  • Pizza, Beer, and History…The Works Pizza has it all!

    Pizza, Beer, and History…The Works Pizza has it all!

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – Downtown Historic Loveland is becoming quite the popular foodie destination as new restaurants are popping up left and right! Not all the phenomenal food culture is necessarily at the new Loveland restaurants, in fact, one restaurant, in particular, has been around since 2002 and has been serving up deliciously unique combinations ever since.

    The Works Pizza, located in the heart of Downtown Loveland at 20 Grear Millitzer Place, has been pairing up Pizza and Beer for over 20 years to families within the community and beyond with just a few missions in mind; serving One-of-a-kind-food at a One-of-a-kind-location creating a One-of-a-kind-experience!

    Owners of The Works Pizza, Scott and Jamie Gordon, both grew up in Loveland and of course, always held Loveland close to their hearts as they both attended school in Loveland as well. The Gordon’s first came across The Works Pizza building in high school while working on building their “Class Float,” but never imagined that they would eventually be opening a very successful restaurant within the same building!

    What is now The Works Pizza was built in 1905 and was used as a water filling station for steam locomotives. Years later the building was home to both the Fire Station and Public Works. Although there have been some renovations to The Works the building, it still holds quite a bit of history. The Works Pizza is home to the Chime Bells that you can hear ring beautifully throughout Loveland, and “The Crusader,” a 1921 Pullman Passenger Train Car that Scott Gordon managed to find in Gettysburg, PA. The Crusader has since been remodeled so that it could seat up to 36 people, as the car can be rented out for events and parties. Oh and each vintage piece of art on the wall of The Works has history and meaning behind it too, but of course you will have to let Scott give you the history lesson on each piece!

    The Works Pizza is not only historically appealing; the food is out of this world. From their unbelievable Cauliflower Crust to the Deep Fried Green Beans to the infamous Breakfast Pizza, you can’t go wrong selecting just about anything on The Works Pizza menu! What goes better with Pizza than Beer? The Works Pizza has a huge selection of beers on tap and from the bottle, most of the beers being from local suppliers.

    Hungry yet? LOVELAND MAGAZINE TV and me, Cassie the Food Guru, have got you covered as we had the opportunity to stop in The Works Pizza and chat with owner Scott Gordon about his journey and why The Works has guests coming back time and time again!

    Without further ado, we bring to you, our loyal Loveland Magazine readers, a one-on-one on-camera interview with Scott Gordon! Click below to view the interview now!

  • Looking for a Fun Summer Art Camp?

    Looking for a Fun Summer Art Camp?

    The Loveland “All About Art” Summer Art Camp, which is sponsored by the Loveland Elementary PTA, has been holding art camps every summer since 2005, serving Loveland area school children in Kindergarten through 8th grade. Several talented certified art educators with years of classroom teaching experience have helped run this camp over the last 15 years. Art projects and art adventures center on a new theme each year. Our theme this summer is “Spaced Out” and will be taught by art teachers, Jennifer Drydyk, Aly Mardin, and Kim Richardson.

    This year’s camp will be held during the weeks of June 14th and June 21st.

    Our art camp is a great way for young artists to extend their artistic learning into the summer months by enjoying visually enriching adventures and experiences as they explore the many intriguing aspects of art through sculpture, painting, drawing, mixed-media, printmaking, video, marbling, and so much more!  

    This year only-we are opening up art camp to 9th graders. These students were part of last year’s 8th grade class who missed out on their last year of eligibility when camp was canceled due to Covid.

    Although the camp is sponsored by the Loveland Elementary PTA, the camp is available for all children regardless of the child’s school district. However, Loveland City School children will have priority registration. Covid safety protocols will be followed during art camp. Students and instructors will be required to wear face masks, socially distance, and use proper hand washing.

    To learn more about this exciting art camp opportunity and download a registration form, go to www.lovelandschools.org and click on “Flyers” or go to www.lovelandelementarypta.org and click on “Classes & Camps”. If you have any questions, please email Jennifer Drydyk at jdrydyk@mac.com

  • Loveland Hardware Store Employee Shows off his Photography Skills!

    Loveland Hardware Store Employee Shows off his Photography Skills!

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – It’s no secret that there are a lot of creative minds in the Loveland area; the secret lies within the hidden talents that many of Loveland’s community members and local business employees hold deep down inside of them. One of these individuals is Larry Smith, a Loveland Hardware Store employee and beyond talented photographer!

    Although Smith is technically retired he decided that he just couldn’t sit around and do nothing with his retirement so he decided to take a position at The Loveland Hardware Store, located in the heart of Downtown Loveland on Broadway Street next to Mile42 Coffee, and rekindle his passion for photography!

    Smith shared his background with us as well as some fantastic photos he took of the Loveland area!

    “I’ve been doing photography for 30 years as a hobby and absolutely love it. Landscape and God’s nature are my favorite things to shoot but of course, I love taking pictures of my family and especially our grandkids doing their activities,” Smith said. “The sunset picture (the feature image in this article) was taken in the fall of 2020 behind the Monkey Bar & Grill. It was one of those ‘right places at the right time’ and I was blessed to capture it. The 22/3 Viaduct picture (photo pictured below) was taken in the winter of 2020. My grandparents lived in this area when I was growing up and I always admired that bridge. I try to capture it at least every season of the year.”

    We would like to thank Larry Smith for providing us with these beautiful photos and encourage anyone in the community who has hidden talents to share them with us by writing us a “Letter To The Editor.”

    If you absolutely love Smith’s photos like we do you can contact him to take photos for you at LarrySmithPhotography1@gmail.com.

  • Miami Township dog park re-opens

    Miami Township dog park re-opens

    Miami Township, Ohio – In a faceBook post today, the Township said, “Due to a successful grant application, Miami Township is able to bring some of your Clermont County Parks Levy tax money back to the Township.” The grant was used to pay for 75% of the cost to replace the worn and aging chain link fence around the dog park within Miami Meadows Park.

    The new fence is a three rail “Kentucky Board” fence with a heavy duty wire fence liner. The dog park was closed until it was completed.

    The fence replacement is complete and the park is open for fun.

    1546 State Route 131 • 45150
    Field Status Hotline: (513) 248.5513 

    Miami Meadows Park, the crown jewel in the Miami Township park system, is approximately 200 acres of idealic recreational and green space. Miami Meadows Park offers numerous soccer, football and baseball fields, basketball courts, walking trails, a playground area and two picnic shelters. There is a dog park and a beautiful lake that is used on a “catch and release” basis for fishing by residents. 

    A major portion of the park is declared a wetland and reserved for wildlife habitat. 

  • “Rolling Mondays” Part 2 was a Success too!

    “Rolling Mondays” Part 2 was a Success too!

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – Eating Out to Help Out has brought the community of Loveland together once again for Coach Darnell Parker, only this time The Works Pizza helped us all Roll on into Monday!

    On Monday, April 19th, The Works Pizza located at 20 Grear Millitzer Place in Historic Downtown Loveland, hosted the 2nd round of “Rolling Mondays,” a fundraiser dedicated to Loveland High School’s (LHS) Women’s Basketball Coach Darnell Parker as he battles his way through Colin and Liver Cancer. The Works Pizza’s Owner Scott Gordon not only donated 10 percent of The Work’s sales for the day to Coach Parker’s Cancer bill fund he also helped organize a “Bartender’s Competition,” in which those involved in organizing Rolling Mondays competed for the most tips, which ultimately were donated to Coach Parker as well!

    “Coach Parker’s smile lights up any room he is in,” Scott Gordon said, “He brings so much positive energy to the kids on his team. I am happy to do a small part in helping him know he is appreciated, and we are returning as much joy as he gives.”

    The Works Bartender’s Competition held from 6 PM-10 PM ended up being quite a hit as each competitor collected more than anyone could have hoped for! I competed first ending with $113, Jill Dressell, the parent of an LHS basketball player, competed next collecting $154, Brad Early, Assistant Varsity Coach for the LHS Women’s Basketball team, and a parent of a player, was the next competitor earning $212, and Jodi Stanton, the parent of a former LHS Women’s Basketball player, competed last adding $177 to the Coach Parker fund. The winner of the Bartender’s Competition was Brad Early earning a total of $212. Early won a $25 gift card to Tahona which was donated by former player Kate Garry’s dad, Brain Garry.

    “I was blown away by the support for Darnell from the Loveland Community,” Brad Early said, “I had so much fun guest bartending and winning the competition! Huge shout out to Ashley, the true bartender, and The Works for hosting this event.”

    The Split the Pot also continued on Monday night from 6 PM-8 PM. LHS’s Women’s Basketball players did their absolute best to collect funds from those that attended in honor of Coach Parker. It was announced by Jessica Early, one of Rolling Mondays organizers, that after the 2nd Rolling Monday the Split the Pot is now officially at $800!

    After hearing about all of the generous donations from the community as well as seeing all the support surrounding him at both Rolliing Mondays, Coach Darnell Parker voiced that he couldn’t say thank you enough to everyone involved!

    “The last two Mondays have been an absolute blast! Although I knew people came out to support me, it didn’t feel like a pity party and I appreciated that. These last two Mondays at Bishop’s Quarter and The Works have felt more like a family reunion than a benefit,” Parker said, “And that is what makes Loveland so special! We take care of and support our own, and I’m proud to be a part of this wonderful community!”

    Coach Parker’s finance, Samantha McElfresh, also expressed her gratitude for those supporting Darnell.

    “The Rolling Mondays have been better than I could have expected. The amount of love and support the Loveland community has shown is amazing,” McElfresh said, “It has made this journey a little easier knowing we have so much support. I never knew I could like Monday’s as much as I do after Rolling Mondays! I cannot wait to see the turnout  at the next one.” 

    The next and final Rolling Monday will be held at Narrow Path Brewing Company located on the Loveland Bike Trail at 106 Karl Brown Way in Historic Downtown Loveland on Monday, April 26th. 30 percent of the sales throughout the day at Narrow Path Brewing will go towards Coach Parker’s Cancer bills. From 6 PM-8 PM, LHS athletes will be once again running the Split the Pot so be sure to come out to get your entry in as the pot is now over $800!

    “I’m am very excited about getting together at Narrow Path,” Coach Parker said, “Narrow Path is another great Loveland establishment and it is going to be a great day on Monday. I would like to invite the entire community to come out and have a great time! I think it’s important that we continue to support our great treasures in Downtown Loveland, and Narrow Path is one of the best!”

    If you haven’t had the chance to come out to Downtown Loveland for Rolling Mondays to support Coach Parker now is your chance! Head on down to Narrow Path Brewing Company this Monday, April 26th, and join us as we rally around Coach Parker for the 3rd and final round of Rolling Mondays!

    Were you not able to make it to round 2 of Rolling Mondays at The Works Pizza in Historic Downtown Loveland, Ohio? No worries! We captured all the special moments from the night! Check out the photos below!

  • LHS Students Raise $94,908 for Leukemia and Lymphoma Society!

    LHS Students Raise $94,908 for Leukemia and Lymphoma Society!

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – Team CUREage 2.0 for the victory! Although Loveland High School (LHS) students, Carly Wilhoite, Bella Dillhoff, and Morgan Wheeler did not win the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) annual “Students Of The Year” campaign, which raises funds and awareness for blood cancer research, their group appropriately named “Team CUREage 2.0” still managed to raise $94,908!

    “One of the most important things I learned throughout this is to not be afraid of No and actually become used to it,” said Bella Dillhoff, “You have to get through a bunch of No’s just to get one Yes. We’d like to thank everyone who supported our campaign by going to various events and donating to our page. But most of all thank you to our moms who kept pushing us not to stop,” Dillhoff added.

    Within the Cincinnati area the “Students of the Year” campaign, which was comprised of 12 teams, managed to raise $624,841 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. In addition to the thousands of dollars, Team CUREage 2.0 was able to raise, LHS’s Ellie Carr was selected to be a part of the LLS 5k Club. Team CUREage 2.0 was also able to complete the LLS 50-state challenge by getting a minimum of $25 donated to the cause by each of the 50 states. Bella Dillhoff was also recognized by being selected to receive the LLS Community Involvement Award because she was able to get the ENTIRE community of Loveland involved in the Students of the Year campaign.

    Team CUREage 2.0 team member, Carly Wilhoite had a lot to say about how gracious everyone in the community was in regards to their donations to the cause.

    “Thank you to all of my teammates for all your hard work on getting donations, thank you to all of the local restaurants that graciously teamed up with us to plan Fund-the-Nights, and thank you to those who sponsored our t-shirt sales,” Willhoite said, “The biggest thank you goes to our moms for being so supportive and helping us through the whole process.”

    Morgan Wheeler, another Team CUREage 2.0 team member said that the Bourbon Raffle and “Brewery Nights” were the two events that enabled them to raise the most donations. Some of the other successful donation outlets were Split The Pot, the Gift Basket Raffles, T-Shirt Sales, and the Team CUREage 2.0 Dodgeball Tournament.

    Wheeler briefly reminisced on the night of the finale of the Students of the Year campaign and how truly nervous she was about the results.

    “The night of the finale, I was definitely nervous but almost like a calm nervous. At that point, I didn’t really care about winning the competition, I was simply just proud of us for raising an insane amount of money,” Wheeler said, “I am a naturally competitive person, and winning usually is the goal for me, but our campaign almost realigned my priorities. Winning didn’t matter, as long as we could save a life. Thank you to our community, this was not just an LLS Students of the Year campaign, it was an LLS Community of the Year campaign!”

    When asked about the finale of the Students of the Year campaign Carly Wilhoite shared that a special memory she will hold close to her heart from that night is “the dance party” everyone participated in!

    Congratulations to Team CUREage 2.0! We are so proud of all of you for everything you have done for the community and those fighting Leukemia and Lymphoma. Keep on being the amazing citizens you are. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for all of you. Check out another article on the unstoppable Team CUREage 2.0 below!

  • Community Rally’s Around LHS’s Coach Parker at Opening Night of “Rolling Mondays!”

    Community Rally’s Around LHS’s Coach Parker at Opening Night of “Rolling Mondays!”

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – It’s official! Loveland High School’s (LHS) Women’s Basketball Coach, Darnell Parker, has quite a loyal fanbase of Tigers! 

    On Monday, April 12th, Bishop’s Quarter, located in Downtown Historic Loveland, hosted “Rolling Mondays,” a fundraiser in support of Coach Darnell Parker as he battles Colin and Liver Cancer. The first Rolling Monday proved to be a success as fundraiser organizers, Jessica Early, Jodi Stanton, Loveland Magazine, and several LHS parents and local business owners, brought the community together to generate funds to help pay Coach Parker’s Cancer bills. 

    Beginning at 6 PM the community began to “Roll” into Bishop’s Quarter so that they could “Eat Out to Help Out” Coach Parker. The fun-filled night kicked off with the serving of the “Coach’s Cocktail,” which included Tito’s, muddled strawberries, lime, basil, and simple syrup. I for one can say that the cocktail was not only unbelievable but very popular with those that attended the fundraiser! 

    While Coach Parker’s fans enjoyed their cocktails they were able to enjoy spectacular live music provided by Brad Martin, and yes he did dedicate “Paparazzi” by Lady Gaga to yours truly! As if the fantastic live music and refreshing cocktails weren’t enough, LHS Women’s and Men’s Basketball players competed against one another to see who could get the most entries into the Split the Pot drawing (Women’s Team) or the Gift Basket Raffle (Men’s Team)! The winning team ended up being the LHS Women’s Basketball Team but that doesn’t go without saying that the Gift Baskets were beautifully done and included a lot of superb prizes. The Split the Pot rounded out to be a whopping $500 for the very first Rolling Monday!

    Towards the end of the fundraiser, it was easy to see that Coach Darnell Parker has touched a lot of people’s lives with his vibrant personality, competitive drive, unbelievable coaching skill set, and ability to help so many athletes succeed.

    Bishop’s Quarter was filled with many pillars of the community on Monday night and they wanted to share with YOU what their experience was like at the first Rolling Monday EVER! Here are a few of those individuals’ thoughts about their “Eat Out to Help Out” night at Bishop’s Quarter!

    “Bishop’s Quarter was honored to support Darnell and his fight against cancer. It was my first time meeting Darnell and it did not take long to understand why so many people care about him and support him in his fight vs. cancer,” Co-Owner of Bishop’s Quarter, Mark Wiehe said, “He is an amazing and inspiring guy and I left our first meeting feeling like we have known each other for years. I was extremely proud as a Loveland resident and business owner to see the support shown by the school, basketball program, and community. Thank you, Cassie and Loveland Magazine for your support of Coach Darnell!!”

    “The first of the three Rolling Monday events to support Coach Parker was incredible! Bishop Quarter management, Mark and Kevin, hosted a fantastic evening,” LHS parent and one of the Rolling Monday organizers, Jessica Early said, “Loveland Magazine’s sponsorship and support were fantastic. Our Loveland community showed up with love, energy and amazing generosity. It truly was a special night in Loveland and we look forward to the next Rolling Monday event, Monday, April 19th at The Works!  I’m sure it will be wonderful.” 

    “Because I respect coach Parker and his team so much I jumped at the chance for Loveland Magazine to be the media sponsor,” Loveland Magazine Editor in Chief David Miller said, “I was so impressed with what Jodi and Jessica did! I was especially impressed with their organizing skills! I truly appreciated the wonderful hospitality Bishop’s Quarter and staff showed to all, it was a memorable night.”

    Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to making the night such a big success! We appreciate YOU!

    Here at Loveland Magazine, we of course had to capture the magic of the very first Rolling Monday so please enjoy the video footage and photos captured by both David Miller and myself!

    The next Rolling Monday is set to kick off at The Works Pizza located at 20 Grear Millitzer in Downtown Loveland on April 19th with activities from 6 PM-10 PM. The Works Pizza will be holding a Bartender Competition from 6 PM-10 PM in which guest appearances will be made by several Loveland community leaders! I will be guest bartending from 6 PM-6:45 PM, Jill Dressell (parent of a LHS basketball player) will be taking the 7 PM-7:45 PM time slot, Brad Early (Assistant Varsity Coach for the LHS Women’s Basketball team and a LHS parent) will be competing from 8 PM-8:45 PM, and Jodi Stanton (Parent of a former LHS Women’s Basketball player and current LHS Men’s basketball player) will be running the bar from 9 PM-9:45 PM.

    The guest bartender with the most tips (tips will be donated to Coach Parker) will win the competition! Split the Pot tickets will also be sold from 6 PM-8 PM.

    We hope to see the Loveland community and beyond at next week’s Rolling Monday at The Works Pizza! Believe me you won’t want to miss out on all the fun and the opportunity to give back to Coach Darnell Parker!
