BATAVIA TOWNSHIP — Morethan 40 years after it opened,the ever expanding MercyHealth Clermont Hospital con-tinues to play a key role inBata-via Township and neighboringcommunities.

“It’s had a huge impact,” saidMatt Van Sant, president andCEO of the Clermont CountyChamber of Commerce. “Froma direct standpoint, there arehundreds of jobs there, and thathas a huge effect on the localeconomy.There’salso therippleeffect, the additional jobs creat-ed, the need for banks to makedeposits and houses that arebuilt.”

Van Sant described MercyHealth, with its economic im-pact and number of volunteersin Clermont County, as “a keyplayer in theEast Sidemarket.”

Last year, the Mercy HealthClermont Hospital undertook a$2.5millionexpansionandreno-

vation of its emergency depart-ment. That project was de-signed to improve efficiencyand treat patients faster at ahigh level of care.

In June, the Mercy HealthClermont Hospital opened an18,000-square foot newly reno-vated behavioral health facility.The 24-bed facility is designedto offer a comprehensive ap-proach to behavioral healthcare that previously didn’t ex-ist. It offers acute care, partialhospitalization and intensiveoutpatient programs in a safesetting that promotes healing.

Clermont County SheriffA.J. Rodenberg said the latterproject has likely helped hisdeputies becausemore patientswithmentalhealth issuescanbeheld for observation so thatthey’renot outwanderingaboutthe community.

Rodenberg said his depart-ment gets calls “from time totime” when someone acts out atthe hospital’s emergency de-partment. But overall, he said

his agency has not seen any in-creased calls for service withthe expansions, and he said thehospital has benefited the com-munity.

Batavia Township Adminis-

trator Rex Parsons said thetownship does not receive taxdollars from the hospital be-cause that facility, as a nonprof-it, is tax exempt. However, byemploying township residents

in the Clermont hospital it hasprovided indirect economicbenefits.

“Hopefully, during the reno-

ANDERSON FACILITY EXPANDINGMercy Health - Anderson Hospital recently celebrated its 30th anniversary. The hospital,

which is at 7500 State Road in Anderson Township opened its doors August 1984 as an ex-tension of Our Lady of Mercy Hospital in Mariemont.While the Anderson location celebrated three decades of operation, the Mercy Health -

Rookwood Medical Center celebrated its one-year anniversary. The facility, which is at 4101Edwards Road in Oakley, began operation in the summer of 2013.Both facilities have had an impact on their respective communities.“The hospital is a viable part of the economy and (the) sustainable growth of a communi-

ty,” said Jeff Graham, president of the Mercy Health east market.Mercy Health - Anderson Hospital is in the midst a $70 million expansion that began in

2013. The project includes expanded parking at the facility, atrium renovations and construc-tion of a new five-story patient tower that will house 90 private rooms and incorporate69,327 square feet of renovations to the existing hospital.The project, which will be completed in 2016, also involves expansion and renovation of

the intensive care unit as well as renovation of the obstetrics and family birthing center.Graham said Mercy Health has had “a long-running partnership”with Anderson Town-

ship and the Forest Hills Local School District.Students at Nagel Middle School helped in the design of both the parking lot as well as a

family waiting room, that is also part of the expansion project.“The impact of that facility and the medical office buildings have been tremendous,” said

Steve Sievers, assistant administrator of operations for Anderson Township. “The hospitalwas a springboard for many of the developments along the Five Mile corridor.”Sievers said the hospital is one of the largest employers in the area.“It has been a development and quality of life driver (in the township),” he said.Nanette Bentley, director of public relations for Mercy Health, said the Mercy Health -

Rookwood Medical Center was built to meet needs at that specific location, which serves thecommunities of Oakley, Hyde Park, Mt. Lookout, Norwood and Mariemont.“There wasn’t any conveniently located health care (facility) there, so we built the emer-

gency department to meet consumer demand,” said Bentley.The facility is 24,000 square feet and houses an emergency department, physician offices

and an imaging department.

4-H youth development educa-tor. “Wewant thestudents toseethe concepts firsthand. The les-

sons from this class come fullcircle in other theme daysthroughout the year, like gov-ernment and economics.”

Students began the tour atPine Lane Soaps with ownersMartha Enriquez, Becky Jonesand Patty Fix and went on toAuxier Farm to learn aboutsmall and large farmoperationsin thecounty, respectively.Bothfarms are in Batavia.

“Many of the students arenot aware agriculture has animpact in the county, and thistour visually shows both the ur-ban and rural sides of the coun-ty,” Royalty said.

From there, Mayor MaryAnn Lefker welcomed them toWilliamsburg with a tour and astop at Harmony Hill.

When Milford’s 22-man sen-iorclass looksbackon itsSeniorNight, itwill lookbackwithfondmemories as the Eagles pulledoff a stunning 20-17 upset of de-fending state champion Love-land on a freezing cold, windyand rainy Friday night. On anight thatcanonlybedefinedasagreat teameffort, itwasoneofthe youngest Eagles playing therole of hero as sophomore kick-er Zach Laudermilk kicked agame-winning 21-yard fieldgoal with only two seconds re-maining to send Milford to itsfirst win over the Tigers sincethe final game of the 2007 sea-son.

Both teams had a lot on theline entering the night as Mil-ford was playing for its first.500 final record since 2009,with Loveland looking to shoreup a Division II playoff spot.But at night’s end, it was the Ea-gles enjoying the spoils of vic-toryastheyfinishtheseason5-5overall and 3-4 in Eastern Cin-cinnati Conference play. Love-landmeanwhile,will likelymissthe playoffs after falling to 6-4overall and 5-2 in ECC play.

In his final high school start,Milford senior quarterbackDrewAshcraft playedarguablyone of his best games, finishingthe night with a career-high 158yards rushing, while connect-ing on 9 of 15 passes for 102yards. The Eagles also got an

Milford High School’s girlswater polo team came close topulling off a state champion-ship Oct. 17-18 at Mason HighSchool. The Eagles finishedfourth at the Ohio Water PoloState Championship, raisingthe bar for the 2015 campaign.

“Our state showing thisyear pretty much sets the ex-pectation for next year. Thegirlswant the title really bad,”said first-year head coachKevin Metzger. “They workhard and arewell deserving ofit. Next year will be a goodyear.”

The boys finished 11th attheir state tournament atWor-thington High School Oct. 24-25. The girls team finishedwith a 23-10 overall record,while the boys finished17-19-1.The girls will graduate threeseniors, while the boys willlose just one player to gradua-tion. Replacing Sydney Con-nor, Lindsey Matulis, CaraSnell, andPaulKeeferwill beachallenge, but the Eagles areexcited about the prospectsfor both squads in 2015.

“Next season is going to beanother great and successfulseason. We have young teamson both sides and a lot of roomto grow,” said Metzger. “Notonly are these teams young,but we have a lot of talent.”

Sophomore Skyler Fon-taine led thegirls teamonbothends of the pool. Junior TylerKaran was a defensive play-maker for the boys. Keefer’sspeed helped on both ends fortheboysandwill bedifficult toreplace next year.

“Both of my teams werevery consistent,” said Metzg-er. “Our boys team knows howto work together now. Thatteamwork and a little bit of

skills growth will hopefullylead them to the top four. Wehave a lot of talent and it willnot go to waste next year.”

The state tournament had anew format this season, whichprovided more excitement.Every team in the state com-peted with a chance to win.Teams played the same num-ber of games, win or lose, andthe final tally after the conclu-sion of each weekend’s match-es determined the final staterankings. ForMilford, thenewtournament style was a posi-tive.

“I like the new tournamentformat. It allows for all theteams to fairly enter the statefinals,” said Metzger. “Also, itadds that ‘March Madness’feel to it and gives the tourna-ment a little bit more intensi-ty.”

With Fontaine and goalieEmily Noll returning to leadthe girls next season, expecta-tions will be high. The boyssquad should be much im-proved, with Karan, MaxWoodson, Charlie Hausfeld,and goalie Kane Gormley re-turning. Both teams enter thepostseason with optimism.

“The girls have received atrophy for water polo since2011.” said Metzger.

A8 • MILFORD-MIAMI ADVERTISER • NOVEMBER 5, 2014

We have been residents ofMiami Township and havelived adjacent to the Diek-meyer farm property for 26years.

We recently received thenotice regarding the proposedrezoning and development ofthat property. We believe thatthere is a much better use ofthat ground to serve the needsof the large population in theheart of Miami Township thanthat which the HPA Group hasproposed.

There are a number ofnegative aspects to their pro-posal, such as crowding ofhouses on small lots withshort setback from the street,severe traffic congestion,school overcrowding, lack ofgreen space, serious runoff

and drainagecontrol prob-lems and theoverall degra-dation of thequality of lifefor all sur-rounding resi-dents, to namejust a few.

However,possibly theworst aspect

of their proposal is that it failsto address what must be con-sidered as the highest andbest use of that land for thepublic good of the township.That has to be considered tobe as park land.

At present there are noparks in the Branch Hill-Guin-ea Pike corridor, yet this is the

most heavily populated seg-ment of the township. TheDiekmeyer farm property isnearly ideally located to servethis large population. It ispossible to reach it from mostsubdivisions northwest of italong Branch Hill Guinea Pikeas well as from many sub-divisions to the southeastusing only side streets withouthaving to use that main arteryof traffic. Consequently, bothadults and children through-out those subdivisions couldbike, skateboard, roller bladeor walk to a park there inrelative safety.

The Diekmeyer farm is oneof only two large tracts ofland in this region availablefor development. This is thelast chance for the township

to make any provision for apark in this area. It would beirresponsible and tantamountto malfeasance for the MiamiTownship Rural Zoning Com-mission and the Miami Town-ship Trustees to permit thisland to become instead a bur-den on the infrastructure ofthe township.

A densely packed neigh-borhood of starter homes willcreate many difficult issues inthe area and degrade the qual-ity of life for everyone livingnearby. On the other hand, acombination of a 30- to 40-acre park with a low densitydevelopment of R-1 zoningsize lots on the remaining50-60 acre parcel would addvalue and enhance the entireregion.

We understand the fundingwould be a hurdle. Please lookat the nearby Symmes Town-ship Hopewell Meadows Parkfor a nearby example of whatwe envision. It is a smallerfacility and lacks a few ameni-ties that ought to be includedsuch as a dog park, sand vol-leyball courts, etc..., but it is awonderful example of the sortof park that Miami Townshipshould build as a centerpiecein the heart of the township.

Let’s not lose the chance toimprove the Miami Townshippark system and make thetownship a better place for itscitizens to live.

Tim Sander is a retired chemist, labmanager & IT specialist, and a33-year resident of Miami Township.

Park is better use of Diekmeyer property

Oct. 29 questionDid you or will you vote early

this year, or will you wait untilElection Day?Why?

“I have never understoodearlyvoting. Iworkedasapilotfor 46 years, and never had aproblemwith getting an absen-tee ballot. Early votingmade itpossible for me to go down tothe Board of Elections ratherthan mail in the ballot, andwatch the lines of people beingbrought in with people to ‘help’them get registered and vote.Many were quite open aboutbeing students not from thearea, and quite possibly regis-tered to vote elsewhere. Mademe wish for a purple inkwell,where people could receive amark that said they had al-ready voted, but could only beusedonce. Ibelievevoterfraud

is one of the largest issues fac-ing our Republic this electioncycle.”

D. B.

“I did already vote throughan absentee ballot. I startedthisoneyearwhenIknewIwasgoing to be out of town. butwhen it became available as a

means of early voting I optedfor thismethod inalmost everyelection. It gives me time to sitwith the ballot and then taketimetodosomeresearchon thecandidates and issues so I canmake as informed adecision aspossible.”

C.S.

“I do not believe thereshould be the option of votingearly. If you truly care aboutthe electoral process and valuethe results of yourchoices thenyouwillmake thisdayandyourvote a priority, not an inconve-nience so easily replaced.

“We’ve created an entiregeneration of people (yes vot-ers) who really don’t care whois elected unless they (the vot-er) can somehowgetmorepub-lic assistance. But they’ll votetoday because they saw a bill-

board or got a postcard orheard any one of a dozen TV orradio adds every half hour, onthe same day they decide tocast their early ballot.

“Election day is always thefirstTuesday inNovember, andwe have from 6:30 a.m. until7:30p.m. (13hours) toget to ourpolling places to cast our votes.Is this really so hard that wedon’t even need a decent ex-cuse anymore (i.e.military du-ty)? And by the way, check myIDandeveryoneelse’s too.Asalegal citizen of these UnitedStates I have a right to votehere, a right to choose my rep-resentation, and a right toshape my future.”

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONThere is a proposal in the Ohiolegislature to keep schoolsopen year-round. Is this a goodidea? Why or why not?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers to rmaloney@communitypress.com with Ch@troom in thesubject line.

Cincinnati’s Union Termi-nal, which houses the MuseumCenter, has been mentioned agreat deal lately.

Although it is an architec-tural landmark full of inter-esting exhibits and a must seesight for out-of-town visitors,for families it is also a place toshare memories of earlierdays and make plans for fu-ture outings.

The Cincinnati HistoryMuseum has Cincinnati inMotion, sometimes called thetrain display. However it isCincinnati in miniature whichfeatures models of CrosleyField, Union Terminal andmany neighborhoods as theylooked in the early 20th centu-ry.

On a family visit, tell aboutvisits made to the CincinnatiZoo in its earlier days and, ifold enough, trips to CrosleyField, Coney Island or LunkenAirport when it was the mainairport for Cincinnati. Nearthe end of the museum, thereis Public Landing, a repro-duced river town includingthe Queen of the West river-boat. Costumed interpretersmay be there to add informa-tion.

In the Museum of Scienceand Natural History are op-portunities to plan for futureoutings. The mound builderexhibit could lead to a visit tothe intriguing Serpent Moundor to Fort Ancient to see Na-tive American earthworksabout 2,000 years old. A good

opportunity tosharethoughts andmemories is atthe space agedisplay.

It is smalland an excel-lent opportuni-ty to expandon it since itoccurred dur-ing our life

time. That could lead to afuture visit to the Neil Arm-strongMuseum.

Next, there is the popularCave and Ice Age that couldlead to a visit to MammothCave. The cave has a wheel-chair accessible path. Ofcourse, Dino Hall is popularand it is near the exit to themuseum.

Duke Energy Children’sMuseum, in the lower level, ismeant for those 10 and under.Energy Zone andWater Worksare popular areas as well asTheWoods, an area for chil-dren 8 and above which fea-tures a new aquarium. It maya lead to a trip over to Ken-tucky’s Newport Aquarium.

In addition to its three mu-seums, it contains the five-story Robert D. Lindner Fam-ily Omnimax Theater, specialexhibits and Tower A, theoriginal main control tower.For the train fan of all ages,Tower A is like a train mu-seumwhere they can get aview of the tracks still in usetoday, and explore the arti-

facts showing Union Termi-nal’s rich history.

On Nov. 7, the annual Holi-day Junction will open. It willhave the large, popular, modeltrain display, part of whichwas the Duke Energy displayformerly located downtown.Holiday Junction also has akids' train ride and SantaClaus.

If there are visiting Redsor baseball fans, as you leave

the Union Terminal, you canpoint out that the 1869 RedStockings, the first, openly, allprofessional and best team ofits time, played near the bot-tom of the fountain. There is amarker at the bottom of thefountain near the north park-ing lot that gives more detail.

Ugh. I am already dreadingthe upcoming winter months.Who among us remembers thispast January and February alltoo well? I know that I do. We

are certainlyfortunate tolive in beauti-ful ClermontCounty, butwith that privi-lege comecertain season-al inevitabil-ities. So, aswe’re tryingdesperately toavoid thinkingabout those

frigid days ahead, we need toget our head out of the prover-bial “beach sand” and prepareourselves for what’s to come.

Being mindful of our sur-roundings can help to mini-mize the incidents of slips,trips and falls, as well as avoid-ing the danger of hypothermiain the cold weather months.Older adults are more suscep-tible to hypothermia, whichoccurs when too much heatescapes from the body.

So, before the weather out-side gets too frightful, givesome thought to these tips andprepare for the fun ahead.

»Dress warmly and keepdry.

» Organize emergency sup-plies. Travel with emergencyitems, such as a blanket, warmclothing, sand or cat litter, ashovel, an ice scraper andalways a working cell phone.

» To conserve energy, heatonly those rooms that you use.Close off the attic, garage,basement, spare bedrooms orstorage areas. But, you shouldkeep your thermostat set to atleast 65 degrees to preventhypothermia.

» Remember good nutrition.Food provides the fuel we needto keep warm.

»Wear a hat to protectagainst heat loss since close tohalf of all body heat is lostthrough the head.

HAVEA HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON

CE-0000609032

Yesterday my throatand head were stuffedup and the last thing Iwanted to do was workin the herb garden.Mother Nature wascooperating with theweather, so I knew Ihad to start getting the

gardencleanedup forwinter. Iwas grum-blingsince mytaskseemed toloom solarge. Theweeds hadsprung up

just about everywhere.I was taking my gardenplaque down when Istopped to really readit once again. My atti-tude changed immedi-ately. I thought you’denjoy seeing the verseI read that put me in apositive frame of mind.Not only that, but whenI cut back the eucalyp-tus, thyme and hore-hound, those powerfulherbs that help withrespiratory ailments,my head and throatcleared up nicely. Les-son learned!

Helen Sarky’sLebanesevegetarian greenbean stew

I love this recipefrom Lebanese friend,Helen Sarky, an An-

derson Township read-er. A version of thesebeans are going to beserved at the upcoming“A taste of Lebanon”held at St. Anthony’s ofPadua church on Vic-tory Parkway. Thefeast is on Sunday, Nov.23, from noon to 6 p.m.and the menu will alsocontain kibbee (themain meat dish of Leb-anon), hummus, vege-tarian falafel, stuffedcabbage and grape leafrolls, among other tra-ditional favorites.These are generations-old recipes, treasuredheirlooms. They’ll alsohave dancing and mu-sic and carryout, aswell. Check out the sitewww.stanthonyofpaduachurch.com orgive them a call at (513)961-0120. I’m alreadyhungry…

1 pound fresh orfrozen green beans, cutinto 2” lengths

2 tablespoons oliveoil

1/2 cup sliced thinlyonions

1 tablespoon mincedgarlic (opt)

1/4 teaspoon groundcinnamon or to taste

Salt and pepper totaste

2 teaspoons choppedfresh mint

1-1/2 cups diced to-matoes

1 cup water or chick-en stock

1 tablespoon lemonjuice

Heat oil over medi-um heat until hot. Addonions and sauté untilcaramelized (3 min-utes); add garlic andsauté another 2 min-utes. Stir in cinnamon,salt, pepper and mintand keep stirring. Addtomatoes, water andlemon juice and keepstirring. Add beans andbring to a boil. Reduceto a simmer, cover panand cook until tender,about 20 minutes.Serve over a bed ofcooked rice.

Cauliflower pureeAccording to the

foodies, cauliflower isthe new kale. I justharvested some Jeru-salem artichokes fromthe garden and roastedthose with some cauli-flower and Brusselssprouts. They were adelicious and differentside dish. But you knowwhat? Cauliflower canstand on its own as anice puree to go along-side that Thanksgivingturkey. Lower in carbsthan potatoes, this pu-ree can be done severalhours ahead and re-heated.

2 heads cauliflower,stems and leaves re-moved, florets cut up

Lemon juice to taste1/2 stick butter or

substitute or more totaste

Half & half or whip-ping cream - can be lowfat half & half

Salt and pepper totaste

Chopped parsley forgarnish

Either steam thecauliflower or cook inboiling salted wateruntil soft but notmushy. Drain verywell, return to pot andshake over high heat toget rid of any excess

moisture. Now eitherput it in processor orbeat until smooth inmixer. If using proces-sor, pulse until it’ssmooth as you like.Beat in lemon juice,butter and half & halfuntil it’s the consis-tency you want. Usu-ally 1/2 cup of liquid issufficient, but it de-

pends upon the size ofthe cauliflower. Sprin-kle with parsley forcolor.
