HIGHLAND HEIGHTS — Whatbegan with a new HighlandHeights city building, park andshelter in July 2010 has nowturned into a full campus com-plete with a new public worksbuilding, concession buildingand restrooms.

Since selling the former citybuilding property to Northern

Kentucky University as part ofthe university’s annexation intoHighland Heights in 2008, thecity has been leasing its publicworks building fromNKU, saidpublic works director Rick Lit-tle.

For years, city officials havebeen looking at possible loca-tions for a new public worksbuilding and last year decidedto construct the new buildingon the campus of the new citybuilding at 176 JohnsHill Road.

THE ART OFSAVING LIVES

This is a free-flowing artery thanks to tPA. It may look like modernart, but it’s a lifesaver.

tPA is a drug that breaks up blood clots, keeps arteries flowingand helps limit the damaging effects of a stroke. Today, thousandsof neurologists all over the world use tPA, but the discoveryhappened right here in Cincinnati at the University of CincinnatiMedical Center’s Comprehensive Stroke Center. We continue topioneer breakthroughs in science so we can perfect the art ofsaving lives.

Starting linebackerand senior Joe Kremer ofCalifornia said he is look-ing forward to walkingright outside of the lockerroom and not have to getonto the bus for a homegame.

The stadium’s capacityis 3,700 people.

Athletic DirectorSteve Hensley said thetrack team and footballteamshaven’t really had ahome event in 17 years.Soccer teamswill also usethe new athletic complexand the synthetic turffield is also a boost for the

physical education andband classes, Hensleysaid.

“I think the field’sgreat, and don’t even getme started about the newscoreboard,” said ZachSchneider, a senior soccerplayer of Alexandria.

Schneider said thescoreboard is hooked up

for instant replay andthere are three differentcameras on the field.

public works buildingand concession buildingand earlier this month,the construction wascompleted.

Little said the newpublic works building isa big upgrade from thelast building, which wasbuilt in 1977 and wasoutdated.

“This new buildinggives us a lot morespace and it is a lot saf-er,” Little said.

The public worksbuilding includes newamenities like a vehiclelift, a censored exhaustsystem and a biggersign cutting room com-plete with updatedequipment, allowingcity crews to makestreet and stop signs in-stead of paying to havethem made elsewhere.

Little said the newbuilding also includes aseparate salt and brinestorage area andenough space to storeall the city’s equipment,which had to be storedoutdoors in the past.

“In the long run, thisbuilding will save usmoneybecausewedon’thave to store equipmentoutside in the elementsanymore, which meanswe’ll have to replacethings less,” Little said.

Along with the newpublic works building,the project also includ-ed construction of anewconcession building andrestroomsnear theparkshelter and playgroundfor use during events.

Little said consultantJim Collins and MayorGreg Meyers were in-strumental in the pro-ject coming to fruition.

“They both workedreally hard to make thisproject happen,” Littlesaid.

Meyers said he isglad to see the projectcompleted and thinksthe new buildings willhelp the city serve citi-zens even better.

“This project reallycompleted our newcampus and will benefitthe citizens of HighlandHeights,” Meyers said.

through a staticy TVscreen as well as havingno central vision,” shesaid.

Participating in other5K runs and walks issomething Reed said sheenjoys, and usually stay-ing on course isn’t muchof an issue as long as shecan see other joggers.

AtSpringGroveCeme-tery there were a coupleof forks in the roadwhereReed said she couldn’t al-ways see the cones. Shewasn’t sure of what direc-tion to go.

“Luckily at one point

there was a jogger com-ing up behind me and hesaid ‘Hey, you’re going inthe wrong direction’,” shesaid. “So I was able toshift and go the right di-rection.”

Reed said she walksregularly.

“You just stick on yoursneakers and head out thedoor,” she said. “So, I real-ly enjoy that.”

Reed is also a Zumbainstructor at her church.

Her ultimate 5Kgoal isto “race walk” solo in theCincinnati Flying Pig halfmarathon next spring.

“My husband says hedoesn’twantme to runbe-cause he is afraid I’m go-ing to hurt myself, but Itell him I almost go as fast

as most joggers,” shesaid.

Reed said she volun-teers for CABVI to giveback,buthasalsoused theservices for low visionhelp including havingthem train her how to useher iPhone initially.

“I have also recentlylearned Braille here be-cause I’ve gotten to thatpoint where I felt like Ineed that,” she said.

Reed said she believesin CABVI’s mission tohelp people live indepen-dently. She has had towork to overcome otherpeople’s perceptionsaboutwhat blind andvisu-ally impaired people canand cannot do.

Moving at age 19 fromStockton,Calif.,Reedsaidshe first came to the areaas student at NorthernKentucky University.

“I got my bachelor’s offine arts from NKU andbecame a professionalartist and teacher despitebeing told that visuallyimpaired people could be

artists,” she said. “I said‘I’ll show you,’ and I did.”

Reed has taught pri-vately and in the summerenrichment program atFort Thomas Indepen-dent Schools, and hasworkedatBakerHuntArt& Cultural Center in Co-vington. She also volun-teers with the EveryoneCounts programs inschools speakingwith ele-mentary students.

“I’ve really enjoyeddoing that because it’s anopportunity to show thekids I’m standing here,I’m an artist and I do 5Ksand the gets really excit-ed and they ask all kindsof crazy questions,” Reedsaid.

It’s fun to watch thechildren go oh, she said,and make a connectionpeople with disabilities orchallenges can do manyof the same things theydo.

“They may just dothem in a different way,”Reed said.

Reed said unless she is

using a cane in a crowdedspace, which she some-times does, people don’tusually realize she is visu-ally impaired

“I’ll have people whothink I’m snobby becauseI don’t look them in theeye,” she said.

Kathy Gottschlich, di-rector of developmentand community relationsfor CABVI, said the or-ganization works withpeople to overcome barri-ers and being told theycan’t do certain things.

CABVI’s services in-clude helping people withaccess technology ser-vices, early childhood andyouth services, supportgroups and a range of so-cial services, according tothe websitewww.cincyblind.org.

Educating the publicpeoplewith visual impair-ments can do things peo-ple think they cannot,Gottschlich said.

“Independence is thebig thing,” she said.“That’s our mission.”

BELLEVUE — Veteransprograms and youthsports will benefit from aLabor Day weekend out-door festival offering ataste of what some Camp-bell County businesseshave to offer, with a sideof entertainment.

The idea for the tastefundraiser started withthe goal of it being anevent for Northern Ken-tucky restaurants, but itwas scaled back to Camp-bell County, Buschle said.

The idea is to make itan annual event andspread booths out acrossthe Vets property – andnot just the parking lot,she said.

“Hopefully as it getsbigger and bigger we’llhave to use the wholefield,” Buschle said.

There is no admissionto the taste, but each res-taurant booth will be sell-ing their own specialties.

“Each booth can haveone specialty item for $4,and then everything elsehas to be $3 and under,”she said.

The restaurants serv-ing food at the Taste in-clude:

» Pasquale’s Pizza ofBellevue,

» The Elusive CowCafe of Bellevue,

»Marco’s Pizza Storeof Bellevue,

» Beef ‘O’ Brady’s ofNewport,

»Mr. Herb’s Restau-rant of Alexandria,

» Candy and Cones ofAlexandria, and

»Mokka of Newport.The schedule of music

Is your business engagedin education? As a businessyoucansupport theeducationpipeline and be a key partnerfor student success.

Simply put, successful stu-dents equal a quality futureworkforce. Not sure how toget involved? Now there is anew business engagementtoolkit thatemployerscanuseto help them focus their ef-forts.

“Our company has beencommitted to education for anumber of years, but now wehave a new toolkit that pro-vides us with concrete infor-mation about programs thathave measurable results anddemonstrated impact in ourschools,” said Jean Loftus ofLoftus Plastic Surgery. “Wewant our commitment of timeand resources to make a realdifference, and having thistoolkit makes it possible to doso.”

This year, the NorthernKentucky Education Coun-cil’s volunteer Action Teamthat focuses on business en-gagement developed the tool-kit which outlines ways inwhich a business can help im-pact student achievement.

The toolkit provides con-cise program overviews, suc-cess stories, and ways to getinvolved.Byusing the toolkit,businesses can easily matchtheir available resources andareas of interestwith specificprograms and initiatives.

Graphic design for thetoolkit was made possible byestablishing a unique collabo-rationwithThomasMoreCol-lege’s Art Department. Assis-tantProfessorRebeccaRuehlAmann and her students do-nated both time and talent totheproject for thegraphicde-sign.

The Action Team, com-prised of business, educationand community leaders, iscurrentlydevelopingastrate-gicdistributionplan toget thetoolkit into “the hands” ofbusiness leaders.

In partnership with theNorthernKentucky Chamberof Commerce, the team isidentifying local companiesthatmay be interested in con-necting with neighboringschools and engaging in tool-

kit programs.Melanie Frey, regional

business manager for TurnerConstruction and cochair ofthe Action Team, said, “Theinvolvement of local busi-nesses in high impact educa-tion initiatives is critical tothe economic prosperity ofour region.Ourbusinesscom-munity requires a preparedworkforce which requires acommunity-wide investmentand the support and engage-ment of local businesses ineducation. This toolkit showsemployers how to do that ef-fectively.”

For instance, a JuniorAchievement section helpscorporate and communityvolunteers promote work-force readiness througheasy--to-implement programs.

Business Education Suc-cess Teams can partner withlocal schools to support stu-dent needs and develop activ-ities that impact studentachievement.

ThroughOne-to-OneRead-ing, business and communityvolunteers can help strug-gling readers in first throughthird grade.

Underservice learning,or-ganizations can help studentsdevelopcriticalproblemsolv-ing skills, energize employ-ees and learn the benefits ofmeaningful civic engage-ment.

“Wearefocusedonhelpingeach one of our studentsreach their full potential andour business

partners play an essentialrole in the education of ouryouth,” said Dr. Terri Cox--Cruey,

superintendent of KentonCounty Schools and memberof Action Team 5. “With theirsupport,

our students will reachtheir college and careergoals.”

The toolkit was made pos-sible through a grant to Ac-tion Team 5 from Vision 2015.

SCHOOL NOTES

A8 • CCF RECORDER • AUGUST 22, 2013 NEWS

ALEXANDRIA — ElenaHumpert, 18, of Alexan-dria, never had to experi-ence the limitations of liv-ing in Communist Roma-nia –andfor that freedom,her family is thankful.

Humpert’s May 26graduation from BishopBrossart High Schoolserved as a reminderofwhyher family leftRoma-nia in 1973.

Humpert said she wasbrought up with familystories about leaving Ro-mania for a chance at abetter life. Humpert’sgrandparents Josef andMagdalena Holz brought

her mother, Brigitte, toCincinnati from Romaniaat age14. They left Roma-nia with one suitcaseeach, and were not al-lowed to take any familyphotos or money.

Fast forward to 2013,andHumpert is a graduatefromBishopBrossartwithhonors including awardsfor being in Spanish Hon-ors Society, National Hon-or Society and Beta Club.She has accepted a four-year, $5,000 annual schol-arship to attend NorthernKentucky University.

Humpert said beingthe only grandchild, thereare expectations. Hum-pert said she can tell hergrandmother,Magdalena,who lives in the housenext door, is proud of her.

“They’re always like‘Oh my goodness, you didthis!’ and you knowalwayssupportingme,” she said.

Humpert said her in-terest in the family histo-ry is becoming serious.She wants to talk to hergrandparents about their

experiences and learnmore details.

“I think I’m getting tothe age now where I’mreally starting to appreci-ate it,” Humpert said.

Her mother said shespoke four languages in-cluding French and Ger-man when her parentsbrought her to Cincinnation Dec. 22, 1973, but notEnglish. Brigitte startedschool in English Jan. 3 atSt. Williams CatholicSchool in Price Hill.

“English was my fifthlanguage, and I was verymiserable,” she said.

One thing Brigitte saidshe did understand, wasthat her familywas in bet-ter circumstances. Herfather worked as a bricklayer and her motherworked as an apartmentmanager.

The family had emi-grated from Albrechts-flor, a village of 300 peo-ple in Western Romanianot far from the Russianborder, she said. Brigittesaid she had a happychildhood, and was shel-

tered from most, but notall of the realities of theCommunist state.

Brigitte said she re-members an 18-year-oldman from their town whofailed inan illegal attemptto escape the country onfoot. The army broughthim back to town, shesaid.

“They brought himback to the town and theymarchedhimaroundtoallthe people,” Bridgittesaid.

Then the man was exe-cuted in the town squareas an example, she said.

“They knew that a lotof people wanted out,”Brigitte said.

Their family prayedfor 13 years and waitedfor a legal passport toleave the country, shesaid.

Brigitte said her ownfortunes changed in theU.S. after a woman whospoke German tutoredher for twoyears,Brigittesaid.

“She was my savior,”she said.

Brigitte went on tograduate fromSetonHighSchool, received a bache-lors of arts degree fromthe College of Mount St.Joseph, and amaster’s de-gree from GeorgetownCollege. She works as ateacher in CampbellCounty Schools now,working to educate stu-dents in the CampbellCounty’s juvenile deten-tion center.

Brigitte said her par-

ents always emphasizedhow education is the mostimportant thing a personcando for themselves.Bri-gitte said she has stressedthe value of education toher daughter Elena. Theopportunity to do well andhave a chance to graduatewas a big reason why thefamily left Communist Ro-mania, she said.

“I didn’t know whatfreedom was until I camehere,” Brigitte said.

“This takes our Relayfor Life concept and ex-pands it to involve ourpets,”saidKilaHanrahan,Bark for Life organizer.

For nearly a century,the American Cancer So-ciety has raised funds tosupport cancer researchat Relay for Life events.These fundshave contrib-uted to a 20 percent de-crease in the overall can-cer death rate since itspeak in 1991. That meansthat more than 400 liveseach day are saved.

“Fora lotofus, ourpetsare a part of our family,”Hanrahan said. “Apet canbe there for the family go-ing through somethinglike cancer just as muchas a human being can.”

This is the first Barkfor Life in the region. The

goal for the event, Hanra-han said, is to raise $5,000.

The Aug. 31 event in-cludes a short walk, dog-gie games, top dog anddress up contests, teamand community fundrais-ing, music and food, aswell as special dog guestdemonstrations.

Tami Costello, Cres-cent Springs, a Bark forLife committee memberand cancer survivor, saidshe is excited about thisnew event.

“I’ve seen the comforta furry friend brings tosomeone going throughcancer,” she said. “Dogsdon’t ask questions, theydon’t judge, they just sim-ply love. I’m happy to bepart of an event that hon-ors them the way theyshould be.”

She hopes that theevent is successful andsupported by the commu-nity so it can grow moreeach year.

“Everyonehasseentheface of cancer, whether itbe a parent, child, sibling,aunt, uncle, friend, co-worker or even a strangerin thestore,”shesaid. “It’stime to put an end to thisterrible disease and havefun doing it.”

Kick up yourboots ‘n’ heelsParty with apurpose targetschild abuseByMelissa [email protected]

InMay of last year, Coving-ton Latin High School releasedanother group of outstanding,high-achieving students intothe post-secondary world.

One of those students wasvaledictorianMalory Thelen.

Malory graduated fromhigh schoolwith a resumethat many ofus, with yearsof experiencein the work-force underour belts,could look tofor motiva-tion.

Dave The-len, Malory’s

grandfather, has been veryinvolved inMalory’s life fromthe beginning. He andMalo-ry’s mother, Terri, credit Mal-ory’s strong education founda-tion to her time spent in pre-school. (Author’s note: Daveand Terri have been very hum-ble about their own contribu-tion, which was also essential

to this wonder-ful girl’s myriadachievements.)

Her educa-tional journeybegan at Cathe-dral Child De-velopment Cen-ter, across thestreet from theCathedral Bas-ilica and Coving-

ton Latin. It was here thatMalory was offered aMon-tessori experience, and sheflourished. Terri notes, “Shehas always been a self-starter,and this was the perfect set-ting for her. She worked onassignments that she foundinteresting, mastered themandmoved on to the next chal-lenge… I really think her selfconfidence was enhancedduring her years at theMon-tessori school. Mike and Iwere so impressed with theprogram that Malory attendedkindergarten at the school.”

A quality environment

during the birth to 5 years of achild’s life is absolutely essen-tial to success later in life. TheCenter on the DevelopingChild at Harvard Universitypoints out in one edition of itsseries “InBrief: The Scienceof Early Childhood Devel-opment” that during the firstfew years of life, 700 newneural connections areformed every second. Earlylearning environments areplaces to grow a child’s cogni-tive, language, and social-emotional skills.

WhenMalory entered firstgrade at St. Pius X, she wasalready reading at third-gradereading level. Her grandfa-ther, Dave, writes “Her social,behavioral, and languageskills all were developed earlyin life at the age of 3.” Maloryhas continued to shine. At 12,she was the youngest volun-teer with the American Can-cer Society and Be Concerned(a Covington-based nonprofitassisting low-income North-ern Kentuckians in meetingbasic needs).

“Basically, it was regulartag, but I was always ‘it.’ Iremember one day in partic-ular when a newer student ranup to me during this game and

gaveme a big hug for lettinghim play with the older stu-dents. A simple game hadaccomplished something big-ger: I, along with the otherstudents, had fostered a senseof inclusiveness and fun inthat microculture of the play-ground.”

Early childhood investmentis gaining favor throughoutthe political spectrum. A re-cent Public Opinion Strategiesand Hart poll found that 60percent of Republicans, 64percent of independents, and84 percent of Democrats sup-port a federal plan that helpsstates provide better earlychildhood education programsto low- andmiddle-incomefamilies without increasingdebt.

Transylvania University isnow fortunate enough to hostMalory through the nextphase of her education. She istaking general studies rightnow, and her inspiring writingcan be found on the studentblog, Write on Broadwayhttp://beapioneer.wordpress.com/.

On Saturday, Aug. 3, at theannual Fancy Farm picnic infar western Kentucky, Sen.Mitch McConnell and his twoleading challengers – TeaParty candidate Matt Bevinand 34-year-old DemocratSecretary of State AlisonLundergan Grimes – took thethree inside positions.

McConnellshould haveconcerns outof the gatewith a 51percent dis-approval, andbeing neck-and-neckwith Grimesin two recentpolls. Hehandled thechallengers

with tactics from a veteran’scampaign playbook and herealizes their handicaps.

As McConnell approachedthe podium, roughly equallysized crowds representingMcConnell and Grimes re-flected the polls, yelling al-ternatively, “WeWant Mitch”and “Ditch Mitch.” He re-fused to formally acknowl-edge either challenger (Bevinwhatsoever), and insteadreminded the audience of thecommonwealth’s disdain forDemocratic leadership.

His speech cast him as acandidate against Obama,Pelosi or Reid, not Grimes.“Every liberal in America isout to beat us,” he said, point-ing at the stable of Demo-crats who he said standagainst coal, against liberties,and against lower taxes.

In courting the state’sindependent voters, he subtlytouted his influence in theSenate chamber that wouldbe lost if he were replaced,saying you can’t take care ofnational issues for Kentuckyfrom the back-bench.

Grimes is a more-than-formidable candidate hand-

picked by the establishment.As a fairly new political facewith great potential, she’staking the classic outsider’sstrategy against what shecalls DC – the “DysfunctionalCapital.” Playing upMcCon-nell’s obstructionist labelwhile he looked on andsmirked inches away in thefirst chair, she declared withthe best jab of the afternoon,“If the doctors told SenatorMcConnell he had a kidneystone, he’d refuse to pass it.”

McConnell disappearedbefore insurgent Matt Bevinintroduced himself to thestate. Bevin is a Kentuckyimmigrant and first-timecandidate who might developa niche following with sup-port from unique places. Cansuch a challenger defeat anestablishment figure? AskRand Paul, the newcomerwho ran under the Tea Partybanner in 2010 to defeatMcConnell’s hand-pickedcandidate.

Both challengers bene-fited from the Fancy Farmstage, but they are on a Ken-tucky raceway familiar to theexperiencedMcConnell since1984. In a state with a closedprimary and an early regis-tration deadline, Bevin willhave challenges in earningcrossover support.

Grimes has created herownmuddy track. Last week,Politico revealed five issuesshe refused to discuss,though her party has takenclear positions on the same.She must run from her lead-ers and from their views,while simultaneously con-vincing conservative andmoderate Kentucky voterswhy they should support her.You can bet the old war horsewill soon exploit his oppo-nent’s uncertain start to avoidthat one fateful career loss.

As I travel the state, I amfrequently asked what I cando about high gas prices andprice fluctuations across the

common-wealth.

I under-stand the frus-tration withhigh gasprices. I un-derstand howtough it is onhard-workingfamilies. Noone wants tochoose be-

tween filling up the gas tankor putting food on the table orpaying a bill. Andmany of usrely on our vehicles to get towork, so that we can pay ourbills. Be assured, protectingKentucky consumers at thegas pumps is a top priority ofmine.

So, why are gas prices inparts of Kentucky between 12and 20 cents higher on aver-age? In 2008, we launched aninvestigation into the whole-

sale price of gasoline.Our experts uncovered

strong data to suggest thatMarathon’s acquisition ofAshland Oil in the late 1990snegatively impacted competi-tion in the wholesale gasolinemarket in Kentucky. In otherwords, our investigation in-dicatedMarathon has a re-gional monopoly that allows itto manipulate gas prices at thewholesale level. Even afterapproving the merger in the1990s, the Federal Trade Com-mission (FTC) warned that ofthe nine states involved in themerger, one state bears watch-ing – that was Kentucky.

Marathon, which bases itsprices off of the Chicago SpotMarket, is the dominant sup-plier of gas to retailers whosell that gas in Kentucky. InLouisville and Northern Ken-tucky, where the Environ-mental Protection Agency(EPA) mandates that reformu-lated gas (RFG)must be used,it supplies nearly 100 percentof the wholesale RFG.Wheth-

er you buy gas at a Chevronstation, BP or Thornton’s, youare likely buyingMarathongas. EPA requirements ac-count for about a 10-cent in-crease in the price of reformu-lated gas. Our investigationshows the monopoly accountsfor the additional 5 to 10 centdifference.

After we completed ourinvestigation in 2008, we pro-vided then FTC Chairman JonLeibowitz with our findingsbecause this is an antitrustissue that falls under theFTC’s jurisdiction. The FTCdid nothing. We evenmade ourcase to the U.S. Attorney Gen-eral and the Justice Depart-ment’s Oil and Gas PriceFraudWorking Group. Again,federal regulators have donenothing to addressMarathon’sdominant position in Ken-tucky.

I refuse to let this matterrest.

Jack Conway is attorney general ofKentucky.

Why are N. Ky. gas prices so high?

ALEXANDRIA — Excitementfor the 2013 high school footballseason has been building for along time in Alexandria.

Campbell County HighSchool will play its first seasonin its new, on-campus, stadium.TheCamelsweresoexcitedthatthey did not waste a minute insharing this season with thecommunity, hosting a midnightpractice under their new lightson Aug. 1.

The new stadium coincideswith head coach Stephen Lick-ert’s third year leading the pro-gram. After successfully turn-ing around programs at Daytonand Holmes, where he spentthree years each before comingto CCHS, Lickert has the Cam-els in a position to reach heightsthe program has not seen inmany years. The Camels havewon district championships ineach of Lickert’s first two sea-sons, and now have their sightsset on a three-peat and a deeperrun in the postseason.

“Our team goals are to winthe district, win two playoffgames, and compete in everygame,” said Lickert. “We have avery tough district, but we feelwe have a very good chance tocompete.”

The team’s success in 2013will hinge largely on who stepsuptofill thecleats leftbygradu-ated quarterback Tyler Dur-ham. Senior Avery Wood hasstarted at tight end the past twoseasons while backing up Dur-ham. He is competing in campwith junior Preston Spicer forthe starting quarterback spotthis year. Also in the mix is 6’7”sophomore Matt Wilson. It willtake a collaborative effort

among all 11 players on offenseto collectively replace Dur-ham’s numbers.

“We have to have all playerstake a role in replacing the pro-duction,” Lickert said. “Ourdepth could be an issue if we donot stayhealthy.Wehavea lotoftalent to replace.”

Although there are key play-ers to replace, the Camels whowillbechargedwithsteppingupnow have multiple years of ex-perience inLickert’ssystem.In-stead of spending time in prac-tice teaching new concepts, thecoaching staff can now plug innewstarters andexpect themtoproduce immediately.

“This is the third year in theoffensive,defensiveandspecialteams systems so our kids cannow perfect the intricacies ofthe systems,” said Lickert. “Weare much faster and more ath-

letic than last year and with theexperience of so many kidsplaying last year we should beable to pickupwherewe left offand continue to improve.”

Lineman Patrick Berke-meyer, linebacker Joe Kremer,andstrongsafetyDustinTurnerprovidesenior leadershiponde-fense. Wide receiver Jake Za-

bonick, linemanLoganSchneid-er, and running back AlexHow-ard join Wood in providing sen-ior leadership on offense.

The Camels open the seasonat the new Campbell CountyHighSchool StadiumonAug. 23against Newport, before facingLickert’s alma mater, High-lands.

NEWPORT—Aheadcoachingchange often comeswith otherchanges, whether it’s to theroster, depth chart or play-book.

Other than the man incharge, Newport CentralCatholic’s football program isnotgoing to lookverydifferentthan the 2012 edition led byEd-die Eviston. This year, DanWagner, a former assistant onEviston’s staff, takes over. TheThoroughbreds have an expe-rienced roster and a system inplace.

“We are using the same sys-tem as last year,” said Wagner.“The only change is the nameof the head coach. The coach-ing staff is back and has beenhere for a while.”

Not only are the ‘Breds ex-perienced this year, but theteam has depth, somethingthat is often elusive for Class2A teams. Jack Sutkamp, TylerLyon, and Steve Brooks will beleaders on both sides of theball, but NewCath has playerswho will be able to impactgames on just one side of theball. Mac Franzen, Matt Lenz,JacobSmith,TommyDonnelly,and Nat Kling will contributeon offense,withWyattBoberg,John Caudill, Kalvin Moore,Mie Runyon, and Kole Zennileading the defense.

“We should be able to playmore players on both sides ofthe ball,” said Wagner. “Weshould be a little deeper thisyear.”

Brooks may be the mostphysical player on the team.

The offensive lineman andlinebackerwill need tobalanceplaying tough and stayinghealthy. The defensive line isthe biggest question mark en-tering the season. The offense,led by Franzen, should im-prove on last year’s numbers.The consistency on the coach-ing staff will no doubt help theThoroughbreds improve.

“It’s the same things as al-ways,” saidWagner. “Continuework hard, pay attention to de-tail, and take care of your as-signment.”

The schedule will prepare

NewCath for the postseason.Although one of the smallerschools in Northern Kentucky,the Thoroughbreds benefitfrom playing against some ofthe top competition the regionhas to offer. The program ishungry for another Class 2Astate championship andwill bebattle-tested by the time thepostseason comes around.

“After our first five gamesagainst stiff competition andlarger schools, we feel like wehave seen teams as good as anythat wewill see throughout theplayoffs,” said Wagner.

NEWPORT — A successfulcoaching transition changesmore than just the gameplan onthe field. Newport High Schoolexpects to benefit from newhead football coach MattSchmitz’s adjustments that willgo beyond the four quarters ofplay each Friday night.

“We’re changinga little bit ofeverything,” said Schmitz. “Notjust changes in offensive anddefensive systems, but what isexpected day to day in terms ofpreparation,accountability,andeffort.”

The Cincinnati native comesto Newport from Clinton HighSchool in Tennessee. He bringscollege playing and coachingexperience and knows what ittakes to succeed at a high level.He played quarterback at Aus-tin Peay University under hisfather,Bill, a formerUniversityof Cincinnati assistant. He is fa-miliarwith theareaandexpectsto use this year to build a foun-dation for a Wildcats resur-gence.

“Our goal is getting betterweek to week,” Schmitz said.“Ourbestpracticeshouldbe thelast oneof theyear.Thatwill getour team to the highest levelthat they can be this year, whilesetting us up for the future.”

This year’s squad will be ledby senior quarterback CharlieMullins on offense. Senior line-man Justice Lewis and juniorlinebacker David Lynam leadthe defense. Junior runningback/linebacker Dominick Jo-seph has turned heads in prac-tice and could be an impactplayer this season.

The early part of the seasonwill be spent developing consis-tencywhile theplayers andnewstaff adjust to one another.

Newport will be more focusedon internal improvement thanits win-loss record. If the Wild-cats takecare of the little things

they need to do, the big things(i.e. wins) will eventually takecare of themselves.

“We’re working on getting

the players to move on fromlearning what to do and focusmore on how to do it successful-ly," said Schmitz. “We are focus-

ing on the little details thatmake the difference.”

There will be no easing intoSchmitz’s first season at thehelm. The Class 2A Wildcatsopen the season against one ofthe top teams in Northern Ken-tucky, Class 6ACampbell Coun-ty. Newport will be the firstteam to play in brand newCampbell County High SchoolStadium when they face theCamels on Aug. 23.

“Not only does our scheduleprepare us for the postseason,but for our district schedule,”said Schmitz. “We play verygood teams early on.”

ALEXANDRIA — There is notmuch tradition in Bishop Bros-sart’s football program, whichis understandable for a pro-gram entering just its seventhseason.

TheMustangs hope to createa tradition under new headcoach Lee Teegarden, who tookover in January as just the thirdcoach in the program’s briefhistory. The team is coming offof a disappointing 1-9 season,but is just three years removedfrom its last winning season.The goal this year is to recordthe second winning season inprogram history.

“A winning season wouldmake this a very successfultransition for the program,”said Teegarden.

The foundation is there.Brossart has enjoyed successandwon state championships inother sports. Football is still rel-atively new to the community,but there is excitement andsup-port for Mustangs football.

“The Brossart communityworks really well for the kids,”saidTeegarden.“Wereallyhavethe potential for great successhere.”

It helped that Teegarden andhis staff joined the program inJanuary. They had time to im-plement changes right away,rather than wait until the play-ers put on pads in August.

“Wemadea lot of progress inthe weight room and we wereable to install some things in thespring,” said Teegarden.

The biggest changes to theprogram go beyondX’s and O’s.Teegarden’s first order of busi-ness was to instill his style ofdiscipline, which affects theplayers on the field and in theclassroom.

“Theguyshavehad to learnadifferent way of life,” said Tee-garden, the former head coachat Pendleton County. “We haveincreased their conditioning,discipline and expectations.”

Nine seniors return, eight ofwhom started last year. Quar-terback Casey Pelgen leads theoffense out of the shotgun. TheMustangs aim to be very bal-anced on offense. Running

back/defensive back Sean Tie-man, wide receiver/defensiveback Quinn O’Bryan, tight end/defensive end Austin Shannon,and offensive/defensive line-man Charlie Britt also provide

senior leadership. The defenseis based out of a 5-2 slant front,but with athletic ends who candrop into a 3-4 scheme.

The Mustangs will have oneof the more experienced teamsin their district, but know that itwill be a challenge to competewith Class 2A powers HolyCross and Newport CentralCatholic. The young program isstill seeking an identity, andhopes that it can find one underthe formerRyleHighSchool of-fensive coordinator.

“It’s up to us to go out thisyear and begin to make achange,” said Teegarden.

The Class 1A program willrely on leadership from severalexperienced players, each ofwhom start on both sides of theball. Zach Poinsett providesleadership at wide receiver/running back and linebacker.Tyler Ackerson will quarter-back the offense and lead thesecondary on defense. KevinApted and Hayden Swope get itdone in the trenches for the Ti-gers, anchoring both the offen-sive and defensive lines. Poyn-ter installed his “Hillbilly Six”defense last year as coordina-tor, andhis staffwillmakesomechanges to the offense this sea-son.

“They have another year’sexperience,” said Poynter.“They are learning how to readthe (opposing) defense.”

Running back and lineback-er Dylan Huff is the team’s topreturning player. Huff rushedfor 276 yards and five touch-downs in Bellevue’s first roundplayoff victory over Eminencein 2012, but was held to just 51yards in the second round lossto Frankfort. The team willcount on consistency fromHuffin 2013.

Theplay of the offensive linewill be thekey to the team’s suc-cess. Poynter said that the lineis theonearea inwhichhehopesto see the most improvementfrom his team over the courseof the season.

The schedule will be toughagain, as it often is for thesmall-est schools in Northern Ken-tucky. Beechwood is again theteam to beat in District 4. TheTigers will spend time in the

preseason working to improvetheir conditioning. Playing bothways and still having energy toget stops on defense late in thegame will be another key toBellevue’s success this year.

“We play some real fastteams,” said Poynter.

The Tigers open the seasonat home against Walton-Veronaon Aug. 23.

DAYTON — Dayton HighSchool’s football program woneightgames in2007.TheGreen-devils thenwon just four gamesover the next four seasons. Lastseason, Dayton posted threewins, its most since that 2007season. In head coach ChadMontgomery’s third season, theimprovement is expected tocontinue.

“We’re still a very youngfootball team,” saidMontgome-ry, “but we also have the great-est attitudes since I have beeninvolvedwith the program.”

Scheduling is often a chal-lenge for Class 1A teams, andthe Greendevils expect a morebalanced schedule to help theteam earn some wins, whichshould in turn boost the moraleof the young roster.

“Our schedule is more com-parable to our size this year,”said Montgomery. “In 2012, weplayed almost all 2A teams andplayedupand itwasnot best forour program. I know ourstrength of schedule is notwhatitwas,butwe’re tryingtosched-ule teams closer to our size andwhere the program is at. We’retrying to build some confidencewith our guys.”

This is no slight to Dayton’s2013 opponents, who will stillpresent a formidable challenge.But, fora teamthatplaysnearlyevery starter on both sides ofthe ball, it is nice to face a teamwith a similarly situated roster.

“Not that our schedule iseasy and I keep reminding peo-ple of that, but it is just nice toline up and have the same 25 onthe other sideline and same 11playing the whole game againstus,” saidMontgomery.

Seniors Eddie Combs (offen-sive and defensive line), Austin

Brockman (tight end and line-backer) and Justin Turner (of-fensive and defensive line) pro-vide leadership for an other-wise young squad. FreshmanCarlMatthewshasturnedheadsincampwithhisathleticism.Hewill play center, long snapper,and defensive line, but has theability to play anywhere fromwide receiver to linebacker, ac-cording toMontgomery.

“He is a Mr. Do-It-All. He

could long snap back to himselfand punt it, but he’ll just snap,”Montgomery said. “He is afreshman but he plays like a ju-nior.”

With two freshmen and asophomore starting on the line,thatgroup’smaturationwillbeadeciding factor for the Green-devils as they look to build onlast year’s two-win improve-ment.

“We need to stay healthy and

get a bunch of freshmen andsophomores to play above andbeyond their level,” said Mont-gomery.

The goal for this year is tohost a District playoff game.The Greendevils will have tocontend with Beechwood andBellevue for the right to do so.Dayton gets one extra day ofpreparation, as theGreendevilsopentheseasonat10a.m.,Satur-day,Aug.24,atBishopBrossart.

FT. THOMAS — Despite itslong tradition of champion-ships, Highlands High School’sfootball programhas never got-ten complacent under headcoach Dale Mueller. This year,after winning six straight statetitles, the Bluebirds will chal-lenge themselves in the regularseason like never before.

“We have the best schedulethat we have had since I havecoached at Highlands,” saidMueller.

The Bluebirds open the sea-son with a nationally televisedgameonESPNUagainstFloridastate champion UniversityChristian. The game is part ofthe annual Skyline Chili Cross-town Showdown, and marksHighlands’s first appearance inthe season-opening celebrationof high school football. TheBluebirds will get to show offtheir home field and supportivefans on a national broadcast.

Then, Highlands takes onCampbell County and threequality opponents from down-state before its marquee Dis-trict matchup with CovingtonCatholic. The Bluebirds alsomust travel toThePit to faceEl-der, one of the top teams in Cin-cinnati and one of the toughesthigh school football stadiums inthe country for visiting teams.

“Bythe timewehavedoneallof that,” said Mueller, “we areready for the playoffs.”

Stellar quarterback play hasbeen a cornerstone for High-lands throughout Mueller’s ten-ure. This year, Drew Houlistontakes the mantle. After spend-ing time at wide receiver thepast twoyearswhilewaiting histurn behind Patrick Towles andDonovan McCoy, he has shownthat he is ready to take control

of the offense.“He makes reads and deliv-

ers theball like anNFLquarter-back,” said Mueller. “The play-ers and coaches are so excitedbecause he is fast and athleticwith a great arm, but especiallybecause he is brilliant andmakes such fast and excellentdecisions.”

Houliston has an experi-enced leader behind him in thebackfield. Zach Harris is athree-year starter at runningback and provides leadershipfor the offense. The defense isled by lineman Seth Hope, whohas committed to play for Cor-nell University. Thomas Wro-bleski and Michael Ayers alsobring experience and strength

to the defense.Head coaches throughout

the state have likely spentcountless hours trying to figureout the secret to the Bluebirds’success. The thing is, Muellerkeeps it simple. The demandingschedule this year will provideHighlands with a bigger chal-lenge, but the daily goals re-main the same.

“Thekey tooursuccess is ev-ery player doing his best to getbetter every day,” saidMueller.“We have 96 players and rightnow about 50 of them are readytoplayvarsity football.Weneedmore guys to advance into thatcategory and the guys who arevarsityplayers to stepupanoth-er level.”

Sueworked for PNC for 16years; after leaving PNCshe worked for the Camp-bell Co. Child Support Of-fice and retired in 1999.Tom worked for GE inEvendale for 17 years andthen worked at GladstoneLabs for 25 years and re-tired in 2000. They resid-ed in Dayton, Ky for mostof their married life andnow reside in Cold Spring.

As I’ve mentionedbefore, I know when arecipe hits a chord withreaders by the amount ofresponse it generateslong after it’s published.This is particularly trueof seasonal recipes, likeroasted tomatoes.

This recipe is slightlydifferent from one Ishared last year. Toma-

toes are inseasonright nowand thehome-grown/bestare abun-dant atfarmers’markets.

As forme, mytomatoes

are the best I’ve evergrown and since most ofthem are the indetermi-nate type, they keepbearing all season long.I’m not even begrudgingthe groundhogs eatingtheir share, there’s thatmany! When I do findveggies and fruit thathave been bitten into byMother Nature’s clan, Ijust cut them up and feedthem to my girls (mychickens). They make aquick meal of them,

Tomatoes are full oflycopene, which is goodfor our hearts, men’sprostates and our im-mune system. Plus theyellow and orange toma-toes have just as muchnutrition as their redcounterparts.

Roasted regular-sizetomatoes withherbs (or not)

Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. Cut toma-toes in half. Lay eithercut side up or down (Ilaid mine cut side downbut next time will laythem cut side up since Ithink that will keep moreof the tomato flavor in).Drizzle with olive oil andsprinkle on any herbsyou like – basil, thyme,rosemary all work well.But be sure and chopthem up fine. I also like

to add salt and pepper.Roast until skins start tolook spotty if you areroasting skin side up.Otherwise, roast untiltomatoes look wrinkledand are soft.

Let cool and, if youlike, remove skins. Thefirst time I made them Ididn’t remove the skins,but when I used them incooked dishes they werea little tough. My sugges-tion is to remove them orput them in the blenderor food processor and theskins will process smallenough. You will wind upwith more of a puree ifyou put them through theblender or food proces-sor, but the bonus is youget the nutritious bene-fits of the skin. Freeze indesired quantities.

Roasted cherrytomatoes withherbs and garlic

This is nice since ev-erything is mixed in aboil and then just pouredonto a sprayed pan toroast. Delicious as a sidedish and, if you want tofreeze them, you caneither leave the skins on(they may be a bit tough)or puree them as direct-ed above. Now you canalso roast these plain,with just a sprinkling ofsalt and pepper and oil.

Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. For everypint of cherry or grapetomatoes, add a teaspoon

of minced garlic, a driz-zle of olive oil to coat

nicely, and salt and pep-per. Just mix this up in abowl. If you have anyherbs, again like basil,thyme or rosemary, chopup fine and add to taste.Pour onto sprayed bakingpan and roast until skinslook spotty and a bitpuffy, about 20 minutes.

Baked potatonachos with secretingredient

For Bart L., who likesthis spicy appetizer atrestaurants but wants tomake them at home. Byboiling potatoes first,they bake up really nicein the oven. And the se-cret ingredient that

makes these so differ-ent? Ranch dressing!

10medium red or Yukongold potatoes

1 pouch ranch salad dressingJalapeño slices (optional)16 oz. shreddedMexicanblend or favorite cheese

16 oz. sour creamGreen onions or chives,sliced thin

Cook potatoes withskin on: cover with coldwater and a dash of salt.Bring to boil, reduceheat, cover and cook justuntil tender, about 15minutes. Drain and coolso that you can cut theminto thick slices. Preheatoven to 375 degrees.

Put slices in single

layer on sprayed bakingsheets. Sprinkle eachwith the dressing mix,jalapeños, and thecheeses. Bake uncoveredfor 8-10 minutes or untilcheese melts. Dollop withsour cream and onions orchives.

Question:My spring/summer garden did poor-ly, but I have heard it’salso possible to plant afall and winter garden. Isthis true? How and whenshould I begin this pro-ject?

Answer: There is stilltime to plant a few things

withoutwinterprotectionor manymore ifyou con-struct asimplecold frameor justcover thecrops withsome kindof frost

protection.It is not too late to

continue to enjoy thegarden and add newplantings. A variety ofproduce can be grown inNorthern Kentucky gar-dens in the comingweeks, allowing freshitems to be available wellinto the fall.

The cooler nightsexperienced later in theyear as these vegetablesmature may increase thesugar content of manycrops and thus increasetheir quality. Coolernights also slow growth,however, so crops cantake longer to maturethan in the summer. Keepthis slower pace in mindwhen you check seedsfor days to maturity.

You need to plant let-

tuce seeds right away fora fall harvest. Try someof the red, purple, yellowor spotted varieties foradded color and fun. Inaddition, go ahead andplant seeds now for mus-tard greens, turnipgreens and beet greens.Also, between now andSept. 1, make two stag-gered plantings of spin-ach. Between now andSept. 15, make weeklyplantings of radish seedsfor a prolonged harvest

throughout the fall.After planting the

crops mentioned above,it’s time to build a simplecoldframe. All you needis 4 boards (2 by 12 inch-es) for the sides, andsome kind of clear plasticor glass for the roof. Oldglass sliding doors or olddouble-pane windowswork great for this.

Build your base to fitthe glass or plastic roof.Make the length what-ever you want, but keepthe width to about 4 feetso you can easily reachthe middle of the bedfrom each side withoutclimbing into the cold-frame. Put this “emptysandbox” on the ground,dig up the existing soil,add some compost or afew bags of potting mix,and plant in it. This willbe your cold frame.

Now, inside your cold-frame, you can plant allsorts of cool-season veg-gies: carrots, kale, col-lards, Bibb lettuce, tur-nips, kohlrabi, Chinesecabbage, Brusselssprouts, cabbage, cauli-flower, broccoli, spinach,radishes, turnips, beets,parsley, snow peas andleaf lettuce.

You will enjoy har-

vesting up until Christ-mas, and many of thesecrops will actually sur-vive the winter and startgrowing again in Febru-ary andMarch for anApril harvest. If you ventthe roof about½-1 inch,your coldframe will nev-er get too hot. Otherwise,if it is kept tightly closed,the temperature insidewill climb to 100 degreeson a sunny winter day.Ventilation is essential toavoid high-temperaturedamage to the plantsgrowing inside the cold-frame.

An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting theamounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles usedand significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Webelieve that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financialposition of the governmental activities, the business-type activities and each major fund of the City of Cold Spring,Kentucky as of June 30, 2012, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereoffor the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

ALEXANDRIA — WhenCampbell Ridge Elemen-tary students see policevolunteers like RodneyHenson, they start run-ning – not because they’rescared, but because theywant to get a hug.

Henson worked withAlexandria Police ChiefMike Ward at the end ofthe last school year to de-velop the Volunteers InPolice Service, orVIPS, inSchools program, to pro-vide safety for students inthe wake of the Newtown,Conn., shootings.

“I’ve never had anytragedy affectme like theConnecticut shootings. Itrippedmyheart out,” saidHenson. “There’s nothingmore precious than inno-cent kids.”

VIPS in Schools is theonlyprogramof itskind inKentucky, and Ward ex-pects to present it duringthe International Associa-tion of Chiefs of Policeconference in October.

The volunteers were inschoolsforamonthbeforethe term ended, but theywere back on the first dayof the new school year.

As students file pasthim in the hallway, theystop for high-fives, hugsor just to say hi.

Mayor Bill RachfordsaidHensonandthesevenothervolunteers see thosehugs as their reward.

“Each volunteer hasgotone,andtheysaythat’swhen theyknowthey’re inthe right spot,” he said.“I’m amazed at how asmall agency can do thiswithout adding a hugeamount of expense.”

Henson and seven oth-er volunteers patrol threeschools – Campbell Ridge,St. Mary School and Bish-op Brossart High School.

The next VIPS inSchools training sessionstarts in September. For

more information, callHenson at 859-957-9372.

Hesaidtheseven-weektraining “touches on ev-ery aspect of police pa-trols” exceptweapons, be-cause they don’t carryfirearms. They do get todrive a police cruiser,which stays parked out-side the school whilethey’re on duty.

Ward said his officersalso stop by to check theschool.

“So there’s no telling ifthere’s an officer or a vol-unteer with that car,” hesaid.

The group trained dur-ing the summer to carrystun guns as they walkthrough the school and itsgrounds each day, but thevolunteers also have adeeper social involve-ment.

“There’sahugeempha-sis on social services andhow to deal with at-riskkids,” saidWard.

The volunteers also es-cort all visitors through

the school, and make sureclassroom doors areclosed and locked, in ac-cordance with new Camp-bell County School Dis-trict policies.

“As far as safety goes,they have really made animpact,especiallymakingour dismissal process saf-er,” said Stacie Hardy,Campbell Ridge Elemen-tary assistant principal.“As far as student impact,I’d say it’s important forthe children to see some-one from the communitytake time to take care ofus. They get to see police

officers, not as someonewhogets thebadguys, butsomeone who helps peo-ple.”

Ward andHenson hopethe new group of VIPS inSchools will allow them tokeep one volunteer atCampbell Ridge each day,and one to go between theother two schools.

Henson said volun-teers should expect tospend one day every twoweeks “on duty,” andthat’s if they make itthrough the rigorous test-ing process.

Ward said each volun-

teer submits to drugscreening, criminal back-ground check and poly-graph test before they’reapproved.

“We’re going that extrasettomakesurewe’reput-ting the right people in theright place,” he said.

Henson said he hopes

to see the program be-come “standard in everyschool. We want to makeAlexandria schools safer,but we want to make allthe schools safer every-where. That’smy dream.”

ERLANGER — “Whenstudents come here, weknow their objective. Ev-erybody wants a job,” ex-plained Sherry Alston-Feltson, campus directorof Ross Medical Educa-tion Center in Erlanger.“We give everybody thetools.”

The new school, whichopened just last month,provides training in sub-jects such as medical as-sistant, pharmacy techni-cian, as well as medicalinsurance billing and of-fice administration.

What makes Rossunique? Size, for onething. “The campus ismeant to be small.”

Denise Stock is study-ing to be a pharmacytechnician. “The classesare small. I like that be-cause we got a lot of one-on-one,” she said.

“Our students aremore to us than just anumber,” Alston-Feltsonpointed out. “The reasonfor the small class is todevelop personalized re-lationships with our stu-dents. We’re here to helpthem to succeed.”

Students at Ross canexpect to enter the jobmarket sooner than thosefrom other schools. “Wehave a certificate pro-

gram, so our programsare eight to nine monthslong,” she said.

All students partici-pate in a six-week extern-ship after they completetheir classroom training.

She is optimistic aboutthe prospects for gradu-ates. “We’ve seen a grow-ing need for jobs in themedical industry,” shesaid.

What kinds of jobs?Take, for instance, a grad-uatewithaMedicalAssis-tant certificate. “Theycan work in a hospital,they can work at urgent

care centers, they canwork in a doctor’s office,”Alston-Feltson explained.

“They’re trained for bothfront and back office, sothey can handle adminis-trative duties and clinicalduties as well.”

Ross also offers flexi-ble schedules. “We havemorning and eveningclasses,” she pointed out.“A lot of times what wesee is students that havechildren that go to school.So the morning sessionmight work better. Theyput the kids on the schoolbus and then they’re inschool.”

Bradford Fletcher hasbeen a pharmacy techni-cian for seven years andnow teaches atRoss. “Thestudents are learningwell. They were a littleafraid at first, but oncewe actually sit down andstart explaining it,they’re not afraid,” hesaid.

“It’s a privilege toteach the skills I have ac-

quired over the past 25years as a nurse,” saidJane Burk, another of theinstructors. “I really en-joy it, their eagerness tolearn.”

The first RossMedicalEducation Center openedin1969. They now have 26campuses, located inMichigan, Ohio, Indiana,West Virginia and Ken-

tucky. The other Ken-tucky branch is in Bowl-ing Green.

“The capacity for thiscampus is under 200 stu-dents,” Alston-Feltsonsaid. Those with highschool education or GEDare welcomed to apply.“And we have classesstarting every four to sixweeks.”
