What It Means to Grow Up a Dragon in Southlake
Regarding the August "Kids & Pets" issue, we wanted to share a perspective on something that often goes unspoken. Entering the Southlake community can be an intimidating experience for any family, but now that Gavin is a rising junior and Gresham is a rising 8th grader, I finally feel I have the perspective on the Carroll ISD experience to appreciate it more deeply.
What I see is a culture of success that finds a way to include everyone. It truly amazes me how many talented young student-athletes we have here, and I believe our feeder programs are what separate Southlake from other communities; there is a real science behind our tradition of teaching youth to be coachable. However, it is the broader "CISD factor"—encompassing everything that the district and its culture represent—that takes things to another level.
For this issue, Coach Castleberry and Melissa Reed Page have been gracious enough to give us some time, so we jumped on the opportunity to do a deeper dive into what it takes to be a Dragon. I think this context of community and development fits perfectly with our upcoming themes.
Additionally, I recently met with one of our partners, Dr. Beki Kellogg, the owner of Hope Hearing & Tinnitus Center. She has three Dragons starting their own journeys as well as a new puppy. Creekside Pet Care is also one of our biggest supporters with a team of talented and caring staff. I believe featuring these stories will further highlight the unique connections within our community.

TINNITUS Relief RESTORED
How Dr. Beki Kellogg, Au.D. is Restoring Sound, Connection, and Confidence
For Dr. Beki Kellogg, Au.D., Southlake is more than a place to live and work. It is home in the fullest sense of the word. It is where she is raising her three sons, building a thriving specialty practice, and serving a community she intentionally chose for its strong values, schools, and sense of connection.
As the owner and audiologist of Hope Hearing & Tinnitus Center, Dr. Kellogg has built her career around one guiding mission, helping people who have often been told there is no solution finally discover that there is.
“Southlake was a deliberate choice, and I couldn’t be happier with it,” she says. “Between the Carroll school district, the strong sense of community, and the incredible opportunities available for kids, it really is a special place to raise a family.”
That sense of community is not just something she observes, it is something she experiences daily as a mother. Her sons Brady (9), Baker (8), and Bennett (7) stay active in basketball, baseball, lacrosse, and football, filling their days with sports and friendships. Brady is happiest with a ball in his hands, whether he is playing a pickup game or cheering on friends from the sidelines. Baker has developed a true passion for lacrosse thanks to coaches who believed in him, while Bennett enjoys football, baseball, and, according to his mom with a laugh, “snacks.” The family also recently welcomed a new four legged member, Carl, an 8-monthold Cavapoo, who has quickly made himself at home.
Much of the Kellogg family’s life revolves around practices, games, and weekends spent together on the sidelines. Dr. Kellogg plans her work schedule around her boys’ games whenever possible and says some of her favorite family memories have come
from cheering them on. Whether traveling for Baker’s club lacrosse tournaments, watching the boys play Dragon Youth Football, taking family trips to Coronado or the lake, or simply seeing neighborhood kids fill the backyard swimming and riding bikes together, she says those everyday moments are what make Southlake feel like home.
Like many Southlake families, she says she has been deeply moved by how the community shows up for its children.
“There is such kindness here,” she says. “People genuinely pitch in and show up for one another. A perfect example is my middle son Baker’s lacrosse coach, Coach Kevin Chrapaty, who saw potential in him and has invested in him personally, encouraging him, developing his skills, and truly believing in him. That kind of community investment in our children is something I’m deeply grateful for.”
It is that same spirit of care and attention that defines her work at Hope Hearing.
Dr. Kellogg’s path into audiology was not a straight line. She began college as an education major, driven by a desire to help others, before shifting into speech pathology and eventually discovering audiology. What began as exploration became purpose.
“Audiology found me as much as I found it,” she explains. “What I find so uniquely rewarding is the immediacy of the impact. You can see the difference you make in someone’s life in real time, right there in the room with them.”
That realization deepened during her time in Denver, Colorado, where she trained in tinnitus treatment, a pivotal moment that would shape the rest of her career. There, she met patients who had been told their symptoms were something they simply had to endure.
“What I want is for every patient to leave with real hope and tangible improvement.”
“I saw how many people were suffering and had been told there was nothing that could be done,” she says. “I knew that wasn’t true. From that point on, I dedicated myself to helping people with tinnitus in a meaningful, evidence-based way.”
After earning her undergraduate degree from Baylor University and her Doctor of Audiology from the University of North Texas, Dr. Kellogg gained experience in both private practice and ENT settings. But her vision for patient care remained consistent, deeply individualized treatment that looks beyond a one size fits all approach.
“Every patient who walks through our doors has a unique story, unique symptoms, and unique needs,” she says. “Cookie cutter solutions don’t work in this field.”
That philosophy became the foundation of Hope Hearing & Tinnitus Center, which she first opened more than seven years ago in the Midwest before bringing the practice to Southlake three years ago.
From the beginning, her mission has been simple but powerful, give patients real hope backed by real results.
“I opened Hope Hearing with a clear mission,” she says. “To provide customized, quality care for people with hearing loss and tinnitus, especially those who had been told there was nothing that could be done for them. What I want is for every patient to leave with two things, real hope and tangible improvement in their tinnitus.”
Today, Hope Hearing & Tinnitus Center has become a destination practice for patients seeking specialized tinnitus care, with many traveling from outside Texas.
At its core, Dr. Kellogg says the practice is defined not just by its clinical expertise, but by its people.
“We are a tinnitus specialty practice,” she says. “That level of focused expertise makes a real difference in patient outcomes. But just as important is our team.”
She speaks with admiration about her colleagues, including Dr. Mary Allen Pollok and Patient Care Coordinator Charmaine Walden, who help shape the patient experience from the moment someone makes their first phone call or walks through the door.
“Dr. Pollok gives every patient her full attention and care, no matter how busy she is,” Dr. Kellogg says. “And Charmaine is often the first voice patients hear and the first smile they see. She makes people feel welcome and cared for immediately. We don’t rush anyone through. We take time, because so many of our patients come to us having already been told there’s no hope.”
One of the most meaningful parts of her work, she says, is witnessing transformation.
“We have had patients brought to tears because they can finally experience quiet again,” she says. “We’ve seen people start sleeping through the night, re engage
“From the moment a patient walks through our doors, our goal is simple: give them real hope and real answers, especially those who were once told nothing could be done.”
with their families, and show up for their lives in ways they haven’t been able to for years. Those moments never get old.”
While her professional life is deeply fulfilling, Dr. Kellogg’s commitment to community extends beyond the clinic. Hope Hearing has contributed to local churches, schools, and youth sports programs, including football and lacrosse, which holds special meaning for her family.
“It’s personal for us,” she says, referring again to Coach Chrapaty’s impact on her son. “We’ve seen firsthand how mentorship can shape a child’s confidence and character. Supporting that kind of environment matters to us.”
For Dr. Kellogg, Southlake is not only where she raises her children, it is also where she builds her vision for the future. And that future includes expanding access to specialized tinnitus care for patients who may never have known treatment options existed.
Above all, she hopes people understand one thing, whether they are across town or across the country.
“If you or someone you love is living with tinnitus or hearing loss, don’t lose hope,” she says. “That’s not just the name of our practice, it’s the promise behind it.”
And in Southlake, where her family’s life is woven into the same community she serves, that promise continues to grow stronger every day.

CREEKSIDE PET CARE
For most families, pets are much more than companions. They are loyal friends, trusted confidants, and cherished members of the family. At Creekside Pet Care Center in Keller, that philosophy guides every decision, every treatment, and every interaction with the animals and families they serve. From routine wellness visits to life-saving emergency care, the team is committed to providing compassionate, comprehensive veterinary medicine under one roof. That commitment begins with a simple philosophy.
"Our mission is simple: provide exceptional medical care while treating every pet as if they were our own. We strive to be accessible, compassionate, and supportive to both pets and the people who love them, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week," says Tess Tippit, Practice Manager at Creekside Pet Care.
Creekside Pet Care offers far more than routine veterinary appointments. As a full-service veterinary hospital, families have access to preventive care, diagnostics, surgery, dentistry, hospitalization, emergency and urgent care, boarding, daycare, and professional grooming, all within one trusted facility. That comprehensive approach means pets receive consistent, familiar care throughout every stage of life while owners enjoy the convenience of having all of their pet's needs met in one place.
Preventive medicine remains at the heart of everything the team does. Annual wellness examinations, vaccinations, parasite prevention, nutritional counseling,

and routine diagnostic screenings help identify potential health concerns before they become serious problems. By building longterm relationships with pets and their families, the veterinary team develops a deeper understanding of each animal's individual health history, lifestyle, and unique needs.
"Our goal is to support pets through every stage of life, from puppy and kitten visits to senior wellness and end-of-life care," Tippit explains.
As pets age, their medical needs naturally change. Creekside Pet Care provides senior wellness evaluations, advanced diagnostics, pain management, and ongoing monitoring to help older pets remain comfortable and active for as long as possible. Behavioral guidance is also available to help owners address common concerns, strengthening the relationship between pets and the people who love them.
Dental health is another important part of overall wellness that is often overlooked. Routine dental cleanings and oral examinations help prevent painful infections and
disease while contributing to better overall health. Combined with surgical services, and advanced diagnostics, Creekside Pet Care offers comprehensive medical care designed to improve both quality and length of life. Of course, veterinary medicine is rarely predictable.
"No two days are ever the same! On any given day, our team may be performing surgeries, seeing wellness appointments, treating hospitalized patients, handling emergencies, caring for boarding pets, grooming dogs, and helping families navigate difficult medical decisions. One moment we may be administering vaccines to a healthy puppy and the next we may be saving the life of a critically ill pet. It is fast-paced, challenging, and incredibly rewarding work," says Tippit.
One of Creekside Pet Care's greatest strengths is its ability to provide emergency and urgent care around the clock. Medical emergencies rarely happen during regular business hours, and knowing experienced
veterinary professionals are available 24 hours a day provides peace of mind for pet owners throughout Keller and the surrounding communities.
"We understand that emergencies do not happen on a schedule. Our team is trained to respond quickly and efficiently when pets need us most. Having emergency, urgent care, hospitalization, surgery, and general practice services all in one location allows us to provide continuity of care and support families through some of their most stressful moments," she says.
Because emergency care, hospitalization, surgery, diagnostics, and general practice services are all housed within the same hospital, pets benefit from seamless continuity of care. Medical records remain in one location, communication between departments is streamlined, and families work with a team that already knows both them and their pet. During some of life's most stressful moments, that familiarity can make all the difference.
The same compassionate philosophy extends beyond medical care. Creekside's boarding, daycare, and professional grooming services allow pets to remain in a familiar environment surrounded by caregivers they already know and trust. Whether families are traveling for work, planning a vacation, or simply scheduling a spa day for their four-legged companion, pets receive attentive, personalized care throughout their stay.
"Our team understands that veterinary visits can be stressful for both pets and their owners. We focus on low-stress handling techniques, compassionate care, and creating a welcoming environment. Whether a pet is visiting for a wellness exam, staying for boarding, or being hospitalized, our goal is to make them feel as comfortable and secure as possible. We take the time to learn each pet's personality and preferences so we can tailor their experience to their individual needs," Tippit says.
The staff also recognizes that veterinary visits can be stressful for both pets and owners. By using low-stress handling techniques, creating a welcoming atmosphere, and taking time to build trust with every patient, the team works to reduce anxiety while making each visit as positive as possible.
As temperatures continue to climb through the Texas summer, Tippit encourages pet owners to remain especially vigilant. Fresh water, shade, and avoiding walks during the hottest parts of the day are essential. Hot pavement can quickly burn sensitive paw pads, and pets should never be left unattended inside a parked vehicle, even for only a few minutes. Signs of heat stress, including excessive panting, weakness, collapse, vomiting, or bright red gums, should always be treated as a medical emergency requiring immediate veterinary care.
Creekside Pet Care's commitment reaches well beyond its hospital walls. The practice regularly partners with local rescue organizations, participates in adoption events, supports educational outreach, and proudly works alongside DFW Pug Rescue. The team believes helping animals extends beyond treating illness and includes supporting responsible pet ownership and strengthening the bond between pets and their families.
Another meaningful initiative is the Creekside Cares Fund, which helps families facing financial hardship obtain necessary veterinary care for their pets. Community donations help bridge the financial gap for families who might otherwise be unable to pursue recommended treatments, ensuring more pets receive the care they deserve during difficult circumstances.
"Veterinary medicine is more than a profession—it is a calling. Every member of our team, from our veterinarians and technicians to our receptionists, kennel staff, groomers, and support team, shares a passion for caring for animals. We know that pets are family, and we are honored every time someone trusts us with their care," Tippit says.
Whether it's welcoming a new puppy for its very first wellness exam, providing specialized treatment for a beloved senior companion, responding to an emergency in the middle of the night, or simply offering a safe place to stay while families are away, Creekside Pet Care continues to deliver compassionate, comprehensive care every hour of every day. Their commitment to exceptional medicine, genuine relationships, and unwavering support has made them a trusted partner for countless families, ensuring pets receive the love, attention, and expert care they deserve throughout every chapter of life.
SOUTHLAKE’S TRADITION OF EXCELLENCE AND HEART
EMERALD BELLES BUILT ON LEGACY

The Emerald Belles of Southlake continue to stand as one of the most recognized high school drill teams in the country, a legacy shaped over decades under the leadership of Melissa Reed Page. For Melissa, the program is far more than dance. It is a family rooted in connection, discipline, and service within Southlake.
Melissa began her journey with the Emerald Belles in 1997, marking her first year as director. Now in her 30th year leading the Belles and 34th year overall as a director, she reflects on a lifetime dedicated to shaping young women through performance and purpose. “This community is like family to me,” she said. “I have had multiple generations of sisters. I don’t forget a Belle. Alumni often tell me, especially those I have not seen in 20 years, ‘I can’t believe you still remember me.’”
The Emerald Belles recently celebrated their 60th anniversary, a milestone that brought together hundreds of alumni who returned to perform at halftime. More than 700 tickets were sold for the celebration game, underscoring the deep roots the program has in Southlake.
National attention elevated the team after their appearance on America’s Got Talent, which opened doors to new opportunities and visibility. Melissa encourages her

dancers to stay grounded through it all. “Be grateful for these experiences, because this is not the norm for a high school drill team,” she said.
Memorable milestones include performances on The Kelly Clarkson Show, halftime shows with the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, appearances at Dallas Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs games, and collaborations with Dallas Cowboys entertainment teams. Each opportunity, she said, brings pride and perspective for the dancers.
The America’s Got Talent experience remains especially meaningful. Melissa shared that the 2019 season coincided with a deeply personal tragedy, the loss of her only child, Reed Bartosh. During that time, she said the team became a source of strength and compassion. “It was a whirlwind of sadness and blessing,” she said. “I wanted the girls to understand that everyone is struggling with something.”
She also describes the excitement of watching dancers wait in the tunnel at AT&T Stadium before stepping onto the field for sold-out Dallas Cowboys games. Similar experiences with the Dallas Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs reinforce the professionalism the team is exposed to, along with rehearsals alongside the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, especially during seasons when national filming crews are present.
Their appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show also held deep meaning. Melissa shared it began through a postAGT connection and centered on gratitude and thankfulness. Former dancers spoke about what they gained from the program, while she emphasized modeling kindness, compassion, and leadership beyond technique.
That message continues to shape the program’s culture. Community service remains central to the Emerald Belles identity, with each squad selecting a mission project each summer. This past year alone, the team recorded more than 2,300 service hours. “Be Kind Be A Belle is not just a motto,” she said. “We live it.”
The impact of service extends beyond performance skills, building leadership, empathy, and awareness. Melissa hopes each Belle leaves the program with discipline, perseverance, and kindness that carries into adulthood.
Looking ahead, she remains focused on the lasting legacy of the Emerald Belles in Southlake. “The legacy lives on through the inspiration they give others,” she said, “both through performance and their servant heart.”
“THE LEGACY LIVES ON THROUGH THE INSPIRATION THEY GIVE OTHERS, BOTH THROUGH PERFORMANCE AND THEIR SERVANT HEART.”
TREY & KATIE KENNEDY
ON MARRIAGE, KIDS, AND THE COMEDY OF REAL LIFE
Trey Kennedy makes a living finding comedy in regular life. Marriage. Toddlers. Yoga pants. The Thursday-night scramble between school dropoffs, soccer practice, and whatever has to be done by morning. Twelve years in, it shows: millions of followers across every platform, three stand-up specials, a sold-out Relatable Tour, and a style of humor fans send each other captioned, “Are you watching me?” He delivers the kind of comedy that travels because everyone’s living some version of it.
Katie, his wife of six years, is a former biomedical engineer who also built a modeling career. She’s now raising their kids and co-hosting Correct Opinions alongside Trey — the show where the two of them swap takes on marriage, parenting, and whatever came up that week.
Trey has been at this longer than people realize. An Edmond, Oklahoma kid who grew up playing basketball described himself as a “shy kid who never thought he’d be an entertainer.” He started making videos while attending Oklahoma State University. After building millions of followers on Vine before the platform shut down, he gave himself six months on Instagram and Facebook to see whether he could rebuild from zero. He did. Stand-up soon followed. His first special, Are You For Real?, streams on YouTube; the second, Grow Up, on Amazon Prime; the third, built around the Relatable Tour, wrapped earlier this year. “I’ve been trying to be funny every week for like twelve years now,” he says. A slow climb, made one bit at a time.

“I’ve been trying to be funny every week for like twelve years now.”
Most of what Trey writes lately starts in his own kitchen. Thomas is three and a half, and he is, in his father’s words, “a movie.” He narrates his own life from the moment his eyes open and mispronounces words in ways his parents now repeat to each other because no one else would believe them. His younger sister, Eva, is what Katie calls “the calm one.” With a third now in the mix, the Kennedys are officially outnumbered.
After six years of marriage, Trey and Katie have learned that the partnership runs best when it gets its own time on the calendar. So once a week, they leave the kids with a sitter and go out for coffee. “You need a system,” Katie says. “It’s about taking time to look each other in the eye. Not the kids. Not the cameras. Just each other.”
The same instinct shapes the work. Most of Trey’s trial and error happens onstage or on Instagram, but the first read is always Katie’s. “There’s only been one time ever I’ve had to be like, ‘you’re not doing that,’” she says. The rest of the time, she just laughs first.

TRAINING THE DRAGON STANDARD
THE FOUNDATION BEHIND CHAMPIONSHIP-LEVEL PERFORMANCE
Football is more than a sport in Southlake, it is part of the identity, tradition, and pride of the community. In a city known for championship expectations and a culture built around excellence on the field, the work happening behind the scenes is just as important as Friday night lights. One of the key figures shaping that foundation is Doug Castleberry, Carroll ISD’s Strength and Conditioning Coach, whose role reaches far beyond lifting weights and conditioning drills. This position within Carroll Independent School District was created in 2023 and represents a shift in how Southlake Dragon student athletes are developed across all sports.
“The position takes the stress and liability of training off the coaches and allows them to worry about player skill development,” he said. “It allows me to plan our training curriculum year round and make sure our athletes are available, strong, conditioned and confident. Most importantly, it allows me to teach athletes how to properly train, when to push, when to dial it back, how to fuel their bodies, how to actively recover, and develop life skills and habits that lead to an active healthy lifestyle.” His work is woven into nearly every athletic program on campus, from Dragons football and volleyball to basketball, soccer, tennis, baseball, softball, swimming, water polo, wrestling, and both Dawson and Carroll Middle School athletics.

“Typically each group has different demands as every sport is different, but we keep things very simple and try to be brilliant at the basics before getting advanced,” he said. “I am an extension of the program and I will use as much time as the head coaches are willing to give me.” The training approach is built on structure, progression, and communication, beginning with pre activation preparation, movement work, and loading based on athlete readiness. “If we can’t body weight squat with great technique, I am not going to intensify that load with any weight,” he said. “With 12 programs and only one me, our coaches are a pivotal part in making sure the standard is upheld.”
The journey spans two decades in education. It began as an English teacher and football and baseball coach at Castleberry High School. From there, it moved to Northwest High School, where eight years were spent before transitioning fully into strength and conditioning. “I was an athlete my entire life, I love competition, and when the air was taken out of the ball for me, I wasn’t ready to let it go,” he said. “So I figured
I could help kids develop and have more opportunities than I had.” Over the years, thousands of student-athletes, including the Dragons, have been coached and mentored.
When asked what is most enjoyable about the work, the answer points to athlete motivation. “The best part about working with athletes is they have something hanging over their head, playing time,” he said. “They are intrinsically motivated. The reward is when you see them compete and cash the check from all the training they put in.” Strength and conditioning coaches often operate in the background, but that role is embraced. “When you see them dig in and physically wear opponents down, that’s the reward.”
Beyond performance, the focus is long-term development. The goal is to prepare athletes for life beyond high school. “Be intentional about what we do and do hard stuff better than everybody else,” he said. “Life is hard, physically and emotionally, and if they haven’t dealt with that before the real world, they’ll crumble when adversity hits.” Some of the most meaningful moments come when former Dragons athletes share how prepared they felt entering college athletics. “Occasionally I will get messages from past athletes saying they are their college strength coach’s favorite and that they use me to
demonstrate certain things because their technique is great,” he said. “That feels pretty good.” Pride also comes from championships, records, and team milestones.
What makes Southlake’s athletic culture stand out is the shared standard across the community. “Carroll is special because of the standards and expectations from our coaches and parents,” he said. “It truly takes a village.” Parents, teachers, and the broader community all help shape Dragon athletes into disciplined young adults. “We all have a hand in making sure the student athletes that walk out of Carroll are productive, hard working young people of integrity who know how to be part of something bigger than themselves,” he said.
For young athletes hoping to compete at the next level, the advice remains simple. “Train year round, not just during the off season,” he said. “Take nutrition seriously, eat better, and get your eight hours of sleep. You can’t out train bad nutrition and sleep deprivation.” After 20 years in education and athletics, motivation remains personal. “I am motivated by my family,” he said. “I want my wife and three boys to be proud of who I am.”
At the core of the philosophy is one belief. “Coaching is 100 percent about relationships,” he said. “X’s and O’s will only get you so far. If kids know you care, they’ll run through a wall for you.” In a city where football defines tradition and excellence defines expectation, this position continues to shape the unseen foundation that helps Dragon athletes rise to meet it.
