Welcome<br />
Richard<br />
Dickmann ’80<br />
The Alumni Association has officially<br />
set its roots in the daily offerings on<br />
the campus of <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong>.<br />
The Alumni Center is bustling and I<br />
am pleased to announce that Richard<br />
has been hired as the Director<br />
of Alumni Relations. This new<br />
position shows the commitment that<br />
<strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> has in the newly<br />
formed Alumni Association. This<br />
investment will allow our association<br />
to grow and provide the needed<br />
resources to reconnect alumni with<br />
their alma mater.<br />
Bob Rowe - Principal<br />
Dear alumni,<br />
as the Director of alumni relations, my job is to reach out to alumni and provide the<br />
tools for communication, as well as direct events and activities to invite alumni back to<br />
the campus. The task at hand will have its challenges and will not happen overnight. In<br />
the short time that I have been involved in the development of the alumni association, I<br />
have learned a lot. The most important lesson is that it is very easy to get excited about<br />
<strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> when you have a son here or you volunteer your time as a coach or are<br />
a member of one of the many school committees. The hard part is getting alumni who do<br />
not have an active role in the school to take the time to come back.<br />
We all have very busy lives these days. Finding time to reconnect to your high school is not high on most priority<br />
lists. I would like to challenge each of you to make the commitment to find time to visit the campus one time<br />
this next year. <strong>High</strong> school sports have always been a source of pride in the northern Kentucky community. What<br />
better way to reconnect with CovCath than to go to a game? There is a buzz about basketball and Coach Krumps is<br />
headed into this spring with 90% of last year’s team. If you cannot make it to a game, we have alumni socials on the<br />
second Wednesday of the month at the alumni center and there are many alumni activities in the planning stages.<br />
alma mater is latin for “nourishing mother.” sometimes when your life is a constant progression forward, it is hard<br />
to look back at the tracks that you have laid. often, in conversations that I have with alums, they share with me about<br />
how they have become more successful or better people because of their four years at <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong>. as any<br />
nourishing mother would, <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> has given all of us the tools to become leaders in our community and<br />
in our faith. It is for this reason that I ask you to come back and reconnect with <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> and the Colonel<br />
brotherhood. At CovCath, you are always welcome.<br />
Go Colonels!<br />

Thank You Alumni<br />
by Richard Dickmann<br />
This summer, many alumni rallied to clean<br />
up and remodel the Alumni Center, which<br />
is in the basement level of the Griffin Centre.<br />
The project would not be a success<br />
if not for those alumni and especially the<br />
efforts of the following five Colonels.<br />
A special thank you goes out to:<br />
• Bill Frisch’79, works in the plumbing<br />
division of Century Construction and is<br />
father to Ben ’10 and John ’13.<br />
• Ken Hardcorn ’86, owner and operator<br />
of J & A Interiors, and has two sons attending<br />
CCH Jason ’12 and Alec ’14.<br />
• Barry Brake ’84, father to future Colonels,<br />
Kyle ’17 and Logan ’19, who owns<br />
and operates JF Brake Interiors.<br />
• Nate Thamann ’99, project manager<br />
with Reece-Campbell who would often<br />
bring a group of Thamann alumni.<br />
• Joe Fischer ’78, owner of Jafco Electric<br />
and father to future Colonel Jake ’16.<br />
While there were many contributors,<br />
some in huge ways, these five not only<br />
provided their companies’ services, but<br />
were often found in the trenches night<br />
after night with me until the project was<br />
finished.<br />
Please stop by the Alumni Center to see<br />
the work that has been done to your<br />
Alumni Center. The Center is open after<br />
all home football and basketball games<br />
and for many scheduled socials and<br />
events throughout the year.<br />
On the following page is a full list of<br />
Colonels who helped make this happen.<br />
I would like to apologize if anyone has<br />
been left off of this list. Some evenings<br />
I would go home and crash in lieu of<br />
writing down the names of those who<br />
had shown up that evening.<br />
A Message From The Director of Alumni Relations<br />
Richard Dickmann
ecently I watched the video:<br />
“Celebrate What’s right with<br />
the World” by DeWitt Jones.<br />
Throughout the presentation<br />
DeWitt discusses how our<br />
vision controls our perception<br />
and how that perception then<br />
becomes our reality in many facets of our lives. I could<br />
not help but think of how this relates to the vision we<br />
share as an administration, faculty, staff and student<br />
body. Dewitt also focused on the idea of celebrating<br />
the best in people and having a vision of the best<br />
possible future. For this reason I have chosen the theme<br />
“Celebrate” for the principal’s message in this issue of<br />
the alumni journal.<br />
Where do we look for something to celebrate? We have<br />
a multitude of examples right here at CovCath. I have<br />
to look no further than our students to see the good in<br />
them, the good they produce, and the good that is still<br />
yet to be achieved. We celebrate their successes, which<br />
instill them with optimism, confidence and fulfillment.<br />
to them, <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> <strong>High</strong> school is a 24/7<br />
experience. Whether it is the Chamber Choir helping<br />
to create a scholarship in maria schaffstein’s name,<br />
attaining a three-year average of 24.7 on the aCt,<br />

achieving success on the athletic fields, or participating<br />
in one of our 42 different clubs or organizations,<br />
our young men will tell you that they feel as if CCH<br />
challenges them to work hard, be involved, and become<br />
proud members of our brotherhood of Colonels.<br />
We celebrate our faculty and staff who have sacrificed<br />
to give us many years of experience and educational<br />
leadership, believing in the good that is done here and<br />
the things we accomplish together. The passion, values,<br />
dedication, and knowledge, which the entire faculty<br />
instills on a daily basis, are manifested several times<br />
over as our graduates enter their chosen professions.<br />
each day the faculty’s presence speaks to the dedication<br />
and legacy that has been built here.<br />
Finally we celebrate our alumni. Your efforts and<br />
contributions exemplify the values and qualities that<br />
were instilled in you while you were receiving your<br />
education. These factors in themselves are reason<br />
enough to celebrate what is right with CCH.<br />
god’s blessings,<br />

“Colonels in the Community” is a new addition to the journal. This section will be<br />
dedicated to the countless volunteer hours that alumni donate to the community. This<br />
is also where you can send in an article about a fellow alum who you feel should be<br />
recognized for his contributions in the community.<br />
<strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> Journal 5<br />
over the years the student body at <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> has put in hundreds of thousands<br />
of community service hours. each year the student body exceeds their total annual goal<br />
due to individuals who give of themselves unselfishly. Those who reach or exceed the<br />
standard of giving receive a varsity letter for service. at <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong>, community service is a part of everyday life.<br />
“Colonels in the Community” are “on a mission from god.”<br />
If you would like to participate in the community service program at <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong>, please contact mr. Bill snyder,<br />
Class of 1965 at bsnyder@covcath.org. If you know of an alum who is doing great things, please email richard Dickmann at<br />
rdickmann@covcath.org.<br />
Alum Shows <strong>School</strong> Pride<br />
earlier this year <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> acquired a<br />
school bus through the generosity of the athletic<br />
Boosters association. The school needed the<br />
bus to transport students to athletic events and<br />
extracurricular activities. The bus, however, needed<br />
upgrades.<br />
athletic Director mike guidugli immediately<br />
thought of mark Knipper, who had helped<br />
previously with some work on the other busses, in<br />
addition to assisting with several other projects to<br />
enhance the campus.<br />
mark, a 1980 alum, said that he was happy to be<br />
part of the project and he encouraged others to<br />
participate. “I know a lot of people and am willing<br />
to ask them for help.” mark actually called in<br />
many favors, allowing the bus to be completely<br />
refurbished at no additional cost to CCH. His<br />
friends installed leD lights and supplied the bus<br />
with a top quality stereo system and surround<br />
sound.<br />
mark borrowed the body shop of another friend,<br />
and putting to work his amateur skills at body work,<br />
he completely overhauled the exterior of the bus.<br />
mark was quick to add, “This was a project that my whole family got involved in. We are Colonels through and through.”<br />
mark’s sons, nikolaus ’13 and Benjamin ’06, were his primary co-workers. sons mark III and luke, future Colonels classes<br />
of ’18 and ’22, were also enthusiastic participants in the project.

50th reunion<br />
The Class of 1961 gathered recently,<br />
incredulous that it had really been<br />
fifty years since they graduated<br />
from CCH. on september 16,<br />
<strong>2011</strong>, 75 of the 122 class members<br />
made it back to see old friends and<br />
note significant changes to campus.<br />
on Friday evening, a mass was<br />
held for the deceased members of<br />
the class, followed by a reception<br />
in the school cafeteria. Father<br />
Heitzman, a beloved priest who was<br />
on staff at CCH in 1961, presided.<br />
on saturday the golden Colonels<br />
attended the school football game<br />
and then headed over to the taste<br />
of Cincinnati riverboat Dinner<br />
Cruise.<br />
The Class of 1961 gathers annually<br />
for a cookout and is noted for its<br />
particular sense of brotherhood and<br />
tradition. Class member Dick maile<br />
explained, “I know I’m biased but<br />

there is just something unique about<br />
the all-male educational experience.<br />
It creates a spirit that you can’t match<br />
elsewhere. I also think we have a<br />
really special class. We get together<br />
to remember our deceased members,<br />
especially tim shields, and we’ve<br />
set up three scholarships that give<br />
significantly to the school.”<br />
In thinking back on why the class<br />
has maintained strong friendships,<br />
mr. maile reflected, “We grew up in<br />
a different time. our parents lived<br />
through the great Depression and we<br />
knew what it was like to work hard<br />
and discipline ourselves. I worked in<br />
the summer to pay my tuition ($120),<br />
which was significant at the time. We<br />
also went on to become the vietnam<br />
generation. shortly after we finished<br />
high school we started seeing our<br />
friends come home in body bags.” one<br />
class member, Dave stoppelwerth,<br />
lost his life in the vietnam War. Dave<br />
is remembered at <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong><br />
each year through an english award in<br />
his name.<br />
When these men, now nearly seventy<br />
years old, completed high school, the<br />
united states was in great turmoil.<br />

nuclear threats were highlighted<br />
through the Bay of pigs Invasion.<br />
Freedom riders headed south,<br />
agitating for changes in racial<br />
discrimination and segregation<br />
policies. Here in northern<br />
Kentucky, <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong><br />
graduated men who would become<br />
leaders of this changing world. The<br />
school, then in the “new building,”<br />
(built in 1954) was staffed primarily<br />
by marianist priests and Brothers.<br />
today the school has changed<br />
significantly, adding women faculty<br />
members and a lay administration,<br />
a new facility, and cutting-edge<br />
technology. However, with men<br />
like the Class of 1961 serving as the<br />
foundation on which <strong>Covington</strong><br />
<strong>Catholic</strong> was built, CCH continues<br />
to produce leaders for greater<br />
Cincinnati and the world.<br />
Class of ’98 responds with record giving<br />
If you keep up with class giving from year to year, you probably noticed that this year the Class of ’98 rose to the top,<br />
seemingly from nowhere. general wisdom on giving tells us that donors who are at the top of their earning potential will be<br />
our highest givers, and when it comes to top donations by amount, that is true. However, when looking to the percentage<br />
of donors by class, ’98 won by a landslide. These grads, in their early thirties, have young children and are just getting<br />
established in their careers. However, motivated by the persuasion of one of their classmates, Chad summe, they really rose<br />
to the challenge. Chad began emailing and personally contacting each class member in January of <strong>2011</strong>, and continued until<br />
the end of the appeal. He let his class members know that tuition alone does not cover the operating expenses of the school.<br />
He reminded them of the good times they had when they were Colonels, and let them know that, with alumni support,<br />
<strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> gets better each year. Donations began rolling in, particularly through on-line giving. Thanks to all 39<br />
donors from the Class of ’98 for making a difference in the lives of current and future students.

To Whom It May Concern:<br />
On Friday 10/7/11 my husband and I<br />
were at Frisch’s in Fort Wright. That<br />
day your students had their special<br />
walk. Frisch’s was filled with [CCH]<br />
students. I just want you to know you<br />
have raised all your students right, to be<br />
gentlemen, kind, courteous, and special.<br />
I was there for over an hour and a half.<br />
They were never loud or out of hand.<br />
They ate, left tips and kept their tables<br />
neat when done. When ready to leave<br />
they sang their fight song, which left a<br />
smile on my face and tears in my eyes,<br />
remembering being young once. I was so<br />
proud to be there.<br />

We apologize for omitting Jim Meyers and his<br />
son Zach from the summer journal “Like Father,<br />

freshman this year.
In the spring of 2010, the community of park Hills and<br />
surrounding northern Kentucky neighborhoods were<br />
devastated by the death of 17 year-old maria schaffstein, a<br />
notre Dame academy senior. In response to the tragedy, the<br />
<strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> chamber choir was moved to record a<br />
memorial CD entitled “to Where You are.” This CD was met<br />
with unprecedented enthusiasm from many in the community<br />
looking for something good to come out of the tragedy. to date,<br />
the album has sold nearly 1000 copies and has raised $10,000.00.<br />
The funds from this CD have enabled <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> to establish the maria schaffstein<br />
memorial scholarship. maria’s parents, John and eileen, attended an all-school mass on<br />
september 22, <strong>2011</strong>, to formally announce the establishment of the scholarship. mr. and<br />
mrs. schaffstein also expressed their ongoing gratitude to the community for reaching out in<br />
honor of their daughter.<br />
The success of “to Where You are” will ensure that generations of <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong><br />
students will remember maria.<br />

Walking down the front hall of the main academic<br />
building, you may notice that the chapel doors<br />
have new stained glass windows. This feature was<br />
an original specification when the building was<br />
constructed in 2003. However, because of budget<br />
cuts, the windows were eliminated from the plans.<br />
tim Haders, CCH art teacher, always lamented that<br />
the windows were unable to be included. When his<br />
brother William Haders passed away suddenly from<br />
cancer in 2007, he asked that memorials be sent<br />
to the school. Funds were also raised through the<br />
William Haders memorial Wiffle Ball tournament.<br />
as donations poured in, tim felt that the windows<br />
would be a significant way to remember William.<br />
shortly after mr. Haders’ death, CovCath lost another<br />
important member of our extended family. mr. gene<br />
eckerle passed away in march of 2008. a father of<br />
four graduates, tom ’84, Kevin ’88, andy ’91 and<br />
matt ’96, gene helped start the Christian awakening<br />
retreat program at <strong>Covington</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong>. He led it<br />
for many years, and eventually passed leadership<br />
onto his son tom, currently a CCH science teacher<br />
and baseball coach. gene was a man of deep faith<br />
who mentored many CovCath students in their own<br />
faith journeys. gene’s memorials were also given to<br />
CovCath, and his son tom asked that they fund the<br />
stained glass windows as well.<br />
The windows, pictured, were installed in september<br />
of <strong>2011</strong>. Thank you to the Haders and eckerle<br />
families for allowing us to remember their loved ones<br />
in this special way.<br />
