    Loveland, Ohio – I am so honored to be coming back to DVD Brew only this time as a guest bartender! Dana Vaughn Depenbrock and his crew are absolutely phenomenal, so I know it will be a blast serving customers, top-quality local beer!

    Wednesdays are one of DVD Brews’ slower days, so they bring in guest bartenders to encourage family, friends, and community members to come visit!

    I have a duty to bring in the crowd, which I intend to do because I love supporting Loveland’s local businesses in any way I can!

    Did I mention I do have bartending experience so the pours will be on point! DVD Brew also has cocktails for the non-beer drinkers and typically has an unbelievable food truck parked right outside! I hope to see all our faithful Loveland Magazine readers there on the 28th!

    Did I mention that DVD Brew also caters to non-alcohol drinkers!

    DVD has 29 hand-crafted beers on tap and 10 distilled spirits on the shelf. Also seltzers such as the Danielle-tzer, a gluten-free neutral hard seltzer available in 4 flavors: Passionfruit-Orange-Guava, Black Cherry, Prickly Pear, and Strawberry Lemonade.

    After visiting DVD Brew in June, I knew that Dana’s story behind the conception of DVD Brew had to be shared with the community! I sat down with Dana, Brewmaster, Keith Stark, and General Manager, Bobby King to talk all about the story behind creating 28 one-of-a-kind drafts and what sets DVD Brew apart from any other brewery in the area.

    Dana repurposed a former Loveland car wash into one of the coolest and eclectic businesses in the Tri-State.

    Please, everyone, come visit DVD Brew on August 28 anytime between 6 and 8 pm and make this the largest Wednesday crowd DVD Brew has ever seen!

  • Cassie the Food Guru Visits Teak Loveland Sushi and Thai Cuisine

    Cassie the Food Guru Visits Teak Loveland Sushi and Thai Cuisine

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – Chanaka De Laneroll brought his passion for fine food and exceptionally good service to Historic Downtown, and it gave rise to an inspiring addition to Loveland’s restaurant landscape.

    De Laneroll prides himself on providing nutritious and delicious options, fast and friendly service, and making sure that everyone in the community gets the most out of their dining dollar at Teak Loveland Sushi & Thai Cuisine. I was thrilled to learn just how little Teak relies on outside sources, besides raw ingredients, for what ends up on your plate or in your cocktail glass.

    In my latest Cassie the Food Guru episode, I talk to Chanaka about his extensive menu and his ability to retain staff at Loveland and his two companion restaurants, one in OTR and one in Oakley. During the interview I also asked Chanaka about patrons not familiar with Asian style cuisine and what they might want to sample on their first visit including what level of “spice” first-timers should dare try on their first visit. His answers make giving the Thai cuisine a try, easy.

    My favorite part about Teak is that they have both vegetarian and vegan options which is fantastic for those making these healthy dietary choices. Teak is my go-to Loveland restaurant choice because of their attention to this, and their extensive menu options.

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – Tucked right on the outskirts of Downtown, Loveland is an all-new brewery…and this is not just any brewery! DVD Brew located at 1555 Loveland Madeira Road, features 28 beers curated by owner, Dana Vaughn Depenbrock, and believe it or not Dana’s passion for brewing his own beer started with an at-home beer making kit.

    Dana came up with the concept for DVD Brew in 2022 and the brewery laid down its roots at what used to be Johnny’s Car Wash earlier this year.

    After visiting DVD Brew nearly a month ago, I knew that Dana’s story behind the conception of DVD Brew had to be shared with the community! I sat down with Dana, Brewmaster, Keith Stark, and General Manager, Bobby King to talk all about the story behind creating 28 one-of-a-kind drafts and what sets DVD Brew apart from any other brewery in the area. If you are a beer coinsurer or you are just simply looking for a great atmosphere, check out my latest interview with Dana, Keith, and Bobby from DVD Brew!

  • The Table of Discussions Celebrates Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month

    The Table of Discussions Celebrates Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month

    Connie Mehlman • Cassie Mattia • Courtney Hineman
    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – Did you know more than 6 million Americans have one or more developmental disabilities (DD)? That means about 15 percent of the United States population is living with DD. Over the few past decades, individuals with DD and DD advocates have been fighting for inclusion and equal opportunities within their communities and the workforce. Without help from leaders and social reformers like Dorothy Dix, Helen Keller, Eleanor Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr., Ronald Reagan, and George Bush, to name a few, both National Developmental Disabilities Month and the Americans with Disabilities Act wouldn’t exist.

    “It’s just basic human needs not special needs.” – Courtney Hineman

    In 1987, President Ronald Reagan made a public announcement asking Americans to provide individuals with DD “the encouragement and opportunities they need to lead productive lives and to achieve their full potential.” Reagan’s powerful message not only established the month of March as National DD Awareness Month, but his advocacy also led to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) being passed in 1990 by George Bush. The ADA officially made it illegal to discriminate against individuals with disabilities.

    Once the ADA passed, DD advocates across the world began to take a stand, using their own experiences and success stories to promote equal rights. Although progress has been made in the DD community there are still many obstacles’ individuals with DD face every day. This is why National DD Awareness Month is a time to celebrate the achievements of those with DD and take the time to educate yourself and those surrounding you on the importance of including individuals with DD in all aspects of community life!

    In light of this very special March celebration, I decided to again share an interview that I conducted in March of 2023 on my Loveland Magazine TV Table of Discussions with two of the most respected DD advocates in Ohio, Connie Mehlman now a Consultant with Best Buddies International and Courtney Hineman, the Community Outreach Advocate for Butler County Board of Developmental Disabilities! Connie and Courtney have paved the way for inclusion and equality within the DD community giving them both a plethora of knowledge when it comes to educating others about how they too can advocate for individuals with DD. Connie has since retired from her job with Butler County.

    I am pleased to rebroadcast my Table of Discussions episode featuring Connie Mehlman and Courtney Hineman! Happy DD Awareness Month!

    This year’s Greater Cincinnati Best Buddies Friendship Walk is on Saturday, April 13 at Marcum Park, 116 Dayton Street in Hamilton.

  • [Videos] Experience “Great Music, a Great Sweat, and a Great Workout” at Body Alive Loveland Lagree!

    [Videos] Experience “Great Music, a Great Sweat, and a Great Workout” at Body Alive Loveland Lagree!

    Cassie Mattia in the first class offered by Body Alive Loveland Lagree

    by Cassie Mattia,

    Loveland, Ohio – The latest exercise craze has taken Loveland by storm! On Friday, February 16, David Miller, our Managing Editor, and I, attended the grand opening of Body Alive Loveland Lagree. We witnessed the official ribbon cutting ceremony, and I interviewed owners, Adam Engel and Issac Spence, and trainer, Samantha Johns about the new Loveland workout facility!

    Adam and Issac, who are both 2010 Loveland High School graduates, grew up together in the same neighborhood in Loveland. Adam, now a retired MLB player, received a baseball scholarship to the University of Louisville and played Centerfield for the Chicago White Sox. Issac attended Hillsdale College and studied Marketing. After taking multiple Pilates classes and realizing how great of a workout it was Adam and Issac decided to join forces and open Body Alive Loveland Lagree!

    The inaugural class of Body Alive Loveland Lagree

    The Lagree Method, ”is a high-intensity, low-impact exercise method, that tightens, strengthens, and tones in as little as 30 minutes a session by incorporating bodybuilding principles, such as Time Under Tension, which removes breaks from workouts and grants users the ability to sweat, shake, and persevere through the total duration of every class.”

    The Lagree Method is founded on the five components of physical fitness:

    • Endurance
    • Cardiovascular Fitness
    • Body Composition
    • Flexibility
    • Strength

    Lagree movements incorporate the use of 600 muscles at once, making this method even more time-efficient for those on the go and those looking for quick but lasting results. The Lagree method stays true to the 3 S’s; Shake, Sweat, and Soreness.

    After reading about the Lagree method, I not only wanted to learn more from the experts, but I also wanted to see for myself what the workout was all about by participating in Body Alive Loveland Lagree’s first class of their grand opening. To give the community the full Body Alive experience I interviewed Adam, Issac, and Samantha about their journey to opening Body Alive, the Lagree method, and what sets this method of exercising apart of from others and captured my first Lagree workout all on camera!

    Watch our exclusive Loveland Magazine TV interview and exercise video to learn all about Body Alive Loveland Lagree!

    Body Alive Loveland Lagree is located at 10565 Loveland Madeira Road right beside Starbucks. In celebration of their grand opening, Body Alive Loveland Lagree is offering $7 Lagree 50 minute classes for a limited time. Classes can can be purchased using the Body Alive app or online at https://bodyalivefitness.com/loveland-lagree/.

  • No Heart was Left Behind at the 3rd Annual Hearts Afire Weekend!

    No Heart was Left Behind at the 3rd Annual Hearts Afire Weekend!

     

    Cassie Mattia

    by Cassie Mattia,

    Loveland, Ohio – The city of Loveland stole the hearts of many at the 3rd annual Hearts Afire Weekend! The celebration which took place on Friday, February 9 through Sunday, February 11 featured a number of heart-felt activities, vendors, food, drinks, live entertainment, Valentine’s Day decorations, and gorgeous ice sculptures.

    This year, over 30 businesses participated in spreading the love! On Friday, the Little Miami River Chamber Alliance kicked off Hearts Afire Weekend with their annual Valentine’s Day breakfast where the 2024 Valentine’s Lady, Becky Giver, was announced as well as the winners of the poetry and art contests. Later, Friday evening Lemons & Limes Boutique, Blume Home, Alley Boutique, Trailside Provisions, and Whistle Stop Clay Works hosted a Galentine’s Night. The Loveland Stage Company also presented Crushin’ It (Vol. 2), a Valentine themed variety show. The first night of the Hearts Afire celebration ended with Line Dancing Lessons at City Hall and Love Songs Singo at Hops & Berry Taproom.

    On Saturday, the Hearts Afire celebration featured over 30 different activities beginning with a Frozen meet and greet at Bike Trail Books and a puppy kissing booth at Eads Hardware Store and ending with Fireworks and a concert starring Rooster Ridge at Cappy’s Taproom. The day also included a Heart Art Scavenger Hunt, a unique Taylor Swift photo op and friendship bracelet activity, an ice sculpture walking tour, a Caricature Artist, carriage rides, pottery painting, a 360° Photo Booth, speed dating, food trucks, family karaoke, and the first ever dance Elvis costume contest.

    On Saturday, I got the opportunity to volunteer at one of the most popular activities at the Hearts Afire Weekend, The Valentine Pageant! The 2nd annual Hearts Afire Valentine Pageant took place at the Loveland Stage Company and showcased children ages 1-4 as they competed to be crowned Miss Valentine or Mr. Cupid. The contest was judged by Loveland Valentine Ladies, Jeanie Shumaker, Donna Barns, Debbie Murray, and John Espy. This year Dr. Kathy Lorenz (2019 Valentine Lady) and Kay Bolin (2018 Valentine Lady) emceed the pageant.

    During the pageant I directed guests where to sit and explained to them how to vote for their “Fan Favorite,” a category in which the audience could vote for their favorite child in the pageant. Those that voted included a dollar or more with their vote which went towards funding for a new HVAC system for the Loveland Stage Company.

    Assistant City Manager, Misty Clark, was in awe as the guests rolled in as every single seat was filled in the Loveland Stage Company’s auditorium! “This is the largest turn out I have ever seen,” Misty said, “We also have 24 contestants this year in the pageant!”

    I couldn’t help but get all the pageant action on camera after hearing how unbelievable the turnout was! Watch my Facebook Live and video from the 2nd Annual Hearts Afire Valentine’s Pageant!

    The 2024 Hearts Afire Valentine’s Pageant winners were as follows: (Ages 1-2) – Little Miss Valentine – Rory, Little Mr. Cupid – Beau, (Ages 3-4) – Miss Valentine – Dawson Joan, and (People’s Choice) – Dawson Joan

    The Hearts Afire Weekend ended on Sunday with a Chasing Cupid 5k at Fleet Feet, a Taylor Swift Brunch at Paxton’s Grill, and a Sweetheart Brunch at Tano Bistro.

    I had an absolute blast exploring the Hearts Afire weekend festivities and meeting so many visitors that traveled miles just to experience the Hearts Afire celebration! I am so proud to be a part of the Sweetheart of Ohio! If you missed the 3rd Annual Hearts Afire Weekend watch the Loveland Magazine TV video that captures the essence of the celebration including “Family Karaoke” and the Dance Elvis Costume Contest! The music featured on the video is by DJ JOE KOOL.
