, the Glen Este HighSchool wrestling team has wontwo of the first three EasternCincinnati Conference champi-onships, including last season.

It was the first title as headcoach for Chris Redmond, whowas honored as the ECC coach ofthe year. The Trojans lost wres-tler of the year Gage Branson,plus first teamers Evan Gottis,Jason Belcher and Matt Kenne-dy to graduation. However, Os-car and Angel Santana, BrandonHertel, Brandon Smith, AveryJones and Nate Stone return asECC first team selections for thepowers in purple.

Stone was a state qualifierlast season. Heavyweight SethCrissman was also a first teampick but is not wrestling this sea-son as he prepares to play col-lege football. In his place, Red-mond has added Austin Phillipswho missed last season due to in-jury and is now checking in at270 pounds.

“He’s wrestled since middleschool,” Redmond said. “He wascoming to camps and was excit-ed about wrestling last season,then blew his knee out. He’s backand all fired up. We lost a heavy-weight and gained one.”

More added depth will comefrom Western Brown transferTristan McGraff.

“He’s really tough andcould’ve been a district qualifierhis freshman year,” Redmondsaid.

In addition to his veteran sen-iors and experienced wrestlersfrom last year’s ECC champs,Redmond is encouraged by adozen newcomers who could im-pact the future at the new WestClermont High School eventual-ly.

“We have 12 from our fresh-man class and every one but twoare football players,” Redmondsaid. “I’ve always coached foot-ball and wrestling and I’ve al-ways tried to get those footballplayers to come wrestle for me.”

After early duals with Harri-son and Springboro, the Trojanstangle at Ryle Dec. 16 beforeheading to the Coaches Classicmeet at Harrison Dec. 19-20.

Amelia seeks to improve lastyear’s finish in the SouthernBuckeye Conference-AmericanDivision which was dominatedby league champion WesternBrown, Norwood and New Rich-mond.

Coach Chance Baysinger re-turns just two starters and willbe led by senior Jared Wieder-hold at 146 pounds and sopho-mores Vinny Gabriele (120), Eli-jah Murdock (138) and Eric Ken-nedy (152).

“We’re a young team withoutmuch experience, but we have abunch of hard workers in theroom and want to get better andare willing to put in the time.”

The Barons are in the Edge-wood Invitational Dec. 11 andwill be at the Blanchester Holi-day Duals Dec. 18-19.

Coach Deron Shinkle’s NewRichmond Lions finished thirdin the SBAAC-American behindWestern Brown and Norwoodlast season.

In search of their first leaguetitle since 2011, the Lions featuresenior Mike Jones at 152 poundswho was SBAAC-first team as ajunior. Junior Brandon Planckreturns as the Division II sec-tional champion at 126 poundsand was SBAAC-second team.

Other point scorers to look forinclude senior Shawn Elam at285 and sophomores Ryan Wolf(138) and Ryan Buckley (170).

“This year’s team is youngwith a lot of raw talent,” Shinkle

said.Upcoming matches for New

Richmond are against WesternBrown and Wilmington Dec. 9and Ross and BlanchesterDec. 10. They’ll also participatein the Roger Bacon InvitationalDec. 12 and Blanchester Invita-tional Dec. 18-19.

The Bulldogs will lose theirtop wrestler from last season inDarnay Foley.

Last season, he was the South-ern Buckeye Athletic and Aca-demic Conference champion,Batavia sectional champion,Southeastern district runner-upand was a state qualifier at 220.

However, Batavia wouldhave a couple solid wrestlersshould Andrew Truske and Jor-dan Cahall return this season.Both finished with winning rec-ords last season.

Tanner and Brennen Smithcould also return this year.

After 30 years, Williamsburgwrestling will be under newmanagement. Longtime coachMark Isaac stepped away fromthe lead role.

However, the Wildcats shouldhave more than a few faces theirfollowers know.

Kendal Johnson, Wyatt Lefk-er, Nate Golden, Randy Thorn-berry, Dawson Davis, Dylan Bai-ley, Bryson Vize, Spencer Clark,Christen Abrams, Shawn Tarvinand Trent Brewer can all returnthis season.

Johnson, Lefker, Brewer, Tar-vin, Davis, Bailey and Vize allqualified for districts last year.

The McNicholas Rocketsshouldn’t be counted out of theannual “King of the Hill” rivalry.

Jackson Gear and ThomasMoore, son of coach CraigMoore, wrestled for selectteams in middle school whichhelped them make the jump tothe high school ranks.

Prior to the postseason, Gearhad one of the better records onthe team at 25-8 with 12 pinsthrough Feb. 18 of last year. Hewas top-10 in the city in wins at145 pounds.

Moore, through Feb. 18, was21-12.

Rielly Dowell-Howko, the

team’s only returning King ofthe Hill winner from last year, isback for his junior season.

“Anderson has dominatedthis event for a number of years,but coach Moore has started todevelop a program over there atMcNick,” Georg said after lastyear’s King of the Hill. “It’s be-coming more competitive.”

BETHEL — At 7 a.m.on Dec. 1, Bill Jenikegathered his Bethel-TateHigh School footballteam together beforeschool. Some thought itmay have been a disci-plinary meeting or an up-date on off-season condi-tioning.

Instead, the Tigerscoach for the last fouryears informed them hewas resigning his posi-tion. Bethel-Tate just fin-ished 6-4 for their firstwinning season in 15years and made the Ohiostate playoffs for thefirst time ever.

The issue at hand re-volves around a reassign-ment this school yearwith Jenike’s day job inthe Mariemont Schooldistrict. He was movedfrom the high school toTerrace Park Elemen-tary which meant achange in school hours.

As a result, his workday ended after 4, whilethe Bethel-Tate varsityplayers were done short-ly after 2 p.m. Because ofthat, practices were heldlater in the day as op-posed to right afterschool.

“I felt I had to resignbecause of the time gap,”Jenike said. “My otherjob just doesn’t allow meto be fair to the programto lead it in the direction Iwould like to.”

Jenike was 14-26 in hisfour seasons, but 11-9over the last two years.

He had worked aroundnot being in the building,but this past season thetime crunch became toomuch.

“Where the programis now, to be fair to thekids, I think they need toget the right person inthere to go forward andbuild on it,” Jenike said.

The administrationhad expressed interest inJenike staying around,but the job will now goopen. When he first inter-viewed, he was one ofthree to express to inter-est. With their recent re-surgence, he hopes for anincreased number of ap-plicants.

“That job’s in a lot bet-ter condition now,” Je-nike said. “But, it’s reallyhard to coach whenyou’re not in the building.I made up for it by livingin the community and go-ing to the kids’ games. I

watch (Jeffrey) Bottswrestle and I go to bas-ketball practices be-cause (Coach Tom) Jutz-e’s a friend of mine. I’mnot leaving the communi-ty.”

Jenike also stoppedassisting Dave Falliswith the Lady Tigers’basketball team that hasfeatured daughters Tess,Brooke and Julia in re-cent years. They alsowere involved in the Cin-cinnati Angels AAU pro-gram which took up a lotof travel time. Youngestdaughter, Melissa is onthat same basketballpath and he plans to seeas many of her games aspossible.

In addition to the play-off run, Jenike was in-strumental in the rede-signed weight room atBethel-Tate to bulk up theTigers each fall.

“It’s a nice job,” Je-nike said. “It should beappealing to more thanapplied a few years ago.”

Having said all of that,the veteran coach stillgets a special feelingaround football seasonand won’t rule out a re-turn to the gridiron insome capacity.

“I don’t know if I canget away from it,” Jenikesaid. “I’m so used to justgoing and grinding andchopping the axe. You getthat in your blood and youwant to be around kidsand make a difference. Idon’t know. I’m not say-ing I’m applying any-where. I just always putthe kids at Bethel first.”

Bethel-Tate footballcoach resignsScott [email protected]

SCOTT SPRINGER/

COMMUNITY PRESS

After four seasons, BillJenike has resigned as headfootball coach at Bethel-TateHigh School.

UNION TOWNSHIP —A groundbreaking cere-mony was held May 28 forthe new consolidatedWest Clermont HighSchool, with some 200 peo-ple attending the event.The 370,000 square foot,$90 million school, on 78acres, will accommodate2,500 students and is ex-pected to open in time forthe start of the 2017-2018school year. It is an excit-ing time for the school dis-trict, to say the least.

More groundbreakingnews has been happeningaround Glen Este andAmelia High Schools thiswinter, and in somewhatunfamiliar territory … onthe diving board.

When people aroundClermont County think ofdiving, their thoughts im-mediately turn to Pat Ev-ans. The 1984 Glen Estegraduate and five-timecollegiate All American atthe University of Cincin-nati, won back-to-backOHSAA State titles (1 me-ter diving) in 1982-83 and1983-84. No diver hadcompeted for the Trojanssince that time until lastwinter, the 2014-2015 sea-son. A pair of Trojan div-ers even advanced to theDistrict Meet, as well asthe finals of the SouthwestClassic (the largest highschool swimming and div-ing meet in the country).

Head coach Lisa Wer-winski coaches the GlenEste divers, as well as div-ers from Loveland andAmelia High Schools.Wait, Amelia High School,you say? When was thelast time the school had adiver? The answer is nev-er.

For the first time inschool history, Amelia willhave a diver competingthis winter. FreshmanMorgan Southall, a com-petitive gymnast with nodiving background what-soever, is making quite asplash for the Lady Bar-ons this winter. Morgan isenjoying her first year ofhigh school and is lookingforward to the new WestClermont High School.

Glen Este will boast ofpair of divers this winter,and expectations are highfor both of these young-sters.

Bethany Berger, a ju-

nior, began diving lastyear and currently holdsthe Glen Este diving rec-ord for six dives. Shehopes to break the eleven-dive record this season.She was also a competi-tive gymnast before tran-sitioning to the water. Be-thany is also a member ofthe cheerleading squadand the track team at GlenEste.

Brennan Young is asophomore at Glen Esteand is a first-year diver.He is also a member of theGlen Este Dance Compa-ny and the track team. Heenjoys running, weight-lifting, and gymnasticsand tumbling.

“As former gymnasts,Bethany and Morgan haveadapted to the water quitequickly. While our focusduring the first half of theseason is on fundamentalsand basic skills, I expectthese girls to come onstrong at the end of theseason when it counts,”said Werwinski. “Bethanyhas trained throughoutthe entire off-season andis ready to challenge for atrip to the February StateMeet in Canton. Brennanhas also started to pick upthe basic skills and hasshown great potential.”

These three athletesare breaking ground to-gether. Sure, Amelia andGlen Este High Schoolsare rivals, and will be foranother year-and-a-half,but this year they are giv-ing us a glimpse into thefuture of West Clermont

High School diving. Butthis togetherness goeseven deeper than just thetwo Clermont County highschools.

Bethany, Brennan, andMorgan train closely withthe Loveland High Schooldivers who have adoptedthem as part of their team.Werwinski praised the co-operation she has re-ceived from Tiger athleticdirector Julie Renner andthe sportsmanship exhib-ited by their divers. CoachDavid Wolkoff, whocoaches divers from Ur-suline, McNicholas, Wal-nut Hills, and Wyoming,also works with the div-ers.

“These divers have aunique opportunity totrain with kids fromschools all over the Great-er Cincinnati area,” saidCoach Werwinski.

Over the summer, Wer-winski and Wolkoff start-ed a dry land diving pro-gram at Kids First SportsCenter (East KemperRoad) for divers of allages and skill levels. Thehigh school divers areable to train at the facilityduring the season, usingthe belts, trampoline,foam pits, spring floors,and dry board.

“I cannot express howgrateful I am to have theability to talk with andshadow these accom-plished coaches on a reg-ular basis. These kids arelearning from some of thenation’s top diving coach-es,” said Werwinski.

Howdy folks,It’s raining some as I

write this - maybe that’sbetter than snow. Theweatherman said we maysee some flurries thisafternoon. I hope you hada good Thanksgiving, Isure did. I went to mygranddaughter’s onWednesday evening’ thenon Thanksgiving went tomy grandson’s. All thefamily were at bothplaces.

I have been working inthe carpenter shop mak-ing squirrel feeders, theones that have a gallonjar where you put thecorn or birdseed. I havemade several bird feed-ers, some bowls, andflower boxes. The otherday as I picked up a ce-dar board that was twoinches thick and fiveinches wide, the goodLord gave me a thoughtof what to make. Some ofyou folks can do this also.Measure the length sameas the width then cut thecedar board. Then drillthree holes to same sizeas a pencil - that makes agood pencil holder.

TheBethelLions pan-cakebreakfastwill be 7:30a.m. to10:30 a.m.Dec. 19 atthe BethelHighSchool. All

the pancakes you want toeat so mark your calen-dar for this date. TheBethel Lions do so muchgood here in Bethel andsurrounding neighbor-hood. The club buys eye-glasses and of course eyeexams for school chil-dren and other folks too.It cost each memberseveral dollars to be aLion but when you see allthe good the club does forthe community, theschools, food pantriesand others it is worth it.

Last week I delivereda Thanksgiving meal totwo families - one for theGrange and one for theLions. Both organizationswill adopt seniors forChristmas - we do thiseach year. When a senior

or some one is alone onthe holidays that is a verylonely time. Please adopta senior or some lonelyperson so they are notalone on a holiday. Nowwith that said it is impor-tant to keep an eye onyour neighbor to see theyhave food and heat.That’s something thegood Lord would want.

The Bethel MethodistChurch had a Thanks-giving meal on Thursday.There were about 75 or80 folks that were there.They enjoyed the foodand good fellowship.Then on Saturday therewas another meal. Therewere more than 124 folksthat came to eat andKroger sure had the bak-ery goods to give to theKitchen of Hope for folksto enjoy. I worked bothmeals the same as a lot ofother folks. There is aprayer circle before thefolks come in and whilethe folks are eating therewill be another prayerfor all them.

Now the 360 Auctionon Mount Holly Road willhave their food auction

this Saturday. For thefolks in Brown Countythe 360 auction will haveanother food auction Dec.19. They have some verygood items to sell.

The Shepherd Housein Bethel will have a craftshow this Friday andSaturday. This may belate for some folks, but Ithink I wrote about thiscraft show last week so ifI did please come. Theyoung lady is doing asuper job. There is asnack for the schoolchil-dren and several thingsfor them to do. They canlearn to sew, cook, thereis a retired teacher thereto help the children with

their schoolwork, learncarpentry skills, learnabout the Bible, and thereare games to play. Thislady had the faith to dothis and trusted the goodLord to help her andwhen she needs some-thing it seems it alwayshelps. The Save-a-Lotstore will be open soonand that will be a blessingto the Bethel folks.

This is the season to bevery busy getting readyfor Christmas and folksare saying happy holi-days - no this is a MerryChristmas. We don’t needto keep Christ out ofChristmas. I think I willmake a lot of Christmas

gifts this year out ofwood.

As I write this Chesteris laying in my chair so Isat in Ruth Ann’s chair.He likes my breakfastespecially the Boostdrink. He is a blessing!

Start your week bygoing to the house ofworship of your choiceand praising the goodLord.

God bless all...Morelater
