THE GOSPEL MUSIC OF WHITNEY

HOUSTON

& Johnny Cash, Kenny Rogers, Roy Orbison and more!

At the close of this month, the city of Lexington is poised to break ground on Town Branch Park, a 10-acre public greenspace behind Rupp Arena that will connect more than 22 miles of

walking and biking trails branching throughout the city.

The park, said Ann Bakhaus, chair of the volunteer board of directors spearheading the project, will mark “a transformational

change to the heart of downtown Lexington, one that will bring people together and last for generations to come.”

Bakhaus, who’s worked on the park for nearly eight years, said

TODAY’S KET

CREATES

- Ann Bakhaus

Chair of the Town Branch Park Advisory Board

she’s happy to devote her time to a project like this because it’s designed to be shared by all and to strengthen the community ties in a city she loves and calls home.

In many ways, she said, the park is a lot like KET, another community resource she loves and supports.

“What’s so special about KET is that it touches so many lives, and it creates opportunities for children and people of all ages throughout the state,” Bakhaus said. “Everybody knows and loves KET because they know how effective KET is.”

As Kentucky’s only statewide network, KET serves as an important informational hub for the Commonwealth, one that’s open to everyone to enjoy and use, she said.

Parents and caregivers turn to KET because they trust the network’s children’s programming, and early childhood resources are a source of positive, educational content that help young learners engage with the world around them.

“If you’re raising a family, KET’s programs are very important because you know they won’t have violence or other things that aren’t appropriate for young children,” she said, adding that she has fond memories of her own children watching Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood during their formative years. “All the programs

have an educational component to them, and they’re very wholesome –I like wholesome.”

Bakhaus said she also gravitates to KET for its public affairs coverage, programs such as Kentucky Tonight, Kentucky Edition and KET Forums that delve into the Commonwealth’s most pressing issues of the day and cultivate statewide discussions about legislative, healthcare and workforce topics.

“When an election is drawing near, you can bet I’ll be tuning in to KET,” she adds. “It’s where I know I can get good, honest information, much like I could get from David Brinkley or Walter Cronkite many years ago.”

Another facet of KET that’s near and dear to her is that the network’s programs tell Kentucky’s story, preserving the state’s history through programs like Kentucky Life and documentaries about its key historical figures and places.

“It’s very important to me that we take care of our history and pass it along to our children and grandchildren,” she said. “I think they learn a lot from that. And KET should be credited for bringing these stories into our living rooms. It does such a great job of helping us understand our home state and what makes it so special.”

Hearing from longtime friend and supporter Ann Bakhaus is a wonderful reminder of the importance of volunteers and the incredible contributions that are made in our communities by those willing to give their time and support to worthy causes.

We appreciate and thank all those who volunteer for and support KET, helping to move our programs and services forward. It’s in part because of this that we can not only provide all the great programming you love but also serve Kentucky as the state’s largest classroom.

As students are welcomed back to school this month, we remain dedicated to supporting learning and achievement. For almost 55 years, our guiding principle has been to ensure learners throughout Kentucky have access to effective, engaging content and classroom instruction. Today, hundreds of quality, standards-aligned online instructional resources, developed by our education team, are used in every Kentucky public school district as well as classrooms across the country.

As we invite viewers to make a donation during this month’s SummerPledge event, we thank you for supporting all we do at KET.
