Elder students show support for the troops By Kurt Backscheider kbackscheider@communitypress.com

A group of students at Elder High School are making sure military servicemen know they have support from the West Side. Members of the school’s Support the Troops Club recently sent care packages to 26 Elder alumni who are serving in the armed forces throughout the world. “It’s a great way for us to give back,” said junior Brandon Bell, a Delhi Township resident whose older brother is in the U.S. Navy. “Our troops do so much for us. The club is a great way for us to thank our heroes.” Elder junior Ben Smith, a Delhi resident, said club members wrote letters to each serviceman and organized an outof-uniform day at school to raise money to buy items for the care packages. He said each care package contained Elder gear, snacks, Skyline chili, Montgomery Inn barbecue sauce, powdered drink mixes, a letter, a greeting card from Elder faculty and

staff and a wrapped Christmas gift. Matthew Maloney, a junior from Sayler Park whose older brother serves in the U.S. Army, said the club raised enough money from the out-ofuniform day to buy all the servicemen the newest Batman movie on DVD. “We wanted to try to get the whole school involved so everyone could show respect for what our military members do,” he said. Brian Bill, Elder’s assistant development/alumni relations director, said the Support the Troops Club is an outgrowth of an effort called Project Support, which was started by former Elder teacher Mike Honold in the 1960s to support men serving in the Vietnam War. Project Support eventually ran its course, but Bill said Elder graduate Matt Brannon built upon Project Support’s foundation when he started the Support the Troops Club with classmate Ben Combs in 2008 during their senior year. “We hope for this club to conSee TROOPS, Page A2

Shouting the good news in Price Hill By Kurt Backscheider kbackscheider@communitypress.com

Price Hill Will is helping residents and business owners spread the word about the positive things happening in the community. The organization is presenting a second Shout from the Hill Top session from 1:30-3:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 16, at the Warsaw Project Gallery, 3116 Warsaw Ave. Matt Strauss, director of marketing and neighborhood promotion for Price Hill Will, said the organization always makes an effort to let people know about the good things taking place in Price Strauss Hill, and they thought it would be valuable if the residents and business owners who are helping the neighborhood progress could get involved in spreading some of the good news. “Why not let the people who are actually here on the ground every day in Price Hill help inform others about the positive stories in the neighborhood,” Strauss said. “Shout from the Hill Top is a chance to empower them to do it and teach them the tools they need to do it.” He said the first Shout from the Hill Top session in early December covered safety and business development, but there was so much good information presented that they ran out of time before they could talk about ways to communicate the news. The upcoming session will focus on how to spread the good news stories that tend to get overlooked, he said. The session will provide an overview of how to publicize the neighborhood and tell people what’s happening, including the use of social media and person-to-person outreach, he said. More sessions could take place in the future if those who attend are interested, and Strauss said Price Hill Will might look into offering evening sessions and possibly bringing in specialists to share their knowledge. “We’ll let the group decide how they want to proceed,” he said. Those interested in attending the Jan. 16 session are asked to RSVP by contacting Strauss at 251-3800, extension 105 or via email at matt@pricehillwill.org. Folks can also sign up to attend on Price Hill Will’s Facebook page. Vol. 86 No. 1 © 2013 The Community Press ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

“It’s neat to see the students have an interest in it.” Elder junior Daniel Fishburn, of Delhi, said there are roughly 25 students in the club this school year. He said they all enjoyed shopping for the items for the care packages and packing them up for shipment. “The troops put their lives on the line for us,” Fishburn said. “This was a chance for us to support them and hopefully make their lives a little more enjoyable.”

Delhi sewer work to begin By Monica Boylson mboylson@communitypress.com

The Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati will begin work to replace a Delhi Township pump station and install new sewers beginning the week of Jan. 14. The pump station on Dellers Glen Drive that helps regulate sewage overflow will be eliminated and 210 feet of 8-inch pipe will be installed to connect the sewage system of Heavenly Lane to Dellers Glen Drive. Michele Ralston, spokeswoman for MSD, said the project is part of the sewer district’s Pro-

ject Groundwork – an initiative to comply with federal and state mandates to manage combined sewer overflows. “The project will save

money by eliminating the operation cost of the pump station and it will reduce potential sewer backups,” she said. The total construction

cost is $263,000 and is funded by MSD. Ralston said customers will not see a direct increase in their billing as a result of the project. Construction should be complete by July 1. Residents in the affected area have been notified of the project which will also include the installation of a new manhole. “We will be doing everything we can to minimize inconvenience to the residents,” she said. For additional information about the project, contact MSD’s engineering customer service line at 557-3594 or go to www.msdgc.org.

Program highlights historic homes By Monica Boylson mboylson@communitypress.com

The Delhi Historical Society is hosting a free program about the homes and history of Riverside at 7 p.m. Monday, Jan. 14, at the Delhi Park Lodge, 5125 Foley Road. Local architect and home preservationist David Zelman will discuss the significance of the Riverside area and its wealthy past, housing Cincinnati families such as Longworth, Fleischmann and Yeatman to name a few. “We talk about the fact that really until the 20th century, Riverside was home to some of the wealthiest people,” he said. He also said the area was once home to commercial wine making. Many homes had vineyards and even produced wine on site. “Nicholas Longworth and Thomas Yeatman had estates in Riverside and they were making wine to sell consistently,” he said.

Colgate senior Eric Taber in Nepal. PROVIDED

Oak Hills grads treks in Nepal Oak Hills High School graduate Eric Taber imagined a trek through the sprawling Annapurna Conservation Area of Nepal (ACA) would be the best way to study the impact of ongoing road development in the region. Thanks to an Alumni Memorial Scholar fellowship, he was able to go there himself. Taber, a senior biology and geography major at Colgate University, spent more than two weeks trekking124 miles with his Nepali guide and translator. Their journey ranged from low-lying tropical areas to alpine elevations of 18,000 feet. Along the way, Taber interviewed more than 60 people about new road construction cutting through the ecologically diverse region. “I was interested in

learning about the locals’ perceptions of the construction and the implications that it might have on the conservation in that area,” Taber said. “It really fits nicely as a case study.” Taber and all students selected for the AMS program are eligible to apply for a fellowship of up to $5,000 for research or to facilitate academically meaningful internships or experiences beyond the formal curriculum at Colgate. For Taber, the scholarship was the deciding factor in his coming to Colgate, which is in Hamilton, N.Y. According to Eddie Watkins, assistant professor of biology, Taber is is one of the most broadly interested and focused students he has known in his time at Colgate.

“Indefatigable would describe him well. Eric has been a steadfast member of my lab research group, even when his interest has moved to issues more socio-environmental. Indeed, he first started in my lab looking at the impacts of an invasive species on an endangered plant,” said Watkins, who is Taber’s academic adviser. While talking with locals on the trail, Taber said he found the issues in Nepal’s ACA area to be more nuanced than just economic impacts to the trekking industry. Road development opens up increased access to services such as medical care, and farmers can reach more markets in larger population centers. However, ecological impacts include new dam construc-

Exchange club changing name The Western Hills Exchange Club has changed its name to The Western Hills Community Service Club. The original club formed in 1977 to raise money to aid local West Side organizations which fight child abuse, and to present scholarships in recognition of outstanding seniors from each of the six local West Side high schools. Over the years, the club has donated more than $225,000 to support local charities and awarded $75,000 in scholarships. Today’s difficult economy is causing the charities to be in greater need, so club members are hoping to expand their sup-

port in order to help even more of the deserving children from Cincinnati’s west side. To do this, The Western Hills Community Service Club is seeking new members. The weekly breakfast meetings are on Thursdays at 8 a.m. at the Nathanael Greene Lodge, 6394 Wesselman Road. Each week a guest speaker addresses the group and the meeting adjourns around 9 a.m. Along with a name change, the club has a new dues structure; one cost which is geared for regular attendees and a reduced amount for those not able to attend on a weekly basis. Both individual and corporate

memberships are available. Current members agree that in addition to interesting speakers, meetings also provide a venue to discuss current events and to enjoy traditional West Side camaraderie. Consider joining The Western Hills Community Service Club – stop by on a Thursday morning for a complimentary breakfast and to meet the membership. To find out more about the club, contact Andy Bucher at 347-3600 or andy@buchercpa.com ; Tom Prince at 922-3767 or tprince100@gmail.com; Jim Miceli at 941-3333 or jmiceli@fuse.net.

tion on the rivers and the emergence of truck traffic. “Even the tea house workers weren’t strongly opposed to the road because they recognized some of the benefit,” Taber said. “Even those that are struggling financially, those talking about having to close their tea house are very aware of the benefits that the road is bringing to others in the community.” Taber is deciding where to apply for graduate schools. He is a member of the campus Sustainability Council, and last summer also traveled to Siberia to study climate change. “He certainly has a brilliant future ahead of him ...” Watkins said. “He has been a wonderful colleague these last four years.”

Historical Society Museum Coordinator Peg Schmidt explained that the Riverside area extends from Fairbanks Avenue to Bender Road. The historic homes were littered along 7 miles of the Ohio River. Zelman will talk about 29 Riverside homes on River Road, Tyndall Avenue, Halsey Avenue, Hillside Avenue, Pattison Street and Princeton Street. “The western riverfront has a rich history,” he said. The program will last about an hour and is open to the public. For more information, email delhi.history@fuse.net or call 451-4313.

Mental changes positive for Elder’s Evan Morgan Junior wrestler wins at Sample Classic

By Tom Skeen tskeen@communitypress.com

PRICE HILL — Many athletes have a moment in time they can look back on and say “that is when it clicked for me.” For Elder High School junior Evan Morgan, that moment came last season at the district wrestling meet when he lost to Sidney’s Mason Calvert, giving Calvert his 100th career victory. “Seeing him get his 100th win against me broke me,” Morgan said. “I wrestled him over the summer and I was whooping up on him. Personally I think I’ve made a great leap since then.” So what is the difference between the Morgan of last season and the Morgan of this season? His mental approach. “Last year I was just getting used to new technique, getting my game plan and maturing as a wrestler,” he said. “… I’ve always kind of choked up a little bit, but now I’ve got my mental focus and mental attitude down and it’s really helped me.” His new approach helped him win the 138-pound champi-

onship at the Southwest Ohio Wrestling Coaches Association Glen Sample Classic Dec. 16 and a fifth-place finish at the Brecksville Holiday Tourna-

ment Dec. 27. “It motivated me,” Morgan said about winning the Glen Sample Classic. “I realized it’s a big tournament and I am very

blessed and grateful to win it, but that (tournament) is only (Southwest Ohio). Hearing people talk about how my weight class is weak, it just motivated me and showed me that I can be a state-caliber wrestler and be the best.” Elder coach Dick McCoy likes what he is seeing from his junior this season and is noticing Morgan’s adjustment in the mental game. “I tell these guys all the time once they get to a certain point in the season, wrestling becomes 90 percent mental and10 percent physical,” McCoy said. “Sometimes high school kids don’t get that. In Evan’s case that was kind of the thing. His mental approach is different. He still has a ways to go, but right now he is on a pretty good roll as far as mental toughness goes.” After back-to-back seasonending losses at the district tournament his freshmen and sophomore seasons, the junior believes this is his year to reach state. “Personally I think I got over that hump and am just working at it,” Morgan said. “I’m practicing two, three times a day with a variety of coaches just working and drilling. I think this year is my year.”

Boys swimming » Elder finished third behind Lakota East (174) and Lakota West (163) at a quad-match Dec. 22. Junior Ben Hayhow won the 100-yard butterfly for the Panthers’ lone victory.

An apology

I apologize to Jennifer and Bill Brune and anyone else I may offend in my writings. (“Disappointed with attitude” Jan 2.) Having a long history of being active in many Price Hill civic groups I am especially mindful of the unwarranted negative press that Price Hill receives. So, I would never intentionally suggest that those who live in Price Hill are not “proud and happy residents” of

a “beautiful community.” It’s disappointing to learn that my honest efforts to improve Price Hill are not appreciated. It is also disappointing knowing that when Covedale residents speak positively about their neighborhood they are accused by some of “stereotyping and having a judgmental attitude toward Price Hill residents.” Can someone please explain the root of this paranoia? Jim Grawe Covedale

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

COMMUNITY CommunityPress.com

Price Hill is a stepchild Growing up, any of us knew step-children. They may have lived with the family but they were always treated a little different. Sometimes they did not get to set at the table to eat, or maybe they even slept in the basement, wore hand-me-down clothes and the like. Several items appeared in the news lately that made me, a life-long resident of Price Hill, feel like a “stepchild of the city” First off an article regarding Price Hill leading in homicides. What can the city expect when they encourage a bunch of undesirables such as drug dealers and prostitutes go find a place to live in Price Hill. I was actually at a meeting where a group from one of these neighborhoods was complaining about being displaced because the city was deciding to tear down their houses and a person from city administration told them their was plenty of nice housing on the West Side. The other day I saw where

there was a fire in the area around the University of Cincinnati, suddenly the area is no longer Clifton Larry Schmolt or Corryville COMMUNITY PRESS or the like, suddenly it GUEST COLUMNIST has a nice new name like University Heights. For the past five or six years I have seen a group struggle to have their neighborhood called something else, being it was on the West Side, council has refused to listen to their plea. In this same pereiod of time I have watched as new neighborhoods were being created, such as Riverview, the Banks, Spring Grove Village, etc. One has to wonder does the council really have to create a neighborhood. When Mr. Price built an Incline and decided that Price’s Hill would be a good name to sell lots, what happened to War-

saw or Cedar Grove? Just like stepchildren we get a few crumbs off the table. Look at the new school they built which looks like a box store; go take a look at the Taj Mahal they built on Central Parkway. New firehouses were built in several neighborhoods throughout the city at a cost of $5 or $6 million, again a rebuilt house that is some 70 years old is good enough for the Hill. A police station has been in the making for the past 25 years; it is so small the officers even have been relocated to a firehouse across the street that was built for horses. I encourage you as residents of the Hill to get in your car some Sunday and take a ride around the different neighborhoods on the East Side and after returning to the Hill you will agree that we on the West Side are a bunch of stepchildren.

Larry Schmolt is a life-long resident of Price Hill.

Library can save your time, money Save time and money this year at your public library As the manager of the Green Township Branch Library, I challenge my staff every day to help customers make use of the Library’s resources and services.

Use your library card to check out the latest bestsellers, top albums, newest DVD releases, and favorite magazines for free instead of paying for book club selections, CDs, movie rentals, and magazine subscriptions. 2. Instead of joining an expensive gym, get new exercise routines every week from

the library’s DVD collection. You can find everything from aerobics to Zumba. 3. From learning basic Kathy Taylor COMMUNITY PRESS keyboard skills to masGUEST COLUMNIST tering Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, the library offers free computer labs and workshops.

Plus, download e-books from the library directly to your smartphone. 7. Use your library card to download five free songs a week – that are yours to keep – from Freegal. Choose from Sony Music’s catalog and download them directly to your computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone. 8. Impress your boss with your prudent nature by hold-

Reduce air pollution year round Particulate matter (PM) is a type of air pollution that can occur year round. PM comes from wood burning, motor vehicles, industrial operations, and power generation. By reducing PM emissions in the winter you can to protect your heath, lower your energy bills and save gas money. This winter, there are multiple ways you can help reduce PM whether you are on the go, at the office or in your home. On the go: » If possible, use alternate transportation.

Try a hot bowl of soup for winter warmth

Mount’s nursing program earns long accreditation

It’s definitely a soup day. The snow has just about disappeared (and it was just the nicest snow for sledding and building snowmen) but the temperature continues to drop. It registered a fingerfreezing 12 Rita degrees Heikenfeld when I went out to RITA’S KITCHEN feed the chickens last week. After the glut of holiday eating, a steaming hot bowl of soup is just perfect for supper. Barley is in the news for its health-giving qualities and downright earthy flavor. Interestingly enough, barley was one of the grains people of a generation or two ago used frequently. Back then, it was long-cooking barley. Today we have quick-cooking barley, as well. When my kids were infants and lost their appetites when they were sick, my mom would make barley water. I know it sounds weird, but she cooked pearl barley in water, strained it, then added honey and lemon. It wasn’t the most appealing drink, looks-wise, but they liked it and it helped them get well. Mom said it was nourishing. I just took her word for it and it was years later that I found out barley’s a good source of vitamin E/ antioxidants, fiber and niacin, and it helps digestion. It’s a great grain for the heart. Mushrooms, too, are good for you. They’re low in calories, carbs, fat and sodium. Plus they’re high in water and fiber and an excellent source of potassium, which helps the body process sodium and lower blood pressure.

Mount’s nursing program receives highest level of accreditation from CCNE The College of Mount St. Joseph’s nursing program received a 10-year accreditation for its baccalaureate and master’s degree nursing programs from the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE), an independent accrediting agency that manages the accreditation of nursing colleges in the United States. It is the maximum number of years that CCNE awards. “This accreditation is significant because, after a rigorous investigation, CCNE determined our bachelor’s and master’s degree programs in nursing meet the highcaliber criteria used to designate nursing schools,” said Sue Johnson, dean of health sciences at the Mount. “Employers know a nursing degree from the Mount turns out top-notch nurses who become health care leaders in their specialties.” CCNE’s report showed the Mount meets all four accreditation standards. The Mount’s BSN program had a 95.45 percent pass rate on the NCLEX this year. The Masters Graduate Entry Level in Nursing (MAGELIN) program has a six-year NCLEX pass rate of 97.80 percent. The Mount’s health sciences

Beef barley mushroom soup

My husband Frank likes a drizzle of red wine vinegar to finish off the soup. My colleague Matt Swaim, producer at Sacred Heart Radio, feels like taking a nap after enjoying this soup. So now you’re forewarned! As I always tell you, adjust the seasonings to taste. 6 strips bacon, cut up 2 cups chopped onion 1 tablespoon garlic 1 pound mushrooms, sliced (I used cremini) 1 scant tablespoon tomato paste 1 quart beef broth plus about a cup of water, if necessary 1 cup quick-cooking barley 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Sauté bacon until crisp. Add onion and garlic. Cook until onion is starting to brown. Add mushrooms and cook until tender and pot is beginning to get dry. Stir in rest of ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until barley is tender, about 20 minutes. Add water if necessary. Season with salt and pepper.

soups and stews. Freeze leftover paste in a baggie, smoosh the air out and lay it flat. When you need some, you can push out the frozen paste.

1 ⁄2 cup orzo 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning 1 cup milk 11⁄2 tablespoons flour Salt and pepper to taste

Formerly secret chicken corn chowder

Heat oil in soup pot and add mushrooms and onions, and cook over medium high heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth, corn, chicken, soup, orzo and seasonings. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer and cook until orzo is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir together milk and flour in a small bowl; gradually stir into chowder and cook until hot throughout.

For the reader who had a similar soup at a luncheon. The hostess would only divulge ingredients. “The recipe is secret,” she said. If this is similar to what the reader ate, the secret’s out! Substitute dried basil, rosemary and thyme for Italian seasoning if you want. Olive oil 8 oz. sliced fresh mushrooms 11⁄4 cups chopped onion or more to taste 2 10.5 oz. cans chicken broth or more, if needed 1 pound corn, thawed if frozen or drained if canned 2-3 cups cooked chicken, chopped (deli chicken is good) 1 10.5 oz. can condensed cream of chicken soup

Onion facts: Small onion equals about 3⁄4 cup, a medium about 11⁄4 cups and a large about 2 cups.

The lab includes a high fidelity simulation lab using SimMan 3G technology, an IV simulation room, a 12bed station updated skills lab that mimics the hospital room of today. “Nursing is a growing career field and a BSN offers many opportunities for career growth,” Johnson said. “Nurses who receive a superior education and are career-ready by the time they graduate, are the gold standard for what employers like to find, and what patients expect for their care.” The Mount’s nursing program continues to grow as well. The Mount now offers more graduate degrees for nurses including a master of science in nursing with a nurse educator and administration track and a doctor of nursing practice with an administration and advanced practice track. In addition, the Mount’s successful RN-BSN program will begin to be offered in an online format in May 2013. The Mount is currently accepting applications for the MSN and DNP tracks for fall 2013.

West Siders help start the arts Several West Side residents attended a kick off the ArtsWave Residential Division volunteer effort to support the community campaign for the arts at an afternoon workshop and celebration at Kennedy Heights Arts Center. Volunteers are integral to the success of ArtsWave and the local arts community. ArtsWave offers a number of opportunities to people who want to volunteer for our arts – the theater, dance, music, museums and galleries that make our community a great place to live, work, play and stay. This month, volunteers from across the region started working on ArtsWave’s 2012 Community Campaign, gathering with ArtsWave leadership for a discussion of the organization’s mission, which celebrates the arts’ ability to connect people and create vibrant neighbor-

hoods. The volunteers met at Kennedy Heights Arts Center, a community arts center that enhances the life of the surrounding community through arts and cultural experiences that embrace diversity, foster creativity and build community. Kennedy Heights Arts Center Executive Director Ellen Muse-Lindeman led the group in an arts engagement activity followed by a brief workshop. Volunteers listened to words of encouragement from Residential Division Chairwoman Sheryl Beyersdorfer of Indian Hill and were introduced to the new ArtsWave Chief Operating Officer Alecia Kintner of Mariemont, before retrieving packets of letters which will be mailed to ArtsWave supporters throughout our region. This is Beyersdorfer’s

Oak Hills students volunteer at Wesley Several students in the Oak Hills work study program donate an hour of their time each week to work at Wesley Community Services in Price Hill, assembling Meals-OnWheels boxes that contain fruit, juices and desserts. In their hour-long time frame the students complete a total of 300 to 500 boxes. “Wesley Community Services provides authentic, meaningful opportunities for the students to acquire employability skills in teamwork, working in a production environment to complete a product. Wesley has been very accommodating and the students look forward to helping them,” said Deb Stroud, work study coordinator at Oak Hills.

Since beginning their volunteer partnership on Aug. 29 this year, they have logged 159.7 hours of volunteer time. “The students are so great. They are so productive that we had to cut them back to one day a week of help instead of two,” said Ja’Lah Willingham, volunteer coordinator. With the assistance of

the Oak Hills student volunteers Wesley Community Services is also able to provide special holiday items to seniors including wrapped holiday cookies and treats. “I like going to Wesley Community Services, assembling the boxes because it is fun and I like working with the people at Wesley and helping them out,” said Eric Ruffin, student volunteer. Student Andy Gerhardt said, “It’s fun!” Logan Hines, another student volunteer, said “I like to fold boxes and I do it by myself.” The organization’s mission is to foster and support seniors seeking to remain in their home for as long as possible. They provide Meals-OnWheels, specialized transportation and home care services. Wesley delivers Meals-On-Wheels in Hamilton and Butler counties in Ohio and the eight Northern Kentucky counties. This year Wesley will be deliveringmore than 300,000 meals. For more information on Wesley Community Services, visit http:// www.wesleycs.org/.

Couple moves charitable business to Bridgetown By Kurt Backscheider

kbackscheider@communitypress.com

Nancy Hollenkamp said she and her husband, Jerry, are delighted they’ve been able to move their business into a bigger space. The Green Township residents are the owners of Writely Sew, an embroidery and embellishment company they opened in July 2009. The couple started off 2013 by moving their business from a 2,000-squarefeet shop in Mount Healthy to a 5,050-squarefeet space in Bridgetown. Writely Sew’s new home is 3862 Race Road, between Bridgetown Middle School and Bridgetown Church of Christ, across from Ron’s Roost. “We’re really, really thrilled,” Mrs. Hollenkamp said. “The new space is wonderful.” She said they started the business to help fund the Aubrey Rose Foundation, a charity they founded in memory of their late daughter. Aubrey Rose Hollenkamp was born with a rare heart defect called Scimitar Syndrome, and spent much of her young life in hospitals as a heart and double lung transplant recipient. She died in 2000, just shy of her third birthday. Honoring their daughter’s memory, the Hollenkamp’s foundation awards educational schol-

look forward to being able to produce more work and assist more clients in their larger shop in Bridgetown. With the help of their son, Spencer, and a few other full-time employees, she said Writely Sew embroiders a variety of apparel for schools, sports teams, businesses

and nonprofit organizations. In-house graphic designers allow them to offer custom work to all of their clients, she said. The goal of the business from the beginning has been to help the foundation thrive, and Hollenkamp said she had a hunch early on that it would be a success. “I just knew it was going to grow,” she said. “Our bottom line is to help as many children and families as possible.” Writely Sew is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
