For most sports injuries, it’seasytotellwhat’swrongwiththeathlete: Just look and see wherethe cast or the bandage is ap-plied.

With head injuries, the prob-lems haven’t always been obvi-ous, but the effects can bemuchworse than a sprained knee or abusted hand.

lights, computer screens;a lot of audio and visual in-put can exacerbate theirheadaches. They’ll rou-tinely have a difficult timeconcentrating, and so therest from cognitive brainfunction from the types ofthings going on in schooleverydaycanbereally im-portant in concussions

that are more serious.”Another important fac-

tor in recovery is getting agood neurological evalua-tion. DesJardins said sub-tle symptoms, such asheadaches or balance is-sues, can go unnoticed ingeneral examinations.

He said athletes return-ing to play while any con-cussion symptoms remainputs them at risk of “cata-strophic brain swellingand death after a secondimpact.”

Thelesssevere,butstillpotentially devastating,risks of secondary impactinclude chronic head-aches, chronic sleep dis-turbance,depression,poorfunction in school, atten-tion disorders, and otherpermanent issues requir-ing ongoingmedical care.

A concussion-relatedbill, KRS 160.445, waspassed and enacted by theKentucky State Legisla-ture in2012.TheKentuckyHighSchoolAthleticAsso-ciation, which governs allhigh school sports in thestate, previously had aconcussion policy in placebut only at the high schoollevel.

What they were able todo with the approved bill,however,was“hardcode itin the statute,” saidKHSAA Commissioner

Julian Tackett.Tackett said the legisla-

tion also includes a provi-sion that anytime during agame if the signs andsymptoms of a concussionare present coaches or of-ficials are to send thechildout of the game for medi-calevaluation. Ifamedicalprofessional is not pre-sent, Tackett said it will beassumed a player exhibit-ing signs and symptomsofa concussion has a concus-sion.

The KHSAA, in con-junction with the Ken-tucky Medical Associa-tion, has promoted a websitewww.KyConcussions.com, to help with the issue. Ithas an online training pro-gram about head injuriesthat all thecoaches inKen-tucky have to take.

“Sowe’re trying to real-ly increase awarenessamong coaching staff(and) by school adminis-trators thataconcussion isserious business,” DesJar-dins said.

Such precautions are afar cry from the playingdays of University of Cin-cinnati orthopedistDr.An-gelo Colosimo – a formerBengals team doctor whowas a high school and col-lege player in his ownright. Colosimo has hadtwo sons play football forBeechwoodHigh School.

“When Iplayed, yougotdrilled, you didn’t evenknowwhere you were andyou went back to the hud-dle and carried the ballagain,”Colosimosaid. “It’samazing where the sci-ence has gone when youlook at the long-term dam-age of traumatic brain in-juries. It affects you longterm. The idea is to limitthat.

“You can’t play (foot-ball) without contact. Ifyou play this game, you’re

going to get your headdinged. It’s going to hap-pen. What we’re trying todo is to limit the damagethat’s done.”

Part of the reason con-cussionshave increased inthe consciousness of thesports community is be-cause of recent lawsuitsfiled against the NationalFootballLeaguebyformerplayerswhohavesufferedfrom ailments such as de-mentia. In recent years,most professional leagueshave also developed theirown rules to further pro-tect players, strengthen-ing restrictions on whenathletescanreturn tocom-petition.

HAMILTON COUNTY —While concussions mayget the most attentionwhen it comes to injuries,they account for just 14percent of all youthsports injuries (age 19and under) according to astudydonebyUSAToday.

The study analyzedyouth sports injuries in2011 and 2012 and deter-mined the three mostcommon sports injuriesare sprains/strains, frac-tures and contusions.

When being more spe-cific, Oxford PhysicalTherapy’s Liz Reis saidinjuries to the ankle, an-terior cruciate ligament(ACL) and the shoulder’sare the most common in-juries she sees as a phys-ical therapist amonghighschool athletes.

In today’s world of ex-pensive shoes, the argu-ment has come aboutwhether or not a shoe cancause an injury. The per-ception is you see moreACL tears today than youdid 10-20 years ago whenshoes weren’t as ad-vanced, but Reis believesthere are a variety of fac-tors that play into any in-jury.

“There is a push for amore natural shoe,” shesaid. “From a physicaltherapist’sperspective, ifyour foot mechanics areoff, then it’sgoingtoworkup the chain and causeproblems. … There is norhyme or reason as towhen thesepeoplearede-veloping these injuries,but in theory,mostpeopleneed a good, supportiveshoe.”

Reis has seen an in-crease in Iliotibial BandSyndrome, or more com-monly known as theITSB, in high school ath-letes. Also known as“Runner’sKnee,” accord-ing to runnersworld.comit occurs when the ITband, a ligament thatruns down the outside ofthe thigh from the hip tothe shin, is tight or in-flamed.

The problem with theinjury is it can be hiddenwith the use of anti-in-flammatories and manyathletes get back to theirrespective sport beforethe injury is fully healed.

“The injury is not somuch worrisome, but itcan bedifficult to rehab,”Reis said. “The (IT band)crosses the knee, so ev-ery time we bend ourknee the band actuallyslips under the bone andit’s just a repetitive inju-ry. People just need togive it time to heal, restand strengthen the othermuscles.”

One trend Reis hasseen lately is an increasein hamstring strains inyounger athletes. Thereason is factually un-known, but Reis has heropinion.

“I think it goes alongwith people gaining anunderstandingofstretch-ing andwarming up,” shesaid. “Some kids as theyaregoing throughgrowthspurts, their bones areelongating and the mus-cles are being forced tostretch out at the sametime. So the kids are try-ing to stretch and usingthese muscles when theyare working out, so theystart to get some strain in

themuscle. I think that iswhere a lot of these ham-string strains are comingin as they go throughthese growth spurts.”

ACL tears, ITSB andhamstring problems arejust three of hundreds ofinjuries that occur eachhigh school sports sea-son, but the prevention isall the same: Rest, addingprevention and strength-eningexercisesandprop-er technique top the listof way to prevent inju-ries.

“These statistics don’thave to be part of thegame if we take somesimple precautions,”Kate Carr of Safe KidsWorldwide said as part ofthe USA Today study.

story for survivors is howthey try togoback to“nor-mal,” but the experienceis life altering.

Being on the team isabout moving on, but notforgetting about breastcancer, White said.

“We’re not complain-ers, it’s not a pity party,”she said. “We fought thebattle and won.”

Part of the team’s mis-sion is to give back to peo-ple fighting breast cancernow.

Money raised at thedragon boat festival willgo to St. Elizabeth to helppay for everything fromtransporting breast can-cerpatients to thedoctor’soffice and hospital for ap-pointments to mammo-grams, she said.

The Thorough-Breastshave participated in otherdragon boat racing com-petitions this year inMontgomery, Ala., Chi-cago and Akron, Ohio,White said. Last year theteam traveled to Canada,

Back-to-school event helps familiesA steady morning rain

couldn’t dampen the spirits ofmore than 2,600 children and1,500parents andguardianswhoturnedout atTurfwayParkAug.3, for the second CincinnatiDreamWorks Give Back ... toSchool event.

The event, which drew sup-port and volunteers from 16sponsors, provided back-to-school supplies, hygiene items,and clothing to children fromlow-income families in Boone,Kenton, and Campbell counties.Within two-and-a-half hours,1,600 backpacks had been givenaway to children enrolled fromkindergarten through eighth-grade.

The rain lasted about as longas the distribution. After theskies cleared, every child andadult had the opportunity to en-joy free donuts, pizza, hot dogs,hamburgers, and treats, andvol-unteers, parents, and childrenplayed games together on theTurfwaylawn.Facepaintingandtwobouncehousesprovedpopu-lar, as did a special appearancebyTychus,aservicedogintrain-ing.

Cross country season is rightaround the corner. Here is alook at some local teams:

Campbell Countyboys/girls

MikeBankemperreturns forhis14th season as head coach ofthe Camels.

The boys team was third inthe region last year, qualifyingfor the 3A statemeet. The Cam-els return five starters in MarkChaplin, Kevin Lackey, ThomasComer, Peter Glenn and ParkerYounce. Joe McGrath is the topnewer runner to watch. Chaplinwas the top Camel at state, fin-ishing 60th. Chaplin was 15th atregionals last year and Lackey11th.

On the girls team, JennahFlairty represented the Camelat state, finishing 33rd overallafter placing fourth in the re-gion. She returns for her junioryear, and is joined in the list of

returning starters by KaraPangburn and Annah Johnson.

The Camels start things offin the Ryle Invitational Aug. 31.

Newport CentralCatholic boys

Longtime veteran DavidUeding returns for his 35th sea-son coaching cross country atNewCath. His team finishedthird in the conference last sea-son, fifth in the regional andeighth in theClass1Astatemeeta year ago.

He returns five starterswithpostseasonexperience in seniorGriffin Jordan; juniors CollinWalker, Alex Jones and BannonSeiter; and sophomore SamuelKaelin. Walker was the team’stop finisher in the state meet,finishing 85th a year ago. Seiterfinished 28th in regionals. Jor-dan was 32nd in the region and98th at state.

Junior Kenny Ballard, soph-omore Josh Reaves and sopho-more Dominic Ciafardini havestrong junior varsity experi-

ence and are running close to-gether on the course in the off-season. Ueding expects them tobuild a competitive front sevenfor the Thoroughbreds.

Depth will be important inthe highly competitive local re-gion in November. Ueding feelsthe region has five of the topteams in the state so getting tothe state meet is always a chal-lenge. NCC will run in the Rylemeet Aug. 31 and the GrantCounty meet Sept. 7.

NewCath girlsThe Thoroughbreds had

their best team in the past 10years in 2012 and have a goal oftaking the Best Team Ever titlein 2013.

Led by Caitlyn Drohan, whofinished 44th in the Class 1Astate meet to represent New-Cath’s first girls state qualifierin five years, the Thorough-breds have six returning start-ers for head coach Dave Mey-ers. Others include StephanieLewis, Mariah Drohan, Casey

Kohls, Hannah Bielski andAlyssaBlanchet. Other runnersto watch are Olivia Schadler,JennaHansman,Mallory Sykesand Hannah Cox.

Drohan was 18th in the re-gional along theway to earn herberth at state.

A deep NCC team is ready totry to make big strides.

“If they can stay healthy, ourfront three runners should be

able to compete for top15 in theregion,” Meyers said. “Thisputs a little pressure on the restof the team to work harder toround out our scoring five andgive us a chance of placing wellas a team. The girls realize thatthis could be our best seasonever, so thatexcitement isgoingto keep them focused andwork-ing hard.”

SIDELINES

The College of MountSt. Joseph is eager to startthe 2013 football season.WhentheLionsbeginplayon Sept. 7, the disappoint-ing 2012 season will becompletely behind them.

Last season, the pro-gram finished with a los-ing record in conferenceplay for the first timesince 2008 and just thesecond time since 2001.Five teamsfinishedaheadof Mount St. Joe in theHeartland Collegiate Ath-letic Conference stand-ings. The Lions’ 4-6 over-all recordmarked thepro-gram’s first losing seasonsince the winless 2001campaign. The seasonended with a 75-6 drub-bing at the hands of rivalThomas More College inthe Bridge Bowl.

“Coach Huber and theseniors don’t like talkingabout last year,” said sen-ior punter Greg Tabar(Colerain). “We are excit-edtomoveforward.We’replaying with a chip on ourshoulder this year.”

This year’s squad ispoised to bring Mount St.Joe back to its winningways. It will be a chal-lenge, as the Lions need toreplace All-Americanrunning back James Clayand a host of other start-ers.

“A lot of spots arewideopen,” said head coachRod Huber as his teamprepared for trainingcamp. “We’ve got a lot of

holes to fill.”Sophomore Cody

Meade will try to replaceClay, who led the nation inrushing with 212.4 yardsper game in 2012. JuniorJason Stinebaugh is themost experienced quar-terback on the roster andwill compete with fresh-men and transfers for thestarting nod. He complet-ed 21 of 64 passes withfour interceptions and ze-ro touchdowns as a back-up in 2012.

Whoever wins thestarting quarterback jobwill have somebig targetsin the passing game. 6’8”junior John Peters and6’5” senior Tyler Feine(Amelia) should win mostjump balls thrown theirway.

“We should be able toget those guys the ball inthe red zone,” said Huber.

The offensive line isled by senior BrandonChapman and juniorBrandon Keller. Seniorsafety Tyler Elrod leadsthe secondary, where hewill be joined by newstarters at both corner-back spots. Defensiveend/linebacker Adam Bi-gelow (Anderson) missedall of last season with aknee injury,butreturnsasa fifth-year senior. Nose-tackle Russell Turner an-chors the defensive line.The linebackers are themost experienced anddeepest groupondefense,with Konnor Blevins andGarrett Breiner return-ing.

Tabar’s leadership on

and off the field earnedhim national recognitionin 2012, when he wasnamed to the Allstate AF-CAGoodWorks TeamandtheCapital OneAcademicAll-District Team. Thiswill be the fourth straightseason he has started atpunter for the Lions.

TheLions open the sea-son on Sept. 7 at Augusta-na College. Following abye week, the Lions hostconference foe HanoverCollege on Sept. 21.

Only a select few Divi-sion III football programshave reached a pointwhere a 7-3 record androut of their biggest rivalis considered a disap-pointing season.

Thomas More Collegefinished 6-2 in the Presi-dents’ Athletic Confer-ence, but those two earlyseason losses preventedthe Saints from earning afifth straight playoffberth. A six-game win-ning streak to close outthe season was encourag-ing, but 2012 was still adisappointment for a pro-gram that has establisheditself as aperennial top 25team.

“When I think about it,it is good that we havesuch high expectations,”said head coach Jim Hil-vert. “When you set astandard like that, whenyou expect at least ninewins and a PAC champi-onship, less than that isnot good enough.”

The silver lining to lastyear was that the seniorswere the first class inyears to end the seasonwith a win. Consistentlyqualifying for the play-offs means that, unlesstheSaintswinthe32-teamtournament and StaggBowl championship, theyend the seasonwitha loss.Lastyear, theSaintsgot tofinish the season by set-tingall kindsof records ina 75-6 Bridge Bowl vic-tory over rival College ofMount St. Joseph.

“Everybody was hun-gry to finish off the sea-son on a high note,” saidsophomore free safetyKyle Fuller (Holy Cross).

Fuller is one of severalyoung starters on bothsides of the ball this year.He has learned from theupperclassmen who wereonce in his position andexpects tostep intoa lead-

ership role in just his sec-ond season at ThomasMore.

“Thecoachesdoagoodjob of preparing you for aleadership role,” saidFuller, who led HolyCross toastatechampion-ship two years ago. “Lastyear’s seniors left a lega-cy thatmade theprogramwhat it is and they reallypushedusunderclassmento make us better.”

The veteran leaders ofthe defense will help thenew starters adjust. De-fensive backs Jake Fish-burn (Elder) and AlexTaylor (Elder) and line-man Tyler Combs (High-lands) provide seniorleadership on the other-wise young defense.

“We are young on de-fense, but very fast,” saidHilvert. “This is one ofthe most athletic de-fenses I’ve had.”

The offense is led bythe return of junior run-ning back DominiqueHayden from injury andanother year of experi-ence for sophomore quar-

terback Jensen Geb-hardt, who went 6-1 aftertaking over as the starterlast year.

Thomas More has al-ways benefited from apipeline of local talentfromboth sides of the riv-er, but the recent rise ofNorthern Kentucky pro-grams like Cooper andCampbellCountyhaspro-videdtheSaintswithevenmore talented playerswho are accustomed towinning.

“With the talent wehave around here, it’s ahuge addition,” said Hil-vert.

The Saints open theseason on Sept. 7 at Cap-ital University. The homeopener is Sept. 28 againstWaynesburg University.The team is eager to getback to the playoffs andhopes to avoid last year’sslow start.

“We have some reallygood leaders,” said Hil-vert. “We’reexcited togetbackon the field andcom-pete.”

A publication of

The commonwealth of Ken-tucky is known for unparal-leled success on the basket-ball court, boasting two na-tional NCAA basketball cham-pionships in as many years.Educators and administratorshave been working hard toelevate academic success inthe commonwealth to thesame level, making strides toensure that our students areeffectively prepared for col-lege and career readiness.

While most of the nationhas embarked upon educationreform, Kentucky is at theforefront. This was evidencedJan. 10 as Gov. Steve Beshearannounced from the Capitolthat the 2012 EducationWeekQuality Counts Report in-dicated that Kentucky hadclimbed to 10th in the nation inits annual survey of states andtheir education of America’sstudents. This was furtherevidenced as our district/stateimplemented the new Com-mon Core Standards two

years ago,while manystates are stillpreparing forthe imple-mentation ofthese nationalstandards. Apart of con-tinued reform,Kentucky is inthe process of

implementing a new evalua-tion system referred to as theProfessional Growth and Ef-fectiveness System (PGES).

Kentucky, along with 36other states, requested awaiver exempting them fromthe No Child Left Behind leg-islation. In exchange, stateswill be required to includestudent growth as a part oftheir educators’ evaluations.The Professional Growth andEffectiveness System is basedon the work of Charlotte Dan-ielson and the results of theMeasures of Effective Teach-ing Study, conducted by the

Gates Foundation. Danielson’sFramework of Teaching fo-cuses on four areas: planningand preparation, classroomenvironment, instruction, andprofessional responsibilities.Teacher evaluations in Ken-tucky will also include a fiftharea, student growth.

The exact percentage, eachof these areas will receive inan evaluation, is yet to bedetermined as Kentucky con-tinues to pilot the new PGESwith limited numbers ofteachers during the 2013/14school year. This will be deter-mined prior to statewide im-plementation the followingyear. Todd Baldwin, with theKentucky Department ofEducation, states they are“going slow” to ensure they“get it right.” A shift in teach-er evaluations will includenumerous snapshot observa-tions in the classroom andspecific suggestions for pro-fessional growth.

It may be reasonable to

expect a certain level of ap-prehension surrounding anentirely new evaluation sys-tem. However, teachersshould be relieved to discoverthat the areas in which theywill be evaluated are areas inwhich they are already highlyengaged in and commit con-siderable time and thought toin Boone County. Parentsshould be relieved to knowthat our district is well aheadin key areas of the imple-mentation of the PGES in-cluding but not limited toadministrator walk-throughs,peer reviews, teacher self-evaluation, and frequent mon-itoring of student progress.

The Hope Street Group, anon-profit organization,whose goal is to provide abetter America, is involvingits 21Kentucky teacher fel-lows to elicit the opinions,concerns and ideas of Ken-tucky teachers regarding thisnew system. Hope Street,recognizing that great poten-

tial exists here, is working tofacilitate dialogue throughoutthe commonwealth, bringingthe Kentucky Department ofEducation, the Kentucky Edu-cation Association, legisla-tors, and educators togetherto further strengthen Ken-tucky students’ learning. TheHope Street Group recognizesthe importance of collabora-tion and communication be-tween the groups.

The new PGES provides anopportunity to empowerteachers to further improvetheir students’ learning, asthey continue to enhance theircraft. Working cooperatively,Kentucky’s students andteachers will continue to ele-vate their “educationalgame,” ensuring that studentsare college and career ready.

Teacher fellows workingto strengthen education

Recently, God placed averse inmy path three timesin one day. Now thatmay notseem significant for some, butforme, the verse’s relevancetomy current requests to Godfor direction gaveme pause.To top that, it wasn’t a verse Iwas familiar with, and I cameacross it in three very differ-ent ways.

“The eyes of the Lordsearch the whole earth inorder to strengthen thosewhose hearts are fully com-mitted toHim.” 2 Chronicles16:9.

During a timewhen I wasquestioningGod’s directionformy life and a pathHewascallingme to take, He said tome in this verse, “If you don’tdo it, I will find someonewhowill.” At that point, I submit-ted. I submitted because I longto be obedient, just as a childlongs to be obedient to hisparents. And I submitted be-cause I wantedwhat the versepromised; to be strengthened.

And I was! That step offaith and step of obedienceprovidedme a rest inmyheart, and rejuvenation formy soul that I had beensearching for, for some time.

“The third time’s thecharm.”Well it may not be the“charm,” but I’ve been aroundlong enough to know thatwhenGod speaks somethingtomy heart for the third time,I’d better listen.

I’ve also finally reached apoint when I really feel like IknowwhenGod is speaking.Isn’t it so frustrating whenwepray and pray and pray aboutsomething, only to wonder ifwe’re receiving an answer?Trustme, I know, I’ve beenthere too.

Forme, I found the answer

in restless-ness; yesrestlessness.When I amexperiencingunrest, IknowGod isworking.Whydowe getrestless?Webecome rest-less because

we’re ready for somethingnew; a new job, a new haircut,etc. God allows restlessness toshow us that He is ready forus tomove to something newas well. Restlessness formealso usuallymeans that Godhas already provided the di-rection; He is just waiting forme to take the next step.

However, each time I expe-rienced the unrest, the direc-tion Godwas callingme into,was not where I wanted orintended to go. Yet, each time,the destination wasmorebeautiful and fulfilling than Icould have ever imagined.

If you struggle todaywithunrest, know this; God has aplan; it is a good plan; it leadsto success, and not harm; andwhen you get there, Godwillbe there.

Take a step toward obe-dience today through prayerand praise to God and remem-ber this; “Do not despise thesesmall beginning, for the Lordrejoices to see the work be-gin.” Zechariah 4:10.

“I am happy to join withyou today in what will godown as the greatest demon-stration for freedom in thehistory of our nation.”

That’s how Martin LutherKing opened his “I Have aDream” speech on Aug. 28,1963. National civil rightsleaders had called for 100,000to march on Washington forfreedom and jobs soon afterPresident Kennedy sent hiscivil rights bill to CapitolHill. Cincinnati activistshelped King’s predictioncome true.

Abysmal race relationsdefined the South and muchof the North. Cincinnati, justnorth of state-mandated seg-regation, had made somenotable gains. African-Amer-ican leaders had pressureddowntown restaurants andConey Island to integrate,and were now focused onending discriminatory hous-ing.

Local leaders like Clyde“Jimmy” Vinegar of CORE,William Bowen of theNAACP, and future Cincin-nati Mayor Ted Berry led acontingent of about 500 to thenation’s capital. “The marchwill give witness that theNegro is united in America,”Berry told the Enquirer in1963. The Rev. Fred Shuttles-worth had moved here, butcontinued the intense fight inhis native Birmingham.

A mix of African-Amer-ican citizens, white clergyand others boarded a special-ly arranged train at UnionTerminal. They packed twobox lunches and prepared forpossible violence. They sangfreedom songs along the way,and picked up additionaldemonstrators near Ports-

mouth andAshland,Kentucky.

“The trainride gave ussuch a warm,friendlyfeeling,”recalls Patri-cia Hogue(widow ofUniversityof Cincinnati

Bearcat basketball playerPaul Hogue) and a senior atCentral State University atthe time. Donations to thelocal NAACP enabled her toattend. “It was the mostwonderful experience.”

It is a dream deeply root-ed in the American dream.

Would this crew facedanger? Would the marchhave any real impact? Couldthe civil rights bill becomelaw? The Cincinnati Postand Times Star editorial-ized, “We favor the publicaccommodations section ofthe civil rights bill but thinkreform will come almost asfast without a law as with it.”Both of Ohio’s senators,Frank Lausche and StephenYoung, declined an invitationto attend. The uncertainty iswhat made it a dream.

“We were the first train toarrive at Union Station,”recalls Hogue, “and we weresome of the first to make it tothe Washington Monument.”They got a close view of Pe-ter, Paul, and Mary, HarryBelafonte, and Joan Baez.Later in the day, at the otherend of the reflecting pool,spoke A. Phillip Randolph,Shuttlesworth, and of coursethe headliner, Dr. King. Pressreports and recollections bylocal participants paint the

day as “glorious,” “wonder-ful,” “peaceful,” and “prom-ising.”

The march ended as anapparent success. In total,200,000 attended. Most Cin-cinnati marchers returnedhome that evening. An in-tense debate on the bill, theassassination of its chiefsponsor, and increased presscoverage followed. A yearlater, Kennedy’s successorsigned the bill with King andother leaders standing be-hind him to help fulfill thedream.

“Free at last! Free at last!Thank God almighty, we arefree at last.”

WILDER — Call Bobby Mackey’s hon-ky tonk or a favorite haunt, themusic inside remains traditionalcountry the way the club’s name-

sake owner and singer likes.“I’m proud to call it a honky tonk,” Mackey

said.Other country music performers play at

Bobby Mackey’s, but at 10 p.m. each Friday andSaturday Mackey and his Big Mac Band play onstage. A 35th anniversary celebration will beFriday and Saturday, Sept. 6-7, featuring Mack-ey and his band.

Mackey said he played at multiple clubs inthe Cincinnati area prior to opening his club in1978 inside the former Latin Quarter – whichwas a gambling casino up until the early 1960s.

The Highland Heights resident said hebought the club in Wilder so he could play tradi-tional country all the time.

“I just wanted to be in control,” he saidPeople who come to hear the music know

what to expect – covers of George Jones, HankWilliams Sr., and Buck Owens among othercountry icons, Mackey said. That’s in additionto his original songs. His 1982 single “PepsiMan” made the Billboard country chart list atNo. 57. Mackey said his song “Hero Daddy”became a hit locally on Cincinnati radio sta-tions.

He released a new album Aug. 20, “CountryMusic Lives On” featuring the song “That JonesBoy Is Gone” – a tribute to George Jones. Mack-ey said he originally wrote the song as “WhenThat Jones Boy Is Gone” a couple of years be-fore the singer’s death in April 2013. The song isan ode to Jones with the repeating lyric “who’sgoing to fill his shoes.”

He said this is the first album he wrote thelyrics for every song.

Bass player Ernie Vaughn of Forest Park hasplayed with Mackey since 1968.

Vaughn said it is a pleasure to play with, andsometimes just listen to, each other play andsing. Vaughn and other band members typicallyonly miss playing with Mackey three or fourtimes a year.

“It’s not a job, it’s just something that we alllike to do or we wouldn’t do it,” Vaughn said.

“I’m a traditional country singer, and that’s

all I’ve ever wanted to do,” he said. “And I knowit works.”

Mackey said he still has his mother’s Zenithradio where he heard country legends’ songswhile his mother worked inside his father’sgrocery store in Lewis County, Ky.

“As soon as we would get there in the morn-ing I would jump on a box and turn on that ra-dio,” Mackey said. “I’d listen all morning toHank Williams, Ernest Tubb and Red Foley.

“When I heard Hank Williams sing at 4-years-old my life was set to country music for-ever on,” he said.

Mackey said his strategy of delivering tradi-tional country music has worked so far, and hisaudiences range in ages including a youngercrowd that comes for the midnight set and themechanical bull “Turbo.” The bull has been partof Mackey’s for 34 years.

His midnight set has a lot of rockabilly, butit’s still all country, he said.

“That’s the young element, and the bulldoesn’t sit still too much and it’s rockin’ allnight long,” Mackey said.

The club also has become known as a placeto hunt for ghosts, something Mackey said hewas initially against. He said he feared ghoststories would scare people away, and managedto keep attention away from that for 10 years.Now some people seek out the club to see ifthey can spot ghosts, and that’s all right too, hesaid. Bobby Mackey’s has been featured onmultiple television shows including The TravelChannel’s “Ghost Adventures.”

The club continues to be an established coun-try music destination despite the ghost atten-tion, he said.

“It’s a throwback,” Mackey said of the club.“And if anybody used to come in there yearsago and comes back in today, it would be likethey basically stepped back in time. It has ba-sically stayed the same.”

And playing almost every weekend nevergets old to him, and he has no plans of stopping.“We went through the urban cowboy craze andevery other craze there was,” he said. “But theway it was is still the way it is, and the beatgoes on.”

As other country singers opened up theirown theaters in Branson, Mo., he said.

“I call my night club my Branson,” he said.“I don’t have to go running across the country. Iplay here in Wilder and people come to me.”

Bobby Mackey plays and sings country music insidehis club in Wilder, which will celebrate 35 years Sept.6-7.THANKS TO BOBBY MACKEY

Cleaning out thefreezer is never an easytask. I don’t know how Iaccumulate so muchfood in there! I ranacross a container ofsour pie cherries theother day from lastyear and knew I had todo something withthem, and fast. So Imade this cherry cob-bler. This is really deli-cious eaten warm witha dollop of whippedcream or ice cream andperfect for thatLabor Day gath-ering.

Cherry orberry cobbler

I have madethis with blue-berries, black-berries andraspberries.Just about anyfruit is good.After baking the batterrises up, surroundingthe berries.

6 tablespoons butter1 scant cup flour2 teaspoons baking powder3⁄4 cup sugar2⁄3 cupmilk2 generous cups cherries orberries (I used sour piecherries)

Preheat oven to 375degrees. In an 8-inchsquare or 2-quart bak-ing dish, melt butter inoven. Carefully removeand set aside. Whiskflour, baking powderand sugar together. Addmilk and stir until justcombined. Pour batterinto melted butter butdon’t stir. Add cherries.Bake 30-40 minutes oruntil cake portion isgolden and berriesexude juices.

Readers want toknow

7-Up Cake: For clar-ification on DianeByrne’s recipe that Ipublished, the puddingis one 1 oz. box. It is a

package containfour servings.Check out myblog for morerecipes.

Cherry bounce:Howmuch bour-bon? Enough tocover the cher-ries by an inch orso. Some readersuse vodka, rum orgrain alcohol. Thecontainer should

be glass, since it’s notair-permeable, with atight lid. Canning jarswork well. A readerwants to use a sugarsubstitute. I suggestedSplenda, but have nottried it.

Tips from readers’kitchen

Greyhound Restau-rant’s pasta Gabrielle:Thanks to the readerswho reminded meabout this previouslypublished recipe thatMaryAnn B. wanted.It’s on my blog.

Can you help?Poor man’s lobster: I

didn’t catch the read-er’s name, but she iscraving this dish. “It’smade with codfish thatyou cook in water sea-soned with perhapsbutter, salt and otheringredients. After it’scooked, you serve withdrawn butter. I wouldlove to have a recipesimilar to the one Ilost.”

Twin Trolley’s BBQ:For Carol E., who lovedthe sandwich of thisnow-closed and, I mightadd, much-loved res-taurant. If you have asimilar recipe, pleaseshare.

Manyet’s Bakerycheesecake: Anotherrequest from this pop-ular bakery, which wasin Newport and nowclosed. For Pat B.“They had a cheese-cake like no other Ihave ever had that wasreally great. If in anyway you can find thatrecipe, I would surelyappreciate it!”

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Freezing herbs in oilfor sauteing: Actually Igot this from Amy To-bin when I was a gueston her radio show. Fornice sauté oil that youcan freeze, pour oliveoil into ice cube traysand add a thin layer ofyour favorite herb(s).

Do you know the bestway to protect yourselfwhen receiving a largecheck?

One woman says shewishes she knew becauseher check was stolen andcashedmonths ago – andshe’s been unable to re-cover themoney.

Earlier this year,

HeatherWeismann ofDelhi Township got a cashadvance formore than$500. But before she couldcash it, the check wasstolen from her parkedcar. “When I got back tomy car it wasmissing. SoI called the place thatwrote the check to see if itwas cashed. The next day

it was cashed and it wasn’teven signed byme,”Weis-mann said.

Weismann got a copyof the check and foundalthough she had notsigned the back of it,someone else forged hersignature before getting itcashed. “They forgedmyname and then the bank

allowed them tocash the checkwithout mebeing present,”Weismann said.

After doing alot of investigat-ing on her own,Weismann de-termined theperson whocashed thecheck had an account atthat bank – and that per-son’s bank account num-ber was written on theback of the check.

Weismann contactedthe bank, which notifiedthe check casher. “Thebankmanager had calledthem and said, ‘You’resupposed to bring themoney back.’ She said,‘Well, HeatherWeismannsigned the check over tome and I have witnesses,’”Weismann said.

ButWeismann had

already filed a policereport alleging theperson who cashedthe check is a thief.Despite all this, Weis-mann still didn’t havehermoney back,which causedmajorproblems.

“I haven’t beenable to pay certain ofmy bills so I have late

fees coming – andmypersonal account basicallyis horrible. I can’t use itright now because ofthis,” she said.

Based on the informa-tion she’s uncovered,Weismann said she be-lieves police should ableto find the thief and takeaction.

“They forged a checkand stole a check. Theycashed a check. Altogeth-er that’s three thingsagainst this person. Theyneed to pay for what’s

happened,”Weismannsaid.

I contacted the bankand, following an investi-gation, the bank returnedthemore than $500 toWeismann plusmoney toreimburse her for theoverdraft charges sheincurred. A spokesmanfor the bank agrees thisappears to be theft. Thebank has turned over itsfindings to the CincinnatiPolice Department.

So protect yourselfwhenever you get a checkby immediately writing onthe back, “For DepositOnly.” There’s no need tosign it, just put it in yourbank as soon as possible.

Such action may result in a rate for consumers other than the rate in this notice.The foregoing rates reflect a proposed increase in electric revenues of approximately $91thousand or 0.03% over current total electric revenues and an increase of $31 thousand or 0.03%over current gas revenues.

A typical residential gas customer using 70 ccf in a month will see an increase of $0.03 or0.04%. A typical residential electric customer using 1000 kWh in a month will see an increase of$0.02 or 0.02%. A typical non-residential electric customer using 40 kilowatts and 14,000 kWhwill see an increase of $0.39 or 0.03%. Non-residential gas customers and non-residentialelectric customers served at transmission voltage will see no change in their bills from thisapplication.
