The pipes are on Berkshire Drive off Buckwheat Road, Donna Jay Drive off Ohio 28, Retswood Drive off Ohio 48 and Heatherstone Way off Wolfpen- Pleasant Hill Road, said Mike Mantel, the township’s service director. “It is one of the more visible projects we do during the sum- mer months,” he said. Mantel highlighted the pro- ject and its savings potential at the township’s regular trustee meeting June 18. “Pending any weather-relat- ed delays, our pipes should take three or four days each to com- plete,” he said. Mantel said National Gunite, a company based in Pennsylva- nia, should begin work in the middle of July. They have done similar projects in Pierce and Union townships, he said. “This is a 50-year repair,” Mantel said. “The company that does this has never had to go back to a pipe for repairs.” National Gunite began work- ing with Miami Township in 2008, said Lee Taylor, president of National Gunite. “This year’s designated work is very typical of the type of pro- jects we have completed in the past for the township,” Taylor said. Five pipes were repaired last year, Mantel said. Officials have budgeted about $100,000 a year for these projects since 2008, he said. “It’s been very successful,” said Larry Fronk, township ad- ministrator. “The program does what the company says it does.” Miami Twp. to repair deteriorated pipes See PIPES, Page A2 By Keith BieryGolick [email protected] Paxton’s golf outing for Can- cerFree Kids delivered their biggest donation ever in a cere- monial check presentation July 25.

Symmes seekszoning commissionmember

The Symmes Town-ship Board of Trustees isseeking to fill a positionon the Zoning Commis-sion due to an expiringterm. The appointment isfor a five-year period be-ginning in September.

Any resident of thetownship interested inapplying for this appoint-ment should download anapplication from theTownship’s website atsymmestownship.org.The application shouldthen be filled out and re-turned as soon as possi-ble.

BRIEFLY

The idea is to takefailed or deterioratedmetal pipes and use a con-crete mixture to makethem virtually new, Man-tel said. This eliminatesthe need to replace thewhole pipe, he said.

“We’ve saved over $3million (by participatingin the program),” Mantelsaid.

Fronk said money forthe pipe projects comefrom the road and bridgeproperty tax , motor vehi-cle license fee , gasolinetaxandmotorvehicleper-missive tax funds.

Officialshaverepairedmore than 20 pipes usingNational Gunite since2008, Mantel said.

“Assuming we con-tinue with current fund-ing levels, we could haveevery eligible pipe in thetownship completed infive to six years and nothave to go back to themfor repairs for severaldecades.”

nosed with leukemia,”Barb King said. “At thatpoint, 98 percent of hiscells were leukemia cells,only 2 percent werehealthy cells.”

He is the youngest offive King children. It hitthe whole family very

hard.Hismomsays itwasa long three-plus years ofchemotherapy treat-ments, blood infections,and lots of scary times.Thomas (his friends callhim T.J.) is cancer free,enjoysplayingsports–es-pecially volleyball – andtells everyone how can-cer research saved hislife.

Ellen Flannery, execu-tive director, CancerFreeKids, says success storieslike Thomas’ can’t happenwithout partners like Pax-ton’s.

“We like people toknow what they’re doingmatters. Hopefully, theygot that message,” Flan-nery said. “I understandThomas did a great jobspeaking beforehand.”

Thomas King clearlymade the cause personalfor the golfers. Paxton’shasmade the cause theirsfor eight years. EllenFlannery recognizes howextraordinary it is to havea partner sustain such anevent and continue toraise more money forthem each year.

“We get so much sup-port from Loveland busi-

nesses, but mostly fromPaxton’s. They’ve beenconsistent since day one,”she said.

It startedwithPaxton’sdonating 15 percent oftheir revenue on a day forCFK before the golf out-ings began. Since the golfoutings began eight yearsago, thecommitteehas fo-cused on making the do-nation bigger every year.After raising $13,000 lastyear, committee member,Mary Baugh set the goalat $20,000 for 2013. Done,and thensomewith23,475in 2013. They’re going for$30,000 next year.

The hometown flavorand keeping the money lo-cal istworeasonsFlannerygivesforthesustainedsuc-cesswithPaxton’sgolfout-ing.ShesaysPaxton’shasagreat volunteer base andthey do it all.

“That’s what theyknow how to do,” Flan-nery said. “Our goal is tofund research. We takeevery dollar we can andwe saygo cure cancer.Wedo that with help from alot of people. Third-partyevents are critical. Wecould never raise that

money on our own.”Paxton’s has always

been one of the top part-ners. TheNFLSuperBowlRaffle consistently raisesabout$15,000 to$18,000 forCFK yearly. Flannery ex-pectsPaxton’s tobe the topone this year after break-ing the $20,000 barrier.Their researchgrants usu-ally range from $20,000 to$50,000 each. The largestportion of their researchgrants – $235,000 of$285,000 awarded by CFKlast year – goes to Cincin-nati Children’s Hospital.This year they’ll offerRalph and the committeethe opportunity to name agrant.

“Themore they cando,themorewecando,”Flan-nery said. “What do yousay but thanks. To havethem dig in to support uswithasmuchworkastheyhave, it is extraordinary.We’re partners in this.”

MIAMI TWP. — Thunder,lightning and torrentialrainbrought flash floods toMiamiTownship July10.

The township was hitwith four inches of rain inthree hours, said MikeMantel, township servicedirector.

“It was a big mess,”saidJimWhitworth, town-ship fire chief.

A storm of that magni-tudehasa1-percentchanceof happening each year,said John McManus, ad-ministrator for the Cler-montCountysoilandwaterconservation district.

Township Administra-tor Larry Fronk com-mended the township’sstaff for their response tothe storm, saying they putin long hours after an al-ready longwork day.

“Job very well done,”Fronk said at the town-ship’s regularJuly16 trus-teemeeting.

While Fronk and otherofficials were pleasedwith the response, someresidents voiced their dis-pleasure with problemsthe storm highlighted.

“My driveway was ariver,”saidRichardChris-topher, a resident wholives on Sagebrush Court.“There was fecal matterin the basement.”

The sewage lift stationinhisbackyard faileddur-ing the storm, causingproblems, he said.

“When our operatorsresponded at the lift sta-tion, they found the liftstation was under water.The storm sewers hadbacked up and flooded thearea,” said LyleBloom, di-rector of utilities for theClermont County WaterResources Department.“The lift station is only in-tended to pump sanitary(sewage) from homes, it’snot designed to pumpstormwater.”

There is a 24-inchstormwater pipe inChris-topher’s subdivision thatfunnels into a 42-inch pipeand then back into a 24-inch pipe,Mantel said.

“That could be the cul-prit,” he said. “We’re limit-ed by what we can do ...(but)we’regoingtoworkasmuch as we can to makesure this doesn’t happenagain.”

Christopher said theneighborhood faced simi-lar flooding problems in2001 and 2005, calling it“an ongoing problem.”

In 2001, the lift stationlost power, but shortly af-ter officials put in an

emergency generator,Bloom said. The lift sta-tion didn’t lose power July10, he said.

“I’m asking the town-shiptoworkwiththecoun-ty to fix these issues,”Christopher said. “Thereneedstobemorethantalk,there needs to be a plan.”

Trustee Karl Schultzsaid when officials werenotified of the situationthey took immediate ac-tion.

Mantel said the town-ship is responsible forstorm water systems, butthe county is responsiblefor sanitary sewer sys-tems.

“We don’t own all as-pects of it, but we’re thefront line,” Schultz said.“Our job is to help youmove through the myriadof bureaucracy.”

The county proposed astorm water district in2007, but it was never ap-proved, said Joe Braun,township law director.

“Thatwouldregulateallthe problems you’re talk-ing about,” he said. “In2007, public hearings wereheld in Union and Miamitownships (but) smallercommunities opposed (thestormwater district).”

Similar storm waterdistricts, where residentsare taxed, are in place inHamilton and Butlercounties, Braun said.

“A storm water (dis-trict) would have its ownseparate funding sourceto address stormwater is-sues on private property,”Bloom said.

The county and town-

ship handle issues in thepublic right of way, butcannot do anything on pri-vate property - a stormwater district could takeover some of those re-sponsibilities, he said.

“We desperately needyour help,” said MarkPfister, who lives onRustler Court.

TrusteeKenTracy saidthe board was willing toback residents in writingto proper county officials.

“The county is aware ofthe problem,” Braun said.“We’ve been notifying asmany people aswe can.”

Bloom said the waterresources department is

taking steps to seal thesanitary sewer manholecovers to prevent stormwater from entering.

“In the future, we’regoing to evaluate the po-tential to eliminate the liftstation (in theTanglewoodsubdivision), whichwouldremove it from the areathat has experiencedflooding,” he said. “Byeliminating it, we wouldconnect that collectionsystem to an adjacent col-lection system, (but) wewant to make sure the ad-jacent collection systemwouldhaveenoughcapac-ity for the Tanglewood liftstation.”

CINCINNATI — Rarelyin sport does a team’s sea-son end in victory.

Any team of note typi-cally makes a tourna-ment,witheachgatheringwrapping up with onechampionship trophy.

In today’s competitiveenvironment, a runner-upfinish is nothing to beashamed of; particularlywhen it comes in a nation-al setting.

Such was the case fortheCincinnatiUnitedPre-mier Gold U17 boys whenthey fell short 1-0 in over-time to the West Coast FCof California in the U.S.Youth Soccer NationalChampionships on July28. On a day featuring de-fense, one ball crossingthe line determined gloryfor teams on oppositesides of the United Statesmeeting in the middle inOverland Park, Kan.

“The game was back-and-forth,” coach BobbyPuppione said. “Bothteams had chances to putsome goals in the back ofthe net anddidn’t convert.Each team also had a goalthat was called back.”

When time had ex-pired, the goose eggs onthe scoreboard called forovertime in OverlandPark.

“Theyscoreda littlebitof a fluke goal, but a goal

nonetheless,” Puppionesaid. “We were pushingforwardandcreatedquitea few chances during theovertime period. We justweren’t able to tie it up.”

The West Coast squadused two goalkeepers,while CUP Gold used Cin-cinnati Country Day’sWes Mink the wholematch. Puppione esti-mates his squad got off 10shots against the Califor-nians.

Tomake the champion-ship match, CUP Goldwon their pool play gamesagainst teams from Le-high Valley (Pennsylva-nia), Santa Clara (Califor-nia) and Waukesha (Wis-consin).

In addition tobeingNa-tional Finalists, Cincin-nati Country Day’s JakeScheper andMason’s JoshGrant were named to the“BestXI” for the event bycoaches.

Other members of U17squad were: Loveland’sGreg Bohn; Mason’s JackClark, SamConkright andCaleb Griffith; ClarkMontessori’s Joe Galla-gher; St. Xavier’s AustinHarrell; Summit CountryDay’s Christian Hay;CCD’s Dominic Isadore;Turpin’s Josh McDanieland Trevor Thompson;Milford’s Thomas Moore;and Hunter Stiger andGabe Welp of LakotaWest.

CUP Gold’s fruitful

season also featured asixth-straight StateCup, aNational League title, theDisney Showcase Cham-pionship, MidwestLeague title and the Re-gion II Championship.

“We’ve been to quite afew places and the teamhas had nothing but suc-cess,” Puppione said.“They just came up shorton this one.”

The coach now handsoff the crew to their re-spective high schools. Helooks forward to produc-tive prep seasons for all.

“All of these guys areleaders on their highschool teams,” Puppionesaid. “Jack Clark was theMVP for everyone lastyear at Mason. ChristianHay won a state title atSummit. GabeWelp at La-kota West and Josh GrantatMason are also leaders.Every single one of themis a standout.”

Puppione’s difficultjob is managing personal-ities and putting out thecompetitive club that’sexpected.

“What’s nice about thisteamis theyput theiregosaside and focus on theteamfirst,” he said. “Theyknow that no one player isno more important thanthe other on the team.We’ve definitely come to-gether as a family.”

The CUP Gold squadreconvenes in November.

“A lot depends onwhoI have come out for theteam,” Snell said. “I alsohave some players upfrom the JV and maybesome up from eighthgrade who could seeplaying time. We willplay to our strengths.

“Ihaveaverypositiveoutlook for the season.It’s really anybody’sgame.”

Especially in theMVC,

where Snell picked Sum-mit CountryDay andSev-en Hills as the teams tobeat in the league.

CCD opens the seasonAug. 20 at Mars HillAcademy and plays itsfirst homematch a weeklateragainstSt.Bernard.

Mount Notre DameIn Reading, the Cou-

gars snared anotherGGCL-Scarlet title in2012 by going 25-1 and10-0 in the league.MND’shad 15 straight winningseasons and Joe Burkehas been there for each,including the last five ashead coach.

After going unblem-ished until a Nov. 1 tour-nament loss to LakotaEast, Burke was namedGGCL-Scarlet Coach ofthe Year.

“The Cougars arehard working and moti-vatedtoexcelat thehigh-est level,” he said. “Thisteam will have a goodmixof leadership andex-perience, combined withenergy and determina-tion that shouldmake foran exciting year.”

MND returns threestarters in senior rightside hitter ChristineChandler, junior liberoMargo Wolf and sopho-more outside hitter Syd-ney Mukes. All are col-lege prospects andChan-dler was GGCL-Scarletsecond team as a junior.

Burke is also expect-ing valuable time fromseniormiddle hitter SaraPriest and junior setterJessica Towle.

“Welooktoreplacelastyear’s seniors with re-turning varsity playersand players moving upfrom an undefeated JVteam in 2012,”Burke said.

MND starts out at St.Henry on Aug. 20, then

the varsity returns homeagainst Chaminade-Juli-enne on Aug. 24.

A publication of

Anybody living near Cincin-nati knows about a town calledElmwood Place and the night-mare of it implementing speedcameras to catch drivers trav-eling over the speed limit.Some of you may have beencaught by the cameras. In fact,as the numbers indicate, youmight be in the minority if youweren’t.

In the first month afterbeing activated, an unbeliev-able 6,600 tickets were sent outat $105 apiece. In a 30-daymonth, that averages to morethan nine tickets every hour.

Fortunately, Elmwood Placeis an exception rather than the

rule in Ohio,but the exis-tence of redlight and speedcameras is anissue that de-serves seriousattention.

A bill re-cently passedby the OhioHouse would

outlaw these cameras in thestate. House Bill 69 prohibitsmunicipalities, counties, town-ships and the State HighwayPatrol from using photo-mon-itoring devices to determineviolations of red lights and

speed limits. The bill allowscameras to be used in 20 mphschool zones, but only duringtheir hours of operation andonly if a local law enforcementofficer is present.

The use of traffic camerasraises many concerns. For onething, it completely reversesthe procedure of our legalsystem that claims a person isinnocent until proven guilty.When an officer pulls someoneover, the driver at least has theopportunity to speak to a hu-man being on the spot. A red-light or speed camera simplyissues a ticket that a personeventually receives in the mail.

Second is the issue of civilliberties. Just because certaintechnology is available doesnot mean it should be used tomake it easier for the govern-ment to take money out ofpeople’s pockets.

Finally, there is conflictingevidence of the cameras’ effec-tiveness in keeping peoplesafe. Some studies say theyincrease public safety, othersclaim that they lead to morecrashes because people slamon their brakes suddenly toavoid being picked up by thecamera.

Promoting public safety isan important responsibility of

government, but I also believethat another important role ofgovernment is to preservefreedom. I do not believe put-ting sneaky cameras at in-tersections that snap picturesof people’s vehicles and licenseplates upholds that mission.

My husband and I relo-cated to this area 20 yearsago, and for 18 and a half ofthose years, I have workedfor Clermont Senior Services.I had no idea when I beganthat working here would be

one of themost satis-fying andfulfillingexperiencesof my life.

I oftenhear peoplecomplainabout theirjobs, butthere hasnever been a

day that I dreaded going towork at CSS. Having workthat you love is truly a gift. Iam honored to have played apart in promoting the ser-vices that CSS provides toseniors. It has been part ofmymission in life to supportthis cause.

But it seems there are notenough hours in the day to doeverything I want. I want tospend more time with myfamily and friends. I want totravel more, and stay homemore. I want to spend time inmy garden – lots of time. Iwant to volunteer and givesomething back to the com-munity.

So, after careful consider-ation, I have decided that nowis the time for me to retire,while healthy and active, andable to do what I want. Ithought about it for severalmonths, because this is not adecision you make quickly. Ihad to be sure, and I am. Aug.2 is my last day at work.

I am looking forward toretirement, yet I will miss somany things; like the laughterand camaraderie of co-work-ers who have become dearfriends. I will miss the chal-lenge and stimulation of ademanding job. I will espe-cially miss working with Cin-dy Gramke, executive direc-tor, who has been a closefriend, adviser, mentor andencourager for the entire 18

and a half years.I will certainly miss talk-

ing to seniors and hearingtheir stories. One of the firstseniors I visited was a frail,elderly lady. While we weretalking, I noticed a black andwhite photo of a smilingyoung woman dancing with ahandsome young man. Shesaid, “That’s me. I used to be areal person.” I have neverforgotten her comment. El-derly people must never feelthat they have no value orpurpose in life.

I want to thank the Com-munity Press and its editor,Theresa Herron, who hasbeen a pleasure to work with,and whom I’ve come to thinkof as a friend. Her keen senseof propriety, as well as hersense of humor, has beenmost helpful.

Since I became a directorin 1998, I have written nearly400 columns. Many wereinformational articles aboutdiseases, fitness, events andother senior issues. Somehave been personal. Duringthat time I shared the deathsof my parents and both of mybrothers, their illnesses andwarning signals, and the proc-ess of grieving. Sometimes Ijust wrote a feel good story,like when I shared the letterthat my father wrote to mymother while he was on anairplane headed to EnglandduringWorld War II.

Over the years, I receiveda number of calls from peopleresponding to something Iwrote. Your calls and com-ments have encouraged andinspired me. I cannot thankyou enough. To all of the read-ers I send my best wishes.Thank you for allowing me toshare information, as well asmy heart, with you. I haveloved every minute. Godbless you all.

It has always surprised methat voters would openly ad-here to a single party in a de-mocracy, declaring their votefor that party no matter what.

It is even more surprising ina Democracy where there arereally only two parties in pow-er. As an independent, I amconcerned about the efforts ofthe Republican Party to alien-ate as many Americans as theycan. I am concerned because aif they continue down the cur-rent path, we may soon haveonly one political party worthmentioning and that is not goodfor America.

During the last presidentialelection, the Republicanschose Mitt Romney. If they hadchosen the Mitt Romney thatwas governor of Massachu-setts he may have won. Sadly,he was a political Franken-stein, put together by the teaparty and other conservativefactions of the RepublicanParty. As a result, he cameacross as anti-immigrant, anti-gay, anti-poor, anti-workingclass...I could go on, but youget the picture. The problemwas that he did not reflect theaspirations nor the face ofmost Americans today.

Not many Americans Iknow want a state run on reli-gious grounds, although our

nation wasundoubtedlybroadly basedon Judeo-Christian prin-ciples. Mostcertainly don’twant the gov-ernment to tellthemwho theycan marry, nora government

that actively discriminatesagainst them if they marryoutside of that.

Most Americans I knowrecognize that this country isbuilt on the backs of immi-grants and always has been.Most Americans I knowwant afair shake when it comes totaxes and legislation and abhorthe privileges doled out to somebusinesses and those who canafford expensive lobbying firm-s.What irritates usmost is thefact that the burden of taxationis increasingly unfairly distrib-uted, penalizing those of us whocannot afford tomake legisla-tion in our favor.

None of the Americans Iknow want women relegated tosecond class citizens, routinelyearning less than men in thesame jobs, and most men Iknow don’t want the govern-ment passing legislation thatinterferes with women’s repro-

ductive rights. Leave womenalone and tackle the deficit!

On these points, there is aschizophrenic ideological gapon the right. On the one hand,conservatives claim to hateinvasive big government, butsupport the government defin-ing and enforcing rules onmarriage, reproductive rightsand other personal issues.

Conservative Republicansoften claim to have Christianvalues, but support the deathpenalty and guns (“Thou shaltnot kill” apparently comes withan asterisk beside it in someversions of the Bible). “Lovethy Neighbor” does not extendas far as Mexico, apparently.

The Republican Partymustsomehow reinvent itself if it isto survive. This does not meanmoral laxity. There is plenty ofroom for conservative values inthis country, and that is a goodthing. These valuesmust beconsistent and fair, however –not a hodge-podge of conserva-tive values twisted into goodold-fashioned discriminationagainst a series of targets. Tru-ly, that will weaken the conser-vativemovement fast – Amer-icans are good at recognizinghypocrisy when they see it.

July 31 questionShould school districts adopt a

policy to allow trained and qual-ified principals and other schoolofficials to carry loaded hand-guns in schools like the Edge-woodschooldistrict?Whyorwhynot?

“Absolutely yes! The policedo not prevent crime, as evi-dencedintheNewtown,CT,hor-ror. They show up to count thebodies and towrite reports. Oneor two properly trained andarmed school officials couldhave greatly reduced, if not to-tally prevented, the disaster atSandy Hook.”

in each building. We live in anever-growing deranged societyand new lawswon’t stop the vio-lence and bloodshed, just as theexisting laws do not. While wehavearmedguards inbanksandarmored cars to protect ourmoney, ourmost precious asset,our children, should be afford-ed the same protection.

MIAMI TWP. — ClermontCounty officials recently testedtheirresponsetoa large-scaledi-saster.

During an emergency drill,Miami Township police and firedepartments responded to therelease of hazardous materialsat Airgas USA on 160 GlendaleMilford Road.

County response, plans andprocedures were evaluated bythe Ohio Environmental Protec-tion Agency. Those evaluationswill be compiled into a correc-tive actionplan released in June,said Pam Broughton, ClermontCounty Emergency Manage-ment Agency director.

At least one prominent figurewho took part in the simulationdidn’t think there would need tobemajor changes.

“I don’t want to sound over-confident, but our response wasvery good,” said James Whit-worth, Miami Township’s firechief.

“The event did not bring ahigh level of complexity, but itwas reflective of reality. We cansee a wide variety of things,from a leak to an explosion – sothiswasanice,averageresponsethat we could see.”

Although the evaluation hasnot been released Whitworthsaid he didn’t hear anythingfrom evaluators or staff thatconcerned him.

“We did what’s called a hot-wash, which is an immediate af-ter-action meeting where wetake comments from peopleabout what went well and whatdidn’t,” he said.

“From a fire chief perspec-tive I don’t think I could havebeen more proud of the guys. Infact, I went to each station after-ward to tell them that.”

MiamiTownship’sfireandpo-lice departments were the coun-ty’s only police and fire depart-ments to participate.

But thesimulation,whichfea-turedapotentially contaminatedfacility and surrounding com-munity,made it important to usethe drill’s findings throughoutClermont County, Broughtonsaid.

“A hazardousmaterials prob-lem could happen anywhere,”she said.

Whileartificial inmanyways,the drill could have serious real-world implications if somethingsimilar ever happened, said JimBolen, an evaluator from theWarren County EmergencyManagement Agency.

“When patients are contami-nated you take the risk that thecontamination is going to be

passed off to anybody who isnear that patient,” Bolen said.“With contaminated patients ifyou don’t decontaminate themwell enough it contaminatesyourambulance, it contaminatesyour crew and can contaminatethe hospital and make peoplewho were miles away from theincident when it actually hap-pened get sick.”

The drill not only tested thecounty’s preparedness for anemergency situation, butshowed how vital communica-tion and cooperation are be-tween agencies, said StevenBai-ley, Miami Township policechief.

“Togetherwecanmakeatotalresponse,” Bailey said. “Sepa-rately we can’t do it.”

AttheAirgasfacility,commu-nication between township po-lice, fire and outside agenciessuch as the Greater CincinnatiHazardous Materials Unit waskey, Whitworth said.

That communication wastested even more because real-life emergencies don’t stop for adrill.

“We had to make a run whiletheguysweregoing to the (exer-cise) site,” Whitworth said. “Sowe were actually a little bit latebecause of that.”

The township’s personneltook part in the exercise fromabout 9 a.m. until noon, and dur-ing that time therewere two oth-er incidents that required a re-sponse.

“We contacted our neighbors,Loveland-Symmes, Goshen andMilford to provide assistance,”Whitworth said, “In fact, therewere two runs – one was analarmdropataseniorapartmentbuilding and the second was anemergencymedical run.”

TheMilford Community FireDepartmentandtheGoshenFireand EMS responded to a firealarm at 14 Easley Drive in Mi-ami Township.

Later, the Milford Communi-ty Fire Department made anemergencymedical run.

Help from Loveland-Symmes,GoshenandMilfordal-lowedMiamiTownship topartic-ipate in the emergency drill, butthat’s only a small part of it,Whitworth said.

“It’s essential, we couldn’t dowhat we do without help fromour neighbors and that’s themu-tual assistance part of it,” hesaid.

“When we need help they re-spond. Andwhen they need helpwe respond.”

I can tell what’s goingon, food wise, frommyreaders simply by therequests sent in.

This week zucchiniand cucumbers dom-inated. Apparently ev-erybody’s zucchini isproducing nonstop, just

like mine.I like

the factthat ourCommuni-ty Pressfamilywants tofind waysto use thissummerveggie.Most of the

requests were for zucchi-ni bread recipes. Zucchi-ni bread freezes well andis pretty easy to make.And the variations areendless, like the tworecipes I’m sharing to-day. Both are in my Reci-pe Hall of Fame.

Requests for cucum-ber recipes were slightlybehind the zucchini in-quiries. I always think ofmy Germanmother-in-law, Clara, when I makemy version of her mari-nated cucumbers withfresh dill frommy gar-den.

Classic marinatedcucumbers/akaGerman cucumberswith vinegar andsugar

Feel free to add slicedonions when addingdressing, like Clara did.

2 large or several smallcucumbers (1-1⁄2 pounds)sliced thin

1 tablespoon salt

Dressing: mix togeth-er1⁄2 cup vinegar - cider or clear(I like cider)

3 tablespoons sugar or totaste

Pepper to tasteGenerous palmful fresh dill,chopped (to taste)

Put cucumbers incolander and sprinklewith salt. Let sit 20 min-utes, stirring now andthen. Drain and pat dry.Pour dressing over. Stirand put in frig to chill acouple of hours or over-

night.

Chocolate zucchinibread/cake

It’s a cross between abread and a cake, so youdecide what you want tocall it. Try milk chocolatechips for a milder flavor.

1 -1⁄2 cups shredded packedzucchini

1 cup flour1⁄2 cup unsweetened cocoapowder, sifted

1 teaspoon baking soda1⁄4 teaspoon baking powder1⁄4 teaspoon salt1⁄2 to 3⁄4 teaspoon cinnamon1⁄4 teaspoon allspice1⁄2 cup canola oil1⁄2 cup sugar1⁄2 cup light brown sugar2 large eggs1 teaspoon vanilla3⁄4 cup semi-sweet chocolatechips

Preheat oven to 350.Spray 9 x 5 loaf pan. Setaside shredded zucchini.Whisk together flour,cocoa, baking soda, bak-ing powder, salt, cinna-mon, and allspice. Setaside. Beat oil, sugars,eggs, and vanilla untilwell blended and fold inzucchini. Add flour mix-ture, mixing just untilcombined. Fold in chips.Bake until toothpickinserted in center comesout clean, about 55 to 65minutes. Place on wirerack to cool 10 minutes,then remove and finishcooling.

Butterscotchzucchini bread

Don’t take it out of theoven too soon. I bakedone pan 50 minutes – itlooked great coming outof the oven, but it sunk inthe middle when it cooled– a sure indication ofunderbaking.

3 eggs1 cup oil2 teaspoons vanilla2 cups sugar2 cups grated zucchini(squeeze moisture outbefore measuring)

2 cups flour1 teaspoon baking soda1⁄4 teaspoon baking powder1 teaspoon salt1 to 2 teaspoons cinnamon1⁄2 teaspoon ginger1⁄2 teaspoon nutmeg1⁄2 cup rolled oats1 package (3.4-ounce size)instant butterscotchpuddingmix

1 cup nuts, raisins or otherdried fruit

Beat eggs, oil, vanillaand sugar together well.Add zucchini. Then mixthe flour and the rest ofthe dry ingredients to-gether and then add tothe egg mixture, blend-ing well. Pour into 2greased, floured, waxpaper lined pans. Bake 1hour at 350oF degrees oruntil toothpick insertedin center comes outclean.

Lemon frostingMix and spread on

bread after it cools:

2 cups confectioner’s sugar,sifted

2 tablespoons lemon juice4 tablespoons butter,softened

Check out my blog formore zucchini breadrecipes and how to freezezucchini recipes.

Readers want toknow: How do youfreeze zucchini?

Shredded: I don’t peelmine, though colleagueand professional bakerand canner Cheryl Bullisdoes. I don’t blanch butdo pack mine in a littlemore than 2 cup mea-sures, since when youthaw it, you’ll lose vol-ume as liquid drains out.

Slices: Cut into slices,1⁄4 to 1⁄2 inches thick.Blanch in boiling waterfor 3 minutes. You’ll wantthe water boiling andenough to cover the zuc-chini. You can blanchseveral batches in thesame water; just add

more water if necessary.Cool immediately afterblanching in ice water,drain very well, and packin freezer containers orfreezer baggies. (Onereader likes to lay theslices in a single layerand freeze hard, uncov-ered, and then pack intobaggies). Smoosh out allair to prevent freezerburn. Do with a strawand just suck out air orlay bag flat, smoosh outair with your hands, andfreeze. Frozen zucchinishould be thawed slight-ly, not all the way, beforeusing in cooked dishes.

SymmesTownship res-idents Susan and TomYoung, Blue Ash residentWilbur Cohen and formerMontgomery residentShirley Davies (posthu-mously) were honored bythe Greater CincinnatiPlanned Giving Councilwith Voices of GivingAward for their plannedgift to the Cancer SupportCommunity Greater Cin-cinnatiandNorthernKen-tucky. The 15th annualVoices of Giving AwardsEvent was presented byPNC and hosted by JohnLomax of LOCAL12 atCET.

“It is truly our greatesthonor to recognize such aspecial group of individ-uals for their purposefulgifts to ensure the longterm welfare of manynonprofits whose workstrengthens our familiesand neighborhoods,” saidLori Asmus, co-chair forthe event.

The Youngs’ journeywith the Cancer SupportCommunity is personal.Just prior to Tom’s elec-tion to the Community’sboard over 10 years ago,he was diagnosed withprostate cancer and treat-ed successfully. It was hisownstruggle to find infor-

mation on treatment op-tionsthat ledhimtotheor-ganization’s CincinnatiProstate Cancer Informa-tion Group, which he reg-ularly attends andmoder-ates.Thepowerful impactof that network led TomandSusan to join theCom-munity’s Lynn Stern(planned giving) Societyandcontribute agenerousbequest to the organiza-tion that gave them somuch.

Cohen was honored onbehalf of the Jewish Fed-eration of Cincinnati. Inaddition to his JewishFederation contributionsover the past 60 years, Co-hen has been the primaryfunder of many transfor-mative initiatives includ-ing establishing endow-ments for Cedar Village,Middletown RegionalHospital Women’s RiskAssessment Center, Abili-ties First, Cincinnati Mu-seumCenter,Adath IsraelCongregation, TempleBeth Shalom Congrega-tion and many others.

He has committed tomakingasubstantial lega-cy bequest to the JewishFederation’s EndowmentFund which will enablethe Federation to supportmany important pro-

grams that bring strengthto thousands each year.Cohen is a member of theAbraham Moss LegacySociety which honorsthose who have made asignificant planned gift tothe Federation and itspartner agencies.

One of the first TwinLakes residents on itssouth campus, Davies’caring demeanor was feltdeeply not only at TwinLakes but also at ChristHospital, where she vol-unteered for over 30

years. Davies was both aneducator and a lover ofmusic. Her bequestserves as the lead gift forTwin Lakes’ Auditorium,which will be named inher honor.

TheGreaterCincinnatiPlannedGiving Council isa professional associationfor people whose work in-cludes developing, mar-keting, and administeringcharitable planned giftsfor non-profit institutionsand a variety of other le-gal and financial settings.

Democratic gubernato-rial candidate Ed FitzGer-ald will be visiting BlueAsh at 11 a.m. Saturday,Aug. 10. This free eventwill be a meet-and-greet,and will be at 4280 Glen-dale-Milford Road, in theoffice of SmarTravel.

Bobbie Kalman, a lead-er ofOrganizing forAmer-ica 2012 Team Blue Ashand a key organizer of thisevent, said, “The commu-nity will have a unique op-portunity to meet Mr. Fitz-Gerald directly and learnabout his positions on is-suesofimportancetoOhio-

ans. It’s anhonor tohave Mr.FitzGeraldvisit us tohear ourconcernsabout eco-nomic, edu-cational

lifelong public servant.Trained at the FBI Acad-emy in Quantico, VA, hetook an oath to serve thepublic and put people first,a commitment that hasshaped his adult life. As an

FBIagent,hewasassignedto the Organized CrimeTask Force in Chicago,working to hold corruptpoliticians accountable.

Following his FBI ser-vice, FitzGerald returnedto Ohio, serving as an as-sistant county prosecutorand eventually mayor ofLakewood, a town innorthern Ohio. As mayor,he shrunk the size of gov-ernment and made itmore efficient, while stillbringing major invest-ments inpublic safetyandjob creation. Under hisleadership, Lakewood

was recognized as beingone of the best places inOhio to raise a family.

FitzGerald, an attor-ney, is Cuyahoga Countyexecutive, having beenelected by the people ofCuyahoga County to leadits newly created form ofcounty government. Inthis capacity, he has im-plemented some of Ohio’stoughest ethics laws andsignificantly reduced thesize of the government,while also making a downpayment on the future.

With the millions savedbyhisreforms,hemadein-vestments in job creation,expanded pre-school en-rollment, and is establish-ing the largest college sav-ings account program inthe United States to fostera culture of college atten-dance in Ohio.

The Aug. 10 event isopen to public. RSVP [email protected].
