They’ve been “very much touched” by the realization that cancer touches everyone, she said. “Every little bit counts,” said Kline. “That’s why I think it’s so important to realize how many people this awful disease af- fects.” That’s a sentiment echoed by Relay committee co-chair Annie Wright. “Relay is a family-friendly event to raise money, remember and encourage our loved ones and just have a good time,” she said. “Cancer touches every- one’s life in some way, at least once. What better way to support your loved ones than to come out and be a part of the Relay’s goal to find a cure to cancer as we cel- ebrate the American Cancer So- ciety’s 100th birthday this year!” Wright says she has high ex- pectations for this year’s Relay. The committee has had some “great ideas” that are being im- plemented this year and they’ve also been able to accommodate some of the comments and re- quests from the teams last year. Relay for Life is particularly important to cancer survivors. “Relay helps give them hope for more tomorrows,” Wright said, “hope that one day their families won’t experience can- cer in their lives and courage to keep fighting so one day, they will stand when we announce at Relay, ‘would the 15 year and over survivors please stand for recognition.’” There are 38 teams regis- tered and Wright said she hopes to get a few more set up for the event. Kline says they need “every person who’s willing and able” to come to Relay because together they can fight cancer. “We can finish this fight,” she said. “We can help people in our community and make a differ- ence.” Want to continue the conversation?

FLORENCE — “It CanWait.”

That’s the messageAT&T stores across thenation, including locationsin Florence, are spreadingabout texting while driv-ing.

“We are trying to con-vince people not to textand drive,” said Mark Ro-mito,AT&Tdirector of ex-ternal affairs for South-west Ohio and NorthernKentucky. “We love ourcustomers touse ourprod-ucts and services, but wewant them to use them re-sponsibly and not hurt

themselves or others.”Thewireless communi-

cation company has re-leased a customizable appto reduce texting whiledriving.

It has also participatedin a variety of activities to

promote the campaign, in-cluding screening a docu-mentary on the dangers oftexting while driving andencouraging customers tosign a pledge to refrainfrom such activity.

Employees from theMallRoad location partici-pated in the Florence Me-morial Day Parade. Theymarched, handed out “NoText on Board” stickers,and pledges to sign.

According to Romito,“Texting: It Can Wait” haswonoverwhathadtobe itstoughest audience yet: notteenagers, but rival wire-less companies. Verizon,Sprint and T-Mobile re-cently joined in on the ef-fort.

“Together, we can helpsave lives,” said AT&T’schairmanand chief execu-tive officer Randall Ste-phenson. “Texting whiledriving is a deadly habitthat makes you 23 timesmore likely to be involvedin a crash. Awareness ofthe dangers of texting anddriving has increased, butpeople are still doing it.With this expanded effort,we hope to change behav-ior.”

“We’re working rightnow on how to integrateand cover everything ourchildren need,” said Wal-ton, who serves on thecouncil. “I feel confidentthat the staff, site-basedcouncil and administra-tion we have will do ev-erything they can to offerthe programs childrenhave had in the past.”

Walton attributed themusic program and othercuts to theoverall staff re-ductions happeningacross the district.

According to Poe, 73overall positions havebeen reduced across theboard including positionsof staff support, districtoffice, teachers and cus-todians.

“Each school had to an-alyze theirsituationbasedon their particularneeds,” Poe said.

Federal sequestrationand reduction of funds in-

clude 19.5 Title I and Spe-cial Education teachersand 7.5 classified para-educator staff, Poe said.

“Those positions arefederal and won’t be com-ing back based on the se-questration,” he said.

The breakdown of re-ductions from state fundscomes in the area of 23classifiedpositions and23certified positions. Theschool board isworking torestore these 46 positions,Poesaid.Themusic teach-er position at Florence El-ementary is among thosepositions. Butler, the mu-sic teacher, was not avail-able for comment.

“We’re working ourbest to restore those posi-tions,” Poe said. “Somewill be restored once weknow what the state reve-nue picture looks like.They could be restored inJuly or August.”

Poe said having to re-duce staff is nothing newto the district.

“This is similar towhatwe’ve had to do in the lasttwo years,” he said. “Each

of those years we’ve beenable to bring back thosepositions. Hopefully thisyearwill be the same.Ourend goal is not to elimi-nate 73 positions.”

In addition to waitingto secure state funding,budget and audit commit-tees are lookingatways tocut costs,” Poe said.

“There’s only so muchreduction that you cando,” he explained. “Theproblem is you can’t util-ize a one-time revenue tooperate staff in the fu-ture. Right-sizing staffhas to be done accordingto the revenue you havecoming in.

On Tuesday, the Re-corder learned the schooldistrictwasworkingtore-assign Butler, the Flor-encemusic teacher, to an-other elementary schoolto teach music. At Flor-ence Elementary, theschool may integrate mu-sic into regular class-rooms.

UNION — When Ryle HighSchool student Zach Vasseurwalked across the stage to re-ceive his diploma May 24, theentire auditoriumerupted in ap-plause.

“There are no words thatcome tomymind todescribe ex-actly how I felt seeing himwalkacross the stage, only pure emo-tion,” Ryle counselor ConnieKepf said. “My tears flowedfreely. To knowhowhard he hadworked to be able to accomplishthat, how much he had strug-gled, to know what his familyhadtobeexperiencingwatchinghim.”

A littlemore than threeyearsago doctors told Vasseur that hehad less than a1percent chanceof ever walking again. He hadseverely injured his spine dur-ing training for the LorettaLynn’s Amateur National Moto-cross competition.

“Iwasmaking a 92-foot jumpand going too fast,” he said. “Iwent 120 feet and I droppedfrom the sky. I was paralyzedfrom the waist down.”

When he heard his chancesfor walking, he decided he wasgoing to beat the odds. Afteryears of physical therapy andusing a walker for support, hewalked across the stage.

“I’ve had a lot of people be-hind me, my family, people inthe community and at school,”he said. “My family is my mainmotivation.Theyhadfaith inmethat I’dwalk again and that gaveme faith in myself.”

Vasseur attends therapythreetimesaweekfortwohours

at a time. Administration andstaff members at Ryle helpedhim work out his schedule ofclasses around his therapy. It’snot easy, he admits, but it’s al-ways been worth it.

“There’snoquitting,”hesaid.Vasseur has kept a positive

attitude through it all, saidKepf,who’s worked closely with himthe last three years.

“Sometimes we forget that apositive attitude is able to over-come much of what life dealsus,” she said. “Zach refused toallow himself to be defined byhis injury.”

Vasseur said he plans to at-tend the University of Cincin-nati to study mechanical engi-neering.Onedayhewants to de-sign and build boats – a passionhe’s had since his youth.

Kepf has no doubt Vasseurwill be successful in his endeav-ors.

“I look forward to staying intouchwithhimandattendinghisnext commencement ceremonywithin the next few years,” shesaid. “He is without a doubt awonderful young man who hastouchedmany of us very deeplywith his example of how to over-come obstacles.”

UNION—EthanBrennanhadspent his baseball career as astarting pitcher but has spentmost of his junior season com-ing out of the bullpen.

When his Ryle High Schoolbaseball teammates neededhim the most, however, Bren-nan’s muscle memory allowedhim togo the full seven inningsand deliver the biggest win ofthe year to the Raiders.

Brennan’s three-hit shutoutlifted Ryle to a 4-0 win overDixie Heights May 30 in theNinth Region championshipgame in Florence. Ryle took a32-7 record into theSweet16 ofthe state baseball tournamentJune 4 in Lexington after Re-corder print deadlines. TheRaiders enjoyed their first re-gional title since 2007.

“I’ve been a starter prettymuch my entire life since I’vebeen playing baseball, so I’mused to going longer,” saidBrennan, who was overjoyedto be a regional champ. “It’sawesome. It’s amazing, actual-ly.”

Brennan stranded a runnerat second in the third inning,then left tworunnersonbase inthetopoftheseventhtoendthegame.

“He was on his game,” saidRyle head coach Pat Roesel.“He pitched real well his lasttwo outings. He had good com-mand and hewas lights out.”

Roesel had informed Bren-nan the day before the gamethat hewould get the nod in theregional final.

“I wasn’t really surprisedbecause we had gone throughall of ourmainpitchers,”Bren-nansaid. “In thebullpenwarm-ing up, I felt really good so Iwas thinking it could be myday. Iwasfeelingreallygoodatthe start. I tried to get aheadwith the fastball, and thenwork in the curve and the two-seam (fastball) a little bit. I gotthe first strike a lot of timesand that really helpedme.”

The Raiders scratched to-gether single runs in the sec-ond through fifth innings aftergetting the leadoff batter onbase in all those innings.

In the second inning, juniorTom Deters had a leadoff sin-gle and senior Tyler Lonne-mann drove him in on a sacri-fice fly. Junior Mason Forbesled off the third with a hit and

Deters got anRBIwith a sacri-ficefly.Inthefourth, juniorEr-ic Clarkson hit a double andscored on a two-out hit fromLonnemann. Forbes got onbase to lead off the fifth andDeters notched another sac flytomake it 4-0.

Forbes was the tourney’smost valuable player. Lonne-

mann, Brennan and ThomasBaumann were all-tourneypicks.

Ryle led theNinthRegion inoffense all season, averagingnearlyeightrunspergame,buthad to rely on consistent small-ball against Dixie to comple-ment the pitching of Brennan.

“You can’t count on hittingevery day,” Roesel said.“Sometimes you don’t have it,butEthanwas theman.Yougetthe leadoff guy on, yourchances of scoring go up expo-nentially. We just scratched itout.”

With a win Tuesday, RylewouldplayLoneOakorCentralHardin 8:30 p.m. Thursday,June 6. Ryle’s semifinal gameis scheduled for 8:30 p.m. Fri-day and the state champion-ship game is 7 p.m. Saturday,June 8. All games are at Whit-aker Bank Ballpark in Lexing-ton.

HEBRON — Except for oneplayer, the opponentwas differ-ent. But the end result was dis-appointingly familiar for theConner High School softballteam.

The Cougars lost a tough 3-2decision to Notre Dame in theNinth Region championshipgame June 2 at Northern Ken-tucky University. The Cougarsended the season with a 23-10record. Conner was playing inthe regional final for the sev-enth-straight year and eighthout of nine, but the Cougarshave only won one of thosegames (2009).

“Both teams battled reallyhard,” Conner head coach Kris-tin Koors said. “It was a goodgame between two good teams.Therewere a fewcalls that kindof went their way, but you stillhavetoovercomethoseandfinda way to win it.”

Conner faced a familiarpitcher in Notre Dame sopho-more Haylee Smith, who is inher first season at NDA aftertransferring from Ryle. SmithhadhelpedRylebeatConnerthepast three seasons in the NinthRegion final, two of those timesfrom the pitching circle.

Smith scattered six hits andstruck out seven Cougars. Shekept a 3-1 lead down the stretch,when Conner began the fifthand sixth innings by getting itsfirst two runners on base. In thesixth, Conner had runners onsecond and third to start the in-ning before Smith induced twosoft pop flies to the infield. Con-ner scored one run on a wildpitch but left the tying run onthird base.

“We battled hard and put theball in play. We had several op-portunities. We just couldn’tstep up and get the big hit at theright time,” Koors said. “We

were right where you want tobe, but I have to give credit to(Notre Dame). That could havebeen a huge inning that couldhave gone our way. Theystepped up and played well thatinning.”

Eighth-grade Alexia Snel-bakerandjunioroutfielderSyd-ney Himes were all-tourneypicks. They each had doubles inthe final, as did freshman sec-ond baseman Jenna Hicks andsophomore pitcher ElizabethSims. Brooke Maines and Be-thanyMainesscoredtheConnerruns, the latter as a courtesyrunner for Snelbaker after herdouble.

Himes, the three spot in thelineup, is poised for a big senioryear.

“Himes is a great athlete,”Koors said. “She’s smart. She’sfast.Sheplays thegametheway

it should be. She finds a weak-ness on the other team, she’s go-ing to take advantage of it. I’mexpecting a ton from her nextyearasasenior. She’sgot theca-pability to go to the next leveland play, and that’s somethingshe wants to do.”

Starting right fielder RachelMowl is the lone senior for theCougars, who will look to getback over the hump next sea-son.

“We talked a lot about thatthis season, making a play andmaking the next person step upand do something,” Koors said.“Our overall team speed, weusedita lot toouradvantage.Wehave to step up and take it to thenext level. Hopefully with a lit-tle bit of age next year, they canfind a way to put it together.”

I read in the paper lastweek candidates in BooneCounty are rolling out theircampaigns for 2014. BooneJudge-executive Gary Moore,always talking about howmuch he has accomplished,will be facing off against atleast one member of the FiscalCourt, County CommissionerMatt Dedden. Matt Dedden isa friend of mine with good

intentions buthe has reallyshown verylittle inde-pendencefromMoore,making a cred-ible run diffi-cult but notimpossible.

Commis-sioner Deddenand State Sen-ator John

Schickel, another name men-tioned as a potential candi-date, need to focus on two realissues in this race, a lack ofleadership and an absenteelandlord in the judge’s office!

For all Judge Moore’s brag-ging the stark reality is, BooneCounty is blessed with accessto three interstates, the 42miles of riverfront and a oncenationally recognized airport.

Basically people who arelooking for a place to work orlive are looking at location,location, location. It has beenirrelevant who’s held the gavelduring court meetings for thelast 15 years, the wisdom andforesight of previous officeholders to develop the infra-structure has enabled Mooreto reap the harvest of whatothers have sewn.

Today, however, change hastaken hold. Traffic congestionis a nightmare in many placesand the airport is a mere shad-ow of what it once was. BooneCounty voters need to be ask-ing some tough questions mov-ing forward, beginning withthe Sanitation District.

Why did Gary Moore votefor a consent decree causingSD 1 rates to jump 90 percentwhile debt has become over 40percent of the district budget?

Why did Gary Moore sup-port SD 1 awarding bids forthe construction that Taj Ma-hal off 3-L with cost overrunsand change orders of over 30percent?

Why did Gary Moore sup-port SD 1 spending $100 mil-lion on the Boone County sew-age tunnel when there was abonded bid for $10 millionless?

Sanitation is one of themost expensive utilities wehave. On Moore’s watch ratesare up and debt is at an all-time high.

Some question why, to somethe answer is simple, Mr.Moore and the other twojudges- executive have made aniche industry of raising cam-paign cash from those doingwork at SD 1. It might be saidthey have found a way to pro-vide for the public financingof campaigns through theirpay for play scheme.

It all started several weeksago when I got a call fromNorthern Kentucky SeniorServices. Since they receivestate funding, they wanted toinvite lawmakers to ride alongon their Meals on Wheelsprogram.

I gladly accepted theirinvitation and met with theperson I was going to ridewith, Mr. Floyd Grace. I wasimmediately impressed withhis outgoing personality. Ijumped in his car and webegan our day. We stopped atapartments, houses and evenone motel room, 18 in all. Thecommon denominator at eachstop was an elderly person inneed of assistance.

The other common denom-inator was Floyd’s compassionwith each client. He kneweach of them and their cir-cumstances personally. Hegave hugs, put meals in justthe right spot in the refriger-

ator and evenshut off aforgottenkitchen faucetthat had beenleft running.

The publicfunds spenton Meals onWheels andemployeeslike Mr.Grace are

some of the best dollars spentby the state of Kentucky.Floyd, who is also an accom-plished musician, shared withme that he had been workingfor the program for over 17years now. While it was easyfor me to see in just one daythat his job involved muchmore than just deliveringmeals, our conversations thatday underscored that fact.During his time with Meals onWheels, he had been the firstto discover that two of his

clients had passed away.Thankfully, there were

only happy experiences theday of my ride-along. Themost memorable stop on ourday was at an apartment com-plex for senior citizens whereI met Helen. Before we evenwalked in, Floyd told me to besure to ask Helen about herpuzzles. As we entered, Icould see why. Helen had alarge, complicated puzzle laidout on the kitchen table andwas working on it. My ques-tion was rewarded with a tourof her small apartment whereHelen, nearly 90 years old,showcased several framedpuzzles she has completedthrough the years. Most ofthemwere scenes of churchesand nature. She really lovedthose puzzles and they werebeautiful.

Floyd and I visited withHelen and one of her neigh-bors for about 15 minutes

before heading to our nextstop. As we were leaving, weasked Helen if there was any-thing else we could do for herbefore we left. She mentionedthat she needed a new bed.She showed me what she wascurrently using and it waseasy to see why it was givingher problems. It was smalland broken down.

I met several angels in ourcommunity during my ride-along, includingMr. FloydGrace and the other employ-ees of the Northern KentuckySenior Center. I would meeteven more as we worked tofind Helen a new bed.

Don’t leave a pollutedinheritance

I am writing because ourYoung Women’s church groupjust finished cleaning Long-branch Road with the BooneCounty Solid Waste Trash forCash program.

While we were picking up

the area, we were surprised athowmuch and the kinds of gar-bage we found. Some of theitems included an old metalrake, lots of plastic bags, pizzaboxes, packing boxes, way toomany liquor bottles, and picnicsupplies along with paperwaste. Considering that thisroad runs past Cooper HighSchool and through nicerneighborhoods, we were sur-prised with the items found.Thankfully most of thesethings were found in the wood-ed areas, not homeowners’lawns.

Our biggest concern wasthat it appeared that frequentdrinking parties take placealong the stream bed. Home-owners and others who drivealong the road need to be alertand report these events.

The waterways (which con-tribute to our drinking water)are being polluted and wildlifeis endangered by broken glassand plastic bags. This is not apretty inheritance for futuregenerations, or even our own.We all need to be watchful andcareful.

Hall of Fame sounds likepopularity contest

As the daughter, grand-daughter, great-granddaugh-ter, and niece of veterans of ev-ery modern war (with the ex-ception of the Korean War), Iam all for anything and every-thingthatcanbedoneforandinhonor of any veteran any-where. But I have just read thearticle, “Ky. Veterans Hall ofFameLaunched,” and Iamcon-fused.

I understand wanting to es-tablish a Hall of Fame, but forveterans?Whether ornot avet-eran died during his or her ser-vice or came home without ascratch, they are all still veter-ans. They all fought. They all

continue to fight.Thosewhore-turned alive fight to live a nor-mal life and get the benefitsthey deserve from the Depart-ment ofVeteransAffairs. Eventhedead fight abattle tobe rec-ognized.

Friends and family take upthe mantle, so to speak, andkeep their names on the lips ofthose alive today to remembertheir sacrifices. How do youdistinguish who should be in aHall ofFame?Thesepeoplearenot ball players; you can’t de-cide who belongs there basedon performance. The personhad to go “above and beyond.”What defines that?Mydadwas17 when he joined theMarines,and hismomhad to sign his pa-perwork so they would allowhim to go. He really wanted togo, so let’s induct him? In Viet-nam, his helicopter crashed,rolled down a hill, was ablaze,and took enemy fire. It was abattalion of North VietnameseArmy members against aboutsix U.S. Marines. He wasburnedandshot,andhestillhasshrapnel in his leg today.That’sit, let’s induct him?

At the end of the article itsays,“It’sthecommonman,”hesaid. “You don’t need a personwho has a lot of accolades; it’sthepersonwhois therealdeal.”All veterans are the real dealand should be treated as such.This Hall of Fame idea soundslike a popularity contest.

That’s not a way to honoranyone; that’s the way to dis-honor everything any veteranhas done.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Here are your “Saving GreenGoing Green $$” tips for June.This month’s tips relate to theupcoming summer season, andsaving money on your summeractivities and travels.

» Start a garden: Growing yourown fruits and veggies is a lot offun and cheaper than buying fromthe grocery store.

» Buy a reusable water bottleinstead of using costly disposablebottles.

» Use a bucket when washing

your car instead of letting the hosecontinuously run.

» Slow down ... use your cruisecontrol. This will help decreasehow fast you drive. Speeding inyour vehicle burns more fuel, andraises the risk of a costly speedingticket.

» Buddy up: Carpooling andcombining road trips are excellentand effective methods of reducingfuel waste.

By the way, volunteers areneeded for the River Sweep from 8

a.m. to noon on Saturday, June 15.Choose to make little changes

that make a big difference! If youhave any questions, ideas or wantto know how to reduce, reuse orrecycle, please contact me. Checkout our Northern Kentucky Re-source Guide at the following link:http://bit.ly/nkyresguide.

FLORENCE—Fitness isn’tjust about physical well-beingatMelody’s Boot Camp andLifestyle Fitness. It’s aboutinvesting in quality of life –creating a healthy community.

“My business started as away to give back,” ownerMelo-dyHoppius of Burlington said.“My focus is to give back andbring the community together,that’s what we need.”

Melody’s Boot Camp offersmore than a running club, anarray of fitness programs andemotional support. It offersmembers the opportunity forcommunity service.

The outreach focus startedseveral years ago whenMelo-dy’s partneredwith ImpactLife Church in Florence to helpthe church build a food pantry.Members brought in fooditems for the amount of poundsthey lost.

Since then,Melody’s BootCamp has collected 5,000pounds of food for the pantry.Food drives are now held twicea year during the spring andfall Get Fit sessions.

“Melody’s Boot Camp hasbeen great,” Impact StoreHouse Food Pantry directorRebecca Arsenault said. “Theyare our biggest supplier,they’re the reason the pantrygot started, it skyrocketed andit has beenwonderful. Theydonate somuch to us that wedon’t have to purchase anyitems.We knowwe can counton them.”

According to Arsenault, thefood pantry has given 35,000pounds of food have to familiesin need.

“Last year we helped1,000families,” she said. “This yearwe’ve already helped hun-dreds, giving out 2,000 poundsof food already.”

Community Outreach Com-mittee coordinator AmyRichieof Burlington said the goal is tokeepmembers aware thatthere are needs in the commu-nity.

“As a business, helping oth-ersmakes usmore a part of the

community,” she said. “We doas we see a need.”

The needs are plentiful andthe efforts abounding.

Other efforts include a shoedrive wheremembers collectall styles and sizes of shoes.Not even a year later, 350 pairshave been donated to theHeartHouseHomeless Shelter inAurora, Ind., and Rose GardenHomeMission in Covington.

Members also hold a bradrive, collecting gently usedand new bras. Donations weresplit between theWomen’sCrisis Center inHebron andThe Bra Recyclers in Arizona.

“As our participants werelosing weight and changingshape, theywere able to put touse their previously supportivegarments so we could find newuse for them,” Ritchie said.

Last OctoberMelody’s BootCamp started contributing tothe Breast Cancer SupportFund to support Chicks andChucks. Chicks and Chucks is aresource for breast cancerpatients who have little or nofinancial means to acquire theproducts and services whilebattling the illness.

“In our future, we haveplans for aHoxworth BloodDrive, workingwithHabitatfor Humanity and getting ouryouth active in giving back tothose around them,” Ritchiesaid. “For us, a healthier life-style is more than just eatingright and exercising. Beingactive in our community, giv-ing back to provide for othersand caring for others as a fam-ily is, simply, whowe are.”

Melody’s Boot Campwasformed in August 2009. Sinceit’s early beginnings of a fewfriends gathered inHoppius’back yard, the business hasgrown tomore than1,000mem-bers and resulting in a loss ofmore than 20,000 pounds.

“When I started the businessit was just for fun,” Hoppiussaid. “I never saw it as a busi-ness even as it started to grow.Most businesses are out tomakemoney, that is notmyfocus. I want to be seen as abusiness that gives and nottakes.We’re about the peopleand the community.”

Thanks to all of youwho stopped to chatwhile I was cooking upfun food with my friendand Price Hill Krogerexecutive chef DebGoulding at the Taste ofCincinnati. This was anew venue for Taste. Wewere in the P&G pavil-ion surrounded by up-scale restaurants of-fering amazing food.Our demo featured nat-ural foods, in-cluding Deb’sgazpacho withbasil crèmefraiche and mytabouleh. Thestudents fromour variousculinary schoolshelped preppedour food for 150servings, andthey did a won-derful job, chop-ping and mincing ingre-dients to perfection.

My family’stabouleh

This is the time ofyear I pick wild grapeleaves for scooping uptabouleh. You also canuse leaf lettuce. This is a“go to taste” recipe,wonderful as a main orside dish, or stuffed intopita for a sandwich. Ikeep tweaking the reci-pe and here’s my latest.Tabouleh uses bulghurcracked wheat (greatfor lowering cholesteroland a good source offiber). Every family hastheir own version.(Check out my blog forthe tabouleh video).

1 cup bulghur crackedwheat, No. 2 grind

5medium tomatoes,chopped fine, skin left on

1bunch green onions, slicedthin, white and greenparts

1 bunch parsley, choppedfine

1 small bunch radishes,chopped fine (optional)

1 large English cucumber,chopped fine, skin left on

1bell pepper, chopped fineCumin to taste, start with 1teaspoon

Handful choppedmint andbasil (optional)

Salt and pepperOlive, corn or safflower oilto taste (start with 4tablespoons)

Lemon juice to taste

Place wheat in bowland rinse under coolwater three times. (Whythree times? Becausemymom said so!).Leave about a 1⁄4 inch ofwater after the thirdrinse on top of the wheatto soften it. Let sit for15-20 minutes, untilwater is absorbed andwheat is tender. Squeezeto drain any remainingliquid out. Meanwhile,mix vegetables: Add allvegetables in largebowl, mixing gently.Add cumin, mint, basiland salt and pepper. Addwheat, and mix well.Add oil, a little at a time,and mix. Taste for sea-sonings. Add lemonjuice to taste.

Tip from Rita’sKitchen

Be sure and buycracked wheat that alsosays “bulghur” on thelabel so that it reconsti-tutes in cool water easi-ly. Jungle Jim’s sells

several grinds. I like theNo. 2 grind.

Deb Goulding’sgazpacho with basilcrème fraiche

Deb’s recipe is on myblog at Cincinnati.Com/blogs.

Mashed potatocakes with garlic

Boiling potatoes intheir skins helpsprevent sogginess.The egg holds pota-to mixture togeth-er.

1pound Yukon goldpotatoes, unpeeled

3 tablespoons butter,softened plus extrafor frying

1 teaspoonmincedgarlic or to taste(optional)

Palmful chopped parsley(optional)

Salt and pepper1 large egg, lightly beatenOil, about 1 tablespoon

Cover potatoes withcold water and cookuntil tender. Drain andcool just until they canbe handled and peeled.While still warm, mashand stir in butter, garlic,parsley, salt and pepper.Then add egg, combin-ing well.

BAPTIST

INDEPENDENCE — MelWright and Mike Riddlethinkthey’rerightontar-get with their new busi-ness, an indoor archeryrange on the border areaof Florence and KentonCounty.

They opened M&MArchery at 10112 Toeb-

ben Road in April, pro-viding a climate-con-trolled, indoor, 40-yardarchery range where be-ginning and experiencedarchers canperfect theirshots without wind orrain blowing their ar-rows off course.

The grand openingwill be Saturday, June 8.

“There really aren’tany indoor archeryranges in this area,” saidWright.

He said some childrenget started in the Nation-al Archery In SchoolsProgramwhile they’re atschool, butnot all schools

offer the program, andparticipation could belimited by fears aboutsafety or equipmentcost.

That’s why Wrightand Riddle offer bowrentals, as well as in-struction for childrenfrom age 6 to adults.

“What we do is helpthemward off their fear.They may be afraid ofshooting, or think they’renot strong enough toshoot, or they may thinkit’s going to cost a lot ofmoney,” said Wright.“Anyone can do it. Youdon’t need a specificskill.Anyonecancome inand be taught.”

Wright and Riddleboth are certified train-

ing instructors for Ju-nior Olympic ArcheryDevelopment and theKentuckyDepartmentofFish and Wildlife’s Ex-plore bow hunting pro-gram.

They hope to prepareteams for competition atthe regional and nationallevels and someday helpan archer get into theOlympics.

More informationabout the range and theirprograms can be foundat www.mmarchery.com.

Wright said public in-terest has been piquedby archers in recentfilms, such as “The Hun-ger Games,” “Brave,”“War of the Arrows” and“The Avengers.”

“A lot of people comein to de-stress,” said Rid-dle. “You have to relaxand use focus and con-centration.”

Erin Coburn, an 11-year-old archer whotrains at M&M ArcheryRange, said she finds

shooting to be relaxing.“I like it because I can

doanythingIdesire,”shesaid. “I can set my goalsand achieve them.”

Ten-year-old BrendenMiller has always beeninterested in shooting,according to his mother,Crystal Furnier. So whenhe started training at therange, it soon became afamily affair, which nowincludes Brenden’s 6-year-old sister, Laykin,and their dad, Adam.

“We looked for a longtime for somewhere todo shooting sports. Idon’t think there’s any-thing else around like it,”said Crystal.
