he Budweiser Taste of St. Louis was recently named readers’ choice “Best Food Event” in St. Louis Magazine’s A-List for the third straight year and will again be held at the Chesterfield Amphitheater in Central Park and Chesterfield Village.

Now in its eleventh year, the Budweiser Taste of St. Louis welcomes five-star Celebrity Chef Grant MacPherson on Saturday, September 19. Chef MacPherson’s career spans five continents and four decades. He has cooked adventurous fi?ve-star food, developed menus, designed and run kitchens and built top-notch teams at such iconic institutions as the Ra?es Hotel in Singapore, Bellagio Las Vegas, Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Macau, several Regent Hotels and Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton Big Island, and Sandy Lane Hotel in Barbados. He also collaborated with the late Steve Jobs on dining facilities on Apple’s campus. Chef MacPherson will be showcasing his culinary skills on the Goose Island School of Cooking Stage. Admission is free. New to the 2015 Budweiser Taste of St. Louis is the Goose Island School of Cooking, powered by L'Ecole Culinaire. Local, regional and national chefs – along with beverage experts – will host demonstrations designed to be both fun and educational. Guests will see everything from special cooking techniques to food and beverage pairings to can’t-miss culinary presentations – all in an intimate setting designed to enhance the overall experience. A full lineup for the Goose Island School of Cooking will be announced soon. The Goose Island School of Cooking, powered by L’Ecole Culinaire, is sponsored, in part, by Feast Magazine. The ever-popular 314 Hot Sauce Restaurant Row this year features more than 35 restaurants located from downtown to St. Charles, including past favorites like Annie Gunn’s, Drunken Fish and EdgeWild and newcomers that include Dalie’s (the latest in the Pappy’s family), Walnut Grille, Ices Plain & Fancy in Tower Grove, and Prasino. A full list of participating restaurants can be found at the end of this release, as well as on

The Kids’ Kitchen is curated by SCOPE – Science and Citizens Organized for Purpose and Exploration.

Artwalk is sponsored, in part, by 103.3 KLOU and Chesterfield Parks, Recreation, & Arts. An incredibly popular attraction year after year is The Marketplace, where local and national businesses showcase their wares, services and style for all to enjoy. Attendees of the Taste can shop, sample, dance, try on, try out, be entertained, learn and receive great giveaways. Musical acts for the Dillard’s Concert Stage will be announced later in July. The Dillard’s Concert Stage is sponsored, in part, 106.5 The Arch, West Newsmagazine, Mid Rivers Newsmagazine and the Riverfront Times Admission to the 2015 Budweiser Taste of St. Louis is once again free and includes access to all areas. Proceeds from sales and cooperative activities with vendors and sponsors have helped the Budweiser Taste of St. Louis support a multitude of different charities since its inception 11 years ago. The event has helped raise more than $350,000 in charitable donations to benefit organizations such as Food Outreach, St. Patrick Center, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Blues Society, Benton Park Neighborhood Association and Soulard Restoration Group, just to name a few! Some of this year’s fundraising and awarenessraising events for nonprofits include the announcement on-site of the recipient of a $2,500 donation from Farmers Insurance and a “friendly” culinary battle between the Monarch Fire Department and the Chesterfield Police Department on the Stella Artois Culinary Stage benefitting Backstoppers. Additional charitable activities will be announced at a later date.

Personalities Each issue, we’ll be showcasing some of the many people who help Chesterfield & West County thrive as a community. Maybe you’ll recognize one or more of them during a shopping trip or other excursion. Be sure to say Hello!

Don Hamblen President Wings of Hope Don recently began his important job at Wings of Hope in January of this year. Prior to that he was Chief Marketing Officer in the retail sector. He is married to Cassandra for 36 years and they have two grown sons. Cassie volunteers at Wings. They live in Chesterfield Pointe Villas having moved from St. Peters in the 90’s. Don was born in Indianapolis and graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy and afterwards served for 24 years in the active and reserve Navy. He loves to fly, so leading Wings allows him to combine that passion with helping others. He also flies with the St. Louis Flying Club, is a member of the Civil Air Patrol, St. Louis Aviation Association, Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce and the Flying Club. Don appreciates the Chesterfield area for the close proximity to Spirit Airport, convenient shopping, dining, recreational opportunities and attractive neighborhoods.

Fedora Amis, Writer of Victorian Whodunits Fedora has strived to be a writer for 12 years. She is widowed and lives in Chesterfield and has one son, Skimmer, with whom she writes Science fiction and fantasy. She is originally from Sedalia, the setting for her next book ‘Mayhem at Buffalo Bill’s Wild West’ to be released in 2016. Her current book ‘Jack the Ripper, St. Louis’ is on local newstands. She attended the University of Central MO. Before becoming an author she was a high school teacher. In addition to writing, Fedora loves to travel and attend live theatre. She shops locally at Dierbergs and Dillards and her favorite restaurants are Gitto’s and Manno’s, but Fedora says she is a sucker for Steak & Shake burgers! She loves attending concerts at the amphitheater, public scuptures, the Butterfly House and Faust Park. She encourages others to move here for the excellent schools, great shopping and easy access to anywhere.

William Kirchoff Owner, Monarch Land Co. Bill was raised on a farm near Creve Coeur Lake where he attended a one room school! He graduated in the first Parkway H.S. class in 1959, then from Missouri colleges, and served two years with the Army Corps of Engineers in Vietnam. He has been married to his high school sweetheart, Sandra, for 54 years and raised four children on Wild Horse Creek Road, having moved there 40 years ago when if cars met on the road the drivers waved at each other! Bill retired from U.S. Gypsum Co. after 30 years and started his company managing real estate investments. He is a 28 year member of the Monarch-Chesterfield Levee District Board, served on the first Chesterfield Planning Commission and chaired the Chesterfield Valley Master Plan committee. He enjoys Harley tripping, the Ozarks, Annie Gunn’s, Faust Park and traveling.- “It’s very comfortable here”

Mark Ohlendorf St. Louis County Parks Foundation Mark and his family are active in the St. Louis community. His father Howard donated land for two parks in St. Louis County including the carousel that is now in Faust Park. Mark was born in St. Louis, attended CBC H.S. and St. Ambrose College in Davenport Iowa. He is married to Sue and they have four children and nine grandchildren. He joined the family business, Ohlendorf Appliance Laboratory, with his father and expanded the business and operated it until retiring last year. He is now spearheading the St. Louis County Parks Foundation to raise money to improve the infrastucture and amenities of St. Louis County Parks. Mark likes to fish, travel, spend time with family, and enjoys the outdoors. He loves to dine at Duffy’s and attend area art festivals. He is passionate about the St. Louis County parks.

Adam Paul Mayor of Ellisville Adam was elected mayor at age 31. He lives in Ellisville with his wife Dominique and two children. He was born in Springfield, IL., the youngest of 11 children, and attended IL. State in Bloomington. He is employed as a procurement manager by Amdocs, a telecommunication company. Adam loves to fish, golf, and spend time with family during his time off. He enjoys the area outdoor concerts, farmers markets and the fireworks around town and likes to eat at Walnut Grill and shop at Lucky’s market. He recommends families move to Ellisville because of the safety factor, cost of living, new housing and its convenience to shops and parks. Adam is a civic minded politician and is proud of his city which is the ‘hottest of 91 municipalities’ in St. Louis County. He is a member of the West County Chamber, Kiwanis and United Way.

David Hilliard President, CEO of WYMAN This year marked the 50th year Dave was on the WYMAN payroll! He started as a summer camp counselor for seven years, 43 on the professional staff, and 40 as CEO. WYMAN’s roots are in the historic Kiwanis Camp Wyman and Lions Den Outdoor Learning Center both operating in Wildwood.

World Bird Sanctuary

St. Louis Zoo www.stlouiszoo.org 800-966-8877 Our own St. Louis Zoo is one of the few free zoos in the United States. Forest Park is a fitting setting for this attraction; it has been a favorite family destination since it opened in 1904. The Zoo’s 90 acres is home to more than 560 species of animals, many of them endangered and rare. With an emphasis on natural settings and exhibits as well as educational opportunities and entertainment, this is a treasure that every child in West County should experience at least once in his/her lifetime. Each year brings new attractions and enhanced settings for visitors and animals. If it flies, crawls, roars, clops, swims, slithers or strides—you can find it at the Zoo.

Wild Bird Sanctuary

www.worldbirdsanctuary.org 125 Bald Eagle Ridge Road Valley Park 636-225-4390 World Bird Sanctuary was founded in 1977 by Ornithologist Walter C.

Open daily throughout the year (except Thanksgiving and Christmas) the Sanctuary is dedicated to providing help and protection to birds of prey on its more than 300 acres of parkland. In addition to eagles, falcons, hawks, buzzards, owls, vultures, condors and other birds, it is also home to mammals, parrots and reptiles. The Sanctuary houses a wildlife hospital you can tour, a Nature Center, and educational exhibits. It offers wildlife walks, owl events, “Birds in Concert” shows “World Eagle Day” and numerous other events each month. Entry is free: consider one of their many donation options.

Lukas Liquors on the Numerical Rating System for Wine... Some wine buyers get confused with the numerical rating system on wine. They see a wine with 88 points and another wine with 91 points. In fairness, the numeric rating system is a recent phenomenon. Robert Parker, founder of the Wine Advocate, introduced the numerical point system of grading wines in the 1970's. The turn of the 21st century saw a surge by consumers in taking these scores more seriously. The system to rate a wine is done with points, 50 to 100. You can relate this system to an A to F "grade." In general, a 85 to 90-point score on wine is considered "above average" to "good."90 to 95 points is "outstanding" and 95 to 100 points is "extraordinary." Where the rating system gets confusing is the person or organization issuing the ratings. Everybody's taste is different. It's up to you what magazine or critic you want to believe in. Most retailers tend to use the highest rating they can find. They believe their customers will ignore who actually gave a wine their score. A real liquor store posts ratings based on the credibility of the person, not because the score was high. Robert Parker with the Wine Advocate and Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar are the two best wine critics. They receive no endorsement money or advertising dollars from other wineries. If you are ever in doubt about what wines to buy, Robert Parker says "ask the people that sell wine for a living."

he Budweiser Taste of St. Louis was recently named readers’ choice “Best Food Event” in St. Louis Magazine’s A-List for the third straight year and will again be held at the Chesterfield Amphitheater in Central Park and Chesterfield Village.

Now in its eleventh year, the Budweiser Taste of St. Louis welcomes five-star Celebrity Chef Grant MacPherson on Saturday, September 19. Chef MacPherson’s career spans five continents and four decades. He has cooked adventurous fi?ve-star food, developed menus, designed and run kitchens and built top-notch teams at such iconic institutions as the Ra?es Hotel in Singapore, Bellagio Las Vegas, Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Macau, several Regent Hotels and Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton Big Island, and Sandy Lane Hotel in Barbados. He also collaborated with the late Steve Jobs on dining facilities on Apple’s campus. Chef MacPherson will be showcasing his culinary skills on the Goose Island School of Cooking Stage. Admission is free. New to the 2015 Budweiser Taste of St. Louis is the Goose Island School of Cooking, powered by L'Ecole Culinaire. Local, regional and national chefs – along with beverage experts – will host demonstrations designed to be both fun and educational. Guests will see everything from special cooking techniques to food and beverage pairings to can’t-miss culinary presentations – all in an intimate setting designed to enhance the overall experience. A full lineup for the Goose Island School of Cooking will be announced soon. The Goose Island School of Cooking, powered by L’Ecole Culinaire, is sponsored, in part, by Feast Magazine. The ever-popular 314 Hot Sauce Restaurant Row this year features more than 35 restaurants located from downtown to St. Charles, including past favorites like Annie Gunn’s, Drunken Fish and EdgeWild and newcomers that include Dalie’s (the latest in the Pappy’s family), Walnut Grille, Ices Plain & Fancy in Tower Grove, and Prasino. A full list of participating restaurants can be found at the end of this release, as well as on

The Kids’ Kitchen is curated by SCOPE – Science and Citizens Organized for Purpose and Exploration. The ArtWalk returns to offer Budweiser Taste of St. Louis patrons the ability to purchase oneof-a-kind work by more than 30 regional professional artists. Artwalk is sponsored, in part, by 103.3 KLOU and Chesterfield Parks, Recreation, & Arts. An incredibly popular attraction year after year is The Marketplace, where local and national businesses showcase their wares, services and style for all to enjoy. Attendees of the Taste can shop, sample, dance, try on, try out, be entertained, learn and receive great giveaways. Musical acts for the Dillard’s Concert Stage will be announced later in July. The Dillard’s Concert Stage is sponsored, in part, 106.5 The Arch, West Newsmagazine, Mid Rivers Newsmagazine and the Riverfront Times Admission to the 2015 Budweiser Taste of St. Louis is once again free and includes access to all areas. Proceeds from sales and cooperative activities with vendors and sponsors have helped the Budweiser Taste of St. Louis support a multitude of different charities since its inception 11 years ago. The event has helped raise more than $350,000 in charitable donations to benefit organizations such as Food Outreach, St. Patrick Center, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Blues Society, Benton Park Neighborhood Association and Soulard Restoration Group, just to name a few! Some of this year’s fundraising and awarenessraising events for nonprofits include the announcement on-site of the recipient of a $2,500 donation from Farmers Insurance and a “friendly” culinary battle between the Monarch Fire Department and the Chesterfield Police Department on the Stella Artois Culinary Stage benefitting Backstoppers. Additional charitable activities will be announced at a later date.
