Last Saturday our team participated in an fund raising event with the Gospel Vision Ministries. The event took place on Saturday, August 22nd. The event was to help raise money for the annual Appalachian Christmas project. Crystal Haymes from Milford Ohio led the efforts and was joined by Amy Tye of Eastgate and The Littles from Batavia, Ohio. Many other volunteers came together to organize this event.

The event was held at Setters in Cherry Grove. This area is also referred to as Beechmont, Union Township, Anderson area or the "East Side" of Greater Cincinnati. The cornhole tournament started at 12pm and the Volleyball started at 5pm. We have attached pictures here so you could see what transpired.

About $3,000 was raised that day from entrance fees, sales of auction items and other donations. The money will go toward purchasing food, toiletries and toys for the kids and families of Jackson Kentucky. The website for the ministry is here.

The event was a HUGE success! Thank you to everyone who helped and participated. It is for such a great cause and really helped to lift my father-in-laws spirits knowing that his ministry would still be a blessing to these families even when he is unable to do the things he has done over the last many many years for them.

Have a great day!

On Saturday I had the privilege of going to an outreach event with my family in support of those less fortunate in Over the Rhine, Ohio, a part of downtown Cincinnati Ohio that has received its fair share of bad press over the years. The event started at 11am and offered the community a block party atmosphere and a chance to get some free food, toys for the kids, bags of groceries, clothing, treats and more.

We also had set up about 15 sets of corn hole boards, crochet, and places to sit and eat. Our volunteers cooked about 500 hamburgers and hot dogs, passed out chips and sweets, bottled water and cool aid. We had roving clowns and other helpers to assist where needed. My son Montana was helping other kids there by doing face painting. He is only seven! One of my other sons Maxwell was just having fun as a five year old can. My niece Melissa was also helping with the face painting. My sister Melanie helped with the children by keeping an eye on them and even helping feed a baby there while her mom took a break. My wife Jessica passed out helium balloons in front of the event and even prayed for some folks that came. I was dressed up as "skeeter" a juggling clown along with others. It was really nice to give back to the community and help my children learn that it is more blessed to give than receive.

Milford Ohio is an eastern suburb of Greater Cincinnati, Ohio and is in Clermont County Ohio. There are many ways to get there from downtown Cincinnati including a highway route from I-471 to I-275 or I-71 North to I-275 South. You can also take the old state route 50 that goes right through downtown and connects all the way to Milford and beyond. This road is similar to that of RT 66 as it connects Washington DC and the Capital buildings all the way to California. There is some interesting history here on Rt 50. It is really neat that I live right off of this road about 1 mile.

The town of Milford is a historic one and contains many older shops and storefronts. The following contact information was taken from the Milford Website:

The City of Milford
745 Center Street, Suite 200 Milford, OH 45150

Tel: 513-831-4192 • Fax: 513-248-5096

There is a really neat photo slide show on their site that takes you through the old town and the bike trail. I would recommend a view at that here:

There is also a really neat video tour and informational documentary here!

The scenic Little Miami River runs right through the town and a great bridge passes over that you can walk, drive or bike over. This connects to the Little Miami River Bike trail that runs all the way up the state of Ohio. We often enjoy riding bikes from here to Loveland.

One of the neat things about the community is the different areas that are all considered Milford. You have the historic town, shops and restaurants but then you can go 2 miles and get to all the new modern shopping, theaters, chain dining and recreational sports. This area has homes from about $75,000 all the way up to $1,500,000. We have been fortunate to live, work and sell homes here since about 1976!

If you have any specific questions about this area feel free to contact me at 513-732-2720.

Have a great day!

I have been seeing these vans and busses drive around more often lately in the area and thought I would do some research on the subject. CTC is a very interesting organization and fills a niche that we really needed filled in the East Side of Greater Cincinnati. We already have several bus routes that connect the fringe parts of Greater Cincinnati to downtown but no services that really serve the people going within the community itself. Clermont County is the adjoining county next to Hamilton County and shares the 275 interstate highway with other counties surrounding hamilton County. This loop highway is how most people in the Greater Cincinnati Area get anywhere. Now there is a service for people to use within Clermont County.

Taken from the CTC website:

What is CTC?

CTC is the primary provider of public transportation in Clermont County. Founded in 1977 as CART (Clermont Area Rural Transit), CTC has continued to evolve and now offers 4 fixed routes in addition to its Dial-A-Ride services. CTC also provides all the funding for Metro Routes 82X, 28, & 28X.

Many people can now utilize this service including routes to and from:

Goshen

Milford

Miami Township

Eastgate

Batavia Township

Amelia

New Richmond

Pierce Township

Tate Township

Bethel

Felicity

So the nice part is that people can travel within the county or connect to routes that travel throughout the rest of the Greater Cincinnati Area.

You can visit their website here.

If you have any direct needs or questions, please don't hesitate to call me directly at 513-478-3794. I can also refer you to a lender to get a great interest rate on your home.

Have a great day!
