Charlene Hinners remembers her firstlesson in white privilege.

It was 1950s Milford and Hinners, a Cau-casian, wanted a black playmate namedRose to go with her to a downtown soda shop.

“Since I was a baby, my mom and dad hadtaken me there,” Hinners said.

But Rose’s parents wouldn’t let her go.“You see, even if she had gone there to get

a soda, she wouldn’t have been served,” Hin-ners said she subsequently learned.

Decades later Hinners and about two doz-en people — black and white, men and wom-en – are members of “Milford Area Neigh-

bor to Neighbor,” agroup formed in 2002 toembrace different cul-tures and to speak out inlove against injustice.

Neighbor to Neigh-bor currently is focus-ing on increasing diver-sity among teachers inthe Milford ExemptedVillage School District.

“We are truly con-cerned about all themany racial issues, es-pecially concerning thelack of diversity in ourschool system hiringand have talked to our

superintendent and head of hiring prac-tices,” said Hinners, a Milford resident whohas served 20 years on Milford City Council.

The story of Milford Area Neighbor toNeighbor can be bookmarked by the deathsof Timothy Thomas in 2001 and Samuel Du-Bose in July.

After a white Cincinnati police officershot Thomas, an unarmed African-Ameri-can resident, The Enquirer helped form doz-ens of Neighbor to Neighbor communitygroups to promote harmony.

“(Some Milford residents) caught thespirit and about 30 people came to a meetingat city chambers and we started meetingonce a month,” Hinners said.

Now, just months after a white Univer-sity of Cincinnati policeman shot the un-armed DuBose, a black man, Milford AreaNeighbor to Neighbor is the only chapterleft standing.

“We’re not what you call a militantgroup,” said member Ed Alten of MiamiTownship. “We are people who want to makea positive difference in our community. Andwe’re looking for young people to join ourgroup.” .

Members of Milford Area Neighbor toNeighbor meet at 7 p.m. the fourth Mondayof every month at Christ CommunityChurch, 1005 Lila Ave. in the Milford Shop-ping Center.

But they also spend a lot of time in oneanother’s homes, which can be viewed as asign of social progress.

After all, member Karen McKitric of

Camp Dennison can remember her playgroup splitting along racial lines once shereached junior high in the 1960s. Mckitrichad a white friend whose sister would tellher parents if she found her sister playingwith Mckitric in a church yard in Camp Den-nison.

Members of Milford Area Neighbor toNeighbor say progress can be slow, and isnot always linear.

Neighbor to Neighbor member LorraineArtis of Pleasant Ridge felt like she was do-ing good work when she was hired to pro-mote diversity in the Milford Exempted Vil-lage Schools in 1995.

“The students really embraced me,” saidArtis, who said she believes black and whitechildren alike need to see black adults in po-sitions of authority.

“I can’t say I experienced any problems.And I loved them,” she said.

The grant ended in 2003.Neighbor to Neighbor member McKitric

also is active in the Milford Area Black Heri-tage Society, which works to do somethingmembers believe society does not: acknowl-edge the past and current contributions ofblack people in the Milford area.

During the last Black History Month, thegroup honored 38 young, “up and coming”professionals with ties to the local communi-ty.

“It seems to have been a well-kept secretthat blacks have thrived, owned propertyand businesses, worshipped and raised fam-ilies in this area since at least the 1800s,” saidMelda Fant, secretary of the Milford AreaBlack Heritage Society. “We want the storiesto be told.”

One way to measure how far our societystill has to go is to look at the number of un-armed black men killed at the hands of po-lice.

Hinners believes Ray Tensing, who wasfired from the UC police force and chargedwith murder for shooting DuBose, “wasn'ttrained properly in accosting an unarmedman in a routine minor traffic stop.”

“And I have discussed this with police-men I trust,” Hinners said.

Some members of Milford Area Neigh-bor to Neighbor wonder why anyone needsto be taught that police should not shoot anunarmed man over a minor traffic stop.

But there is unanimity among Neighborto Neighbor members in their desire to pro-mote understanding between the races.

Earlier this year, Milford Area Neighborto Neighbor sponsored community forumson issues such as growing up black in Mil-ford, white privilege and being an African-American educator in a white community.

Neighbor to Neighbor hosted an inter-faith prayer service after a white man nowcharged with hate crimes shot and killednine black people during a prayer meeting attheir church in Charleston, S.C. -- includingsenior pastor and state senator ClementaPinckney – in June.

Meanwhile, Hinners has decided that thisyear will be her last on Milford City Council,which in July updated and expanded its 24-year-old affirmative-action plan with thehelp of a firm that specializes in labor law.

The city’s plan focuses on hiring morewomen in addition to racial minorities.

“Updating the plan is the right thing to doand keeps us in compliance with all applica-ble federal and state requirements concern-ing nondiscrimination in hiring, promotionand retention,” said Susan Ellerhorst, whowas assistant to the Milford city manager.She just took the job of Williamsburg villageadministrator.

Milford Mayor Laurie How-land’s favorite thing aboutHometown Holidays, which thecity hosts every Thanksgivingweekend, is the shopping.

“Be it some of our antiquestores, Primitives and More,Gardenia Garden and HomeDécor (my favorite place toshop for my mother-in-law),Kirk & Company Jewelers orour newest store, Villa Sanctu-ary, shopping during Home-town Holidays is about enjoyingthe day,” Howland said.

“Now, if I could just get myhusband to let me spend moretime in Kirk's looking at dia-monds.”

“Despite Main Street, Mil-ford, being a significant thor-oughfare, it is important to haveevents like this to get cars topark and explore the wonderfulmix of shops and restaurantsthat downtown Milford has tooffer.

“The affirmative-action plan is ananalysis of the workforce and hiring sta-tistics for the city of Milford.”

That’s because Milford voluntarilydecided to track the city’s job applicants,hires, promotions, terminations andEqual Employment Opportunity Com-mission training and complaint programto see how racial minorities and womenfare in the city.

The affirmative-action plan calls forMilford to set annual hiring goals basedon a formula using the demographics ofClermont County.

Multiple federal labor- and equal op-portunity-related agencies say the coun-ty qualifies as a “reasonable recruitmentarea” that Milford can use to estimatethe number of qualified racial-minorityand female candidates available for allbut the city’s highest-level jobs.

Milford has 37 men, 15 women and noracial minorities on the payroll.

The city expects a couple of employ-ees to retire in the next year, Ellerhorstsaid.

Because Clermont County is over-whelmingly white, Milford has no offi-cial racial-minority goals for the firstyear of its new affirmative-action plan.

While the city will continue to useClermont County to set its goals, it alsowill continue its current practice ofspreading a wider net for job candidates.

Milford also has committed in its newaffirmative-action plan to try and findracial minorities and women to hire bymeans that include contacting racial-mi-nority groups, women’s organizations,technical schools, vocational programsand referral agencies.

City Police Chief Jamey Mills alreadyhas been advertising for new hires in apredominately African-American news-paper.

Like the city, the Milford ExemptedVillage School District is working to-ward diversity.

Two percent of its students are black.Two of its 459 teachers and lower-lev-

el administrators in the school districtare black and four others Asian.

There are no racial minorities on theboard of education or among top admin-istrators.

“When recruiting new teachersthrough job fairs each spring, our humanresources department has reached out tocandidates with diverse ethnic back-grounds,” Superintendent Robert Far-rell said.

Stephen Haynes, for-merly a partner withHaynes & Snyder, hasbeen named director ofthe Public Defender’s Of-fice for Clermont County.

Haynes, who hasworked on a part-time ba-sis with the Public De-fender’s Office since 1984,replaced R. Daniel Han-non, who retired in Octo-ber.

He supervises a staffof 17 assistant public de-fenders who handle a ca-seload of approximately8,000 cases a year.

The Public Defender’sOffice represents thosewho cannot afford to hirean attorney and arecharged with offensesthat could result in thembeing incarcerated, saidHaynes. Generally, theseare criminal offenses (in-cluding Operating a Vehi-cle While Impaired andother traffic charges thatcarry a potential jail or

prison sentence), juveniledelinquency, child sup-port contempt and ap-peals of those matters.

Haynes was selectedby the Clermont CountyPublic Defender Commis-sion, which is composedof five members appoint-ed by Clermont CountyCommon Pleas judges andCounty Commissioners.His position is full time.

“I strongly believe inthe right to counsel andprinciples established bythe U.S. Supreme Court inGideon v. Wainright, andthat without effective de-fense counsel our systemof justice does not work,resulting in injustices,”Haynes said. “I’ve been acriminal defense lawyermy entire practice andalso was a part-time assis-tant public defender andwant to ensure the officefulfills its mission to pro-vide a good defense forthose who can’t afford an

attorney. “ Haynes, who has prac-

ticed law for 31 years, re-ceived his law degreefrom Ohio State Univer-sity in 1983. He lives in Ba-tavia with his wife, TerrellSnyder, until recently hislaw partner. Their son,Campbell, recently grad-uated from Batavia HighSchool and is a freshmanin college.

PROVIDED

Stephen Haynes has been named director of the Public Defenders Office for Clermont County.

Clermont County Pub-lic Health surveyed thepublic on a blood-borne in-fectious disease programas a possible first step to-ward a syringe exchangeprogram.

If the communitywants the program, andit’s ultimately approvedby health officials, it alsowould involve educatingintravenous drug users,referring them to treat-ment and testing them forcommunicable diseases.

The survey concludedAug. 31.

“The opioid epidemic isimpacting Clermont Coun-ty and we want to learn asmuch as we can from com-munity members abouttheir thoughts on the is-sue, particularly theiropinions of syringe ex-change, as part of an ap-proach to reduce bloodborne infections,” said Ju-lianne Nesbit, health com-missioner for ClermontCounty Public Health.

Last year, heroin over-doses were the largest sin-gle cause of accidentaldeaths in Clermont Coun-ty, even fatal car crashes,Clermont County CoronerBrian Treon has said. Thecounty, which has experi-enced a 500 percent in-crease in heroin deathssince 2003, is known as oneof Ohio’s “hot spots” whenit comes to opiate abuse.

Between 2009 and 2012,Clermont County’s reportsof chronic Hepatitis Ccases rose 140 percent fora total of 320 cases in 2012alone. Intravenous druguse is suspected to be akey factor in that increase,Clermont County healthofficials have said.

“Ideally, we would loveit if this was a programthat was not needed, butunfortunately, that’s notthe case,” Nesbit said.

Infectious disease pre-vention programs often letpeople exchange used sy-ringes for new ones fromtrained staff to reduce thenumber of discarded sy-ringes carrying diseases

from being discarded inpublic places such asparks and prevent acci-dental needle sticks. Suchprograms also often offertreatment and testing forHepatitis C and HIV.

In Greater Cincinnati,the Cincinnati Needle Ex-change project operates inthe Mt. Auburn and North-side neighborhoods. InNorthern Kentucky, com-mittees of the NorthernKentucky District Boardof Health have discussedprotocols for syringe ex-change programs at its re-gional health centers, butofficials have emphasizedthat no decision will bemade about any possiblesyringe exchange pro-gram without the approvalof city and county officialsin the affected communi-ties.

There is no timetablefor implementing the pro-gram if the communitywants it, Nesbit said.

Besides gathering opin-ions from the general pub-lic, the issue would be dis-cussed with health depart-ment staff and others inthe community who have avested interest in the pro-ject before decidingwhether to go ahead withit. Also yet to be deter-mined would be the pro-gram’s location and how itwould be funded.

The complicated juxta-position of poverty andwealth is always height-ened during the holidayseason.

The pain of being with-out is more poignant. Thedesire to give and make adifference more immedi-ate. Groups and organiza-tions that year-roundstrive to provide food,clothes and other supportto families in need see allof these emotions play outthis time of year.

“The thing I appreciateevery year is the generos-ity of people,” Inter Par-ish Ministry’s ExecutiveDirector Lindsey Ein said.“The holidays just bringout the best.”

Perhaps most touchingare the little children whowant to share toys thatthey no longer use.

“You can see some ofthem trying to grasp thefact that some childrendon’t have toys,” she said.“You can just see theireyes getting wide. Theywant to help. They want todo something so otherboys and girls will haveChristmas joy. It just per-meates through their fam-ilies. It’s very heartwarm-ing for those of us who aretrying to give Christmasjoy to those who don’thave any otherwise.”

Unfortunately, need isalways going to be there,Ein said. Groups like In-terparish Ministry areworking hard to fill thatneed as best as possible.

“This year we’re facedwith more people whohave not ever necessarilyneeded help before,” shesaid. “Our term is the ‘newfaces of hunger.’ Theseare people who have lostjobs or are underem-ployed or just not able tomake ends meet.

“They might strugglethe rest of the year, butsomehow when you’refaced with the holidaysand the expectations ofthis time of year...it can bevery discouraging forfamilies, very discourag-ing for parents who want

to provide for their kidsand they just don’t havethe wherewithal.”

This time of year, thefocus is not only on gifts,but on food and festivemeals.

“And when you don’teven know what you canfeed your family the nextday, it’s hard to compre-hend how you’re going toput on the turkey dinner,or Christmas meal, orbake the cookies,” Einsaid. “The things the restof us are doing. Our tradi-tions.”

Hunger is an issuestatewide. In Septemberof this year, many areafood banks saw an influxof food thanks to the 2015Feed Ohio campaign.

“Hunger is an issuethat touches every cornerof Ohio,” Ohio First LadyKaren W. Kasich said in apress release. She and herhusband, Gov. John R.Kasich, encouraged allcitizens to participate inthis year’s Feed Ohio Vol-unteer challenge, in con-junction with the NationalDay of Service observedon Sept. 11.

Inter Parish Ministryhas been providing the ba-sic necessities of food andclothing to people in needfor 51 years. During thepast year IPM has servedmore than 4,500 familiesat the Choice Food andClothing pantries in New-town, Batavia and from its

mobile pantry. Other pro-gram services helping in-dividuals who live in east-ern Hamilton and Cler-mont Counties include aback-to-school programand holiday adopt-a-fam-ily program.

Going into the holidayseason, the needs/wish listfor Inter Parish Ministryincludes: $25 Kroger giftcards which are given tofamilies in the adopt-a-family program in orderto buy a turkey or ham fortheir holiday meal; freshproduce; winter coats; toi-letries/personal careitems, and cash donations.

The cash donations areespecially helpful, Einsaid. The money can beused to purchase theitems on the adopt-a-fam-ily wish lists. And withcash, Inter Parish Minis-try can purchase foodfrom the Freestore Food-bank at a greatly reducedprice.

Contributions can bemade directly through thewebsite at www.interpar-ish.org

It’s an odd thing, Einsaid, that there are somepeople who look at Christ-mas help as providing areally basic need. Theybelieve that needy fam-ilies should not be askingfor anything other thanbasic need items.

“That’s not the point,”she said. “This is the timewhen you provide joy to

people and provide themwith something they can-not get for themselves.We look on that as a veryvery important part of theholiday giving season. Notjust providing the needsbut something special,and that someone caredenough to get the item ontheir wish list.

“We’re not talkingabout TVs and stuff likethat. People ask for tow-els, lotions, candles,things like that that areluxuries to them becausethey don’t have thosethings.”

It should make peoplefeel good to know thatthey provided somethingspecial to a person in needthat made them feel hap-py and validated.

Batavia YWCAThe Batavia YWCA is

closing its 50-year-oldemergency food pantry atyear’s end.

Inter Parish Ministry,which operates food pan-tries in Batavia and New-town, will serve the YW-CA’s former clients begin-ning Monday, Jan. 4.

The agencies are mem-bers of the ClermontCounty Safety Net Alli-ance and are coordinatinga transition designed toresult in virtually uninter-rupted services for theformer YWCA clients.

“While the YWCA Ba-tavia location served over5,000 individuals in 2014,they recognize that in theface of continued growingemergency food needs inthe area, they no longerhave the ability to deliverservices effectively intheir location,” said Nan-cy Spivey, vice presidentof development for YW-CA of Greater Cincinnati.

“Instead, the YWCAwill continue to focustheir safety net efforts ontheir emergency shelterand housing needs of sur-vivors of domestic vio-lence and their children.”

Inter Parish Ministryprovides emergency foodassistance to residents ofClermont and easternHamilton counties.

» Its Batavia location isat Batavia First Presby-terian Church, 277 NorthSt.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 2p.m. Tuesday and Satur-day.

» Its Newtown locationis at 3509 Debolt Road andalso has clothing avail-able.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 2p.m. Monday through Fri-day and 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Monday.People may visit either

pantry location once ev-ery three months.

Call 561-3932 to regis-ter for monthly mobilepantry service, which willbe available after Friday,Jan. 15.

“We are stepping out infaith to extend a hand ofwelcome to the many newYWCA clients that willvisit IPM pantries,” saidEin, the executive direc-tor of Inter Parish Minis-try.

“As with any change,there will be a need forflexibility, open commu-nication and patience.

“We will continue tocount on the generosity ofour community partners,volunteers and donors sothat we can provide themost effective emergen-cy food assistance tothose in need,” Ein said.

Milford MiamiMinistry

So far this year, Mil-ford Miami Ministry’sfood pantry has servedabout 150 families permonth - the same numberit had served through No-vember of 2014.

“But since we startedtracking these numbers in2010, we have seen asteady increase in thenumber of families weserve from year to year,”said Steve Reis, opera-tions manager for MilfordMiami Ministry, whichhas since 1996 providedfood and financial assis-tance to people in the Mil-ford and Miami Townshiparea.

“We can only assumethat the tough economyhas played a major role inthis increase.

“People can come tothe pantry once every 30days for assistance, butonly about 20 percent ofour guests come backwithin those 30 days,” Re-is said.

“The vast majority arepeople that just need anoccasional boost to helpget by.”

Reis said about 13 per-cent of the people MilfordMiami Ministry servesare first-time visitors toits pantry at 844 stateRoute 131.

For Thanksgiving, Mil-ford Miami Ministry pro-vides all that a familyneeds to prepare a tradi-tional dinner: a turkeywith all the trimmings.

For Christmas, it pro-vides a ham with all thetrimmings, as well as giftsfor children under the age

Meeting young people striving for excellencein the food world just makes me so proud of my

profession. Lilkeisha Smith is astellar example. A Midwest Culi-nary student, she told me the tradi-tions of Thanksgiving make it herall time favorite holiday.

“It’s the joining of family thatmakes me excited” she said. Lil-keisha prepares an elaborate feastwith fresh ingredients and, as shetold me “tons of love.” Her cran-berry relish is a given. She recom-mends making it days ahead.

Rita Nader Heikenfeld is anherbalist, educator, Jungle Jim’s

Eastgate culinary professional and author. Findher blog at Abouteating.com. Email her [email protected] with “Rita’skitchen” in the subject line.

Lilkeisha’s ultimate orangecranberry relish

12 oz. cranberries1 cup sugar1 large orange 1/4 cup Triple Sec liqueur2 tablespoons orange juice.

Rinse and drain cranberries. Zest orange andthen section orange removing leaving flesh inlittle half-moons. Combine cranberries, sugar, zestand orange sections in bowl, stir, and let sit 15minutes. Place items into food processor alongwith orange juice & half the liqueur. Pulse to chopand blend. Slowly add remainder of liqueur andcontinue to pulse to desired consistency. Youwant to see bits of cranberry but not hugechunks. Refrigerate a minimum of two hours orup to 3 days.

Fresh carrot ginger soup

Granddaughter Eva dug the last of the carrots from the gardenand she and her sister, Emerson, put them, along with a potpourri ofveggies and herbs, into their radio flyer wagon and wheeled it to meby the kitchen door. A Thanksgiving bounty! I found enough carrots inthe wagon to make this light and lovely soup. The recipe comes fromKaren Gibson. Her blog Soupaddict.com is a hilarious read with seri-ously good recipes. A nice first course for Thanksgiving. Can be made 2days ahead. Just don’t add milk until you reheat.

Olive oil to film pan1 cup onion, diced 1/2 cup celery, diced1 tablespoon minced ginger2 cloves garlic, minced2 pounds carrots (measured without greens), roughly chopped4 cups stock, chicken or vegetable1/3 cup canned coconut milk or creamSalt and freshly ground black pepperSour cream and chopped cilantro or parsley for garnish

Add the onions, celery and a pinch of salt to pot, and cook onlow until soft. Add ginger, garlic, carrots, and another pinch of salt.Cook for 5 minutes, or until carrots start to take on golden edges.

Pour in stock, and increase heat to medium-high to bring to lightboil. Reduce heat to medium, and cover partially. Simmer for 20 min-utes, or until carrots are tender and smash readily against the side ofpot. Turn heat off. Use an immersion blender to create a smooth pureeright in pot (or blender, working in batches). Taste, and add salt andpepper as desired. Stir in coconut milk and serve with garnishes.

Not your ordinary make ahead mashed potatoes

Different from other do ahead mashed potato recipes I’ve sharedsince there’s no sour cream here. Tastes like fresh mashed.

Peel and cut potatoes into chunks. Put in pan with cold water tocover. Bring to boil and cook until done. You’ll know when you poke afork into them and it comes out easily.Drain, put back into dry pot and mashover low heat.

Turn off stove and add butter,cream cheese, 1/2 cup Half & Half andmash, adding more half & half if need-ed. Season. Spray a baking dish and putpotatoes in. Dot all over with butter.Cover and store in frig up to 3 days.

Reheat in slow cooker:Spray slow cooker, stir potatoes to

mix in butter and reheat on low 2-3hours. You may have to add a bit of half &half.

Reheat in oven:Take out of fridge about 3 hours before serving. Bake in a 350-375

degree oven, lightly tented, until hot throughout, about 30 minutes orso.

Reheat in microwave:Reheat on medium, stirring every few minutes, until hot through-

out. You may have to add a bit of half & half.

Nov. 11 questionWhat results from the Nov. 3

election most surprised you?What, if anything, do the resultsmean for 2016?

“The overwhelming defeatof the marijuana issue, pleasedme a great deal. I had expectedthe ‘medical’ false plea woulddo better. Colorado’s rapidgrowth in auto accidents andincreasing concern over med-ical problems associated withdrug addiction seem to havegotten more attention than Ithought they had. Certainly thegovernor’s race in Kentuckyportends additional conserva-tive reaction by the voters. Arecent political cartoon depict-ed the pendulum swingingback to the right after years ofunsuccessful socialist pro-grams. John Kasich provesthat ‘socialist’ ideas don’t al-ways come with a ‘D’ on theballot. I still have great con-cern that continued ignoring oflaws and societal breakdowncould lead to that ‘worst of allchoices’ we see in Europe now– anarchy.”

D.B.

“While not really a surprise,I was very interested in the re-sults of the Issue 3 vote. It lostby a landslide, however I amguessing it may have passed ifthe backers had not insisted oncreating a monopoly for manu-facture and distribution of theleafy lethargy inducing prod-uct. There are more reasonsout there to approve legaliza-tion than disapprove it, butsentient Americans are inher-ently opposed to monopolies ofany kind. I wish our current‘leaders’ would understandthat better before allowing therecent mega-mergers of theairlines, oil companies and ca-ble providers. Those things we

were not allowed to vote for oragainst, and that is wrong. I ambetting that we will vote againon marijuana legalization andif they craft it properly, the re-sults will be vastly different.”

M.J.F.

“I was mildly surprised Is-

sue 3 on legalizing retail mari-juana was defeated. The pas-sage of this issue was conflict-ed by Issue 2 for disallowingthe marijuana monopolies. Mo-nopolies were voted down also.There should have been an at-tempt to look at medical mari-juana only, as a first step withno monopolies. That is whatmost other states who allow ithave done. Ohio got greedy onboth ideas (retail and monopo-ly) and lost. I suspect there willbe a second attempt along thelines suggested here. Like Ca-sinos look for neighboringstates to pass these issues firstand reap the tax revenues fromOhioans. Go Figure!”

Bundles of grass decorate each table at the pro-Issue 3 party in ColumbusNov. 3.

Everyday we see in theheadlines of newspapers,online sites and TV about thegrowing drug problems in ourcounty.

So while the headlines areabout the ravages of heroinand the ballot issues aboutlegalizing marijuana, youmay have missed a very im-portant event that has hap-pened in Clermont Countythis past month. The Coalitionfor a Drug-Free ClermontCounty which is housed atClermont Recovery Center, adivision of Greater CincinnatiBehavioral Health Inc. re-ceived a Drug Free Commu-nities grant. This five-year,$125,000 per year matchinggrant will go far in helpingClermont County better pro-vide primary preventionservices to our youth 18 andunder.

A little history to explainhow we were able to get thisimportant federal funding.Since 1996, Clermont Countyhas had a coalition of peopleworking for the purposes ofhelping to make our countydrug free. The activities havefocused mainly on youth 18and under and includedevents like After Prom, RedRibbon Week and ParentsWho Host Lose the Most aswell as some youth leader-ship.

In 2011, theClermontCounty Men-tal Health andRecoveryBoard re-ceived a grantfrom the OhioDepartmentof MentalHealth andAddictionServices to

help combat a growing prob-lem with prescription druguse in the age group 18- to25-year-olds. Out of that proc-ess the Coalition for a DrugFree Clermont County hasbeen able to develop the in-frastructure in data, county-wide engagement and strate-gic planning to be in a posi-tion to apply for the DrugFree Communities Grant.

This funding will help tobuild better prevention edu-cation for our youth inschools, educate the commu-nity about the safe disposal ofprescription medications,continue the efforts to keepyouth 18 and under awayfrom the early use of alcohol,tobacco and marijuana andother drugs. In communitiesacross the United States thathave participated in the DrugFree Communities funding,rates of youth substance usehas decreased since the pro-

gram was created in 1997.Nationally, there are morethan 2,000 community coali-tions that support more than4.4 million middle schoolstudents, 6.3 million highschool students and repre-senting 36 percent of all Unit-ed States youth (sources:SAMHSA NSDUH-2013 Mon-itoring the Future 2012, 2012DFC National EvaluationReport YRBS 2013).

The Coalition for a Drug-Free Clermont County be-lieves in one overarchingprinciple that local problemsneed local solutions. ClermontCounty knows best whatworks in our communitiesand this funding allows us todo the drug-free activitiesand education/prevention thatcan impact the youth of thiscounty.

The Coalition is alwayslooking for more people to getinvolved. Meetings are thesecond Tuesday to the month,4 p.m. to 5 p.m., at the Cler-mont County Mental Healthand Recovery Board Offices.

For more information onhow you, your school district,your children can get in-volved please contact MaryWolff at 735-8143 or [email protected].

Clermont County receivesDrug Free Communities grant

Every year on the thirdThursday of November, smok-ers across the nation take partin the American Cancer SocietyGreat American Smokeout.

They may use the date tomake a plan to quit, or plan inadvance and then quit smokingthat day. The event challengespeople to stop using tobaccoand helps people know aboutthe many tools they can use toquit and stay quit.

The idea for the GreatAmerican Smokeout grew froma 1970 event in Randolph, Mas-sachusetts, at which a highschool guidance counselorasked people to give up ciga-rettes for a day and donate themoney they would have spenton cigarettes to a high schoolscholarship fund. Then in 1974,Lynn R. Smith, editor of theMonticello Times in Minnesota,spearheaded the state’s firstD-Day, or Don’t Smoke Day.

The idea caught on, and onNov. 18, 1976, the CaliforniaDivision of the American Can-cer Society got nearly 1 millionsmokers to quit for the day.That California event markedthe first Great American Smo-keout; the Society took theprogram nationwide in 1977.Since then, there have beendramatic changes in the waysociety views tobacco advertis-ing and tobacco use. Manypublic places and work areasare now smoke-free - this pro-tects non-smokers and supportssmokers who want to quit.

Research shows that smok-ers are most successful in kick-ing the habit when they havesupport, such as: telephonesmoking-cessation hotlines,stop-smoking groups, onlinequit groups, counseling, nico-tine replacement products,prescription medicine to lessencravings, guide books, andencouragement and supportfrom friends and family mem-bers.

Using two or more of thesemeasures to quit smokingworks better than using any

one of themalone. Forexample, somepeople use aprescriptionmedicine alongwith nicotinereplacement.Other peoplemay use asmany as threeor four of themethods previ-

ously listed. For free tobaccocessation resources in Ohio callthe Ohio tobacco quit line at1-800-Quit-Now (784-8669), visitwww.cancer.org to learn moreabout quitting smoking, im-proving your health, or gettinginvolved with the Great Amer-ican Smokeout in your commu-nity, or you can visit nicotine-anonymous.org for those want-ing help to live a nicotine- freelife.

MIAMI TWP. – Milford’steam enters the season chockfull of experience.

The Eagles feature five sen-iors and seven juniors. CoachKristi McKenney said it’s thefirst time she’s had a team with-out an underclassmen, and add-ed the group is hungry for vic-tory.

“They want to win,” she said.“They’ve shown it in practicesand scrimmages. Now, I’m justhoping they carry that attitudeinto games.”

Contributions on the offen-sive and defensive ends couldcome from a handful of players.

In terms of scoring, thecoach said it would probablycome from Taylor Foster, KellyNoll and Hannah Woody.

Tori Gilman and HannahWaltz will handle point-guardduties, play hard-nosed defenseand slash to the basket.

“With this team, we feel wecan sub anyone in and not losemomentum,” the coach said.“We’re going to play a lot of kidsto stay fresh for Eastern Cincin-nati Conference play. It’s atough league to play in. I don’treally see a dominant team thisyear but everyone is going tomake you work for the win.”

Coach Liz Benjamin is look-ing for more from her Cler-mont Northeastern Rockets inher second season.

“I’m hoping for big thingsthis year,” she said last week. “Atop-three finish in the leagueand a record above .500 wouldbe a great stepping stone forthis team.”

Players helping the Rocketsreach that goal are AndreaJohnson, Lexie Walker and Jo-sie Seibert.

Johnson is a three-year start-er and should help Walker, anall-SBAAC performer, in thelow post.

Lauren Schnegelsberger, anew addition to the team, couldalso contribute.

“This year, we want to win allour close games and be compet-

itive in the SBAAC,” Benjaminsaid.

Goshen will be without Kay-la Miller, Courtney Turner, Brit-tany Clark and Haley Halcomb.All four were seniors last sea-son.

The Warriors start the sea-son at home against Ross Nov.20. No other information wasavailable by deadline.

McNicholas will have to re-place its best player from lastseason.

The Rockets return fourstarters who can help fill thevoid left by Payton Ramey’sgraduation. They could also getBrynna Maxey back and fullyhealthy.

Maxey was dealing with ashoulder injury and coachGregg Flammer didn’t knowshe was playing this year untilshe showed up at the first prac-tice.

Since then, she’s been a sur-prise contributor. Other playerswho will contribute to the causeare Maria Ciampone, HannahBrune, Jaclyn Geygan and Ka-tey Byrne.

Ciampone, Geygan andByrne were all-GCL Coed per-formers last year.

“We have six players whohave played a lot of varsity min-utes,” Flammer said. “Afterthat, it’s kind of up-in-the-air. Ifthey develop like I’m hopingthey will, we’ll be in good shape.Winning the league is our No. 1goal, as always. After that, mak-ing it past the district finalwould be nice, too.”

The Warriors will need togenerate offense as Miller, Tur-ner and Clark were the team’stop-three leading scorers.

Taylor Foster, Kelly Nolland Hannah Woody, Milford– In terms of scoring, coach KristiMcKenney said this trio is wherethe bulk of it will come from.

Lexie Walker , CNE – Was anall-SBAAC performer last year.

NEWTOWN – The varsityfootball team at Miami ValleyChristian Academy is redefin-ing winning.

Although they have experi-enced an incredible season andnow post-season action, theMVCA team is showing us whatimpact football can have onplayers lives.

Their recent game againstHillcrest Academy just hap-pened to be the same eveningthe new movie Woodlawn hittheaters. The movie conveys acompelling message of recon-ciliation that fosters the missionof Hillcrest Academy in theirendeavor to restore the lives ofyoung men.

The MVCA players arrangeda pregame movie/dinner event

for their rival team. They took the guys from

Hillcrest to see the movie inhopes of making their upcom-ing game one that these playerswould never forget. Burgersand fries at Red Robin also pro-vided one-on-one interactionand a chance for off the fieldfriendship.

MVCA cultivates a culture ofservant leadership. Athletic di-rector/football coach, RobertVilardo, explains that, “thistype of sportsmanship pro-motes and encourages the res-toration of the player as a wholeperson and ultimately increasesself-value. Indelible wins arethose that develop good charac-ter in athletes. That’s what weare playing for and MVCA ath-letes are all about making a dif-ference.”

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

Howdy folks,I went to a craft show

last Saturday at Russell-ville in the RamblerSchool. What a day!There was a nice bunchof folks there and thesales were good. Therewere quite a number offolks that came to sayhello that read my arti-cle, most of them askedabout Chester. When mygranddaughter broughtChester to us as a kittenshe asked, “what are yougoing to name him?” Wesaid Chester. She said,“Chester you will be afamous cat.” That wasthe first thing lots offolks asked me - how isChester?

I usually have a yo-gurt and bottle of Boostfor breakfast. I feedChester first then makecoffee. He watches mewhen I go to the refriger-

ator andget theyogurt andBoost. Hewill leavehis foodand get onthe arm ofmy chairso he canlick the topof the yo-

gurt lid. After I eat all ofthe yogurt he likes to lickthe side. The other morn-ing I cut the container inhalf so he could lick thebottom. He put his headdown to his eyes so hecould get all the yogurt Ileft. When I drink theBoost, he waits till I poura little in the lid so he canhave some. After it is allgone I put the cap on theempty bottle and saythat’s all. He jumps downto go finish his breakfast.Ruth Ann would really

enjoy this cat and thedifferent things he does.He likes to have his headlaying in my hand andwhen we are in bed hewants to be touching me.

The craft show wasone of the best shows Ihave ever had. The ladiesthat put the show togeth-er sure do a wonderfuljob. The food was greatand the service was spe-cial. The help I got therewas super. The ladies anda young feller helped meget set up for the show. Itis so special to see onehelping the other, gettheir items in and readyfor the show. ThanksMary!

The Goshen LionsClub will have their pan-cake breakfast Nov. 21and then their craft show.That is a great event thatRuth Ann and I went toand really enjoyed. The

Goshen Lions Club do somuch for the community.So whet your appetite fora good pancake breakfastand go to the school onGoshen Road the Marr/Cook School. The time Ithink is 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.That will be the place toget Christmas gifts thatare made by great craf-ters and the folks that getthe items can look backat where they weremade.

The U.S. Grant Schoolwill be having a Christ-mas dinner for the Be-thel Lions Dec. 14 in theTea Room. This will be adinner we have each yearat the school. The Grangewill again this year fur-nish a Thanksgiving mealfor a family in the newRichmond School Dis-trict. The Bethel LionsClub will also furnish ameal for a family at

Thanksgiving.I was talking to Mike

at the Boars Head BaitShop in Afton. He saidthere were several nicebuck deer brought in toshow him. There seemsto be a bunch of deerharvested so far. Theyouth hunt with gun isNov. 21-22. The gun hunt-ing for other folks is Nov.30 - Dec. 6. Stop and seeMike about the posses-sion limit. He said Grand-ma had got a better pairof hearing aids and isdoing much better. She isa wonderful lady and likeme she is getting up inyears. I won’t tell how oldshe is but like me she hasheard it thunder foryears, glad you are betterGrandma.

I see my Thanksgivingcactus is starting tobloom. It is amazing howthe plants are one for

Thanksgiving the otherone for Christmas. Thegood Lord sure knewwhat he was doing whenhe made this world andeverything in it, don’t youthink - amen.

I made my usual tripto talk to the seniors atthe Senior Service Centertoday. They sure enjoyedhearing about the oldtimes.

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

God bless all...Morelater

Jacob Moore of Go-shen High School andMorgan Long of AmeliaHigh School both re-ceived scholarships fromthe Kyle Adkins Memori-al Scholarship Fund. Thefund is made possiblethrough the efforts of J. B.Covert Masonic Lodge.

The officers and mem-bers of J. B. Covert Ma-sonic Lodge were sad-dened in July 2014 withthe passing of their mem-ber and friend Kyle Ad-kins. He was master of J.B. Covert Lodge in 2008and served as trustee andchaplain as a past master.

Adkins’s love of lifewas evident in everythinghe did and he alwaysbrought a spirit of levityto everything he was in-volved with.

Adkins’s vocation wasthat of being a math teach-er and assistant band di-rector, most recently atGoshen High School, al-though he did enjoy doingthe same at his alma ma-ter, Amelia High School,

for several years and atGlen Este High School.His avocations includedworking as a deejay forweddings and proms,working on cars or any-thing else with an engine,and shooting sports.

Adkins brought to Ma-sonry his passion for help-ing others and his love ofthe rituals and lessonsfound within Masonry’smany teachings.

It is only fitting that J.B. Covert Lodge memori-alizes this brother with anongoing commitment tohelp students at Goshen,Amelia, and Glen Estehigh schools. The KyleAdkins Memorial Schol-arship will be made avail-able annually to a deserv-ing band member of thesenior class. The Masonsare working on futurefunding and have startedan online campaign atwww.gofundme.com/ky-leadkins for further infor-mation about the lodgeand the scholarship atwww.jbcovertlodge.com.
