We didn't forget ....
The annual neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt will take place this Saturday at the Badger Home located at 7633 Keats in the backyard beginning at 9:30 a.m. at the top of the hill. Parking is available at the church. You'll see us out there hunting for eggs. I have to go to a bell choir practice so I would appreciate if anyone can stay from 10:20 until 11 a.m.
Why is the Easter Egg Hunt at the Badger Home? Mrs. Badger let us use her backyard last year so she could watch the kids from her kitchen window and my daughter suggested we do it again even though Mrs. Badger will be with us in spirit.
I also hope that all our View Place family & neighbors will take every opportunity to see the home before it goes on the market this Monday.... it's such a beautiful home and if my chimney wasn't leaking right now I would buy it in a heartbeat. But I can't sell my home with a leaky chimney, right?
The home is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. No leaks. And remember this is the home Art Badger built after they moved from their home on Brucehills to make way for Ronald Reagan Hwy. I hope somebody out there will appreciate the historic significance of this home. The Badgers were respected by the neighborhood and also much beloved by the kids who are all grown up raising their own families ... hint ... hint ....
Hope to see you at the Easter Egg Hunt!!!!!

Landfill Update on Northbend ...
Dan Taphorn, an urban conservationist with Hamilton County Soil & Water Division met with Mr. Kendall late in 2007. He learned that the District made Mr. Kendall re-seed a few areas where the previous seeding had not taken because of the drought. As far as the District is concerned Mr. Kendall’s project is complete and no more fill should be taking place.
I understand that Mel Rack now owns an acre of ground formally owned by Mr. Kendall and that he is installing a driveway for access to this property. We do not have issues with the driveway being installed on the Rack property, if he (Mel Rack) wants to accept fill he needs to file for an Earthwork Permit.
Have any questions give Dan Taphorn a call.

Message from Randy Parsons, School Superintendent
Dear Donna,
I was happy we had an opportunity to talk earlier this week to address some of the questions about our high school program.
Concerning AP classes, we have not reduced, nor are there plans to reduce, our AP offerings. However, as our total student population gets smaller, it may to make sense to examine creative scheduling strategies – perhaps combining some classes, or offering some classes on alternating years. The data shows, however, that over the last five years, the number of students taking AP exams has increased from 69 in 2003 to 114 in 2007, with a corresponding increase in the number of students receiving Advanced Placement College Credit. (Last year we had 5 National Merit Semi-finalists and 1 Finalist.)
As for the scheduling issues, we are aware of only one student who was closed out of an AP class this summer. This student was in many other high level classes. Again, a smaller high school program naturally results in a tighter, less flexible master schedule with a greater likelihood of single course offerings. We believe this challenge is offset by the many advantages of attending a small school!
Although the state and federal (No Child Left Behind) accountability/testing programs have highlighted in recent years the need to provide intervention to struggling students, this does not need to be at the expense of meeting the needs of our academically talented students. We need to do both.
We also talked about the need to make sure the good news about Finneytown gets into the local press. Shawn Maus, our Communications Coordinator, sends 5 – 7 items per week out to the media. All of the news items that appear on our website are sent to them. It is solely their choice what to print.
I hope this response is helpful. Please let me know if you have additional questions, and let me know that you received this email. I would be happy to speak with anyone who has individual concerns. Your support in helping to facilitate good communication is greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,
Randy

letter from Georgia ...
I grew up on Deanview and remembe Mrs. Badger saying good morning to us daily from her house when we’d wait for the school bus. Sometimes, just for fun, some of us would drop in after school and visit her, Mr. Badger, and their dog. They were truly wonderful people. I also remember the sign they always had up each year – season’s greetings from art and mary badger. They also were known for being the most generous to all of us at Halloween.
They were truly wonderful folks in every way possible. I’ve not lived in View Place since 1990 but it was wonderful, and came as no surprise, to read that the Badgers carried on as they always had, loving and giving to those around them.

Two Cats Still Missing ...
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE ...
CONTACT Viewplacenews@yahoo.com if you see a short haired black cat and long hair grey cat roaming around upper end of Viewplace, Wellesley or Pinebrook.
There are two little (SAD) girls who are missing their cats! Both cats pretty much stayed in the yard although the grey cat was known for crossing over to the Jesuit house...

New Excavation on Northbend Road behind St. X??
I would like to know what is happening to the hillside on North Bend Rd behind the St. Xavier ballfield. It saddens me to see yet another forested area destroyed. Thank you. Teri from Keats Lane
Pinebrook Court Update
If you have been in the vicinity of Pinebrook Court lately, you are well aware that we are in the process of rebuilding our home. It was basically deemed a total loss, and because of that, we had the remaining structure torn down and opted to start fresh. We were able to save the foundation...which is why we are so far along in the rebuilding process all ready!
This house does look a little different than it did before, but soon the same old people will be living there and our lives will hopefully return to normal.
Since the fire, we spent 5 weeks living with my parents, Al and Kathy Humbert. They live in the area, so we were able to still be close to home. Then we were able to find a house to rent on Shuman Lane. This is in the area behind Brentwood Shopping Center. It is not exactly what we are used to, but it has worked out for the summer and into the fall. If all goes well, and so far it has, we should be able to move back onto Pinebrook in late November...so we could be HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS!
Since the fire, we have been blessed in many ways, our friends in the area have been WONDERFUL. Looking out for our interests right after the fire happened and continuing to look out for us now. It is great to see so many smiling faces every day, as we travel in and out of View Place to drop off our girls at the babysitters. As of July, we have our newest addition as well. Lillian Claire Schwartz was born on July 21st and has been the best distraction possible after all of this fire stuff we have been dealing with! She is wonderful and her sisters, Hannah, Grace and Katherine, and her brother Joey, love her to death. We can't wait to introduce her to the View Place neighborhood

Mrs. Mary Badger Passed Away Last Night ...
Mary Badger's sister called this morning with very sad news. Mrs. Badger slipped away last night, Wednesday, October 3, around midnight. A visitation for Mrs. Badger is planned at Hodapp in Carthage this Sunday, October 7th from 3 to 5 p.m.
Recently, Mrs. Badger was diagnosed with an advanced stage of cancer. Late in September, she received her first chemo treatment and due to complications from pneumonia, she was rushed to the hospital on Saturday, Sept. 29th and remained until Wednesday, when her family decided to bring her home for respite.
Mrs. Badger will always be remembered by family, friends, and neighbors as being a kindred spirit, a naturalist, and a devoted wife. The neighborhood children growing up in View Place will always remember the Badger home to be a safe haven; a place to discover important values that would help shape their true character and help define their purpose in life which is always to serve others.
For Mr. and Mrs. Badger:
"The present flowed by them like a stream. The tree rustled. It had made music before they were born, and would continue after their deaths, but its song was of the moment. The moment had passed. The tree rustled again. Their senses were sharpened, and they seemed to apprehend life. Life passed. The tree rustled again."- E.M. Forster

CATS ARE MISSING: REPORT ABUSES 541-6100
Reported Sept. 12, 2007
WE HAVE DEER, WE HAVE MICE. THESE TWO ARE VERY INTERDEPENDENT AND CANNOT EXIST WITHOUT THE OTHER. Okay, I'm stretching it a little here but the fact is that if there is an abundance of deer, there will be even more of mice. With it being so dry, those little critters are going to be in our houses soon looking for water.
THAT'S WHY WE NEED CATS.
LATELY, COME OF OUR FELINE FRIENDS HAVE GONE MISSING OR HAVE BEEN MAULED by doggies. If you own a doggy and you do not keep it in on your own property, you run the risk of facing animal cruelty charges.
Through the grapevine, I heard that a dog mauled to death a child's beloved pet cat. The other cats are also missing. If you see any dog, including mine, running the neighborbood, dumping over garbage like I saw on Beechtree yesterday, please call the
SPCA 541-6100.

Yard Sales and the Criminal Element ...
Shortly after our community yard sale, one of the homes on Pinebrook was the target of theft. Since there was no sign of forced entry according to my source, there was some speculation that the thieves "cased" the home beforehand possibly during our community yard sale.
A few years back, one of our neighbors invited a sales person from a virtually unknown window company for an estimate and a few weeks later, their home was broken into. What was unusual about this break in was that the thieves took little things that were in clear view ... jewelry on the bathroom sink ... knicknacks on tables ... it appeared to be quick sweep with no time for unplugging televisions or dvd players.
At one of our last safety meetings, the Chief of Police urged residents to keep our homes secured by locking the doors, closing the garage doors, and reporting any suspicious cars or people in the neighborhood so they have it logged in. It may be all very innocent -- that strange car parked in front of our neighbor's home on vacation -- but AT LEAST THE POLICE WILL HAVE SOMETHING ON RECORD TO GO BY IN CASE IT WASN'T SOMEBODY THE FAMILY KNOWS.
PLEASE, DO NOT BE EMBARRESSED TO CONTACT SPRINGFIELD TWP. POLICE, THEY WANT TO HELP US BACK HERE BECAUSE THEY ARE PROUD OF THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, TOO.

Homes for Sale in View Place
If your neighbor's home has a "for sale" sign up front, take the time to go over during the "open house" or talk to any of the interested home buyers to let them know about View Place and the neighborhood in general.
A few times, I've attended the open houses to let prospective buyers know how much we take pride in our neighborhood, the history, the responsibility we share to keep up the value in all our homes, and general information about the township.
Many of the prospects were very appreciative that a neighbor stopped by to answer questions or to assure them that this is a neighborhood worth their investment or a good place to raise children.
Mrs. Sondra Merusi over on Blossom Hill is a realtor who is always happy to help out with questions. She has come to aide of many home buyers. Since she lives right here in View Place, she has a personal interest in representing all of us when it comes to selling or buying a home here.
If you have any questions for Sondra, contact our viewplacenews@yahoo mailbox and put a "forward to Sondra" in the subject box.

About Rumpke ...
More News from James Wright ... In case you didn't get to the bottom of the last post ...
Rumpke has resumed a yard waste pick up service, free of charge to Springfield Township residents. Therefore, the Township Service Department will no longer be picking up leaves in the fall as one of the many services offered to residents. Elimination of this service by the Township will save more than 800 man-hours now spent by Service Department employees
