ALEXANDRIA — Todd Schaf-er is bringing “A CroonerChristmas” back to the CalvinA. Perry Recreation Center,8236 West Main St., from 3-5p.m. Sunday, Dec. 15.

Admission is free to the mu-sical performance althoughdo-nationswill beacceptedfordis-tribution to needy individualsand families in Campbell Coun-ty.

“Every year we do this andevery year I have to explain to

some peoplewhat a ‘crooner’is,” said Schafer,who sang profes-sionally on tourwith LawrenceWelk before tak-ing over Alexan-dria’s recreationcenter.

“A crooner is a schmoozesinger, like Bing Crosby orFrank Sinatra, or other singersfrom that era.”

Schafer said the perfor-mances include volunteer mu-sicianswho only come together

for this annual event to playChristmas classics along withcountry, gospel and other fa-vorite songs.

“We take requests, and wetry to fit everything in,” saidSchafer. “We wing it.”

Many people who partici-pate in classes or walking ac-tivities at the recreation centerhave come to cherish the per-formance each year.

“I love to hear him sing,”said Joan Kramer of Alexan-dria,whoregularlywalksat thecenter. “I enjoy it every year. Idon’t have a lot of Christmas

spirit thesedays, but it does getme into the spirit each year.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed it,”said Ron Estep of Alexandria,who attended in 2012 for thefirst time with his wife andtheir granddaughter. “Todd’sgot agreat voice, and it’s nice tosee the community come to-gether. It’s likeAdvent; it reallysets the mood for Christmas.”

“It’s great, and it sure doesget you in the Christmas spir-it,” saidMary Turner of Butler.“I do love Todd’s singing.”

Santa Claus makes an ap-pearance during the produc-

tion, which also features freehot chocolate, coffee, cookiesand candy canes.

Schafer saidhewasmotivat-ed to start the event eight yearsago,whenhe neededmoney formedical procedures. Sincethen, despite his continuingpoor health, he has turned theevent into a way to help thecommunity and “to share a lit-tle Christmas spirit.”

Crooner Christmas features holiday favorites and moreBy Amy [email protected]

Resource center extendsinvitation to be an elf

BELLEVUE — You don’t needpointy ears or to live in theNorth Pole to be an elf.

The Family Connections Re-source Center, which servesstudents at Southgate Schooland Bellevue’s Grandview Ele-mentary, is offering the oppor-tunity this holiday season.

The center’s Holiday Elvesprogram invites residents andbusiness owners to play Santa’self to a child in need.

“Every year they receivemore than 100 requests for as-sistance for children within ourschool districts,” center coordi-nator Rob Sanders said. “We doas much as we can to line thosefamilies up with agencies andprograms that exist throughoutour area, like Shop with a Copand theBengals’Kicks forKids.However, each year we have anumber of children we simplycannot place.”

That’s where the HolidayElves program, in existence formore than 20 years, comes intoplay. Sanders said private do-nors are matched with a childages 2 to 15.

“We don’t expect our elves tobe the end all for each child, butwe ask that they help makethings just a bit brighter,” hesaid. “We ask that the elves pro-vide basic needs like socks,shoes, coats and underwear,thenperhapsaddagift ora toy.”

Those who sign up to be anelf, are given a description ofthe child including his or her

age, grade, interests and cloth-ing sizes. After purchasing the

gift the donor can drop it off,wrapped or unwrapped, at thecenter at either school. Thecen-ter will pass the gifts along tothe child’s family for ChristmasDay.

“It is just one day out of theyear, but it’s a day that a childcan get that opportunity to for-

get about their difficult circum-stances,” Sanders said. “This isan opportunity for them to feelgood about themselves andtheir parents and that impactstheir feelings about school andto me that’s important.”

Sanders said this year, al-most 70 children have beenidentified for the program. Toparticipate in the program andhelp a child in need, contactSanders at 859-261-9073 or [email protected].

Drusilla Bricking of Belle-vue said she thinks theprogramis wonderful. She is a volunteerwho helps distribute the donat-ed gifts.

“Without this program therewould be a lot of children outthere who wouldn’t get gifts,”she said.

According to Bricking, thechildren and their parents ap-preciate the program.

“It means a lot to those whoare helped, she said. “With thisprogram parents are able to getwhat they need for their chil-dren and that means the worldto them.”

Thebestpart of it all, accord-ing toSanders, is theoutpouringof appreciation.

“My favorite part iswhen it’sover,” Sanders said. “Our officeis flooded with thank you notesfrom the little guys and theirparents.”

ALEXANDRIA — SteveStapleton didn’t want totake center stage, but hedid give Campbell Countythe money to build one atA.J. Jolly Park.

Stapleton, of Alexan-dria, said the televisioncamera pointing at him atthe Dec. 4 Fiscal Courtmeeting is not the type ofthing he seeks out.

He handed Judge-ex-ecutive Steve Pendery acheck for $119,000 fromthe Stapleton FamilyTrust – covering the fullcost of a new outdoor pa-vilion stage overlookingthe lake at the 1,000-acrecounty park.

“I normally don’t dopublic stuff, and I normal-ly don’t do donations pub-licly, but I felt compelledto say a few things aboutthis,” Stapleton said.

Stapleton said he metPendery a year ago whenthe judge-executivesfrom Boone, Kenton andCampbell each gave apresentation about theircounties. Stapleton wasimpressed by Penderytalking about the need forpeople to get involvedwhere they live and theidea of public-private

partnerships. Stapletonmoved to Campbell Coun-tynineyearsagofromEd-gewood.

A member of theNorthern KentuckyHorseNetwork,Stapletonsaid he rides horse trailsat the park, and has beenpaying attention to thework of the not-for-profitJolly Park CommunityDevelopment Council tobring improvements.

“A.J. Jolly is a beauti-ful park, it’s a diamond inthe rough,” he said.

The donation wasmade in honor of Staple-ton’s father, Joseph. Sta-pleton said his father tookthe family on outings toparks in Indiana and satand enjoyed watchingpeople having fun.

“When Mr. Penderytoldme about the A.J. Jol-ly thing I thought thatsounds like somethingmy

dad would really appreci-ate sitting there watchingpeople going to concerts.”

Pendery asked KevinHanson of Alexandria,chairman of the commu-nity development council,and Cold Spring residentWalt Dunlevy, vice chair-man, to come take Staple-ton’s donation and speakat the meeting.

Dunlevy said the nameof the stagewill be the Jo-seph J. Stapleton Stageand Theater.

The donation will payfor costs associated withbuilding the stage, Dunle-vy said. Plans for thestage are being rede-signed and tweaked rightnow, he said.

“The hope is to get un-der construction in lateMarch (2014),” Dunlevysaid. “We’d like toget it upand in place so we can getsome good standing grass

before we have anotherevent.”

The council organizeda 50th anniversary partyfor the county park in Au-gust 2013. The goal is to

have another event againin August, Dunlevy said.

Pendery said the out-door stage will help drawpeople to A.J. Jolly.

RECORDER

ALEXANDRIA — Camp-bell County has created anew economic develop-ment officer position toretain and create jobs.

Fiscal Court unani-mously approved creat-ing the position and an au-thorization to advertisefor candidates andmakeahire at theDec. 4meeting.

Previously, the Camp-bell County EconomicProgressAuthority, anon-profit corporation affili-ated with the county fo-cused on developmentand redevelopment,maintained a president

position with similar du-ties.

The CCEPA presiden-

cy has been vacant sinceAdam Caswell left in Au-gust 2012, said CampbellCounty AdministratorRobert Horine. The CCE-PA had two other presi-dents besides Caswellsince the job was createdin 2008.

Caswell left to becomevice president of publicaffairs for the NorthernKentucky Chamber ofCommerce after 18months as the CCEPA

president.CCEPA has agreed to

provide half of salary andbenefits for the positionfor the next two years sosomeone is focused oneconomic development inthe county, Horine said.

Thepositionwasestab-lished at grade 18 with asalary range of $60,000 to$90,000, he said.

“The salary, it will de-pend on the experienceand qualifications of thecandidate that’s recom-mended,” Horine said.

Among duties of thenew position will be over-sight of the county’s JobsDevelopment Program.The county started theprogram in 2011, and theCCEPA president previ-ously helped arrangedeals under the program.Companies accepted intothe program for expand-ing or relocating toCamp-

bell County are eligiblefor a maximum of a 40percent payroll tax de-duction for 10 years foranynew jobs created. Thecounty accepted XPO Lo-gistics Inc. into the incen-tive program in October2013. The county incen-tive covered 88 of the 150positions XPO brought toNewport.

Judge-executive StevePendery said hiring aneconomic developmentofficer is a need becauseHorine is spending about20 hours a week workingon economic issues.

Having an economicofficer eventually be-come a county employeehas been planned formany years since theCCEPA started funding apresidency position in2008 on a trial basis, Pen-dery said.

ALEXANDRIA — TheCampbell County Conser-vation District’s missionof conserving farmlandand natural areas hasbeenmoved into the coun-ty’s historic Alexandriacourthouse built in 1840.

The district’s electedboard had their firstmeeting inside the newcourthouseofficespaceat8350 E. Main St. Dec. 2.

“Wefelt likeweneededto better use the countyfacilities,” said Ron Mc-Cormick, chairman of theconservation districtboard.

McCormick said mov-ing into the courthouseputs the district office in-side a recognizable land-mark.

The conservation dis-trict moved into the for-mer county clerk’s spacein the Alexandria court-

house.Theclerk’sAlexan-dria office was moved in

2006acrossU.S. 27 to8330 W.Main St.The coun-ty’s FiscalCourtmaintains ameetingroom onthe court-

house first floor, and thesecond floor is home tothe Campbell County His-torical and GenealogicalSociety.

The conservation taxdistrict was establishedby petition in 1945 inCampbell County. Theseven soil and water con-servation boardmembersare elected to four-yearterms and serve withoutpay.

McCormick said thedistrict’s programs in-clude approving agricul-turaldistrictswithat least

250 acres of land, and con-serving natural areas.

There are now 14 agri-cultural districts in thecounty, and the conserva-tion district maintainstwo land preserves.

The conservation dis-trict took over steward-ship of the previously es-tablished St. Anne Woodsand Wetlands in Mel-bourne Nov. 21. The Con-gregationofDivineProvi-dence preserved the 100-acre wetland along theOhio river in 2008, andadded the 50-acre wood-land in April 2013.

The Hawthorne Cross-ing Conservation Area on140 acres of land near Al-exandria overlooking theLicking River was pre-served in 2008. The con-servation district pur-chased the former dairyfarm using $800,000 fromKentucky’s sale of naturevehicle license plates foran additional $10.

ALEXANDRIA — TheCampbell County Conser-vation District’s missionof conserving farmlandand natural areas hasbeenmoved into the coun-ty’s historic Alexandriacourthouse built in 1840.

The district’s electedboard had their first

meeting inside the newcourthouseofficespaceat8350 E. Main St. Dec. 2.

“Wefelt likeweneededto better use the countyfacilities,” said Ron Mc-Cormick, chairman of theconservation districtboard.

McCormick said mov-ing into the courthouseputs the district office in-side a recognizable land-

mark.The conservation dis-

trict moved into the for-mer county clerk’s spacein the Alexandria court-house.Theclerk’sAlexan-dria office was moved in2006acrossU.S. 27 to8330W. Main St. The county’sFiscal Court maintains ameeting room on thecourthouse first floor, andthe second floor is home

to the Campbell CountyHistorical and Genealogi-cal Society.

The conservation taxdistrict was establishedby petition in 1945 inCampbell County. Theseven soil and water con-servation boardmembersare elected to four-yearterms and serve withoutpay.

McCormick said thedistrict’s programs in-clude approving agricul-turaldistrictswithat least250 acres of land, and con-serving natural areas.

Various grants for con-serving agriculture areoffered by the district in-cluding funds toeliminateerosionandtopayfornon-traditional operations in-

cluding goats and rabbitfarming, said Mary Kath-ryn Dickerson, districtcoordinator for theCamp-bell, Kenton and Boone

conservation districts.Applications for tobac-

co cost sharemoney fromthe Governor’s Office ofAgricultural Policy arealso accepted annually bythe district, Dickersonsaid.

This year’s share forCampbell County was$50,000, and farmers nowusethemoneyfor improv-ing crop production, shesaid.

The money was origi-nally intended to helpfarmers shift away fromtobacco production, Dick-erson said.

The Campbell CountyFarmlandWorkGroup, anaffiliated group of farm-ers focused on improvingthe economic viability ofagriculture, is sponsoredby the district she said.

The Farmland WorkGroup organizes the an-nual Backroads FarmTour in Campbell Countyeachyear on the third Sat-urday in July.

Additionally, the im-plementation of federalgrants awarded to farm-ers are overseen by thedistrict, Dickerson said.

ALEXANDRIA — Camp-bell County has created anew economic develop-ment officer position toretain and create jobs.

Fiscal Court unani-mouslyapprovedcreatingthe position and an autho-rization to advertise forcandidates and make ahire at theDec. 4meeting.

Previously, the Camp-bell County EconomicProgressAuthority, a non-profit corporation affiliat-ed with the county fo-cusedondevelopmentandredevelopment, main-tainedapresidentpositionwith similar duties.

TheCCEPApresidencyhas been vacant sinceAdam Caswell left in Au-gust 2012, said CampbellCounty AdministratorRobert Horine. The CCE-PA had two other presi-dents besides Caswellsince the job was createdin 2008.

Caswell left to becomevice president of publicaffairs for the NorthernKentucky Chamber of

Commerce after 18months as the CCEPApresident.

CCEPA has agreed toprovide half of salary andbenefits for the positionfor the next two years sosomeone is focused oneconomic development inthe county, Horine said.

The positionwas estab-lished at grade 18 with asalary range of $60,000 to$90,000, he said.

“The salary, it will de-pend on the experienceand qualifications of thecandidate that’s recom-mended,” Horine said.

Among duties of thenew position will be over-sight of the county’s JobsDevelopment Program.

The county started theprogram in 2011, and theCCEPA president previ-ously helped arrangedeals under the program.Companies accepted intothe program for expand-ing or relocating to Camp-bell County are eligibleforamaximumofa40per-cent payroll tax deductionfor 10 years for any newjobs created. The countyaccepted XPO LogisticsInc. into the incentive pro-gram inOctober 2013. Thecounty incentive covered88 of the 150 positionsXPO brought to Newport.

Judge-executive StevePendery said hiring aneconomicdevelopmentof-ficer isaneedbecauseHo-rine is spending about 20hours a week working oneconomic issues.

Havinganeconomicof-ficer eventually become acounty employeehasbeenplanned for many yearssince the CCEPA startedfundingapresidencyposi-tion in2008ona trialbasis,Pendery said.

“Theprogramhasbeenjudged a success, andwe’re supporting it as afiscal court at this mo-ment and into the futureas long as our yardsticksare met,” Pendery said.

Commissioner KenRechtinsaidhespokewithPendery about creatinggoals for the number ofnew positions created inthe county by the econom-ic development officer.

“We’re really shootingin the dark without a realscorecard, so I’m pleasedto hear we’re going to setthose in place,” Rechtinsaid.

Rechtin also said hewanted to find out if CCE-PA can pay its half of thesalary for the job this fis-cal year ending June 30,2014. Ideally, the countycan pay its half out of thenext year’s budget, hesaid.

Commissioner BrianPainter said the new posi-tion isn’t in the county’sbudget for this year, butthere are contingencies tocover the additional cost.

“This is a very impor-tant position,” Paintersaid. “We’re at maybe the

start of another economicupturn and we’ve gotsome takers on some ofour programs that we’veput out there for taxbreaks.”

Painter said there arejobs coming into the coun-ty because of the incen-tive programs.

“If there wasn’t someaction on some these pro-gramswewouldn’tneedtohire somebody,” he said.

Painter said the countyshould decrease the costof county employeessomewhere else to bal-ance out the increase incounty payroll caused byadding the new economicdevelopment officer.

“I think there’s an op-portunity to do some part-timing,” he said. “I hate toeven talk about that, tohave to take somebodyfrom a full-time to a part-time, but there’s prioritiesand this is a high priority.”

“I’m not afraid to talkabout part-time,” he said.“I live in a part-timeworld. And I have part-time jobs that I do, andthat’s just the way thingsare these days.”

BOWLING GREEN — After a1-4 start to the 2013 season, theNewport Central Catholic HighSchool football teamnevergavein, instead focusing on constantimprovement as players andcoaches fought for a return tripto familiar territory.

The Thoroughbreds faced ateam with similar determina-tion Dec. 7, and although the‘Breds didn’t give in, they fellshort of their third state cham-pionship in four years. New-Cath fell 34-26 to Louisville De-Sales in the Class 2A state finalat Western Kentucky Univer-sity.

“It’s rough right now,” NCCsenior quarterback Mac Fran-zen said. “We had a great sea-son. It’s been the best seasonwith these guys andwehad a lotof fun. We battled today but fella little bit short.”

The game spoiled a careerday from senior receiver Tom-my Donnelly, who had ninecatches for 203 yards and twotouchdowns. Several of thosegrabs were tough plays in traf-fic a step or two inside the side-line. The yardage is a newschool record.

“Hehadagreat game,”Fran-zen said. “He came up huge forme tonight and we had a goodconnection. Theyput him in sin-gle coverage and we were justtaking advantage of it.”

Franzen completed 16-of-26passes for 318 yards and threescores, including one to Bran-donGray.Theyardagewasaca-reer high.

The Thoroughbreds trailed34-13 heading into the fourthquarter after some what-ifplays went against them. New-Cath failed to score on a fourth-and-goal at the end of the firsthalf, and also had a fumble inDeSales territory at the 27.NewCath also had a kickoff re-turn touchdown from JacobSmith called back by a holdingpenalty.

Following the fumble at the27-yard line, DeSales struckquicklywith a 73-yard run fromDylan Byrd, who had 142 yardsfor the game and more than2,000 for the season. That madeit 28-13 and DeSales increasedthe lead to 21on its drive after a12-play, 57-yard possession thattook up nearly half the third pe-riod.

The Thoroughbreds cameback in the fourthwith two longtouchdown drives. They went84 yards in 13 plays to make it34-19, the key play a 38-yardcatch by Donnelly. Gray fin-ished it with an 11-yard TDcatch.

Two possessions later, NCCwent 79 yards on seven plays,with Franzen completing ballsto four different receivers, in-cludinga27-yardstrike toGray.Donnelly drew a pass-interfer-ence penalty on the drive andscored on a 14-yard pass play.The extra-point made it 34-26with 1:27 to go in the game.

John Caudill attempted anonside kick which had a goodhigh hop that gave the Breds achance to recover, but the Coltsgot the ball andwere able to runout the clock.

“Getting in before the halfwould have been a huge mo-

mentum swing, and (then) get-ting the ball back in the secondhalf,” Franzen said. “That wascrucial.”

Jack Sutkamp unofficiallyhad11solo tackles and seven as-sists for the game, breakingNCC’s school record with 209.5for the season. He also had six

rushes for 25 yards.“There’s a lot of leadership

here and they’ll keep the tradi-tion going,” said Sutkamp, asenior. “It’s really hard to leavehere without a state champion-ship.”

Franzen ended up with 2,301yardsfor theseasonand27TDs,

ending in the top five in severalschool passing categories.Smith, who had 56 yards rush-ing, posted 1,010 for the year.

“Itwasafunseason,obvious-lymaking it to the state champi-onship and there is going to be alot toremember,especiallywiththese seniors,” Franzen said.

“I’ll never forget some of thesegames: Last gameof the season,a 21-point comeback (againstBeechwood), that’s obviouslyhuge, then last week doubleovertime (49-48 win over Som-erset).”

Dan Wagner, in his first sea-son as head coach after a longtenure as an assistant, is readyto take another shot at it nextyear.

“I couldn’t ask formore thantheygaveme,” the coach said ofhis players. “Wehad a good run.How many times have we beenon this field. It’s our goal to getback here again next year.”

BOWLINGGREEN—TheHighlands High Schoolfootball teamhaswona lotof football games withdepth, skill and the intimi-dation factor.

The Collins Titans nev-er gave in to the Blue-birds, fighting back tocameawaywithadramat-ic and historic 37-34 winover the Bluebirds Dec. 7in the Class 4A statechampionship game atWestern Kentucky.

Highlands finished theseason 13-2 and wasstopped short on the“Stairway to Seven,” itsseason-long slogan sup-porting the Bluebirds’chase for a seventh con-secutive state champion-ship. The Bluebirds hadtheir 45-game winningstreak against Kentuckyopponents snapped.

Saying he no longerhad the energy it took tobe head football coach atHighlands, Dale Muellerstepped down from theposition Dec. 9 after lead-ing theprogramto11Ken-tuckyHigh School Athlet-icAssociation state cham-pionships.

“I didn’t want this sea-son to be aboutmeand thewhole season to be the‘Dale Mueller FarewellTour’ story,”Mueller said.“These seniors only getone senior year and Iwanted it tobeabout themand this football team.”

The 59-year-old Muell-er, who compiled a 250-36record in 20 seasons atHighlands,which is his al-ma mater, and a 309-67record in 29 seasons over-all, said he made the deci-sion to step down a yearago, but told only his fam-ily and the administration

at Highlands.“I couldn’t be more

proud of them,” Muellersaid after the game.“They’rementhatyoucancount on. I just said tothem now, they’re guysthat their futurewivesaregoing to know that theycan count on. Their kidsare going to look up tothem. They’re sad theylost a high school footballgame, but in all realitythey embrace adversity.This isn’t the worst thingthat’s going to happen intheir lives. Right now, it’supsetting to them, but youhave to embrace adversi-ty and go on as men.”

Highlands was oneplay away from its 23rdoverall title but was beat-en on what will be one ofthe most-rememberedmoments in Kentuckystate finals history.

On fourth-and-eightfrom the Highlands 12,Collins junior BrowningBecherer. after severalseconds in the pocket,completed a touchdownpass to senior NathanSames. Becherer, thebackup, was only in thegame because seniorLawson Page lost his hel-met on the previous play.Page, a veteran starterwho has racked up im-pressive passing num-bers in his Collins career,had to sit out the crucialfourth-down play by ruleas a safety precaution.

“One guy’s out, thenextguyhas tobereadytocome in,” Mueller said.“You have to give theirteam credit. Their nextguy was ready to come inand make a play.”

Collins, in just itsfourth year of existence,

won its first football statetitle.

TheTDpasscamewithseven seconds to play,cappingawildsecondhalfinwhicheachteamscored27 points on four touch-downs.

Highlands took thelead with 2:33 to go on aone-yard run by seniorZachHarris,11playsafterCollins had made an eye-opening decision to go forit on fourth-and-5 from itsown 44. Highlands de-fended a Page pass anddrove for a score.

Aftereachteamscoredon its first drive, Collinsled 10-7 at halftime. High-lands scored on its firstdriveof thesecondhalf ona six-yard Harris run.

Collins took a 23-14lead on two successive 80-yard TD drives.

Highlandscamewithintwo points (23-21) on a 34-yard pass from DrewHouliston to Evan Allentwo minutes into thefourth quarter. Collins an-swered just 1:13 later tomake it nine points againat 30-21, but theBluebirdscame right back just 59seconds later on a 42-yardpass from Houliston toAlex Veneman.

The aftermath of thelosswastoughontheplay-ers, but Mueller tried tokeep it in perspective.

“I’m 59 years old, I’velost a lot of games, but tothe guys, it’s upsetting tothem,” he said. “It doesn’tmatter what has hap-pened before. It’s thisyear. It was such a great

football team, such agreat group of guys andthey wanted to win.”

Theshootoutgamefea-tured 938 yards total of-fense (480 forHighlands).

“You have to give (Col-lins) a lot of credit,”Mueller said. “They did agreat job getting somereally good players over

there on offense. Theywere playing their topguys on offense.”

Houliston threw for367 yards and two scores,ending with 4,027 passingyardsand50TDs.He’s theninth QB in state historyto throw for 4,000 yards,and the 11th to have 50TDs. Highlands’ 62 pass-

ingTDs for the season is aschool record.

Harris had 103 rushingyards and three scores,ending with 1,103 yardsand 23 scores for the sea-son.

A10 • CAMPBELL COMMUNITY RECORDER • DECEMBER 12, 2013

In theNov. 28 CommunityRe-corder, Ted Smith attacked Re-publican candidate Matt Bevinfor challenging U.S. Sen. MitchMcConnell. I foundSmith’s argu-ments bizarre.

Smith stated, “Based on teaparty House and Senate mem-bers’ recent behavior in Con-gress,Dr. Seuss looksgood.May-be Bevin is a Democrat mole.”

Does Smith not know that Dr.Seusswasananti-capitalist, anti-religion communist? Republicanand former presidential candi-date Rick Santorum wrote, “Dr.Seuss is a well-known liberal,communist author of children’sbooks, and his lessons have beenpolluting the minds of genera-tions of Americans with theirtalesofSneetchorgiesandLoraxtree-hugging.”

WhydoesSmithprefer acom-

munist over a freedom-lovingAmerican?

According toSmith, “Bevinlost my votewhen he an-nounced his op-position to Sen-ator MitchMcConnell.”Excuse me?Does Smith un-derstand thatBevin is run-ning against

McConnell? Smith must still be-lieve in the Republican Party’s11th Commandment, “Thou shaltnot speak ill of any fellowRepub-lican.”

In 1976, Reagan challengedsitting Republican PresidentGerald Ford. Reagan abandonedthis “commandment” after sev-

eral primaries and focused ontelling the truth about Ford. Hedecided truth trumpedblindpar-ty loyalty.

I wonder if Smith called Rea-gan a “Democrat mole” or “stu-pid” or accuse him of drivingprogressive “centrist and mod-eratevoters away?”Fordand theRINOs won the primary, but lostthe general election. Americanswere tortured with Jimmy Car-ter for four years. Reagan waslater successful, but wasted hisfirst four years cleaning up Car-ter’s and the DEMO-RINOmess.

Smith also stated, “Second,tea partiers have injected candi-dates into Republican primaries,defeated the Republicans, thenlost the general elections to theDemocrats.” Sowhy did Tea Par-ty candidates win the primary?They won because voters chose

freedom-loving principles overRINO progressive principles. Idon’t think Smith is upset withthe Tea Party asmuch as he’s up-setwith “stupid”voterswhovotefor freedom-loving candidates.Is it freedoms fault that voterselect marxist, socialist and com-munist candidates? Freedom isnot the villain here. DEMO-RI-NOs are.

Besides, it’s Americans dutyto engage in political debate. In1776, patriot John Jay fought forreconciliation with Great Brit-ain. He even retired from Con-gress rather than sign theDecla-ration of Independence. He laterrejoined the cause and wrote theFederalist Papers with JamesMadison and Alexander Hamil-tonurgingthepassageof theU.S.Constitution. Spirited politicaldebate based on principle is

good. Blind loyalty to a partygave us Bob Dole, John McCain,Mitt Romney, David Williams,Ritchie Farmer and MitchMcConnell.

Albert Einstein seemed to betalking about Senator McCon-nell’s 30-year political careerwhen he said, “We cannot solveour problems with the samethinkingwe usedwhenwe creat-ed them.” McConnell representsfewer freedoms, more taxes, in-crease in debt ceiling, amnesty,bailouts, and funding forObama-Care. Einstein knew McConnellcan’t solve our problems so whydo we?

The jury’s still out on Bevin.Let’s do our homework.

Was Reagan a Democrat in a teapot?

TomWurtzCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

In light of the extensive cov-erage in the Enquirer regard-ing the CVG Airport Board, I

felt itwas timeto provide myperspectiveon additionalboard repre-sentation thatis necessaryfor our com-munity’sgrowth.

Youmay beaware that all8,000 acres of

the Cincinnati/Northern Ken-tucky International Airport(CVG) are inBooneCounty, butyou might not know that theKenton County Airport Boardis the owner of the airport. Forthat reason,BooneCountydoesnot appoint even one of the vot-ing members of the AirportBoard. With all the issues sur-rounding CVG, I want to ad-dress some questions that areoften asked.

First, I want to make it per-fectly clear that Boone Countydeserves and needs more rep-resentation on the board and Iam an advocate for that to hap-pen. More than 50 years agowhen this airport was formed,BooneCounty did not choose topartner with Kenton Countybut things are very differenttoday. Currently Boone Countyis a strong and vibrant County

that many other communitiestry to emulate. We are a leaderlocally, regionally, and nation-ally. We have much to offerCVG and so much at stake.

The makeup of the CVGboard is determined by statestatute and can only bechanged by the state legisla-ture and the governor. Underthe current state law, KRS 183,the seven voting members areappointed by the Kenton Coun-ty judge-executive and one ofthese must be a Boone Countyresident. The Boone Countyjudge-executive appoints noneof thesevenvotingmembersoftheAirport Board. There are11advisory board members andtheBooneCounty judge-execu-tiveappointsoneof thesemem-bers. As I hope you agree, thisis not acceptable.

There are many issues sur-rounding CVG and in my limit-ed space I will deal with a cou-ple. Of course the recent con-troversy surrounding boardtravel and expenses is not ac-ceptable. A progressive andunified boardmust put in placethe necessary policies and pro-cedures to limit these abusesand guarantee results that arein keeping with our communi-ty’s expectations and ethicalstandards.

Next, Boone County’s rec-ord-setting economic develop-ment and job creation is fueled

byourproximity to the interna-tional airport. For our successto continue we must addresshighfares, someof themostex-pensive in the nation, and theneed for additional flights tokey cities. Most companies,new or existing, attribute CVGas a primary reason why theylocated or expanded here. Ourairport must continue to servethat role for our region whilebeing competitive with ourpeers.

And finally, with the coun-ty’s completion of Aero Park-way and Bushelman Boule-vard, new land is available andmore attractive for airport-re-lated industry and corporatecampuses. By partnering withour Tri-County Economic De-velopment Organization (Tri-ED), CVGcanadda componentof large acreage developmentsites, not provided by privatedevelopers, without adding tosprawl and congestion in otherparts of our community. Thesesites can provide new revenueto CVG and our communitywhile creating good payingjobs.

For these things to be ac-complished strong leadershipis required. Our resources andleadership here inBooneCoun-ty can help make this happen.

The holiday season is uponus, and our city must continuesupporting those in need nowand year-round. I am proud tolive in Cincinnati and havemuch gratitude towards thoseorganizations that devote theirtime, energy, and livelihood tohelp individuals and families inour city, especially the Frees-tore Foodbank.

My family, our team mem-bers, and our guests havegrownup in this community. Tolook at our neighborhoods – inour backyards, and see thestruggles families have to facein order to make ends meet, isdisconcerting. It is our respon-sibility tocometogether tohelpthose in need. We as a commu-nity canwork as a team to fighthunger.

I regularlyvisit our63pizze-rias, from our Boudinot Ave-nue location to PriceHill to An-derson Township to ForestPark, to meet with guests andteam members, to listen totheir stories about their fam-

ilies, their interests, their suc-cesses and sometimes, theirhardships. While many fam-ilieswhofrequentourpizzeriascan afford a hot meal, I haveheard of challenging timeswhen putting food on the tablewas a struggle for them, theirfamilies or friends.

During this holiday season,LaRosa’s is once again proud tosupport the Freestore Food-bank of Cincinnati to fight hun-ger right here in our own back-yard.

As I type, I am sitting inChampaign, Ill. having recent-ly welcomed our newest fam-ily member, my nephew, Sut-ton James Harmeyer. He wasborn, Tuesday, Dec. 2, 2013, atapproximately 3:35 p.m. Ourfamily rejoiced at the wonder-ful Christmas gift we had re-ceived.

Yet, just one short day laterI would get the news that mydearest friend had lost hermother after losing her fathera little more than a year ago.Myheartwas breaking for her,and the family. And, anotherdear friend had recently losther husband in the Rumpketruck accident just a fewweeks ago.

The timing of these eventsis what stands out in my mindmost. The Christmas season. Atime for joy, caroling, Christ-mas walks, baking cookies andshopping. None of which a

mother with a newborn, adaughter grieving the loss of a

parent, or awidow miss-ing her hus-band thisChristmasseason is like-ly to want todo.

I am grate-ful this timeofyear thatthere is a gift Ican sharewith

those I love that will alwaysprovide comfort, and a quietjoy that reminds us that re-gardless of what happens dur-ing the year, the peace of theholiday season can still be oursif we look in the right place.

Most will agree that experi-encing the true peace and joyof the holidays does not comein buying just the right Christ-masgift,orchestratingtheper-

fect party, or baking the per-fect cookie.

But what is it? The key totrue and lasting peace duringthis Christmas season is expe-riencing the presence of God.And it’s the presence of Godthatwill bringpeace to thenewmother (witha2-year-old in thehouse), the grieving daughter,and the lonely widow.

FocusonGod.Perfectpeacecan be found when we fix oureyes on Jesus. Focusing on ourstruggles and pain will onlymagnify our struggles andpain. FocusingonJesusmagni-fies Him and the peace that hecan and wants to provide.

Northern Kentucky resi-dents are heeding thecalling of Gene Record.

That’s when they head to La-tonia’s Promenade Palace onTuesday to square dance.

Kathy Lusher of Cold SpringandherhusbandAlareregulars.

“The three main things oflearning to square dance is lis-ten to thecaller, listen to thecall-er and listen to the caller,” Lush-er said.

Record, who lives in ColdSpring, said he has been callingdances for 47 years.

Promenade Palace at Ritte’sCorner in Latonia, 3630 Decour-seyAve., is one of the last placesin the Cincinnati area wheresquare dancers continue to reg-ularly meet, Record said. Thesquare dancing hall was openedin 1981.

Record calls to the dancersusing a microphone as hewatches from a raised stage.

“Here we go ... side couplesup to the middle and back. Turntwo. Cloverleaf. Slide through.TurnTwo.Carefullydoapartnertrade.”

Record said his style of call-ing is known asmodernwesternsquare dancing because thedancers don’t know ahead oftime what moves he will com-mand them toperform.Dancerswill often perform a dozen dif-ferent calls during the course ofa song. In traditional squaredancing, the caller tells dancerswhatsongtheywilldanceto,andtheyknowtheroutine for theen-tire song.

And the songs aren’t just allcountry – Michael Jackson’s“Beat It” is among the amongthe music played, he said.

Square dancing is not onlygood physical exercise, it’s amental exercise to strengthenthe mind at any age, Recordsaid.

“Mentally, you have to reallylisten,” he said. “Aswe get olderwe don’t use our brains like weshould.”

TheTuesdaynightdancesareforanadvancedgroup,butthereare other sessions for beginnerclasses and tandem squaredancing groups, he said.

“We’ll teachyouyour left footfrom your right foot when youcome here,” Record said.

Bob Thola of Union said hiswife Irene brought him tosquare dance lessons after theygot engaged. They have beenmarried for 28 years. Thola saidhe didn’t know how to squaredance at the the time, but nowthey go dancing two or threetimes a week because they likeit.

“It’s fun to be able to followwhat the caller is calling,” hesaid. “It’s good exercise. Wemadea lot of friendsdoing this.”

Repetition makes followingthe caller easier, Thola said.

“You see how fast he’s sayingall these things?” he said.“You’ve got to execute themright away without messingthem up.”

Don Maddux of CherryGrove, Ohio, said when dancersmessup theymust laugh insteadof saying they are sorry or riskmessing up further.

Square dancers are alwayslearning new moves, so itdoesn’t get old, Maddux said.

“I just started 40 years ago,

and I’m still having a blast,” hesaid.

Victor and Linda McAtee ofIndependence started squaredancing in 2007. Square dancingis a good way to communicatewith other people and be social,said Victor McAtee.

“We like the friendship, andwe like theexercise,”hesaid. “Itstimulates our mind.”

Few things beat thesweet juice of a freshpear dripping from yourfingers on a chilly fallday.

According to USAPears, pears are one ofthe world’s oldest culti-vated fruits. Early colo-nists introduced the firstpear trees to America’seastern settlements. To-day, commercial pearproduction is centered in

theWest andPacific North-west wheregrowing condi-tions are ideal.Washingtonleads our nationin pear produc-tion.

Pears are anexcellent sourceof dietary fiber.The six grams of fiber ina medium pear with the

skin provides 24percent of therecommendeddaily allowance.Pears are a goodsource of vitaminC. They also pro-vide potassium andabout 100 caloriesin a medium pear.The nutrition inpears helps with

heart health.Pears come in many

colors from green toyellow to red to rust.Pears ripen best off thetree. Pears are fully ma-ture when sold in thestore but are not neces-

sarily ripe. To fully ripena pear at home, leave itout at room temperature.Bartlett pears changecolor from green to yel-low as they ripen. Othervarieties including Anjou,Bosc, Comice, and Seckeldo not change color muchas they ripen. The bestway is to “check theneck.” Gently press nearthe stemwith yourthumb. When it gives togentle pressure it is ripe.If you wait until the pearis soft around the middleit is overripe.

Once pears are fullyripe they will usuallykeep for 3-5 days in therefrigerator. Pears willnot ripen properly in therefrigerator.

Bosc and Anjou arebest for poaching, bakingand grilling because oftheir dense flesh. Barlettand Comice are best eat-en out of hand or used insalads, salsas, and otheruncooked applications.Overripe pears can beused in smoothies orsauces.

The next time you areshopping for producetake a look at all of thevarieties of pears avail-able. Pick a few and ex-plore their wonderfulflavor and texture.

Each ga-tor measures roughly sixfeet in length, with thefemale Snowflake weigh-ing about 65 pounds andthe male Snowball weigh-ing 85 pounds. Snowflakeand Snowball are two ofless than100 knownwhite
