Mt. Washington — Pumpkinswill soon fill the air in Mt. Wash-ington.

The Mt. Washington Pump-kin Chuck will be noon to 5 p.m.Saturday, Nov. 5, at StanberyPark on 2221 Oxford Ave.

Last month Scott Kelley, co-founder and organizer of thePumpkin Chuck, had expressedconcerns about park fees asso-ciated with the event. He saidthe cost was expected to befrom $1,000 to $1,500 dependingon the number of vendors.

Kelley said Cincinnati Parksofficials waived a portion of thefees. It will now cost about $325.

“It was a really good gestureand a huge savings,” he said.“They were very supportive ofthe event.”

This will be the sixth year forthe Pumpkin Chuck, which willfeature three trebuchetslaunching pumpkins.

A trebuchet is a device thatwas used in the Middle Ages tolaunch projectiles.

In keeping with the spirit ofthe occasion, a ballista will beadded this year. A ballista is a gi-ant crossbow, which in this casewill be used to fire pumpkins.

The cost is $3 to launch apumpkin or $5 to buy and launcha pumpkin.

Proceeds raised at the eventgo back to the park. Last year$2,000 was raised.

Between 10 to 15 food ven-dors will offer everything fromgrilled cheese and tomato soupto pizza and waffles.

WNKU will again broadcastlive from the event.

Kelley said attendance con-tinues to grow each year with800 to 900 people attending and500 pumpkins being launched, arecord that was set last year.

“We never imagined it wouldturn into the event it’s become,”said Kelley. “I think people justlike the spectacle of it.

“They like watching pump-kins splat.”

Anderson Township is tryingto find money to finish a parkinggarage project first announcedfive years ago.

The board of trustees ap-proved a resolution to apply for afederal transportation grant tocomplete the garage, which sitsbetween the Anderson Centerand Kmart on Five Mile Road.

The project was part of a pro-posed $40 million developmentthat was supposed to include atheater, condominiums, restau-rant and an amphitheater, butwas scaled back significantly be-

fore construction began.Work stopped on the garage in

late 2009 when First Financial

Bank started foreclosure pro-ceedings against the developer,the JFP Group, and that case is

currently in court.Township Trustee Russ Jack-

son said he learned a couplemonths ago that there were fundsavailable and other developershad used the grants to completeparking garages that tied to com-mercial projects.

there and there aren’t awhole heck of a lot of ga-rages that are consideringto be built or are in thestate of our garage,” hesaid.

The federal grant forcongestion mitigation andair quality is dispersedthrough the Ohio KentuckyIndiana Regional Councilof Governments (OKI).

Jackson said the town-ship’s high rating with OKIbecause of previous pro-jects could have a positiveeffect on the grant applica-tion, as could the tie-in tothe Anderson Center Sta-tion Metro bus hub.

Anderson Township al-ready paid $5.8 millionfrom the tax increment fi-nancing (TIF) fund to theJFP Group for the garageconstruction and that couldbe used as a local match, he

said.The board unanimously

approved the resolution,but Trustee Kevin O’Brienexpress some skepticismabout the potential to fin-ish the parking garagewith grant money.

“We’ve used TIF moneyon this project ... and basi-cally, TIF money is localmoney that comes from lo-cal people paying their tax-es,” O’Brien said.

“It seems to me likewe’ve exhausted that mon-ey on the local level andnow we’re going ... andknocking on Uncle Sam’sfront door. I’m just con-cerned that they may notbe as receptive to our vi-sion of the AndersonTowne Place garage as weare.”

O’Brien said the projectwas a bit of a pipe dreamwhen it was first an-nounced in 2006, and willrequire millions more tofinish it. O’Brien said hewould be more comfort-able if there was a plan inplace, with a cost estimate,on what to do with the An-derson Towne Place devel-opment.

“I’m all for finishing theproject, but under whatconditions?” he asked.

“What bothers me aboutthis is this was somethingthat a government entitywas trying to do that theprivate sector refused todo. In my experience thatgenerally leads to disas-ter.”

Jackson said more than90 percent of all townshipproperty in AndersonTownship did not pay anytax dollars toward the taxincrement financing fundor building the garage.

Anderson Township of-ficials need to notify OKIthat they intend to applyfor the grant by Nov. 14,though the actual applica-tion process and reviewwill be early next year.

the gathering. “Some ofthe waiters and waitress-es (at the dinner) startedas young kids helpingout,” he said.

ANDERSON TWP. —American Legion Post 318could have a new homeby the end of the year.

The Post has beensearching for a locationfor nearly a year sinceselling its Forest Roadproperty last December.

“We’ve entered into acontract to buy the oldBeacon Foods Market onClough Pike,” Post 318Commander Don Bishopsaid.

"Before we can pur-chase it we are conduct-ing inspections and ourdue diligence ... then wehave to go through thezoning process becausewe’re going to change the

use from a market to anAmerican Legion.”

If the change is ap-proved Bishop said he ex-pects to complete the dealby the end of the year.

Post 318 looked at bothbuildings and vacant landaround the township –from Beechmont Avenue

to Salem and Round Bot-tom roads – but nothingworked out.

“We tried to find a

property in the core com-munity that we couldmake work but unfortu-nately for us the costswere just too prohibitive,”Bishop said.

“(The Clough Pike lo-cation) is very close towhat we defined as thecore and it looks like thefinancials are going towork. We’re working hardto make this happen.”

American Legion Post318 had been at the ForestRoad location for morethan 50 years, but therewere a number of issueswith the building includ-ing water in the basementand the need for signifi-cant plumbing and elec-tric updates.

Bishop said the Postdoes not have a line of

credit and the moneyfrom selling its old loca-tion will be enough to buyand renovate the newspace.

They’ve hired an archi-tect to investigate how totransform the formermarket into a large hall,club room and commer-cial kitchen.

The Post would like torent the hall as well ashost fish fries, spaghettidinners and pancakebreakfasts for the com-munity, he said.

Riverfront plan and theplan for the Ancor area innorthern Anderson Town-ship. Both are expected to

be complete by the end of2012.

Staff recommended up-dating the Ohio Riverfront

Plan first because that en-tertainment district hasthe potential for a largeamount of growth in a rela-tively short period of time,especially if gaming comesto River Downs.

Planning and Zoning Di-rector Paul Drury said thestudy encompasses severalaspects of the Ohio River-

front in Anderson Town-ship, including environ-mental issues, strategicplanning and gaming.

Representatives fromPinnacle Entertainment,which owns the racetrack,have declined to commenton plans for further devel-opment on that site.

The study encompassesmuch of the southern por-tion of Anderson Township,extending along KelloggAvenue, also known as U.S.52, from the city of Cincin-nati limits to the ClermontCounty line and north to In-terstate 275.

Trustee Kevin O’Briensaid this is a large portionof the township and hewants to make sure the$50,000 adequately coversany specialists the consult-ing firm may need to ad-dress issues related to Co-ney Island, River Downs,Riverbend Music Centerand the commercial trafficalong the Ohio River.

The consultants will be-gin collecting data and de-mographics of the OhioRiverfront area whiletownship officials assem-ble a steering committeecomprised of the variousstakeholders, Drury said.

He anticipates publicmeetings will be conductedearly next year and thestudy will take about sixmonths to complete.

ANDERSON TOWNSHIP — TheForest Hills Local School Districtis evaluating enforcement of itsdress code.

During a recent school boardmeeting, board members dis-cussed whether inappropriatedress was an impediment tolearning.

Board President Randy Smithsaid discussions with the princi-

pals have indicated student dressis not currently an issue nor has it

had an impact onthe learning envi-ronment.

However, Su-perintendent Dal-las Jackson said arandom observa-tion of studentsduring severallunch hours at thehigh school and

middleschool indicatedanumber

of violations of the dress code.Outofabout1,250students,100

violations were noted. Most ofthese violations involved shortsand skirts which were not theproper length, he said.

“We feel the dress code is am-ple and adequate,” said Jackson.“(The) dilemma is enforcement.”

Jackson said the problem canbe addressed through continuedmonitoring.

Board member Richard Neu-mann said he considers student

dress an issue.“I think way too many (stu-

dents) come to school dressed asslobs,” he said. Although he saidhe does not necessarily advocateschool uniforms, he said a style ofdress involving collared shirts,slacks and more appropriate ap-parel might be worth consider-ing.

If it’s turning the clock backit’sturningtheclockback,hesaid.

Neumann said the style ofdress at the elementary schools

should also be considered. “Ithinkweshouldtakeahardlookatthis,” he said.

Board member Forest Heisagreed the dress code is a topicwhich warranted further consid-eration.

He suggested possibly imple-menting some type of pilot pro-gramattheelementarygradelev-el.

The school board did not makean official decision on the dresscode during the meeting.

I'm not one of those peoplewho goes bounding to the gymwith glee to sign up for every bootcamp class it offers. In fact, I'mthe person who considers puttingthe laundry away to be an under-appreciated form of exercise.

However, this week, I've beeninspired by Mrs. Bischof, theMaddux P.E. teacher, and her de-dication to the health and nutri-tion of our children.

She's worked very hard to in-tegrate field days back into ourcalendar. She makes sure theMaddux Memo has a good supplyof Nutrition Nuggets to send outon a regular basis. And she workshard to introduce our children toa variety of sports and activitiesto encourage them to exercise.

Friday, Oct. 14, was our Fall

Field Day. Mrs. Bischof and theMaddux faculty and staff led stu-dents through a variety of fungames to get them excited about

being active and give them ideasof fun and interesting ways to doso.

We all see the bad news aboutchildhood obesity rates in thiscountry, so I'm hoping the Mad-dux community can avoid thisstatistic by taking the energy andexcitement Mrs. Bischof is gen-erating with field day and turn itinto action at home.

Perhaps a favorite Field Dayactivity can be worked into fam-ily time. Or maybe you can workan after-dinner walk into the pic-ture a couple of times a week. Itdoesn't have to be much - it justhas to be moving!

As for myself, I'm still not go-ing to be rushing to the gym forboot camp any time soon, but youmight see me out with my kidswalking the dogs more often thanyou have in the past. Wave if youdo!

ANDERSON TWP. — So far, sogood for the McNicholas HighSchool girl soccer team.

The Rockets opened up thepostseason with a 6-0 victoryover New Richmond in the sec-ond round of the Division IIsectional tournament, Oct. 20.

Sophomore midfielder LizWittwer had two goals in thewin.

According to assistant coach

Michael Wood, McNicholas wasable to rest its starters duringthe second half because thesquad carried a 5-0 lead intohalftime.

The Rockets finished theregular season ranked No. 2 inthe final Division II city coach-es’ poll and played Wyoming inthe sectional finals, Oct. 24 (af-ter Forest Hills Journal dead-line).

Last week’s questionWhat was the best Halloween

costume you ever wore? Whatmade it so good?

“Best Halloween costumeever? That would be the one Iwore at a neighbor's party about15-20 years ago. It was a simpleblack bathrobe that looked likethe ones professional boxerswear into the ring. Across theback, I had affixed golden letterswhich said simply ‘Iron Mike.’ Ibrought a pair of boxing gloves tofinish it off. It was a big hit!”

Bill B.

“Back in the ’80s, when mykids were small, I built a woodenframe on top of the frame of analuminum backpack that had ahead like ball on top. I thendraped the whole thing in blackcloth to become a 10' tall blackspecter.”

F.S.D.

“Not really a costume, but wewould put painting equipmentprops next to the port-o-lets atone local haunted house, and aspeaker behind one of them wait-ing for the perfect victim to enterone. Then we would tell the occu-pant to ‘hurry up, we are trying topaint the basement and they areblocking the light!’”

O.H.R.

“In college I went to a party asa graffiti ghost - cut eyeholes in aplain white sheet, took somemarkers with me, and asked oth-er guests to ‘write on my wall. Itwas a great costume because ev-eryone had such fun writingthings and then reading what oth-ers wrote - I became the hit of theparty.

J.R.B.

“The best costume I ever worewas actually two costumes. Wehad a lady in our neighborhoodwho gave out a dime for Hallow-een. Back in the early ’60s. thiswas a real haul. We would wearone costume and get our dime andlater we would come back with adifferent costume later and getanother dime. That is one of mybest Halloween memories.”

Experienced,knowledgable leadersneeded

For the first time since 1995, Ihave opposition for the positionof Anderson Township fiscal offi-cer. I hope you have been pleasedwith my service.

During my tenure, AndersonTownship has been fiscally re-sponsible (one levy the last 10years, balances in all operatingfunds and one of the lowest effec-

tive residential tax rates in thearea), had clean audits, achievedthe highest bond rating (Aaa) pos-sible for a township, insisted onlean budgets, provided high-qual-ity services (fire and rescue,sheriff patrols, road mainte-nance and snow removal) and es-tablished a center of community.

When the Forest Hills Journalasked me why I was running forfiscal officer I stated that I en-joyed working over the past 16years with an excellent staff (fis-

cal office, administration, de-partment heads and their person-nel) and two dedicated, hard-working trustees, Russ Jacksonand Peggy Reis.

I also have appreciated the op-portunity to serve the residentsof Anderson Township and thebusiness community. In thesetough economic times we needexperienced and knowledgeablepeople at the helm.Ken Dietz

Anderson Township fiscal officer

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

As a long-time resident of An-derson Township, I have had theexperience of meeting some ofthegreatestpeopleofmylife. It isthrough the people of this greattownship that I have learned theimportance of a strong communi-ty and the importance of respon-sibility.

Anderson has achieved thestatus as being one of the most de-sirable places to live in inside of

Cincinnati. Wehave gained thisreputation be-cause our com-munity reflectsthe importanceof family val-ues, the bondswe have withour neighbors,and our drivefor achieve-ment.

I am seekingthe position as your fiscal officernot to be something more thanwhat I am, for no matter what theoutcome of the election I will stillbe just one among the 40,000 resi-dents here. Instead, I am seekingto be your elected fiscal officer tobe responsive and to representyou as the family, friend andneighbor that you are to me. An-derson Township deserves some-one that understands the econo-my (I graduated with a degree ineconomics) and understandsthem. That is why I seek yourvote.

We are, however, at an inter-esting time in our township’s longhistory. Gov. Kasich set forth an

agenda for Ohio to cut wastefulspending and to improve thestate’s fiscal standing. With theeconomic situation that the na-tion, state and township havebeen faced with tough decisionsdirectlyaffectingAndersonweremade.

The local government fundhas faced cuts nearing as much as50 percent during the next twoyears, and revenue from the es-tatetaxisexpectedtobeeliminat-ed at the start of 2013. With near$700,000 coming from the localgovernment fund in 2010, andnear $1.7 million coming from theestate tax, the trustees, adminis-trators and fiscal officer will befaced with some difficult choicesfor the next several years.

It is because of this economicsituation that we need a fiscal of-ficer who understands the econo-myandwhodemonstratestheval-ues that Anderson Township haslong been recognized for having.

Under Ken Dietz and the othergovernment officials the town-ship has wasted large sums ofyour money on excessive and os-tentatious projects. The Ander-son Center wasted $30 million ofyour hard-earned money to sitnear empty on most days. Themovie theater project, which wasmishandled by Mr. Dietz and thetrustees, has already wasted $5.8million, and there is near no signthattheprojecteverevenstarted.

Using unsound funding prac-tices the township has made poorspending decisions such as thesethatdonotrepresentthevaluesofthisgreattownshipanditspeople.

It is from a lack of understandingof economics and a lack of keep-ing true to the township that suchdecisions were made.

Anderson Township deservesbetter than this, and it deserves acandidate such as me that has afull academic background in eco-nomics, that understands theprinciples of a free market, andunderstands the effects of publicpolicy on the community and ourdaily lives.

Alexander Glaser is a candidate forAnderson Township fiscal officer.

Candidate: Twp. deserves better

I am running for re-election tothe Anderson Township Board ofTownship Trustees, as I wish tolimit the risk of our wonderfulcommunity being decimated bypeople who may not possess the

standards thatyou and I believeare essential tomaintaining thequality of life thatwe enjoy andcherish here inAnderson.

Why havegroups like theAnderson TeaParty, the Ander-son Republican

Party, the Hamilton County Re-publican Party and the CincinnatiRight to Life PAC, among numer-ous others, endorsed me?

They know that my first prior-ity is fiscal responsibility, withcurrent spending cut back to 2008levels, even though township rev-enues have not been diminished.

They know that I work withKen Dietz to maintain balancedbudgets, helped achieve the high-est attainable credit rating for agovernmental entity and saw thatwe didn’t mortgage our chil-dren’s future by creating anylong-term debt.

They know that I played a rolein Anderson’s having one of thelowest effective residential prop-erty tax rates in the area, withonly one levy in the past 10 yearsand none planned for the near fu-ture.

They know that I assure thatAnderson Township provides ex-emplary public services: fire/EMS, police, road maintenanceand snow removal and does itwhile receiving only 16 cents outof every property tax dollar youpay.

They know that I focus on en-hancing Anderson’s quality oflife and creating a positive senseof community, as these are thekeys to protecting property val-ues, particularly those of seniorson fixed incomes.

They know that I have appliedmy 37 years of business manage-ment experience to actually helprun a government like a business!

And, they know that I opposefederal regulations like nationalhealth care and other mandatesthat over-burden local taxpayers.

You don’t hear much abouttrustees if they are doing a goodjob, except, perhaps, through theoccasional distorted headline in-tended to create controversywhere none exists. Trustees can’t

pass laws and can’t enact taxes,as our primary job is to spend themoney that the taxpayers give usto provide the level of servicethat the taxpayers’ desire.

This year the Anderson Cen-ter will host some 2,000 events,events that would otherwise havebeen held outside our communi-ty. While some questioned theneed for the center, it was builtwithin budget, cost millions ofdollars less than centers in near-by communities and was paid forwith funds of which over 90 per-cent of our taxpayers didn’t con-tribute a single penny.

With our local economy on therise, as evidenced by all the newbusinesses moving into our com-munity, I remain confident thatthe privately owned parking ga-rage will be completed in the nearfuture and I will continue to worktirelessly toward that goal.

I make no claims that all hasbeen perfect during my tenure,but I am proud to have taken alead role in keeping our govern-ment small, our taxes low and ourproperty values high.

I would appreciate your sup-port on Nov. 8!

Russell Jackson is a candidate forAnderson Township trustee.

Law-making is a great power,and in Anderson Township wehave come to expect that those ingovernment are going to use it toadvance their own interests.Since I announced candidacy fortrustee I have been arrested fourtimes, I have been told that’s whyno one challenges my opponent.Fear of regimes intimidating tac-tics frightens citizens from plac-ing my campaign signs in support

on their proper-ty.

My cam-paign signsread “LIVEFREE-VOTE-DAPPER-TRUSTEE”Those signsmean I stand forfreedom andagainst undesir-able govern-ment coercion,

which is coercion that is aggres-sive in nature and not defensive;coercion that attacks freedomrather than protects it.

America’s Founders under-stood clearly that private proper-ty is the foundation not only ofprosperity but of freedom itself.Thus, through the common law,state law, and the Constitutionthey protected property rights,the rights of people to freely ac-quire, use, and dispose of proper-ty. With the growth of AndersonTownship government, however,those rights have been seriouslycompromised.

Anderson Township, over theyears, has passed hundreds oflaws limiting individual rights topeaceful enjoyment of theirproperty. I’ve listened to town-ship residents tormented bythese unjust laws, the pee-weefootball coach begrudgingly ex-plaining to his young athleteswhy two fire trucks, ambulance,and police car had raced up turn-ing his yard into swamp extin-guishing their weenie roast forlack of permit, another hadn’t

been granted permission to parkhis boat in side yard, then the onewho had to remove an $80 snap-together kiddy pool from thebackyard for lack of permit, An-derson Township has gotten tothe point where you can’t plant atree or harbor a dog without a bu-reaucrat’s permission.

It is the case that some Ander-son Township citizens wish tohave their lives controlled andfreely give up their rights toneighborhood associations, andagrees to be coerced by AndersonTownship government in certainmatters. They accept that gov-ernment willingly and allow suchcoercion. In this choice there isno diminishment of their free-dom. But when Anderson Town-ship bureaucrats coerces otherpersons who do not accept thatgovernment’s rule, people thatwant to live freely eschewingcontrolled neighborhoods, thenthose involuntarily coerced per-sons suffer a loss of freedom.America proclaims land of thefree; Anderson Township is landof the controlled.

The Founders would be ap-palled to see what AndersonTownship has done to propertyrights over the course of the pasttwo decades. The time has cometo restore respect for these mostbasic of rights, the foundation ofall of our rights. Freedom is oursby nature, and the long history ofthe world is really one unceasing,increasing catalog of the epic bat-tles for personal freedomsagainst government tyranny.

In these days of double-digitinflation and unemployment weneed problem-solving, creative-thinking politicians. Inflation inthe nation doesn’t bother me be-cause I’m a scholar with a dollarit’s plain to see, recall MountRussSpendMore sticker spree?

Live free, vote Stephen Dap-per trustee!

Mercy Health is pro-moting women’s health fora good cause during themonth of October, which isBreast Cancer AwarenessMonth.

Mercy Health is launch-ing a campaign encourag-ing women age 40 and overto schedule their annualmammogram at one oftheir hospitals during themonth of October.

The campaign is part ofa dual effort to raise aware-ness about the importanceof having annual mammo-grams and support the lo-cal chapter of the Ameri-can Cancer Society. Foreach mammogram sched-uled in October, MercyHealth will donate $1 to theAmerican Cancer Societyto fund mammograms forthe poor and underserved.

“Annual mammogramssave lives because they candetect breast cancers at

their earliest, most treat-able stage,“ said Dr. MaryAlfidi, radiologist at MercyHealth Anderson Hospital.“It is extremely importantthat all women get their an-nual mammogram begin-ning at the age of 40.”

Mercy Health wants toensure all women have ac-cess to quality preventiveand medical care, which iswhy partnering with theAmerican Cancer Societyis so important.

“We are grateful to Mer-cy Health for providingthis donation to such an im-portant program,” saidMeredith Niemeyer, re-gional vice-president of theAmerican Cancer Society –Southwest Ohio region.“We are proud to partnerwith Mercy Health in help-ingtoofferthisveryimpor-tant healthcare service towomen who otherwisemight not be able to get an

annual mammogram.”Last year, Mercy donat-

ed $8,000 to the AmericanCancer Society, to help pro-vide mammograms towomen who would normal-ly not have access.

Every Wednesday dur-ing October, volunteers atall six Mercy Health hospi-tals and The Jewish Hospi-tal Breast Center will behanding out pink carna-tions during select hours towomen visiting the facili-ties.

Women will be encour-aged to make the schedul-ing call for their annualmammogram during Octo-ber to have $1 pledged ontheir behalf to the Ameri-can Cancer Society cam-paign. Although the sched-uling call must be made byOct. 31, women can set theappointment for a date andtime which works best forthem throughout the year.
