Ryan said he would like toincrease the transparency ofcouncil by televising orstreaming council meetings,cutting down on the amount ofemergency ordinances thecity passes and posting BlueAsh’s finances on ohiocheck-book.com.

Despite concerns from resi-dents, the plan to turn theclosed Montgomery Swim andTennis Club into a new neigh-borhood is moving forward.
Camden Homes’ initial planto turn the old swim and tennisclub into 29 luxury single-fam-ily homes was approved by theMontgomery Planning Com-mission. Montgomery Swimand Tennis Club, 9941 OrchardClub Drive, closed in Septem-ber.
Community DevelopmentDirector Tracy Roblero saidCamden Homes made changesto its original plans after hear-ing concerns from city staffand residents. The plans re-
duced the number of homesfrom 30 to 29, increased the lotsize to 6,000 square feet, in-creased the amount of openspace from 13 to 20 percent andincreased setbacks and buff-ers.
“They are trying to maxi-mum the distance between thenew and existing homes,” Ro-blero said.
Some residents were con-cerned about the density of thedevelopment.
“Twenty-nine homes is stilltoo many. We really encouragethe developer to reduce thenumber of houses further sothere will be an appropriateamount of open space for chil-dren to play in a safe environ-ment,” Orchard Club Drive res-ident Brian Monk said.
The plans still have to re-ceive approval from Montgo-mery City Council and the finalsite plans will have to be ap-proved by the planning com-mission, Chair Michael Harbi-son said.
“Many people who are agingwould like to stay here and thisway we are keeping 29 Montgo-mery people in Montgomery.We did cut it down to 29 as a re-sult of the last meeting. Wecould build 38 homes here. Weare just excited about the pro-posal. We have had a lot of inputfrom the commission,” CamdenHomes owner Dutch Cambruz-zi said.
The commission and resi-dents were also concerned

The Crain-Eberhard House,7737 Remington Ave., was builtin 1884 by wagon maker GeorgeCrain. Crain bought the landfrom Richard Parrott in 1882 for$150 and starting building thehouse along with a barn and oth-
er structures. Crain sold theproperty in 1896 for $1,650. Thehome was sold another time be-fore until Clay and Dora Adamsbought it in 1905 and lived therefor 55 years.
Dee and Tom Eberhard, thecurrent owners, bought theproperty in 1964. The coupleadded a three-room, two-storyaddition to the house so it couldfit them and their three chil-
dren. The house was made a Mont-

The Indian Hill Boardof Education will haveseveral new faces.
Incumbents Tim Sharpand Erik Lutz, whoseterms are ending, are notrunning again. Three new
candidates are vying fortheir two open seats on theschool board.
The candidates areNancy Aichholz, LyleFiore and Kris Pearson.
The candidates respon-ded to a questionnairecovering topics rangingfrom priorities in the dis-trict to the current legalmatter with the Commit-tee for ResponsibleSchool Spending.
The open seats are forfour-year terms.
Why are you runningfor the Indian Hill schoolboard?
Aichholz: “I believe theIndian Hill School Districthas a lot of assets to pro-
tect and en-hance. Myextensivebusinessand back-ground willserve mewell in thecapacity ofa school
board member.”Fiore: “I want to help
restore trust and trans-parency (to) our schoolboard. The board has suf-fered some degradation oftrust and respect over re-cent years. This is nothealthy for our districtfrom any standpoint. Weneed to be approachableand in the public gather-ings.”
Pearson: “I am runningfor the Indian Hill schoolboard because I wouldlike to move our districtforward in a positive man-ner by having greatertransparency and expand-ing opportunities for dis-trict residents to get to-gether and have informalconversations about theschools. I am looking tobuild district unity andproactively dialogueabout any potential is-sues.”
What skills do youbring to the table? Whatqualifications set youapart from the othercandidates?
Aichholz: “Aside fromhaving 11plus years in thedistrict with three chil-dren and four years at an-other excellent school, Ihave volunteered exten-sively in many differentfacets of the school dis-trict as well as many areasof the outside communityand have a significant cor-porate and entrepreneur-ial history including themanagement of $30 mil-lion plus complicated bud-get.”
Fiore: “I served on theIndian Hill school board inthe late 1990s. I know what
the com-mitment isand what isexpectedof us. Ihave anMBA in fi-nance and25 years ofwork in the
investment industry,mostly with Fifth ThirdBank. When I retired fromthere, I opened my ownsmall consulting firm. Ihave been on the IndianHill Public Schools Foun-dation board and theBoosters.”
Pearson: “My biggestasset as a candidate is mybackground in educationas a teacher and an admin-istrator. I will bring afresh perspective andvoice to the board, and Iam committed to effec-tive communication.”
What do you considerthe biggest challengesfacing the district?
Aichholz: “Fiscal re-sponsibility while main-taining academic excel-lence and other uniquevalue propositions, Com-mon Core issues (and) thepublic's perception of alack of transparency.”
Fiore: “The biggestchallenge is maintainingour high level of educa-tion at Indian Hill. Thestruggle is to be able tohire the best people andgive them an environmentin which they want to stayand work.”
Pearson: “The biggestchallenge facing the dis-trict right now is the law-suit levied by the Commit-tee for ResponsibleSchool Spending.”
What is your responseto the current lawsuitwith the Committee forResponsible SchoolSpending regarding tax-payer reimbursement?
Aichholz: “Unfortu-nately, due to attorney/cli-ent privilege, not much in-formation is availablefrom the current board, soit is difficult to make aneducated comment. It ismy hope that through col-laboration and wise deci-sions, this issue can be re-solved as soon as possibleso that we can get back tothe business of providingan outstanding education-al environment to the chil-dren currently in the dis-trict. This has gone on toolong and is an expense and
a distrac-tion. Ev-eryone willbe relievedwhen thisis over.”
Fiore:“Thisshould be anon-issue
by the time the new mem-bers join the board as it isin the courts at this time.It is a shame we had thiskind of discord in the dis-trict, but these things willhappen from time totime.”
Pearson: “I believe thelawsuit and all that led upto it are gross examples ofcommunication failures.Hopefully, it can be re-solved before I would takeoffice in January. I be-lieve a swift but fair set-tlement needs to bereached so that we can putthis matter in our rear-view mirror and move for-ward in a positive man-ner.”
How would you in-sure the district con-tinues to remain finan-cially solvent?
Aichholz: “I believe instrict budget manage-ment and will expectproof that dollars allocat-ed are working toward theprimary goals of the dis-trict, which will be deter-mined based on collabora-tion among the sharehold-ers of the district - admini-stration, staff, board,parents and taxpayers.”
Fiore: “The currentboard has managed tosave a year’s worth of op-erating funds in the bank.This allows us to go a longtime, even running defi-cits, before we would needto look at a levy or otherfunding options. The goalis to maintain a tight fiscaloversight without damag-ing the ability of the staffto teach.”
Pearson: “Our schooldistrict is funded at thestate minimum tax leveland has consistently at-tained superior academicratings. I would like tocontinue on that trajec-tory. I believe the schoolboard is responsible foranticipating and balanc-ing needs across the spec-trum (buildings, staff,transportation, etc.) andensuring that money isavailable as particularneeds arise. I believe thiscan be done while main-
taining our current levelof taxation.”
What is your opinionof Common Core prac-tices?
Aichholz: “While I amsure there are districtsthat benefit from the con-cept of Common Core, In-dian Hill School District isnot one of those. In fact, itis detrimental and a pooruse of resources for Indi-an Hill Schools. But, it isthe current law so we haveto work together to man-age it to our advantage.”
Fiore: “I know a num-ber of teachers who thinkCommon Core is wonder-ful and it probably is forless academically drivenschools. I think it actuallyis somewhat of a restrainton Indian Hill best prac-tices.
Pearson: “The Com-mon Core standards are adirect, bipartisan, educa-tion-driven response toPresident Bush’s No ChildLeft Behind’s govern-ment-mandated testing.The new standards areseen as a set of uniformbenchmarks to ensurethat a high school gradu-ate from any state will beready to begin collegewithout having to take re-medial classes. So I am insupport of Common Core.I am not in support of thePartnership for Assess-ment of Readiness for Col-lege and Careers assess-ment. It was poorly de-signed and way too hard toadminister.”
What can the commu-nity expect to see you fo-cus on in the upcomingmonths?
Aichholz: “Reunitingthe community by engag-ing them with the district.Focus will be on academicexcellence and prepared-ness for every child asthey enter their next aca-demic phase, while main-taining fiscal responsibil-ity.”
Fiore: “While I come tothe board with no personalagenda, one issue we needto really look seriously atis a later start time formiddle and high schoolstudents. The scientificliterature is replete withproof of the benefits.”
Pearson: “The commu-nity can expect me to fo-cus on improving trans-parency and enhancingcommunication with dis-trict residents.”

“In a community fo-cused on quality of life ini-tiatives that result in ourcitizens’ ability to aspire,achieve and advance, Iwas encouraged (to runfor council) by neighborswho believe that we arenot following that samephilosophy when it comes
to representation,” DelFavero said.
When asked what hewould do differently withanother term on council,Sirkin said he would liketo explore ideas to get citi-zens more involved in thecommunity. Del Faverosaid she would like to seepublic hearing televisedand for the city to increasecommunication with resi-dents.
Del Favero said the cit-izens can raise the bar incommunity engagement
by voting in fresh leader-ship.
“The issues facing BlueAsh city council have verylittle to do with politicsand everything to do withour day-to-day quality oflife. I strive to treat every-one with dignity and re-spect and listen to theirthoughts, ideas and frus-trations,” Sirkin said.

about the amount of traf-fic the new developmentwould produce. CamdenHomes conducted a traf-fic study on Orchard ClubDrive and estimated thedevelopment would in-crease the amount of tripsduring peak hours by 20 to30 vehicles.
“The traffic study isbased on the average sin-gle-family residences, de-spite the fact they are ex-
pecting mostly emptynes-ters in the community,”Roblero said, adding Cam-den Homes’ market ismostly emptynesters andthe homes will be de-signed to cater to that.
Roblero said the trafficin the area is already badand has been classified as“poor level of service” bythe city’s traffic engineer.It does not have enoughtraffic to warrant a trafficsignal based on the OhioDepartment of Transpor-tation’s guidelines.
“Traffic could beworse if we let someone
build apartments or two-families in there. Overall,I think they have done avery good job of listeningto the residents and tryingto work within the code,”Harbison said.
The commissionpassed a motion to zonethe entire area for single-family residential proper-ties and approved the ini-tial plans for the develop-ment.

OCTOBER 28, 2015 • NORTHEAST SUBURBAN LIFE • 7ANEWS
This still boggles my mind: Halloween is second onlyto Christmas as the most decorated holi-day. Not so when I was a kid. The housewasn’t decorated, and the eight girls in ourfamily were either witches or gypsies. Mybrother, Charlie, the last born, was alwaysa hobo. We used whatever we could find todress up and we left at dark, by ourselves,and came home with grocery paper bagsfull of treats.
Fast forward to Halloween 2015. Even ifparental rules are stricter, Halloween isstill so much fun! Here are last-minuterecipes for a ghoulishly good Halloween.
Homemade microwave popcornCheck out my Abouteating.com site. You won’t believe
how easy and inexpensive, not to mention healthy andamazingly tender it is. (Hint: 1/2 cup unpopped cornmakes a generous 8 cups, but there’s a secret technique!)
Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator, Jungle Jim’s East-gate culinary professional and author. Find her blog atAbouteating.com. Email her at [email protected] with“Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line. Call 513-248-7130, ext. 356.
Homemade Halloween treats kids can help make‘Glowing’ swamp punch
Let the kids help. They love the creepycrawler ice ring.
1 cup boiling water2 packages, 4-serving size each, lime
gelatin3 cups cold water1-1/2 quarts carbonated lemon-lime
soda, chilled
Pour boiling water over gelatin and stiruntil dissolved. Stir in cold water. Pour intopunch bowl. Stir in soda, making mixturefizz.
Unmold ice ring by dipping bottom ofmold briefly into hot water. Float in punch.Serve cups garnished with gummy worms.
Creepy crawler ice ring1 cup gummyworms or other creepy crawler gummies
1 quart lemon-lime sports drink likeGatorade
Arrange gummy worms in bottom of5-cup ring mold; fill with Gatorade. Freezeuntil solid.
Black cat cookie pops
Again, let the kids help. Don’t worry iftheir cookies look like something other thancats. It’s about creativity and fun, not perfec-tion.
1 cup creamy peanut butter1/3 cup water2 eggs1 box chocolate cake mixPopsicle sticksSugarCandy corn, red hots
Preheat oven to 350. Beat peanutbutter with water and eggs. Add cake mixand mix. Form into 1-1/2” balls and place onsprayed cookie sheet. Push in a popsiclestick. Flatten with bottom of glass dipped insugar. Pinch two “ears” at top of cookie.Press fork into dough to form whiskers oneither side of nose. Bake 10-12 minutes.Remove from oven and immediately addcandy corn eyes and red-hot nose, pushingin gently. If they happen to fall off after theycool, glue them on with a little powderedsugar glaze or canned frosting. Makes 2-3dozen
My best caramel corn
This makes a lot so feel free to divide in half. Adding dried fruitelevates this to a new dimension.
Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
15-16 cups or so of popped cornAbout 3 cups salted mixed nuts2 sticks or butter2 cups brown sugar1/2 cup light corn syrup1/2 teaspoon salt1 tablespoon vanilla1/2 teaspoon baking soda2 cups dried cranberries, cherries or apricots (opt)
To avoid sticking, use vegetable spray to coat both inside oflarge bowl, cookie sheets and spoons that you will use. Put popcornand nuts in bowl. Set aside. Over medium heat in a large pan, bringto a boil everything but the soda. Boil 5 minutes. Add baking sodaand stir. Mixture will foam up. Immediately pour over popcorn mix-ture, stirring well to coat. Pour in a single layer onto sprayed cookiesheets. Bake 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to distribute coating.Let cool for coating to harden; add fruit, and store at room temper-ature in covered containers. Makes about 20 cups.
Tip from Rita’s kitchenAfter popping corn, place in colander or bowl and scoop up
popcorn gently with hands. Any unpopped corn will lie in bottom ofbowl.

Did I miss something -again?
When I opened my NortheastSuburban Life Oct. 14, I wasshocked to see a Montgomerycouncilman criticizing my com-ments regarding leaf vacuum-ing in Montgomery.
Apparently, when you referto a vote it means you had anelection. The citizens of Mont-gomery voted or if you wishchose by a landslide to have leafvacuuming.
Semantics aside, Mr. Margo-lis proves my point exactly.
In Montgomery, you don’thave a vote or a choice on whatyou would like to see in the com-munity. So why pay for a sur-vey?
One further thought Mr.Margolis - maybe you shouldheed President Truman’s words“If you can’t stand the heat, getout of the kitchen.”
John Dawson Montgomery
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Oct. 22 questionWho-dey? How far will the
Bengals go this year?
“Super Bowl 50 champs.” D.H.
“The Bengals will go far-ther than the Reds did, butthen again, how hard can thatbe? They are playing well andwinning consistently – Yay!Now, if they can keep the inju-ries to a minimum we mightjust have something in thisteam. Since they are playing so
well and selling many seats,can we renegotiate the asininedeal our stupid city leadersagreed to with Mr. Brown? It isbeyond ridiculous for this citywith its level of financial woesto have to pay so much to keepa team here that gives darned
near nothing back. I want tohave pride in this team and Ido, but that pride gets verymuddled when thinking abouthow thoroughly Brown takesthe city to the cleaners year af-ter year after year.”

CH@TROOM
THIS WEEK’S QUESTIONShould college education be free? Why or 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.
Our brains, with their bil-lions of axons, dendrites, andneural connections are some-what like computers.
Together they provide anincredible opportunity toimprove and live better lives.
Since the 1970s, I’ve effec-tively used desktops, laptops,iPhones, iPads, wristwatches,eyeglasses and smart cars. Atage 74, I must ask whethermy life has improved, what’sleft of it, and the answer isyes, but in the process, vitalskills diminished. In someways, technology became acurse that interferes withsomething we of the pre-digi-tal age learned early on: tothink, to analyze, to createnew ideas and verbally com-municate our thoughts orwrite them down.
It’s no secret that oursenses are constantly bom-barded with high-tech imagesand data that have replacedverbal communing with
friends, neigh-bors, and God.Worshippingtechnologymay well costus our soulsand our cre-ativity.
Can wechange livesoverwhelmedby high-techdigital as-
sault? Yes! Start by rejectingthe view that the brain is acomputer and that your lifemust be programmed andchoreographed by digitaldevices. I take the simpleview, think of your brain asmore like an English muffinwith billions of nooks andcrannies. Yes, I like muffins,those filled with the right“fixins’ and fillins’ will roundout your life. The wrong oneslessen the meaning of life androb the soul.
But how do we nurture
mind, body and soul? Thismethod works for me. Putaside high-tech gadgets thatkeep you from using the non-digitally enhanced senses ofsmell, touch, vision, hearingand taste. Don’t throw thedevices away, just use themless. Write down yourthoughts, make eye contactand engage people verbally.Take long walks on a quietbeach at sunset or sunrise, orascend a mountain and viewone of Gods ever changinglandscape paintings. Take upsketching or painting. Whydoes this work? Because Godgave us hands to create andeyes for keys and conversa-tion as passageways that nur-ture mind, body, and soul.Look in the mirror and youwill see eyes that are the keyto the mind and conversationwith friends or strangersbecomes the passageway tothose nooks and crannieswhere memories wait to be
retrieved, and to the soulwhere the final answer lies.
Eyes, skin and digital de-vices differ in color, brainsand souls do not. It’s not colorthat makes each of us differ-ent, it what’s stored in thenooks and crannies that willbring each of us closer tofriends, neighbors, and God.God is the final answer thatall of mankind has striven andstrives to find and He doesn’ttext. To reach Him, put downyou IPhone, IPad, and laptop,and remove the earplugs andlisten to the world aroundyou.
Take care of your bodywith long walks. Pray and letGod fill those nooks and cran-nies with peace, understand-ing, and love for family andneighbors.
Search with your eyes.Smile. Talk. Walk.
Gerry Hounchell is a resi-dent of Montgomery.

Having said that, allow mesome ideas that may lead to asolution. First, let me say that Ido not hate anyone for theirreligion, ethnicity or national-ity. In fact, I find them interest-ing. Also, they are due properrespect providing they recipro-cate the courtesy. The recentsenseless killings in Oregonhave become what I believe is abelated call to action. So, hereare some of my possible solu-tions.
In spite of the senseless callsfor gun control from the Oba-ma Dysministration, we needan armed and qualified citi-zenry who are free to be amongus and would be a deterrent aswell as a potential stop to theirrational murders. The simpleidea that someone anywheremight foil the plans of an attackis a valid point to allow con-cealed carry for mentally andphysically qualified personswho would stop or completelyavoid future repetitions ofthese acts.
I would also require that thenearest of kin be held equallyresponsible for these heinousacts.
Having parents or othersinvolved would cause them tobe more watchful and control-ling of their charges. We alllove our children and want
them to be arespectedmemory to ourlives and ac-tions. Thosewho committhese terriblecrimes do notmeet this stan-dard. Hopeful-ly, parentalinvolvementmight prevent
some of these crimes. What iscoming in this essay wouldcertainly cause parents to be-come involved in the actions oftheir children.
So, let’s get down to my dras-tic measures to hopefully stopthese atrocities. First, if theperpetrator is killed in thecommission of the crime thebody is taken secretly to a re-mote part of the ocean anddumped into the water for fishfood. If the perpetrator sur-vives, minimal medical treat-ment only to preserve lifewould be given.
Following that, a jail cellwith the least possible comfortsand food would become home.There would be no TV, radio orreading material, except aBible of their choice. Therewould be no visitors or creaturecomforts other than a bed, sinkand toilet. The nearest of kinwould have no information oflocation, visiting rights or in-formation other than a notice ofdeath if it occurs during theirlife time. In any case the bodywould be disposed of in thesame manner as the dead per-petrator.
There seems to be a similarthread running through thesecrimes and that is denial on thepart of parents and authorities.These drastic ideas mightcause more attention to theactions of potential serial kill-ers. Will parents and authori-ties take action before a trage-dy forces it? Will the grievingon both sides happen less of-ten? We can only hope so until abetter solution is available.
In the meantime, the publichas to accept sad realities in-stead of hopeful fantasies ongun control. The writers of theSecond Amendment knew whatthey were doing.

Violence is out of control
Edward LevyCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST
Alas, their quest for rein-statement fell on the deafears of the board’s majoritymembers.
Recently, a national educa-tion newspaper published anop ed piece about student-ledstrikes. The writer listed 10reasons justifying a student“job action!” Reasons in-cluded: too many tests, inanesit-and-listen lessons, little orno input on dress codes, andno say in school decisions thataffect their lives as students.The article failed to includelife changing decisionsboards of education makeregarding the employment ofteachers and other membersof the school staff.
One very cold March dayin the mid 1950s the KnoxCounty Kentucky Board ofEducation fired all of theteachers who did not supportthe majority of candidateswho won seats on the board inthe previous November elec-tion. The 32 teachers and oneadministrator who dared tocampaign for the losing sidesuffered the ultimate employ-ment consequence for exer-cising their public right tochoose.
To the surprise of the localsuperintendent and boardmembers, when the studentslearned about the fatefuldecision, they organized astrike. The day after the staffmembers were dismissed, atleast 500 students from allsections of the county con-
structedstrike signsand formedpicket lines atthe entranceof each of thecounty’s twohigh schools.
Despite theformer princi-pal’s encour-agement to
return to school, the studentspersisted to conduct thestrike until the board re-versed its wrongful decisionand asked the teachers toreturn to the classrooms forthe remainder of school year.All accepted the board’s offerand school resumed the nextschool day. Near the end ofthe year, the music teacher, adismissed faculty member,directed the school’s choir inits final performance whichconcluded with the spiritual,“Goin to Sow What youReap!”
Meanwhile, the teachers’legal fight had only just be-gun. In an era when the basicmeans of communicationinvolved the dial telephoneand postal service, the wheelsof redemption turned veryslowly. The teachers heldmulti-evening strategic meet-ings in various homes to finda means to restore their posi-tions and professional integri-ty. Alas, their quest for rein-statement fell on the deafears of the board’s majoritymembers. In fact it wasn’t
until late summer that theKentucky Education Associa-tion filed suit to restore theteachers and administrator tothe positions they once held.
By the time the court ren-dered its decision requiringthe board to re-employ every-one, most of the teachers hadalready accepted teachingpositions in other districts orentered private business.Although lives were changedforever, reforms to the stateof Kentucky’s tenure lawswere seeded within the deter-mined actions of the KnoxCounty students as well asthe unfair dismissals of manyother teachers across the thestate.
Thankfully, 60 years agostudents rose to the occasionto defend teachers who paveda way for them to becomeproductive citizens in theircommunity and beyond. To-day, for those members of theteaching profession who stillquestion the need for unionsand the protection of statestatutes, this is just one storythat reminds everyone thatno one can stand alone andeveryone needs organizedrepresentation at some pointwithin their professionalservice.
By the way, the musicteacher and principal weremy parents.

Sycamore’s Kellen Alsip sets her ball on the green during the second roundat the OHSAA Division I state tournament on the gray course at the OhioState University Golf Club.
COLUMBUS – Riding acomeback win against Masonearlier in the day, Sycamore’sgirls water polo team came outenergized in the state final gameSaturday at Ohio Wesleyan Uni-versity.
The Aviators took a 4-1 leadagainst Upper Arlington, lastyear’s state champion. However,they couldn’t maintain the paceonce they had poked the Bears.
UA scored nine unansweredgoals to take a 10-4 lead beforeclosing Sycamore out 11-6.
“For three quarters of the
game, it went exactly how Ithought it would go,” Sycamorecoach Nicholas Hellwig said.“We came out fired up, ready togo. We played the game we need-ed to in those three quarters.Against top teams, you can’t giveup a bad quarter. Six goals in thethird quarter is hard to comeback from.”
Early on in the game, the Avi-ators’ passes were crisp, allow-ing them to set up their offenseand bury shots in the back of thenet.
But as the game wore on, theAviators started turning the ballover and fatigue began to takeits toll. That allowed the Bears to
go on the offensive.“They live on that counter-at-
tack,” Hellwig said. “We couldget to their first and second girlbut we couldn’t account for thethird and fourth girl. That’swhere they beat us. That extraline through.”
Even though the rough end-ing to a good season wasn’t whatHellwig and his team imagined,he said he wouldn’t change athing.
“It’s been fantastic,” he said.“Thirty-one wins in a season isamazing. We were one short ofthe (school) record but I don’tcare. I’d give anything for themto have this season again.”

SYCAMORE TWP. – Inmatching green sweatsuits, theSycamore High School girlstennis team spent the weekendof Oct. 16-18 across from KingsIsland, then east of Columbus,in Reynoldsburg. Along theway, they traded their tennissticks for bread sticks at the Ol-ive Garden in Lancaster.
Though not the most exoticof field trips, this was a businesstrip for Greater Miami Confer-ence Coach of the Year MikeTeets and the Lady Aves.
The goal? More trophies.This fall’s finale began at the
Lindner Family Tennis Centerwith senior Alexa Abele repre-senting Sycamore in singles andsenior Maggie Skwara andfreshman Helen Sotropa mak-ing a Division I state appear-ance in doubles.
Skwara and Sotropa’s exitedafter a first-round loss, but therest of the Lady Aves stayed tocheer on Abele, who defeatedopponents from Rocky RiverMagnificat and Dublin Jerometo move to the next day.
On Oct. 17, Abele beat MountNotre Dame’s Kelli Niehaus, be-fore joining the Sycamore
green girls for a picnic lunch inbetween the vast array ofcourts. The Lady Aves then hud-dled to watch Abele and GMCfoe Emily Thomas of Princetonin the final.
Thomas won the match, butthat wasn’t the end of Syca-more’s weekend. After dustingoff his troops, Teets steeredAbele and the Lady Aves towardReynoldsburg, home of the OhioCoaches Tennis Association
team semifinals and finals.For those who didn’t make
the state tourney, it was onemore day for a season that be-gan in August.
“There’s that sense of excite-ment throughout the whole sea-son,” Teets said. “When youmake it to the final four youmaintain that excitement.”
Sycamore began the morn-ing of Oct. 18 with a win over To-ledo Notre Dame, which put
them in the championshipagainst Dublin Jerome. ThoughAbele was in a second set tie-breaker and third singles was ina third set, the Lady Aves fell insecond singles and in both dou-bles matches.
“It was a good competitivematch, but they were just a littlebit stronger,” Teets said. “Wetried to load up in doubles, butthey were just too strong.”
Teets had senior Maggie
Skwara team with freshman Sa-rah Wittenbaum in first doublesand moved sophomore KaitlynChiang to second singles. SeniorBrianna Dooley, normally adoubles player, played third sin-gles.
“She did an outstanding job,”Teets said of Dooley. “She was ina third set. We were thrilledwith her effort.”
Though it was long, it was afun weekend for the Lady Avesto reach the highest levels oftennis after talking about it alloffseason.
“You’re disappointed whenyou don’t win the final match,but I think they all know theyachieved more than a lot of peo-ple might have suspected,”Teets said.
Sycamore’s starting sevenall finished second team GMCwith three reaching the statelevel individually in addition tothe team tournament. Teetsmust now replace departingseniors Abele, Caroline Gao,Dooley, Raquel Levitt andAmanda Peck.
“We’ll do the best we can, butwhen you lose that many sen-iors, that’s a tough assignment,”Teets said. “We’ll start workingright away to work toward nextyear.”

God has tasked us to re-weave “shalom” into ourcommunities through thework that we do, said thedirector of a nationalfaith-at-work institute toAt Work on Purpose lead-ers at its annual leader-ship summit.
Hugh Whelchel, execu-tive director of the Insti-tute for Faith, Work andEconomics in Washing-ton, D.C., told about 150Cincinnati AWOP leadersthat what we do in ourlives at work matters inthese four areas: church,family, community andvocation. The nonprofitorganization has officesin Blue Ash and Mason.
AWOP has 8,000 mem-bers in Greater Cincinnatiand is the nation’s largest,citywide marketplaceministry. It is expandinginto Dallas, Dayton andNairobi, Kenya.
AWOP’s Citywide Mar-ketplace Ministries or-ganization tool kit andMission2Monday pro-gram allows city leadersaround the world to imple-ment AWOPs in their owncommunities.
AWOP founder andpresident Chuck Proudfittraveled to Nairobi inJune and taught entrepre-neurs there how to formand sustain marketplaceministry, or BIZNISTRYbusinesses.
“We want to help othercities embark on a jour-ney like we have,” Proud-fit said, “in a way that al-lows people to expressand meet the felt needs oftheir communities.”
AWOP’s mentoringprogram with CincinnatiChristian Universitymatches a sophomorebusiness student with aChristian businesspersonto provide guidance andpurpose as young peoplebegin their careers.
AWOP has sevenmonthly business round-table groups, or “collabo-ratories” in Cincinnati.Those interested can con-tact Laura Jackson at 513-477-2652.

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.

all Kentuckians smoke. We lead the
