  • State budget proposal offers $22.5 million to Western & Southern Open

    State budget proposal offers $22.5 million to Western & Southern Open

    Mason, Ohio – State Representative Adam Mathews (R-Lebanon) announced this week the inclusion of new funding for the Western and Southern Open tennis tournament in the latest version of the state operating budget.

    Mathews introduced this amendment to the budget, which includes $22.5 million for a one-time investment in the continuation of the tournament. “Since the tournament was acquired by new owners who seek its expansion, Mathews has championed the effort to support its continued growth in the City of Mason,” according to a press release issued by the Representative.

    “The Western and Southern Open is among the most coveted tennis tournaments in the world, and its presence here in Mason is a testament to the strength and vitality of our community,” Mathews said. “By including these new funds in the budget, we aim to support new growth of the tournament and ensure it remains here in Mason for years to come. I am grateful for the community partners that have joined in working so hard to ensure this event remains in Ohio.”

    The current version of the state operating budget was approved this week in the House and now heads to the Senate for further consideration. The tournament brings in over 180,000 visitors from all 50 states and $80 million to the local area every year.

    In 2022, Benjamin W. Navarro (born 1962/1963) bought the Western & Southern Open, a joint men’s and women’s tennis tournament on the ATP and WTA tour.

    Navarro (born 1962/1963) is an American billionaire businessman, the founder and chief executive officer (CEO) of Sherman Financial Group, LLC, which owns Credit One Bank. (Source: Wikipedia)

  • New in 2023 at Kings Island

    New in 2023 at Kings Island

    Mason, Ohio – New at the Kings Island amusement park in 2023 will be Adventure Port, “where the myths of an ancient civilization and its mighty city carved out of stone have lured travelers from around the globe to a bustling port community.”

    Adventure Port is located between Coney Mall and Action Zone, the park’s newest themed area will feature two new family rides, enhanced theming for Adventure Express, Enrique’s quick service restaurant, and the Mercado.

    Calling all explorers!

    Warnings of unchartered lands and surprise encounters beckon adventure seekers to board the Adventure Express for a journey that travels 3,000 feet of track twisted between trees and nestled into a hillside in the Oktoberfest area of the park.

    As the adventure begins, passengers depart from the station for what seems to be a leisurely ride, but after a quick plunge into the dense foliage of a damp rainforest, it becomes obvious this is no average coaster ride.

    As the train leaves the rainforest, a quick turn sends passengers into an old, boarded-up mine shaft. The train exits the tunnel only to enter another, narrowly escaping before being hoisted up the ride’s first lift hill where the train tiptoes its way over the track’s decrepit rickety structure then dives 60 feet below where passengers find themselves spinning through a helix of ruins.

    Riders next experience another tunnel, beginning a 40-foot climb up the second lift. The walls of this enclosed lift are lined with drummers and a giant figure holding a cauldron of molten lava is directly ahead.

    As the train avoids the lava, it’s hurled into a dark cave that leads riders back to civilization.

    Sol Spin

    This recently discovered mechanism appears to be an immense sun disk created by an ancient civilization. Climb aboard these open air, suspended passenger vehicles to experience the thrill of flying 60 feet through the air at 25 m.p.h.

    Sol Spin

    Cargo Loco

    Need a company to ship your goods? Look no further than the Arrow Cargo Company. Their methods might be a little dizzying, but they’ll get your freight from Point A to Point B…eventually. Check out the shipping barrels for yourself and get ready for the trip of your life!

    Cargo Loco

    The Mercado

    Cultures come together at the Mercado, a melting pot where guests simply celebrate being alive. Whether you’re an explorer just passing through, or a tourist checking out the local scene, the local purveyor is your source for dining, drinking, cargo transport and more.

    The Mercado

    Enrique’s

    A trip to Adventure Port isn’t complete unless you experience the local cuisine. Stop by Enrique’s quick serve restaurant for a menu that features traditional burritos, burrito bowls, tacos, salads and sides.

    Enrique’s

    Adventure Port Debuts in 2023

    Resting in the foothills of overgrown mountains and dense tropical terrain, Adventure Port is a hub for explorers searching for the ruins of an ancient civilization, its forbidden temple and mysterious wonders. If asked, the locals will tell tales of those who came before you and vanished. Did they unwittingly disturb ancient spirits and fall victim to an age-old curse?

    TEENAGERS FERNANDEZ, ALCARAZ LEAD QUALIFIER AT WESTERN & SOUTHERN OPEN

    Mason, Ohio – Eighteen-year-olds Leylah Fernandez and Carlos Alcaraz have advanced into the Western & Southern Open main draw, both winning a pair of straight set matches this weekend to qualify. 

    Fernandez dropped just two games in defeating Romania’s Elena-Gabriela Ruse to reach her second W&S Open main draw while Alcaraz collected the win against Belarus’ Ilya Ivashka to clinch a spot in his first Cincinnati main draw. Canada’s Fernandez squares off against American Allison Riske in the main draw’s first round, with Spain’s Alcaraz setting up an opening matchup with Italy’s Lorenzo Sonego.
     

    Su-Wei Hsieh, less than a month removed from winning the Wimbledon doubles title, did not lose a game in the first set and cruised her way to the women’s main draw with a victory over Cleveland native Lauren Davis. Italy’s Jasmine Paolini defeated 2019 US Open quarterfinalist Donna Vekic to punch her ticket to the main draw.

    A pair of qualifiers advanced with 6-0 third sets on Sunday. Shuai Zhang, a Wimbledon quarterfinalist in 2019, defeated Marie Bouzkova while Caroline Garcia earned her seventh straight Cincinnati appearance with her win over Fiona Ferro. 


    Tommy Paul was victorious in an all-American duel against Tennys Sandgren in a two-hour, thirty-three minute, three set battle, while fellow American Marcos Giron climbed his way into the main draw with his victory over Germany’s Dominik Koepfer. Two-time Major finalist Kevin Anderson saw his way into the field with 7-6(3) 6-4 win over American Steve Johnson. 


    France’s Richard Gasquet will make his 15th Western & Southern Open appearance, which is now tied for third-most Western & Southern Open appearances in the Open Era, following a three-set win over Spain’s Jaume Munar. Gasquet advances to face two-time champion Andy Murray on Monday night, a rematch of a 2019 first round match in Cincinnati.

    [Alex Eicher photos] Opening Day Enjoys Local Flavor, Upset Wins

    Mason, Ohio – The Western & Southern Open returned to Mason for the first time since 2019 Saturday, where several players put themselves one step closer to the main draw. 

    Wins that highlighted the day from the WTA Tour included France’s Fionna Ferro’s victory over 2021 Wimbledon quarterfinalist and No. 1 seed in the qualifying tournament Viktorija Golubic. Ferro will battled fellow countrywoman Caroline Garcia for a spot in the women’s main draw Sunday on Stadium 3 at 10 a.m. 

    Mason native and 2021 NCAA National Champion from the University of Texas Peyton Stearns gave her local fans a show against 2021 Wimbledon Doubles champion Su-Wei Hsieh. Hseih, however, clawed her way to the win and advanced in the qualifying tournament. 

    After attending Western & Southern Open matches growing up in Mason, Stearns fulfilled a dream with the opportunity to compete in front of her hometown fans Saturday. 

    “It was awesome. There were definitely a lot of emotions out there as you could tell at the beginning (of the match) and at the end and during the match,” Stearns said. “Some nerves kicked in, but being out there was so much fun.” 

    Four Americans defended their country’s home turf in Saturday’s qualifying round, where Tommy Paul, Steve Johnson, Tennys Sandgren and Marcos Giron all inched closer to main draw spots. Paul defeated South Korea’s Soonwoo Kwon and Sandgren knocked off France’s Jeremy Chardy, where the two Americans will duel for a spot in the main draw Sunday. Johnson collected the three-set win over Finland’s Emil Ruusuvuori while Giron was victorious over Cincinnati native and former Ohio State Buckeye JJ Wolf. 

    Wolf, a four-time winner on the ATP Challenger tour, competed in the Western & Southern Open qualifying draw for the fourth straight year. 

    “Coming home is the best feeling for me, having so much family and also friends in the standards,” Wolf said. “I can’t even explain the feeling even on a day like today where I didn’t feel my best. I was still having so much fun out there.”

    The main draw action begins Sunday for the ATP with a full slate of main draw play on tap from Monday, Aug. 16. The schedule for the week is available here.

    All tickets, including full series, mini-plans, single session and hospitality packages, are now on sale and information about available tickets can be found here. 

    The Western & Southern Open, an ATP Masters 1000 and a WTA 1000, is part of the US Open Series and is held at the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason, Ohio.

  • [Final-4 Bound] Tiger Women are Regional Lacrosse Champions

    [Final-4 Bound] Tiger Women are Regional Lacrosse Champions

    by Grace Nunn

    Loveland, Ohio – Thursday, May 27th the Loveland Tigers fought hard for the regional title against Mason High School, a very even match-up. The game could’ve gone either way, but the women fought hard and won 11-10.

    The game started and finished very back and forth. Just a few minutes into the game it was 2-1 Loveland. Then they were tied at 3. Every second of the game counted with Loveland and Mason constantly scoring a goal to tie or one-up the other team.

    Watch this highlight video of the Loveland women’s lacrosse team in its game vs Mason 

    This proved true all the way to the final 5 minutes of the game with Carly Wilhoite (senior) scoring Loveland’s 10th goal and Mason scoring their 10th goal shortly after.

    Josey Storm (senior) shot the team’s winning goal after the team ran the clock down to 2 minutes. These final minutes afterward were extremely frantic with Mason pushing for a goal to tie the game and Loveland trying to run the ball until the time would run out.

    With just 12 seconds left, Mason’s goalie launched the ball to her teammates when Elly Steinbrunner (sophomore) jumped in from defense and intercepted the ball. Unfortunately, a time-out was called by Mason’s coach before Elly got the ball, so Mason still had the ball in their possession.

    At this point, there were 7 seconds left in the game, but the time was reset back to the 12 seconds before the goalie threw the ball. Loveland and Mason huddled up to devise their strategies for the final seconds of the game. Mason still had a chance to tie the game up.

    Mason ran straight to the goal, but unfortunately for them, shot the ball way too far. After being passed the ball, Maggie Nance (senior goalie) held it for the final 3 seconds. Thus, the Loveland Women’s Lacrosse Team beat Mason 11-10, winning regionals and moving on to the semi-finals.

    The Tigers will be playing the Dublin Coffman Shamrocks at Mason High School on Wednesday, June 2nd. Dublin beat Upper Arlington 11-9, a major upset for the 10-time state champions.

    Dublin Senior Ashleigh Rothe is on the MaxPreps State leaderboard in Goals in 8th position. She is followed by team mates, Seniors Avery Schwab in 9th and Amanda Bailey, 13th). Avery Swab is #4 in assists. Sophia Schwab is #19 on the leaderboard in assists.

    MaxPreps rates the Loveland Tigers the #7 team in Ohio and the Dublin Coffman Shamrocks #9.

  • Loveland City School District included in COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution Week 2

    Loveland City School District included in COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution Week 2

    * Story up-dated at 6:10 PM on 1-30-2021

    by David Miller

    David Miller

    Loveland, Ohio – Ohio K-12 schools, including public, private, and career-tech entities, yesterday learned when their teachers and staff necessary for in-person learning are able to begin receiving vaccines.

    Loveland City School District is included in COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution Week 2 of first doses, starting February 8 as well as Indian Hill, Moeller, St. Xavier, Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, Forest Hills (Anderson), Great Oaks Career Campuses, and Sycamore.

    Included in Distribution Week 3 are, Kings, Lebanon, Little Miami, Mason, and St Margaret Of York.

    Included in Distribution Week 4 are, Children’s Meeting House, Goshen, Milford, Ohio Valley Voices, and St. Columban.

    Cincinnati Public Schools were able to jump the line and began their vacinations yesterday.

    Loveland’s schools remain in hybird-learning at all buildings, a combination of some students and staff attending in-person five-days per week and some students and staff teaching or learning in Loveland’s Remote Academy five-days a week.*

    Ohio Governor Mike DeWine has said that he is making it clear his “goal of Ohio returning to in-person learning either full-time or in a hybrid model by March 1st.” In order to do this, the governor identified teachers and school personnel necessary for in-person learning as Phase 1B recipients as part of the Ohio COVID-19 Vaccination program.

    “Vaccine is incredibly scarce, and we simply don’t have enough to vaccinate everyone at the same time. Therefore, this will be a rolling process, just like it has been during other vaccination phases, with a goal of administering all first doses by March 1st,” said Governor DeWine. “This rollout schedule is a heavy logistical lift that aims to ensure the maximum number of people can be vaccinated in the shortest amount of time.”

    In a news release, Dewine said, “The plan also makes the process as simple as possible for staff to be vaccinated and is organized to allow most K-12 staff in a county to be vaccinated within seven days of their assigned vaccination start date. For the limited number of counties where vaccinations will take place over multiple weeks, local leaders will make the logistical and scheduling decisions.”

    Eligible school employees will learn more about the locations and times of the vaccination sites from their administrators. The following documents list the entities by county in the week when teachers and personnel are able to begin vaccinations.

    Week One (Beginning February 1st)

    Week Two (Beginning February 8th)

    Week Three (Beginning February 15th)

    Week Four (Beginning February 22nd)

    Here is the Loveland District’s latest Covid 19 Dashboard also released on Friday:

    Below are the recent daily reports issued by the District:

    The district has been notified of the following positive case of COVID-19:

    • On 1/28/21, a student at Loveland Elementary School, last at school on 1/25/21.
    • On 1/26/21, a student at Loveland Intermediate School, last at school on 1/22/21.
    • On 1/23/21, a teaching staff member at Loveland High School, last at school on 1/20/21;
    • On 1/24/21, a student at Loveland High School, last at school on 1/20/21; 
    • On 1/25/21, a non-teaching, non-school-based staff member, last at work on 1/21/21;
    • On 1/25/21, a student at Loveland High School, last at school on 1/20/21; and
    • On 1/25/21, a student at Loveland High School, last at school on 1/22/21.
    • On 1/22/21, a student at Loveland High School, last at school on 1/20/21.
  • New Hospital Campus to be built 18 minutes from downtown Loveland

    New Hospital Campus to be built 18 minutes from downtown Loveland

    by David Miller

    Loveland, Ohio – Loveland residents will have another choice for medical care when a new, $156 million 60-bed hospital and medical office complex is built near Kings Island and Kings High School.

    The hospital will be built at the former College Football Hall of Fame site eighteen minutes from downtown Loveland.

    Mercy Health – Cincinnati announced the health system will build the new, hospital on the 30-acre site along the I-71 “Innovation Corridor” in Mason at Kings Mills, exit 25 on I-71. They will break ground in the third quarter of 2021 and anticipates bringing 220 new jobs to Mason in 2024 with eventual growth to 275. Construction is expected to be complete in the third quarter of 2023 with Mercy Health beginning patient care shortly thereafter.

    “Our leadership team identified an opportunity for serving unmet inpatient needs in Warren County, while developing a strong partnership with the City of Mason,” said Mercy Health – Cincinnati President Dave Fikse. “This investment aligns with our mission to promote accessible, community health and well-being.” 

    The new hospital, will be the first new hospital construction in Cincinnati since Mercy Health built West Hospital in 2014. In announcing their plans Mercy Health said that they will focus on providing emergency care and general and orthopedic surgery and offers opportunity for future campus expansion. It will include:

    • Emergency department 
    • One level II cath lab
    • 60 beds
    • Four operating rooms
    • Two procedure suites

    The facility will also be home to a medical office building located adjacent to the hospital and offering specialist care, including cardiology, pulmonology, general surgery, gynecology, gastroenterology, and vascular services.

    City of Mason Mayor Kathy Grossmann

    “We’re very excited to welcome one of the largest health systems in the country and in the region, Mercy Health, to the City of Mason. It’s a great complement to our I-71 Innovation corridor. City Council’s priority is to foster a culture of wellness for our residents and this development aligns with that commitment,” said City of Mason Mayor Kathy Grossmann.

    Mason City Council approved on Monday an “economic participation agreement” and incentive package that included a $600,000 forgivable loan and waiver of expedited permit fees, as well as a “mutual commitment” to explore a collaboration around bio innovation.

    “Our strategies have much in common. We are energized by the large emphasis that Bon Secours Mercy Health places on research, innovation, and engagement with early-stage companies. Mason economic development has an ongoing track record of facilitating and adopting innovation through this model to grow the Mason BioHub. We are looking forward to having Mercy here as a partner,” said Michele Blair, director of economic development for the City of Mason.

    The project architect is GBBN and Danis is the construction firm. 

    This new Mason facility will serve the northeast region of Cincinnati. 

    It’s the latest Mercy Health development in the area, following the July 2019 opening of Mercy Health – Deerfield Medical Center, an outpatient facility with diagnostics and physician offices. Deerfield Medical Center houses primary care practices and offers cardiology, women’s health services, and general surgery practices, in addition to diagnostic services on site, including lab draws, X-ray, MRI, mammography, ultrasound, and cardio/pulmonary testing. 

    Mercy Health – Cincinnati said they will announce two new primary care practices in Mason and Maineville later this month.
