A new contract betweenteachers and the Indian HillBoard of Education has beenapproved.

Both the school board andthe teachers union, the IndianHill Educators ProfessionalOrganization, agreed on thecontract during votes lastweek.

“I believe (the agreement)is representative of a mutualcollaborative effort,” Lewissaid. “We are thrilled that wenow have a local organizationrepresenting the interests ofthe Indian Hill community.”

The Indian Hill EducatorsProfessional Organizationwas certified by the StateEmployment RelationsBoard July 24. It began nego-tiationswith theboardAug. 5.

The organization has re-placed the former IndianHillEducationAssociation,whichwas associated with the OhioEducation Association.

Unlike the former organi-zation, the Educators Organi-zation has no affiliation withany state or national organi-zation.

“We look forward to start-ing a new school year with acontract and a new coopera-tive relationship with our ad-ministrators and Board ofEducation,” said Anne Kuhn,president of the organization.

Kuhn said the vote by theEducators Organization was140 to 3 in favor of the con-tract.

The district’s last contractexpired in June 2013. The In-

dian Hill Education Associa-tion had been in negotiationswith the board for more thana year.

Kuhn said many of the ne-gotiation challenges could beattributed to state and nation-al concerns which were notnecessarily an issue at the lo-cal level.Without the state af-filiation, though, Kuhn saidthe organization was able tomove forward in a shorter pe-riod of time.

The new agreement willprovide step restoration and“across the board” increasesfor eligible teachers duringeach year of the contract,which will be for three years.

Additionally, the contractspecifies teachers must re-ceive “an accomplished orskilled rating” on their prin-cipal’s evaluation in the pre-ceding school year to be eligi-ble for any increases in com-pensation.

The announcement duringthe Aug. 12 school boardmeeting was met with ap-plause by teachers who werein attendance. The EducatorsOrganization voted on thecontract Aug. 15.

“All parties demonstratedmutual respect and a collabo-rative spirit,” Superinten-dent Mark Miles said. “Therelationship with the (Educa-tors Organization) is the be-ginning of something uniqueand special.”

Hailey Blackwelder of Indi-an Hill will never forget a littlegirl she met this summer whenshe traveled to Ecuador as partof a nonprofit service group tohelp build housing for an or-phanage.

The girl was in a wheelchairbecause she does not have theuse of her legs, she gesturedwith her hands a lot to commu-nicate because she has troublespeaking – and she displayed anoutsized emotional heart forothers.

“Whenever one of the otherkidswould be crying, shewouldroll her chair right up behindthem and try and push theirchair back and forth to helpcalm them down,” said Black-welder, who is17 and a senior atMadeira High School.

“If she couldn’t help comfortthem, she would roll over to avolunteer and make sure theyrealized theotherchildwascry-ing and give them the attentionthey need.”

Blackwelder said she wasarmwrestlingwith the littlegirlone day when the girl noticedBlackwelder had big, raw blis-ters on her hand fromworking.

The little girl stopped thegame and said “ouch,” prompt-ing Blackwelder to assure herthat she was fine.

“That wasn’t a good enoughanswer for her,” Blackweldersaid.

“She took my hand andkissed it.”

Blackwelder’s blisteredhandsbore testimony to howse-riously she took her volunteerwork inEcuador June 25 to July12.

The trip with other youths

from theUnitedStates andCan-ada was sponsored by Humani-tarian Experience for YouthofProvo, Utah, which offers hu-manitarian expeditions toyouths 16 to 19.

The program is open to allyouths but oriented to the pre-cepts of The Church of JesusChrist of Latter-day Saints.

“We laid pipe, dug sewerlines, laid sidewalk, dug trench-es for the sidewalk, laid brick,chiseled out holes in the brickstructure for electrical linesand cemented the house androof,” Blackwelder said.

“We also spent two days aweek working in the orphanagewhere we took the children forwalks,playedgamesandhelpedwith dressing, grooming andfeeding.

It looks like the happytrail that a former RoyRogers Restaurant lostwhen a lease dispute

forced it to leave the Mt.Carmel area in May hasbeen rediscovered andmay lead to Milford.

“Roney’s (the restau-rant’s current name) op-erated for over 50 yearsand has a very loyal fol-lowing of customers,”Milford City ManagerJeff Wright said.

“Milford staff hasbeen working to lurethem to a new location inMilford and they have atentative agreementwithCincinnati United Con-tractors for a buildingthat could be built forthem on Chamber Drivenear the Milford Park-way in Milford.”

The Milford PlanningCommission approved asite plan Aug. 13 submit-ted by Cincinnati UnitedContractors to build anearly 2,900-square-footbuilding for Roney’s.

“To my knowledge thedeal has not closed yet,but zoning approval wasone hurdle that needed tobe obtained before a po-tential deal could be con-sidered,” said Pam Hol-brook, assistant Milfordcity manager and thecity’s planning and zon-ing expert.

“They will need abuilding permit prior toconstruction, but they donot need to go back toplanning commission.”

Milford has not of-fered Roney’s any tax in-

centives.The city is making

sure restaurant repre-sentatives have a goodidea of what Milford hasto offer.

That includes “a veryefficient, one-stop re-view process,” Holbrooksaid.

“Thecitywould love tohave the iconic Roney’srestaurant locate here,”Holbrook said.

“They bring a greatfood product alongwith alarge and faithful follow-ing.”

David Loftspring, whohad operated the RoyRogers Restaurant offstate Route 32 in UnionTownship since he took itover from his father inthe late 1970s, has said heleft the franchise in 2012when he could not stom-ach required changes tothe restaurant andmenu.

Loftspring, who couldnot be reached for com-ment, kept the cowboy-themed decor and themenu of roast beef sand-wiches, hamburgers andfried chicken.

He also kept the largecovered wagon sign out-side, replacing “RoyRog-ers” with “Roney’s” afterthe restaurant’s addressat 474 Roney Lane.

Bumps, bubbles andbreaks on a 1.6-milestretchof theLittleMiamiScenic Trail near Milfordhave been paved over.

That’s thanks to theFriends of the Little Mi-ami State Park, a nonprof-it groupof volunteers thathas since 2008maintainedand improved the park,which is really a formerrail corridor stretching50miles between Newtownand Spring Valley nearXenia.

The park corridor tiesinto trails like the LittleMiami Scenic Trail alongthe way.

Friends of the LittleMiami State Park won a$150,000 grant from theU.S. Department ofTransportation after rais-ing therequiredmatching$37,000 in18 days last fall.

The group used the$187,000 grant andmatch-ing money to repair andrepave six broken sec-tions of the Little MiamiState Park trail — thelargest being the onearound Milford – for thebenefit of cyclists, run-ners and walkers.

“Estimates of peopleusing the trail are around500,000 a year, but wehave installed electroniccounters anddata is beinganalyzed to get amore ac-curate count,” said JanetSlater, communicationscoordinator for theFriends of the Little Mi-ami State Park, which hasmembers all along thepark corridor, doesn’tspend money on a head-quarters and maintains aMason mailing address.

“Our trail and otherslike it consistently drawbusiness to an area; Love-

land is a prime example,”Slater said.

Milford also benefits,says City Manager JeffWright.

“Milford’s location onthe Little Miami Bike (orScenic) Trail is one of thecomponents of successfor our downtown mer-chants and is a factor inMilford’s identity, as evi-denced in us being namedthe first ‘Trail Town’ inOhio,” Wright said.

“Inaddition to thecom-mercial benefits, it also isa very positive factor inthe quality of life of ourresidents since it adds tothewellness/exercise fac-tor and research showsthat property values clos-est to long-distance biketrails are higher.”

The Ohio State Parkssection of the Ohio De-partment of Natural Re-sources recently recog-nized the Friends of theLittle Miami State Parkgroup’s work in a letter,saying, “From the outset,the Friends of Little Mi-ami State Park has beenone of our most highly ef-fective volunteer groupswith the vision and ambi-tion to get things done.

“We appreciate youroutstanding work on im-mediateneeds, suchas re-surfacing the trailbridges and cleaning upstorm debris, not to men-tion the ongoing trailmaintenance and fund-raising projects that youaccomplish.”

Brad Eaganshouldbeupat the front aswell,after a strong season where hewas part of the state record andnational champion 4x800 meterrelay team.Other individuals towatch would include StephenJones of Troy (a state qualifierin the 3,200 meters), MasonMoore of Summit Country Day(state champ in DIII for 1,600meters), Ben Ewert of Beaver-creek (national Junior Olympic2,000 meter Steeplechasechamp).

On the girls side of things,

Annie Heffernan returns to de-fend her title. Shewill be tryingto win this race for the thirdyear in a row. St. Ursulawas theteam champion last year andthey will be going up against astrong field including Beaver-creek(staterunner-upasa teamlast year), Walnut Hills, Ursu-lineAcademy (thirdat state as ateam last year), and Eaton. Bea-vercreekcomes inasapotentialstate championship contender.They return all but one of theirtop seven from last year.

On the individual side, Hef-fernan is the overwhelming fa-vorite to win the title, but shewill have a group ready to chal-lenge if she falters. Emma Bry-ant (state qualifier 1,600), Cath-erine Finke (state qualifier2013), and Olivia Connaughton(state qualifier 2013) will com-pete for other podium spots.

The fun starts at 5:30 pm forthe junior high races and con-cludes with the races under thelightsat 8:30and9p.m..Accord-ing toMoeller coachDavePren-ger, roughly 1,800 runners areexpected to be in attendance.

SHORT HOPS

INDIAN HILL — Bill Mees islooking at a milestone year asboys soccer coach at IndianHill High School.

If the Braves have the sea-son they usually have, Meeswill acquire careerwinNo. 300

in his 26th yearwith the team.

Indian Hillfinished 15-6-2last season and6-1 in theCincin-nati HillsLeague. Theseason culmi-nated Nov. 6 atHuber Heights

Wayne with a grueling, rainyloss in the Division II statesemifinals toColumbusBishopWatterson, the eventual statechampion.

“Wehavesolid talent,”Meessaid of the upcoming season.“They know from last yearwhat they need to do to be suc-cessful.”

The Braves lost several all-league players to graduationbut do return senior AustinSchneider, who was second-team CHL and senior honor-able mention Chris Duncan.Seniors Brooks Renfro andJamesPflughauptwill also addveteran experience.

Indian Hill last shared theleague title with Madeira in2011.

Mees had another difficultschedule planned for theBraves as they face Anderson,Loveland, Carroll, Oak Hills,Turpin, Fenwick, Tippecanoe,Milford and Alter in non-con-ference action. The homeopener is with Carroll on Aug.23 and theCHLstartswhende-fending champion Mariemontpays a visit on Aug. 26.

Cincinnati Country Dayalso enters the new season af-ter a strong 2013 campaign.The Indianswent17-2-2 overall- 6-1-1 in theMiami Valley Con-ference - and reached the re-gional tournament for the firsttime in school history.

Veteran coach Greg Hir-schauer only graduated two

players from that club andlooks forward to challengingtwo-time defending statechampion Summit CountryDay for the MVC crown andpossibly more.

“We’re actually deeper thisyear than last year,” Hir-schauer said. “We definitelyhaveahigh levelof skill andwedefinitely have experience.

This team has high expecta-tions.”

Senior defender and mid-fielderWill Cohen leads the re-turning players, along withclassmates Nathan Gibson(midfield), Luke Deimer (mid-field and defender), BrandinWard (midfield) and MatthewMacFarland (midfield).

Keeper Ian McInturf - who

recorded 12 shutouts as afreshman - will miss the earlypart of the season with an inju-ry. Several other players arenicked up, but should be readyby theAug.19 season opener atMcNicholas. CCDhostsMarie-mont Aug. 23 and begins MVCplay at North CollegeHill Aug.

gard, Grace Krammer, Char-lotte Jackson, Kaitlin Harden,Lauren Buczek, Olivia Brown,and Olivia Robinson.

Games to watch: SummitCountry Day, McNicholas, Ba-din, Fenwick, Mariemont andMadeira

Season outlook: “We arevery excited about building onthe success from last year andworking hard to be better. Wereturn a great nucleus from lastyear—we need to find someoneto put the ball in the back of thenet after the graduation of all-state player Kelsey Zimmers. Ithink we will be a team that hasthe capability for three or fourplayers to score 10-12 goals andbe more balanced than nextyear.OliviaBrownandBriMag-gardare twoall-cityperformerswho will quarterback the mid-field. Olivia Robinson had eightshutouts as a freshman and willbe one of the top goalkeepers inDivision III. We have upgradedour schedule with some of thebest teams around:McNick, Ba-din, Fenwick to go with Marie-mont andMadeira innon-leaguegames. I know we will be fullyprepared when tourney timerolls around.

I think until someone beatsthem—Summit is the team tobeat in the MVC. Our goal likeeveryyear is towinMVCandgoas far in the OHSAA tourney. Ithinkwe have the talent but likeany season we need to stayhealthy and become a team inthe summer and the pre-season.

I have four seniors who willbe great leaders and playerswhohaveexperienced the toughschedule for the last coupleyears. I think I’m in good handswith them.

I think Summit will be theMVC favorite with CHCA andCCS having very solid teamcoming back and will make theMVC very competitive.”

Season outlook: “The sea-son will be defined by playersstepping into more importantroles with the departure of fourDI college signees. Wiser, thelast remaining starter from the2011 state championship willlead the teambothonandoff thefield. There should be severalscoring options with Wiser, deJesus who set the freshmenscoring record, Evans who set arecord for assists in a seasonand speedy freshman Ravin Al-exander.

With the 2015 Major LeagueBaseball All-Star Game com-ing to Cincinnati, focus will beon its rich baseball history.Part of that is Crosley Field,where the Reds played from1912 to 1970.

Crosley Field, or at least areconstructed version of it,can be seen to the south as youdrive along Interstate 275, justlike the original was visiblealong I-75. Located in the BlueAsh Sports Center at 11540

Grooms Road,it was dedicat-ed in 1988 tothe “Youth ofBaseball.”

The blue-prints fromthe originalwere used,which includ-ed a grassinfield, thefield dimen-

sions, the outfield terrace andthe height and angles of theoutfield wall. The scoreboardis as it was whenWayne Gran-ger threw the final pitch toBobby Bonds on June 24, 1970.

The stands near the thirdbaseline dugout contain morethan 400 seats from CrosleyField. The wood portions of theseats have been replaced byplastic though. A ticket booththat originally stood outsidethe ballpark is also there.

In the ’80s and ’90s, the fieldhosted an annual Old-Timersgame, where Reds of the pastplayed other formerMajorLeague players. At the origi-nal’s ticket booth, they handedout bags with peanuts, CrackerJacks, and a scorecard. Hotdogs and soft drinks were onlya dime.

In 1991, they recognized the30th anniversary of the 1961World Series with former

Yankees and manager RalphHouk in the visiting team dug-out. The Reds included JimO’Toole, Bob Purkey, JohnnyEdwards and Leo Cardenas.Local celebrity Jerry Springerwas the American Leaguecatcher.

In 1994, it celebrated JoeNuxhall’s 50th year in base-ball. In 1995, the 25th anniver-sary of the last game at Cros-ley Field, the Reds’ dugout hadReds’ pitchers JimMaloney,Johnny Vander Meer and JoeNuxhall. An outer wall fea-tures a number of plaquescommemorating the CrosleyField-era Reds’ greats andothers that played at the BlueAsh field.

Just north of Union Termi-nal, off of I-75, is the formersite of Crosley Field. Today,seven buildings occupy thesite and Dalton Ave. runs rightthrough where the stadiumused to be.

The stadiumwas at thecorner of Western Avenue andFindlay Street. Left field wasalong York Street, center fieldand right field were alongWestern Avenue, and the firstbase side of the stadiumwasalong Findlay Street.

You can see where homeplate at Crosley Field was bygoing west along Findlay pastDalton.

Rather than being pre-served after the Reds movedto Riverfront Stadium, onApril 19, 1972, Pete Rose Jr.pulled a lever that sent awrecking ball, bearing thegrinning face of Mr. Red, intothe side of Crosley Field.

Gary Crouch is a resident of Cler-mont County. He had a weeklycolumn on sports and sports collect-ibles for a Dayton publication in the‘90s.

The scoreboard at the CrosleyField replica in Blue Ash is exactlyas it was June 24, 1970, when thelast pitch was thrown at theoriginal ballpark. THANKS TO GARY

CROSLEY FIELDGONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

Gary CrouchCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Aug. 13 questionDo you think there is too

much, or not enough, govern-ment involvement in schools?Where do you see it?

“Don’t you think there is fartoo much government involve-ment in our schools? I certain-ly do. Local school boards,local school managementteams, local teachers and mostimportantly local parents (OKmost of them, not all) knowbest what is needed in our localschools so let’s eliminate allfederal intervention and a lotof the state intervention too.While we’re at it, let’s elim-inate the tenure system, butthat’s another whole issue.

“No Student Left Behind

was and remains one of themost ill-conceived programsfor schools and has gravelyinjured the overall level andquality of actual educating inour schools. Due to the grossover-reach of governmentinvolvement, our teachersspend far too much time

‘teaching to the test’ ratherthan teaching our kids how tolearn and more importantly,how to have a desire to ques-tion and learn.

“Michelle Obama’s attemptto force healthy foods in schoollunches has increased theamount of wasted food becausekids simply won’t eat it andsome school systems are pass-ing on the federal money pro-vided for food programs be-cause of it. Get out, govern-ment interference in ourschools! We don’t need you.”

M.J.F.

“I think Common Coreshould answer that question.”

Dave D.

“I just have one thing to say.Where in our Constitution doesit say that our government isauthorized to meddle in or payfor education?”

R.D.

“Once again the govern-ment is out of control.”

V.H.

“I do not think there is toomuch government involve-ment in schools. However Iwould prefer more govern-ment money and less overlap(overhead). We have federal,state and local school districtinvolvement. The use of prop-erty tax funding for schoollevies was first ruled unconsti-tutional by the Ohio State’s

Supreme Court over 15 yearsago. Levies are failing every-where in Ohio. Yet no alterna-tive has been put in place. Gofigure!”

T.D.T.

Aug. 6 questionWhat are your favorite desti-

nations at The Banks? How of-ten, if at all, do you visit TheBanks? What would you like tosee there?

“My favorite destinations atThe Banks are Mahogany’s,Crave, Orange Leaf and YardHouse. I visit The Banks atleast twice a month. I wishthere was a movie theater.”

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONShould schools continue toteach cursive writing? Why orwhy not?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

This essay might make a lotof people mad. I sincerely hopeso! I am writing as a very con-cerned citizen.

No matter which politicalparty you prefer, a prudentcitizen has to consider it as“The Least Worst Party.”

The list of governmentscandals grows as each newone is used to keep the mediafrom finalizing the blame forthe last one. At some point allof us should be alarmed. Partypolitics should take a distantsecond to our professed loyaltyto the guiding principles of ourthoughtful founding fathers.

The mistreatment anddeaths of veterans at some ofthe Veterans Administration

hospitals wasnot only inex-cusable, it wascriminal. Itdemands dras-tic action im-mediately. Thesimple answerof giving vet-erans the rightto treatment atlocal hospitalsis helpful, too

late and avoids fixing the prob-lem.

Mismanagement and politi-cal favoritism is the problem.Lives that were lost due to lackof treatment and insufferabledelays would not happen in anyother hospital system. There

would have been public re-sponse and corrections wouldhave been made immediatelyalong with appropriate recom-pense and firings.

The simple answer is totransfer the entire operationand control to local healthorganizations with responsibil-ities similar to their standards.Bidding would be appropriate.Salaries and duties of thetransferred staff should be inline with the acquiring facil-ities.

With the appointment ofRobert McDonald there issome hope for an efficientrevision of the VA. A lot de-pends on his ability to over-come the entrenched bureauc-

racy that is endemic in allgovernment agencies. Weshould hope that he changesthe VA into an efficient andwell run system.

Now, dare I add the IRS tothe list? Can you possiblyimagine a large corporationlosing all of its information intheir computers? Do you thinkthey could get away with lyingunder oath? Can you imaginethat almost any well run corpo-ration would not find a way toassess and collect taxes moreefficiently?

Suppose they were alsomaking large contributions to apolitical party. They would becaught immediately. Howmuchmoney would the gov-

ernment save due to the effi-ciencies of a corporation thatcollected taxes fairly and got areasonable bonus for creatingthe ability to lower taxes? Howmany businesses would thriveand hire more people due tolower taxes? Howmany des-perate people would find prof-itable jobs and start earning adecent living?

What both operations havein common is that they areover paid, over staffed andunder performing. This seemsto be common in all govern-ment enterprises.

AUGUST 21, 2014 • INDIAN HILL JOURNAL • B3LIFE

If you could see myherbgardenandcount thenumber of varieties ofbasil, you’d need morethan 10 fingers. I lovethem all, but when itcomes to making pesto, Iuse the sweet green, com-mon basil or its cousin,

Genovese.This is

the time ofyear tomake pes-to, whenbasil isabundant.The recipeI’msharingis a thickerpestomeant to

freeze well and is the oneI’ve beengetting requestsfor. The question I getasked most is if nuts areessential. No, andwalnutsmake a good substitutefor pine nuts. I have areader who makes it withalmonds, as well. Shouldyou add garlic beforefreezing? I add both nutsandgarlic tomypesto pri-or to freezing, but somefood experts leave themout since, in their opinion,these items turn strong inthe freezer. They addthem to the thawed pesto.

I use my food proces-sor, but you could use ablender or make this byhand. Add more oil afterthawing, if you like. Add alittle water when using itto coat pasta.

Rita’s freezer pesto1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons

garlic, minced1/4 cup pine nuts,

toasted if desired1/2 stick unsalted but-

ter (optional but good)

Generous handfulparsley leaves

4 generous cups basilleaves, packed

1-1/4 cups Parmesancheese or to taste

1/4 cup Romanocheese

1/2 to3/4 cupextravir-gin olive oil

Generous squeeze oflemon juice

Withprocessor’smotorrunning, add garlic andnuts. Add everything elseand using the pulse but-ton, pulse until justmixed, then pour into con-tainers and freeze.

Tip from Rita’skitchen:

Why does my pestoturn dark?

Sometimes the top lay-er of my pesto turns a bitdark in the freezer. Thatdoesn’t bother me, buthere are some ideas thatmay alleviate the prob-lem. I’ve tried them allandsometimes theywork,and sometimes theydon’t.But the darker color isonlyon the topanddoesn’taffect quality or taste.

» Basil oxidizes/turnsdark rapidly when leavesarecutupeither toofinelyand/or exposed to air, souse the pulse button tomix. That also alleviatesheat while processing,which can turn the basildark.

» Blanch the basilleaves to keep themgreen.

» Add parsley and lem-on juice to keep the greencolor.

» Pouring a thin film ofoil over the top beforestoring may keep air out.

Health benefits of bas-

il:Besides containing

iron, calcium and vitaminA, this member of themint family also containsnutrients that improveblood flow and help stopcholesterol from oxidiz-ing in the blood stream. Abasil steam facial iscleansing and calming.

Fruited gluten freebaked oatmeal

Baked oatmeal is thenewest trend for break-fast, or really any meal.

Reader Michelle fromWhite Oak shared thiswhich she tore out of a

newspaper in the doctor’soffice. I told her she’s notalone. I have to admit thatI’ve guiltily and hopefullysecretly done thatmyself.Here’s my adaptation.

1 cup oats, old fash-ioned or quick oats

1/2 cup chopped nuts1/2 teaspoon baking

powder1 teaspoon cinnamon1/4 cup pure maple

syrup1 cup 2%milk2 tablespoons butter

or substitute, melted1 egg1 teaspoon vanillaEnough ripe banana

slices to fill bottom ofpan - 2 or 3 bananas

1 cup sliced berriesPreheat oven to 375.

Spray a 2 quart bakingpan. Mix together oats,half the nuts, baking pow-der and cinnamon. Whisksyrup, milk, butter, eggand vanilla.

Layer bottom of panwith sliced bananas. Topwith oat mixture and halfthe berries.

Pour maple syrupmix-ture over. Top with rest ofberries and nuts. Bake 30-40 minutes. Cool slightlybefore serving.

Tip from Rita’skitchen:

Notsure ifyourpan is2quarts?

A 2-quart pan is 8x8x2”and holds 8 cups; a three-quart pan is 9x13” andholds 12 cups.

It’s true. Regular oil changes, tune-ups and maintenance can help improve your vehicle’s performance and gasmileage, extend its life and increase its resale value. It can also help reduce traffic congestion due to preventablebreakdowns. But possibly most important of all, taking good care of your car could help reduce emissions bymore than half. And that should make you breathe a lot easier between oil changes. So keep it up because…

“It is confirmed,” theemail seems to shoutwith excitement, as onceagain the NortheastEmergency DistributionService announces to itsboard that it’s time forthe annual NEEDSSchool Supply Drive.

It is the desire of theNEEDS board to makecertain all underprivi-leged students in the

northeast quadrant ofHamilton County re-ceive essential schoolsuppliesprior to the startof the school year. Annu-ally, in August, the boardand multitudes of volun-teers gather at the Ken-wood Baptist Churchearly in the morning tobegin the momentoustask of organizing schoolsupplies tobedistributed

to local schools. The dis-tricts that receive theitemsarePrinceton, Syc-amore, Madeira andDeer Park schools alongwith any private schoolwithin those borders.

School nurses in thesedistricts notify NEEDSwith a count of indigentchildren as well as thelist of school supplies.

NEEDS collecting school supplies

Delta Air Lines ischanging its SkyMilesProgram beginning Jan.1, and whether you’ll likethe changes depends onthe length of the trips youtake.

Delta will beginawarding SkyMilesbased on the cost of theairline ticket and thefare-class rather than thedistance flown. Medal-lion members will earnmore miles per dollarthan General Members,who will get five milesper dollar paid.

Silver Medallionmembers get sevenmilesper dollar paid, Gold getseight miles, Platinumgets nine miles and Dia-mond gets 11miles. Deltaco-branded Amex creditcards still earn twomilesper dollar spent.

So, if you’re flyingfrom Cincinnati, onceagain ranked as havingthe highest airline ticketprices among thenation’s100 largest airports,those higher fares willget you more SkyMileson shorter flights.

For instance, flights toFt. Lauderdale currentlyget you 1,864 SkyMilesroundtrip, while the newprogram will give you1,980SkyMiles basedona$396 ticket price. A $430dollar ticket to LaGuar-dia Airport in New YorkCity will currently getyou 1,170 SkyMiles andthat figure jumps to 2,150under the new program.

However, long-haulflights are an entirelydifferent story.

Fly from Cvg to Los

Angelesnow for$404 andyou’ll get3,800 Sky-Miles-- butthe newprogramonly givesyou 2,020SkyMiles.A $416 non-

stop ticket to Las Vegascurrently gives you 3,356SkyMiles while the newprogram gives you just2,080 SkyMiles.

While Delta says it’slowering the miles re-quired for a frequent fly-er ticket, the economyclass 25,000 mile ticketwon’t change.

But, therewill bemoremileage levels added toan economy class domes-tic ticket.

It can cost you 25,000,35,000, 40,000, 50,000 or65,000 points. SkyMilespoints needed for someoverseas award ticketswill see the points re-quired for some levels godown a little.

One thing that isn’tchanging is the way youearn those all-importantMedallion Miles. Thatwill still be based on thedistance flown.

So, themoremiles youfly, the higher Medallionranking you’ll get – andcan then earnmoremilesper dollar paid under thenew program.

Another change in theprogram allows you topaymiles and cash for anairline ticket. If, for in-stance, you don’t have35,000 points to pay for a

ticket, you can pay 25,000points plus $159. Thatway you’re paying $159dollars for 10,000 points,which equals $1.59 centseach.

Delta will also allowyou to buy one-wayaward tickets starting at12,500miles for domestictravel andCanada. That’shalf the miles requiredfor a 25,000 mile econo-my class ticket.

Under the new plan,Delta says more awardseats will be available atthe lowest redemptionlevels – and you’ll be ableto use a new award calen-dar to search dates forthe lowest award ticketsavailable.

Bottomline,Deltapas-sengers will lose out oncollecting SkyMiles onlong-haul flights, butCin-cinnati passengers willfinally get someaddition-al compensation forshort-haul flights withthe highest fares in thenation.
