A Fresh TwistUA Chamber to hold 5K in June

In a move appropriate for the spring season, the Upper Ar-lington Chamber of Commerce is growing its menu of com-munity events. In addition to revamping its Community Celebration and Busi-

ness Expo, the chamber has added a 5K race, to be held in June. Both events are designed to help the community support

local businesses, says Interim Director Brandon Oates. For the first time, the Business Expo will be held at the

Nationwide & Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H Center at The Ohio State University, a move made to create more space for festivities. Though previous years’ celebrations have included a dinner, this year’s event, set for 5-8 p.m. March 11, will just include the business expo and community awards, Oates says.

OSU Men’s Hockey Team and Columbus Crew players will be available for meet-and-greets, and 10TV Meteorolo-gist Mike Davis will deliver live weather reports throughout the event.

Free door prizes, a silent auction and a wine raffle will also be featured. In the past, about 200 people have attend-ed, Oates says.

“We’re hoping to have higher numbers this year,” he says. Chamber members and the community will have a

chance to participate in a second chamber event come sum-mer, when the chamber will host its first 5K. The race, which starts at 9 a.m. June 20, will start and finish at Reed Road

Park. A Kids Fun Run will begin at 8:45 a.m. Runners in the 5K will get to race on Reed, Fishinger and McCoy roads.

Prior to and following the race, local businesses will set up tables with giveaways at Reed Road Park. Columbus Running Company will coordinate race timing logistics so each partici-pant can track his or her pace. Awards will be available by age and gender categories.

Tickets are $20 per person and increase to $35 per person the week of the event. Members or veterans of the U.S. military, along with groups of three or more, receive a $5 discount. The Kids Fun Run is free. Part of the proceeds will be donated to VETMotorsports, an Upper Arlington nonprofit that helps dis-abled veterans by introducing them to motor sports.

Plans for the construction of a new, wider West Fifth Avenue bridge over the

Scioto River are complete. The plan also includes

a shared use path along the south side of Fifth from Dublin Road to McKinley Avenue, as well as a sidewalk on the north side of Fifth.

The project is entirely funded, right-of-way acquisi-tions are complete and util-ity relocations are agreed upon, says Richard Ortman of the city of Columbus Department of Public Service, Division of De-sign and Construction.

Work will begin in May and continue through Novem-ber with portions of Fifth be-tween Dublin and McKinley closed during construction. The bridge will be closed from July to November for a total re-placement. East-west traffic on Fifth will be redirected to Tra-bue Road.

The bridge was built in 1971 and rehabilitated in 1995. Bridge inspections show that it requires attention due to heavy use created by the development of the areas west of the Scioto River. The work will include shifting the new bridge slightly to the north to better align with the intersection, adding a fourth lane on the bridge dedicated to east-bound Fifth Avenue traffic and adding a shared-use path on the south side and a sidewalk on the north side of the bridge. The shared use path on the south side of Fifth and the sidewalk on the north side will ex-tend from Dublin to McKinley.

Additional improvements include new streetlights and trees as well as the resurfacing of Fifth. LED traffic signals on mast arms will be installed at the intersection of Fifth and Dublin and connected to the master signal controller system managed by

the city of Columbus. A new crosswalk across Dublin will con-nect with the proposed bridge pedestrian walk. And the Scioto Greenway Trail along Dublin that ends at Fifth will be reworked and connected to the bridge shared-use path.

The lead agency for this extensive project is the Colum-bus Department of Public Service. Funding is provided by the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission, Ohio Department of Transportation’s municipal bridge funds, Columbus Depart-ment of Recreation and Parks and Columbus Department of Public Service.

Although the improvements will affect traffic in the short term, safety and traffic flow will be improved on these two very busy streets, Ortman says.

“This is a great project. People in the area need it, and I hope they enjoy the improvements,” he says.

This summer, residents and businesses at Grandview Yard can look forward to

welcoming a new neighbor.Northwestern Mutual is ex-

pecting to move from its loca-tion at 530 W. Spring St. into its newly leased, 19,000-square-foot space at Grandview Yard in mid-July. The larger space will give the central Ohio office the opportunity to expand and grow, potentially increasing its staff to around 80 employees.

Steve Childers, chief operating officer of the Columbus office, says the new facility will help North-western Mutual serve its central Ohio residents by attracting and retaining new associates.

“There were quite a few fac-tors that went into our ultimate decision to move to (Grandview Yard),” Childers says. “Anything from tax incentives to other things that play into it, like availability of desirable space. Overall, (Grandview Yard) allows for potential growth be-cause of the facilities that we’ll have. That’s the scenario that is a real benefit of moving there.”

Northwestern Mutual has been dedicated to helping clients achieve a lifetime of financial security through ex-tensive planning and advising for nearly 160 years. The Co-lumbus office has been active since 1886 and delivers expert financial guidance to about 40,000 central Ohio residents and businesses.

The new location at 800 Yard St. is part of a long-term plan to expand and improve the services Northwestern Mutual provides. Childers says the relocation from Spring Street to Grandview Yard is a strategic move that many busi-nesses make.

“They also factor in the ability to grow and advance their market and attract new employees,” he says. “The move itself does not provide immediate growth in overall net jobs … but by going there, it gives us the potential to more readily grow.”

The Grandview Yard project began in 2007, when Na-tionwide Realty Investors began plans to convert more than

GRANDVIEW HEIGHTS News & Information from the

City of Grandview Heights

100 acres of land into a neighborhood full of offices, restau-rants, retailers, apartments and hospitality units. The location is in a high-traffic area and is close to downtown Columbus, the Arena District and The Ohio State University’s campus, attracting many Columbus residents to Grandview Heights.

When Northwestern Mutual relocates to Grandview Yard this summer, it will join tenants such as LA Fitness, Hyatt Place hotel, Wright-Patt Credit Union and OhioHealth Urgent Care. Ernst & Young has also leased 15,000 square feet of space and expects to begin moving into this new location in May 2015.

“It’s a great thing we’re moving there. It’s all very positive,” Childers says. “It’s going to be great for our business and great for our employees. Bottom line, we’re all very excited about it and hope Grandview Heights is happy to have us as a tenant.”

Making TheGr deA

Jamie Lusher never thought she’d be in a position where she wasn’t teaching. Although she might not be in front of the classroom, as chief academic officer for Grand-view Heights City Schools, she plays an integral role in what children are learning.

Lusher’s responsibilities include executing the ever-chang-ing requirements of state-mandated testing and courses. Dubbed Ohio Learning Studies and otherwise known as Common Core, these requirements are sometimes a political hot-button issue.

Preparing students for the state assessments takes too much time, Lusher says. Third-grade reading tests that last 90, 75 and 60 minutes are “just too long.” At the end of the year, three or four days will be needed for reading assessment.

“Our goal is to be prepared,” Lusher says. The assess-ments require multiple steps – often a challenge students aren’t used to undertaking.

The state buys two tests for upper grades: one for Eng-lish, arts and mathematics, and one for science and social studies. Each class uses its own assessment method.

“We’re losing 17 days of instructional time because of as-sessments,” Lusher says, noting that state requirements have

Academic officers keep their districts ahead of the curve

Teaching and learning in the Grandview Heights and Upper Arlington school districts involve strikingly different administrative methods. Two women, each with deep backgrounds in education, are their chief academic officers. While they hold similar positions, each puts her

own unique spin on carrying out her district’s commitment to its students.

Emilie Greenwald has done it all in her 18 years as an educator.

She has gone from classroom teacher, to overseeing buildings from the principal’s office, to administrator. Now she’s in charge of academics and more in all eight Upper Ar-lington schools, with a population of almost 6,000 students.

Now in her second year as chief academic officer, Gre-enwald is helping to realize goals in the system’s three-year academic plan. The strategy is based on input from the community through various sources, including a survey and study groups to gauge residents’ expectations.

Greenwald has been in the Upper Arlington system since 2006. Prior to that, she was a math teacher at Lin-worth Alternative High School in Worthington, her home-town. Previously she served as a math teacher and head of the middle school at the Columbus Jewish Day School in New Albany and a math teacher at Worthington Kil-bourne High School and at Plain City’s Jonathan Alder High School.


changed several times even after the school year started.

Along with these issues is the need for profes-sional develop-ment of teach-ers, Lusher says, as their courses change and test-ing is mandated. C o l l a b o r a t i o n has been key in keeping teachers’ knowledge current.

Lusher often meets with teachers to discuss changing re-quirements and help them collaborate between grade levels, especially in elementary school, so all are familiar with what students have been or will be taught as they advance.

Additionally, Lusher has planned a three-day sympo-sium in August for teachers from Grandview, Hilliard and Worthington to share their experiences and knowledge across a variety of courses. All Grandview teachers have signed on, Lusher says.

Multimedia has also played a role in educating teachers. The school system’s website, www.ghcsd.org, features some of Lusher’s posts detailing teaching and learning goals and teaching practices.

Lusher carried out similar tasks in her previous position as coordinator of academic achievement for Worthington City Schools, where she was responsible for curriculum, instruc-tion and testing in 19 buildings. Prior to beginning her cur-rent position, Lusher had worked in education for 14 years. Previous roles include serving as principal at Wilson Hill Elementary School (Worthington) and New Albany Middle School, and as a teacher in Canal Winchester and at the Co-lumbus School for Girls.

The Powell resident and her husband, Ralph, are parents of two boys and two girls ages 3 to 16. Lusher graduated from University of Akron and played varsity basketball during her time there.

Lusher enjoys serving as an administrator in a small three-building district with 1,100 students. It is a nice con-trast to working in the much larger Worthington district.

“I see these people on a daily basis, which is really nice. In a bigger district, there’s a disconnect,” she says.

Grandview is rapidly making progress in adapting new standards, Lusher says.

“I like the challenges. It is so intimate,” she says.

Greenwald is a graduate of the University of Dayton with bachelor’s degrees in math and English and a mas-ter’s in educational leadership. She and her husband, Ian Brown, have two children and live in Worthington.

She arrived in Upper Arlington as assistant prin-cipal, and after six years, Greenwald became the high school principal for a year. As the school system’s admin-istration was reorganized, the academic officer position became available.

While the state’s testing and academic requirements have changed, Upper Arlington is dealing with it easily.

“We really took time to make sure we were imple-menting them. The rollout was done very thoughtfully. It wasn’t just a giant leap,” she says.

Greenwald’s staff includes directors of technology, el-ementary learning, accountability and professional devel-opment, and student services.

The state’s required change in courses and testing “has sparked some concern,” she acknowledges. She adds that she’s happy to speak to parents about any wor-ries they have.

“Our job is to make sure the kids are learning and achieving,” Greenwald says.

When new testing requirements come along, she says, it’s a delicate balance.

“We’ve spent some time looking at both special edu-cation and elementary literacy. If you give them a start in reading and literacy, they will do better in later grades,” she says.

Wider use of technology may help with more school-supplied devices for elementary students so they can use computers, laptops or tablets for classwork.

The three-year plan focuses on the district’s future. It outlines goals affecting performance, or academic ex-cellence, personalization, accountability and efficiency of schools, students and the district.

Personalized education is also important to the dis-trict. Some high school students take college courses and earn an interactive baccalaureate diploma, a step beyond the advanced placement classes that are popu-lar with students.

Achieving the diploma requires extensive study of courses in six subjects. In this way, students are intro-duced to the rigors of college study, Greenwald says.

Greenwald is optimistic about the achievements of her school system’s students and the academic programs geared to help them succeed: 90 percent of graduates go to college.

The ability to understand and use ad-vanced computer and industrial tech-nology becomes more valuable every

single day.And thanks to a new endeavor, stu-

dents in Upper Arlington and Grandview Heights city schools have greater access to those skills than ever before.

Those opportunities are coming via a partnership with Innovation Generation, as well as an agreement between the two school districts.

Innovation Generation, based in Reynoldsburg, works with 15 central Ohio school districts to provide technologi-cal opportunities to which their students might not otherwise have access. And the programs do more than expand stu-dents’ knowledge; they allow students the chance to obtain college credit, or work toward professional certification, teaching real-life problem-solving skills.

“Whether they’re going directly into a career or planning to go to college, this is preparing them for it,” says Marc Al-ter, instructional technology specialist for Grandview schools.

It’s funded by a $14.4 million Straight A Fund grant from the state, along with invest-ments from such entities as Battelle, JPMor-gan Chase and Columbus State Community College. Though 2014-15 is the first school year in which Innovation Generation cur-riculum has been offered, the Central Ohio Compact – a partnership among businesses, schools and the government, convened by Columbus State to improve from 30 to 60 the percentage of Ohio workers with edu-cation beyond high school by 2025 – was formed in 2012.

Students in UA and Grandview schools have access to three sets of Inno-vation Generation curriculum: advanced manufacturing and robotics, networking and digital technology, and Academy M.D.

program is the MIT Mobile Fab Lab, used in the advanced manufacturing and ro-botics curriculum. Most school districts that participate have a Fab (short for “fabrication”) Lab packed with equip-ment that can either be used in the mo-bile classroom itself or removed for use in the schools themselves; the vast majority of Grandview’s and UA’s equipment use takes place in the classroom.

The items students can use range from a 3D printer to a computer-controlled cut-ting router.

“They have 3D modeling software so they can design 3D problem-solving proj-ects,” says Alter.

Grandview industrial technology teacher Brad Gintert already had some of the cutting-edge equipment in his classroom, so when the district gained access to the Fab Lab, he worked with Upper Arlington of-ficials to divide the items between the two

school districts. Though some districts shut-tle the Fab Lab among schools, the equip-ment-sharing arrangement between Grand-view and Upper Arlington means each district has access to the necessary equip-ment without needing to move the mobile lab around, though UA does rotate some equipment between its two middle schools.

The advanced manufacturing and ro-botics classes are offered this year to sev-enth-graders, with curriculum expanding into later grades as students in the pro-gram get older.

“(Educational technology students) do design work, they do engineering work, they do robotics work,” says Emilie

Greenwald, chief academic officer at Upper Arlington.

Upper Arling-ton already had an extensive tech-nology education program for its middle-schoolers, focusing on proj-ect-based learning, Greenwald says. But Innovation Generation gives those ef-forts a significant upgrade – at no taxpayer expense, thanks to the grant.

“This takes it to the next level and brings in those extra things that we didn’t have, and gives our kids additional op-portunities in design and engineering,” says Greenwald.

The 3D printer alone has allowed stu-dents to learn how to create such items as custom cell phone cases, Alter says, and Gintert has invited other district teachers to bring his students problems they can use technology to solve. Students are even working with Paul Werth Associates to de-sign promotional materials for the Innova-tion Generation program itself.

“I like the idea that if you can imagine something, you can create it,” Alter says.

Academy M.D. is offered in Hilliard City Schools, but UA and Grandview stu-dents can sign up for it. It allows students to learn about medical technology, gain real work experience in partnership with medi-

cal and pharmaceutical organizations and earn college credit at Columbus State and, eventually, medical certification.

The networking and digital technol-ogy program, offered at the high school level, centers largely on information tech-nology, which is a major growth indus-try. Students learn both IT skills and the knowledge to use them with business pro-cesses, technical problem-solving, critical thinking and more. Not only can students earn college credit, but they can also work toward network certification through Cis-co Systems.

That program is offered at Upper Arlington High School, and Grandview students can sign up for it, as can Hilliard students. The introductory courses offered this year are computer science and basic networking.

The Wellington School is implement-ing a new classroom design that ac-commodates everyone from the vi-

sual to the kinesthetic learner. The private school, located in Upper

Arlington, already has three classrooms and one large lab space outfitted with the unique concept. Head of School Rob Brisk says the school expects to convert another 13 as quickly as possible.

“We started to look at different kinds of furniture that would add to flexibility, connectedness and mobility,” Brisk says. “That was the impulse.”

So, with the help of generous donors, Wellington got to work. Brisk says the

school looked at studies and spoke to teach-ers and students in search of what type of learning would best benefit students.

The survey found students wanted a classroom that would allow them to group up in clusters, work in teams, take part in individual research and use technology.

“We looked at classrooms most schools have. That (setup) serves so few of our edu-cational aims,” Brisk says, adding that most traditional classrooms have stationary desks that face toward the front of the room.

Wellington is adding furniture with wheels, and chairs crafted out of more comfortable materials.

Forward Movement Mobile classrooms appeal to all types of learners

By Hannah BealerPhotos courtesy of The Wellington School

Students utilize the mobile dry-erase boards in the classroom.

The classrooms’ mobile setup aims to accommodate every kind of learner.


“We wanted (chairs) that could be moved and easily regrouped,” Brisk says. “Ones that could be placed to listen to the teacher, but also be set up in all sorts of different ways, like for group work.”

The rooms also feature a higher level of technology than a traditional classroom. It’s easier for the students to share ideas with one another and communicate their instructions electronically, enabling them to share multiple pieces of work at the same time so they can collaborate, com-municate and critique each other’s work.

“There’s a constant ability to connect with the outside world,” Brisk says.

Smart Boards have been in Wel-lington’s classrooms for many years, but they’re always in front of the room, allow-ing the traditional setup that is no longer as appealing. The most popular mobile pieces in the classrooms are rolling white boards. It’s a fairly simple and common concept, and it’s certainly not a new one, Brisk says, but it’s made a world of differ-ence to the students and how they learn and present their individual thoughts.

“They allow students to post their work and share their ideas for critique and discussion,” Brisk says.

In the new classrooms, technology is mobile. Screens can be viewed from all an-gles and directions, and students can plug their computers into a large screen so their work can be viewed by the entire class. There are also charging stations through-out, rather than the traditional handful of electrical outlets.

The school expects to turn to the lower grades after this work is done.

“This is just the starting point,” Brisk says. “We could not have done it with-out the donors, and we’re always deeply thankful to them.”

Brisk says the school has received excellent feedback from the students and teachers.

“It’s been transformative for many of them, in terms of the classroom experi-ence,” he says, adding that many students are often eager to use the large lab space for their classroom activities.

Because the classroom can be recon-figured by easily sliding around its furni-ture, one space can look three different ways in the same hour. This simple ap-proach can make the classroom space ac-cessible to all types of learners.

“We do not believe in a lockstep ap-proach, with 16-20 students all in heavy desks that are facing forward,” Brisk says. “There’s the expectation that students are all moving forward in the same way.”

If you are in a fixed, immobile class-room, you are only serving one kind of learner, he says.

For the most part, the reconfigured class-rooms are designed for multi-departmental use. For example, a computer science class could use the space, but so could an art and design class or an English class.

“You can use the same facilities in some intriguing and different ways,” Brisk says.

When Mim Braaten decided she wanted to start fostering kit-tens, she didn’t have to look far

to find the best place to keep them. With its ample windows and French

doors, Braaten’s sun room is a temporary paradise for cats waiting until they’re old enough to be adopted. The house’s pre-vious owners added the 20-by-11-foot room off the garage before the Braatens moved in. Tile floors allow for easy clean-ing, and blanketed cupboard areas make perfect nests for pregnant cats. Perhaps most importantly, the double doors that separate it from the rest of the house are a boon for Braaten’s husband, Eric, who is allergic to cats.

“We really didn’t have a purpose for the room, so it’s ideal,” Braaten says.

Braaten started fostering cats about 14 years ago after Eric’s co-worker told her about Pets without Parents, a nonprofit, no-kill Clintonville organization. Braaten, who was intrigued by the idea of working around her husband’s allergy, decided to give it a try herself.

“It was hard at first because the kids were younger,” Braaten says.

The idea of remaining unattached to their new small and fluffy housemates was

difficult for daughters Emily and Valerie, then 10 and 7. But knowing that more kit-tens would eventually replace the current ones helped them adapt, Braaten says.

Like her daughters, Braaten counted animals as friends during her childhood, though her mother never let them keep more than one cat and one dog. Still, the experience taught Braaten that it was pos-sible for cats to be friends with dogs.

The Braatens’ dog, Penny, is a living example of this. At nine years old, the chow, Doberman pinscher and border col-lie mix has seen many cats come and go, and her habitual presence in the sun room helps the cats learn how to socialize with canine companions.

Though Braaten started out fostering, three of the rescued have become perma-nent residents. Interestingly enough, Eric finds he is not allergic to the cats if he is exposed to them as kittens.

Their one-eyed black cat, Jackie, was the first feline to graduate from foster to house cat. Brown tabby Izzy followed that. Last of all was Monty, a gray tabby who likes visiting the sun room to play with the foster cats. The young cat went home with three different people who, for various reasons, decided they couldn’t adopt him.

“He’s been ours ever since,” Braaten says. Though Monty enjoys playing with

his new companions, Braaten says she’s careful never to introduce him to a mother cat and her kittens, because the mother is territorial and also untested for health is-sues. Usually Braaten fosters a litter of kit-tens, about four wee ones at a time.

On one memorable occasion, two well-timed deliveries made for quite a crowded sun room. Three days apart, one cat delivered four kittens, while her sister

Braaten entertains Wobbles, a cat with cerebellar hypoplasia. Both Wobbles and his sister, Weebles, have since been adopted.

The Braatens’ dog, Penny, keeps a watchful eye on 13 kittens.

delivered seven. To top it off, Braaten ac-quired two more orphan kittens from Pets Without Parents.

“I think the mothers were so over-whelmed with already 11 kittens that they easily accepted two more,” Braaten says.

The mothers would take turns nurs-ing the kittens, and neither the kittens nor the mothers knew to which brood they belonged.

“It was very much like a co-op,” Braaten says.

Sometimes Braaten gets the oppor-tunity to foster cats that are a bit older. When she was returning kittens to the shelter last February, she noticed a sister and a brother that were still rather small. The cats suffered from cerebellar hypopla-sia, a disorder in cats and dogs that affects their mobility.

“Out of all the years I’ve fostered, I’ve never heard of this,” Braaten says.

Because of their dis-ability, the cats require grain-free food and plenty of room in which to move around. They also have to maintain a healthy weight to aid in mobility.

“I’ve kind of watched them grow up,” Braaten says.

The duo – aptly named Weebles and Wobbles – stayed with her for 11 months. Both cats have since been adopted. Typi-cally, Braaten fosters newborn kittens for about eight weeks, though it can vary if the kittens are already a couple of weeks old.

When Braaten isn’t caring for cats, she works part-time for Upper Arlington

City Schools providing office substitu-tion support. Eric teaches physics

at The Ohio State University. Originally from Green Bay, Wis., Braaten moved with her family to Upper Ar-lington in 1996 for Eric’s teaching career. Emily and Valerie, now 23 and 21, are

attending school on the east and west coasts, respectively. So while the home may not

be filled with her daughters like it once was, Braaten will most likely have numer-ous feline friends in her future.

“I feel like I’m making a difference one stray at a time – sometimes more than one,” she says.

For a while, Wobbles was the sole foster cat in the Braatens’ 20-by-11-foot sun room.

Once home to large trucks and water hoses, the Old Coach Road fire station in Upper Ar-

lington is now home to pursuits of a de-cidedly more domestic kind.

Cooking instruction, along with many of the city’s other Lifelong Learning and Leisure classes, is now at the Recreation Station, a fire station from 1957 to 2010. The classes introduce participants to different types of food and cooking, and each class has a theme.

Other programs include tastings at restaurants and partnerships with other businesses and chefs

around Columbus, such as the Refectory in north-west Columbus, the Cooking Cottage in Marble Cliff

and well-known chef Shawnie Kelley Foy.“When people take a cooking class, I find that they

like a well-rounded experience, not just the recipe. They really like the sideline bells and whistles – hearing about

At the end of the class, participants are given recipes they learned that day so they may try them at home. Some pro-

grams have seasonal aspects, such as tast-ing wines that particularly complement the winter season and seasonal recipes to jazz up a traditional Easter meal.

At the Recreation Station, an instruc-tor provides background about the region and history of that day’s cuisine and dem-onstrates cooking the authentic recipes.

Students also participate in prepar-ing the fruits of their labor. The partner-ship with Cookie Cottage allows for a small number of people, usually five to 10, to bake from scratch onsite at the establishment.

Other classes focus more on con-suming than creating. At Diversity Din-ing classes, participants sample various dishes, family-style, at a restaurant. There are also wine, beer and spirit tastings.

Past classes have included learning to make three unique types of dim sum baskets at Panda Inn, a demonstration by a sushi chef from Akai Hana Restau-rant, a tea and scones class at the Cook-ing Cottage and Brew Master for a Day, a brewing class at North High Brewing.

A library doesn’t just house books. It also is a central com-munity space for the exchange of ideas.

The Upper Arlington Public Library branches offer free public meeting rooms for both cultural activities and non-profit meetings. A wide array of groups and organizations take advantage of these free rooms on a first-come, first served basis. The following is a small sampling of the groups that use the library’s space.

Historic HavenThe Columbus Barracks Civil War Round Table is where

members can discuss and share knowledge of one of the most significant wars in American history.

“We usually meet on the second Thursday of each month, except December, from 7 to 9 p.m. to present and discuss vari-ous topics about the American Civil War,” says meeting coordi-nator John Young. Meetings are held at the Main branch.

The oldest continuous group in central Ohio area has around 30 members, Young says. Meetings are free. Members share a passion for American war history in presentations to their peers.

“Our members have varying degrees of knowledge and in-terest in the Civil War, but they all do their best to prepare and present interesting and diverse topics pertaining to all aspects of

it,” Young says. “We all enjoy learning more about it and sharing what we know with others.”

Fun with WordsScrabble Lovers of Columbus, founded in 2009, holds

weekly open play sessions for fans of the timeless game. Joyce Jacobson is one of these fans.

“I joined Scrabble Lovers of Columbus because I wanted to be part of a group of welcoming and smart people, having fun playing something mentally challenging,” says Jacobson.

On Saturday afternoons and Monday evenings members of all skill levels play and at the Upper Arlington Main Library or Kroger in the Brewery District, Jacobson says.

“Our interest is in recruiting new people to play scrabble and, if interested, to join some of our mem-bers who play competitively,” Jacob-son says.

Deustchland DeliveryGermany Philatelic Society is one

of many chapters in a national com-munity of German stamp collectors, jurors, exhibitors and postal histori-ans. Founded in 1949, the Germany Philatelic Society includes around 1,250 members in major cities na-tionwide. The group meets on the third Sunday of each month at the Tremont Road library.

Over the course of one day, Bob-by learns that monsters are not always what they seem.

Absolutely AlmostBy Lisa Graff (grades 4-6)Albie has never been the smart-est kid in his class. He has never been the tallest, or the best at gym, or the greatest artist or the most musical.

But then Albie gets a new babysitter, Calista, who helps him figure out all of the things he is good at and how he can take pride in himself.

Courage for BeginnersBy Karen Harrington (grades 5-8)Seventh grade is not turning out the way Mysti had planned. With the help of a hot-air balloon, her new friend Rama Khan and a bright orange coat, can she find the courage to change?

The Year of Billy MillerBy Kevin Henkes (grades 1-3)When Billy Miller has a mishap at the statue of the Jolly Green Giant at the end of summer vacation, he ends up with a big lump on his head. What a way to start second grade, with a lump on your head!

The Year of Living Virtuously: Weekends Off By Teresa Jordan Founding father Benjamin Frank-lin was an inventor. At the age of 20, he set himself to the task of inventing a better version of himself.

The Drowned World By J.G. Ballard This exciting post-apocalyptic novel is set in London, which is completely flooded due to solar radiation. Though it was written in 1962, it is eerily similar to the dis-cussion of climate change today. As earth warms to extreme tem-peratures and the ice caps begin to melt, many people choose to flee north while some are driven by inexplicable urges to journey south into the building heat.

Just Girls By Rachel GoldJess Tucker hates bullies. So when she overhears a group of girls gossiping about a new transgender student on campus, she confronts them and claims that she’s the student they’re gossiping about. Jess’ brave act has far-reaching consequences not only for Jess, but for the student she’s protecting: Ella Ramsey, Jess’ game-loving, sci-ence- obsessed roommate. This is a well-written, fast-paced con-temporary novel of friendship set at a fictional Ohio college.

Neverhome: A NovelBy Laird Hunt In this lyrical Civil War novel, an Indiana woman leaves behind her husband and disguises herself as a man in order to enlist with the Union. Ash Thompson’s journey to war and back is a legendary one, dotted with strange encoun-ters, eccentric figures, near-miss escapes and harrowing flights, as well as persistent questions: Why does she feel she can’t return? Why did she leave in the first place? And is she really telling the truth?
