JACK

Jack is a 1-year-old Ocherese – a mix between a Poodle, Pekinese and Maltese.

His human, Charlotte, states that "Although not officially trained as a therapy dog, he does visit the nursing home where my mom resides. He brings much joy to the residents just prancing down the halls. Some of the residents hold him, and he is so gentle even though there is still lots of puppy in his personality. He just understands and sits quietly in their laps. The residents tell me they used to have dogs, and it is so touching to see their smiles."

Profile

Kip is a foster fail from Derby City Dog Rescue. I began fostering after pulling him from LMAS on July 6, 2012. On July 22, my first husband passed away from cancer and liver disease. Kip saved me during the most difficult time of my life. A few months later, I officially made him mine.

I couldn't give him up. I didn't rescue him — he rescued me.

HELPING TO SAY A

Loving Goodbye Aaron Scott.

A

aron Scott has arrived at a dream job he never dreamed of.

So the phone at Faithful Companions never goes to voicemail. Whether during business hours, on the weekend or in the middle of the night, someone always answers – even if that means getting out of bed to take a call that’s been forwarded to their cell.

As a funeral director familiar with the grief of losing a loved one, and as a lifelong animal lover, Scott is in his element when he’s helping bereaved pet owners. Sometimes, he says, they come to him not knowing what to do. He explains all their options, and in the end, he knows they’re satisfied with what they chose.

“People call, and they want to talk.

That’s part of it,” Scott says. “You lisWES ten to them, you get to know about KERRICK them and their pet and see if there’s But back in Jeffersonville during a anything in addition to what we norbreak from his undergrad at Murray State University, he went to work at the funeral mally do that we can do to can help them out.”

Scott’s family started Faithful Companions in 2003, and business has been growing 5-6 percent every year.

Partly, that’s because cremation has become a popular option, especially for pet owners who live in areas where they can’t bury animals, or who are planning on moving soon. And there are only a few Louisville area businesses that do it.

But the key to Faithful Companions’ success seems to be the character of the people who run it.

They draw their inspiration from the legacy left by the first generation of Scotts, who started the funeral home in 1930.

“We love to sit down in front of people and help them,” Scott says. “They get to tell us about themselves, about their pet, about their mom or dad, and we get to help them in any way that they want.

That is the most rewarding thing – knowing that you helped somebody in their time of need.” VT For more information, call 812.283.PETS or visit faithful-companions.com.

A Family Tradition for Four Generations of Women

I

BY HARCOURT ALLEN '16, Former Student Body President at Louisville Collegiate School

n 1915, Louisville Collegiate School opened its doors at 512 W. Ormsby Ave. as a college preparatory school for girls. Back then, around eight students sat in a classroom wearing untucked white blouses, knee-length navy skirts and fashionable navy scarves. Students traveled to school on the blue bus not to where Collegiate is located today but to downtown, where campus sat on Ormsby Avenue. This is the Collegiate my great-grandmother Grancy knew.

In 1958, Collegiate was still an all-girls school. Students sported non-uniform navy skirts, presumably a bit longer than those worn today, and plain, white, collared shirts covered with navy sweaters; the look was topped off with loafers and absolutely no lipstick. During school, students studied a variety of subjects such as English and math. Girls took dance and gym in the now auditorium, and at recess, they played big games of soccer outside of the single Collegiate building while drinking milk or juice. Lunch was served family-style by the head of the table, and students worked on the Pandemonium newspaper, played halfcourt basketball and even got their names on an orange and gray banner for Amazon field

hockey even though participation was forbidden

by Collegiate. Each grade was assigned to either the blue or gold team and engaged in spirited competitions throughout the school year. This is the Collegiate my grandmother Teeta knew.

In 1988, the second class of boys graduated from Collegiate. Students all wore what we now call "special occasion dress" every day: ties and navy knee-high socks, unless someone – like my mother – was Harcourt Allen, '16. super cool and scrunched them around her ankles.

Amazons became a school-sanctioned mascot, and pep rallies before every game helped the field hockey team to an Apple and State victory. The Latin club won the school contest to name the Collegiate boys, and so the Titans were born. Most of the 500 students handwrote their final drafts and did research in books. The six boys and 25 girls made up the largest graduating class at that point in the school's history, and instead of graduation parties, they attended prom the same night they graduated in the same white tuxes and puffysleeved, floor-length dresses with big bows that they wore at the ceremony earlier that day in the gym. This is the Collegiate my mother, Chenoweth, knew.

In 2015, Collegiate celebrated 100 years. This past school year, students wore polos and jumpers and kilts and khakis and tennis shoes and makeup and even dyed hair. Students had block scheduling and classes with up to 20 kids in the four school buildings we now have. They played GaGa and basketball at break and ran around the playground during recess. Titans and Amazons competed at Champion's Trace, and everyone always saw the plays, concerts and art shows in the fine arts building.

They sat in the Davis Commons or their advisor's room to work on homework, study for tests or talk to friends. This is the Collegiate I knew.

It's amazing how some things are so different now, while some things have stayed the same throughout the generations. Collegiate has gone from eight to 700 students, from all girls to coed and from one building to four, but it has stayed the same community with the same mission, honor and school spirit it has always enjoyed.

I'm proud to say my family and many others have called Collegiate home for the past 100 years. Here's to the next 100 years of academic excellence at Louisville Collegiate School.

Thanks for being a part of our family. VT

THE HEALING PLACE BECOMES A SMOKE-FREE FACILITY

creative capital. It becomes almost a self-fulfilling prophecy.”

The Healing Place, Louisville’s nationally-recognized addiction recovery center, has gone smoke-free. Since June 16, smoking is no longer allowed on any of The Healing Place’s three campuses: two in Louisville and one in Campbellsville.

KyCAD President Terry Tyler commented, “Len has really set us up with his leadership from the academic fundraising side. And now Todd is stepping in to help propel us forward on local arts engagement. We have been so fortunate to have both of them help guide us at this key point in our history.”

“The recovery community has ignored nicotine addiction for a long time,” says Director of Program Services Heather Gibson. “It is outdated thinking that persons in recovery should be able to smoke as many cigarettes as they want because it helps them stop using drugs or alcohol. Nicotine is an extremely addictive drug, and tobacco-related diseases are the leading cause of death for people in recovery.”

Clients will not be required to quit smoking; they will just no longer be able to use tobacco products while they are on property. The Healing Place is working with the Louisville Metro Department of Public Health and Wellness and the Freedom From Smoking program to offer smoking cessation classes and nicotine replacement therapy at no cost to clients who wish to quit. The only exception to the non-smoking policy is The Healing Place’s Detox units.

FIRST HEART STRUCTURE 3D PRINTED IN ZERO GRAVITY WITH ADULT HUMAN STEM CELLS A trio of high-tech companies have teamed up to develop a space-hardened 3D bioprinter capable of manufacturing human organs and tissues in orbit. A June 14 test of the consortium’s prototype resulted in the first successful printing of cardiac and vascular structures in zero gravity with adult human stem cells. The experiment was performed 30,000 feet over the Gulf of Mexico aboard a Zero Gravity Corporation aircraft capable of repeatedly producing several seconds of sustained microgravity.

Led by longtime NASA contractor Techshot Inc. – along with nScrypt Inc., a manufacturer of industrial 3D bioprinters and electronics printers, and bioink developer Bioficial Organs Inc. – the effort could result in the ability to manufacture transplantable organs in space for patients on earth, and help enable long-duration human exploration of deep space.

Data from the flight will be used to design and construct a smaller and more robust bioprinter, which Vellinger hopes to see launched and operated autonomously aboard a commercial Blue Origin suborbital space capsule next January. A version designed for the International Space Station (ISS), capable of printing thicker, more complex tissues is expected to follow in 2018.

FORMER CHAIR OF KENTUCKY ARTS COUNCIL TO LEAD KYCAD BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Kentucky College of Art + Design at Spalding University (KyCAD) has welcomed Todd Lowe, managing partner at Parthenon, as its new chairman of the board of directors. Lowe, well-known in the local arts community after co-chairing a $60 million capital campaign at the J.B. Speed Art Museum, will take on the role as part of his on-going commitment to arts organizations. He also serves as treasurer of the National Assembly of States Arts Agencies and sits on the Steering Committee for the Greater Louisville Arts Master Plan.

“I think a great art school is an anchor point for arts in the city,” said Lowe, noting that a vibrant arts community builds on itself. “You have creative young minds coming here to learn.

Once they’re here and experience the vibrant Louisville art community, they stay and make their own contributions to our

PRAIRIE FARMS DONATES MILK TO FOOD BANKS Prairie Farms celebrated June Dairy Month by donating 14,500 gallons of milk – 232,000 servings – to 29 food banks across the Midwest including 500 gallons to Dare to Care Food Bank in Louisville and another donation to God’s Food Pantry in Lexington. Prairie Farms delivered the milk to the Food Bank on Tuesday, June 14. The donations will help thousands of children and families receive all the nutrients provided in milk. Milk is one of the most requested items at Food Banks but is rarely donated. As of now, current milk donations can only cover one gallon of milk per family, per year.

National Leadership and Skills Conference to save lives at risk of waterborne disease. Thousands of students traveled to Louisville for the conference the week of June 21 and were asked to bring used athletic shoes to donate to WaterStep, an organization that collects and sells the gently used shoes to fund water projects in communities around the world.

WaterStep's large shoe collection boxes were placed at the SkillsUSA registration area in the North Wing of the Kentucky Fair & Exposition Center, where over 6,000 students from around the country passed through to attend the conference June 21-24.

WaterStep's shoe program not only generates funds for the organization but it also provides affordable footwear to people in the developing world and keeps the discarded shoes from going into landfills.

PRESENTATION ACADEMY ANNOUNCES RECIPIENTS OF THE 2016 TOWER AWARDS

FAMOUS VAN EYCK PAINTING COMES TO THE SPEED ART MUSEUM

Presentation Academy will honor the recipients of its 2016 Tower Awards during its annual awards dinner on Thursday, October 13, 2016, in the ballroom of the Louisville Marriott Downtown, 280 W. Jefferson St. The evening begins with a cocktail reception at 6 p.m., followed by a dinner and awards ceremony at 7 p.m.

The Speed Art Museum is thrilled to unveil a special surprise loan to the Museum. Jan van Eyck’s “Virgin and Child with Saints and Donor” (1441-43) is on exclusive loan to the Speed through early September from the Frick Collection in New York.

Now in its 21st year, the Tower Awards is an annual missiondriven event honoring women leaders in their fields and highlighting the contributions and talents of these role models to Presentation Academy students and the Kentuckiana community.

The van Eyck was unveiled for public viewing on Tuesday, June 21 at the Speed Art Museum. Following a teaser campaign on Snapchat (username: speedartmuseum) and other in-museum hints, the painting is now displayed in Gallery 14 at the entrance to the European and American permanent collection galleries.

The Tower Awards serves as a catalyst to open the doors for all young women to experience a Presentation Academy education. This is accomplished by applying all the funds from this event to the school's tuition assistance program. Since inception, this event has raised over $2 million.

The Speed Museum recently lent Anthony van Dyck’s “Portrait of a Woman” (1640) to the Frick Collection for their groundbreaking exhibition, “Van Dyck: The Anatomy of Portraiture.” The Speed’s painting was considered to be a highlight of that show. In return, the Frick Collection is sharing their van Eyck with the Speed Art Museum.

Presentation is pleased to announce the 2016 Tower Award recipients in the following categories:

Kelsi Worrell Looks to the Olympics

A

t the end of an athletic season in which multiple UofL sports teams were forced to deal with some awfully low lows, Kelsi Worrell is in the midst of experiencing one of the highest highs a Cardinal athlete has ever achieved.

MIKE RUTHERFORD @cardchronicle

In front of a national television audience on NBC Monday night, Worrell became the first American swimmer from UofL ever to qualify for the Olympic Games by dominating her competition in the 100-fly.

The fact that Worrell swam the second fastest 100-fly in the world and bested the 2012 gold medalist in the event, Dana Vollmer, in the finals would indicate that the 21-year-old UofL product is now one of the favorites to bring home the gold medal from Rio. “I wasn’t expecting to touch first,” Worrell admitted about her victory. “It was emotional hearing that and then seeing my time on the board. It’s a dream come true. This is what I’ve been training for all year long and what I’ve been dreaming about my entire life.”

Making the achievement even sweeter was the J U N E 3 0 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

fact that Worrell qualified for the Olympics in front of UofL swimming and diving Head Coach Arthur Albiero, who is serving as one of the coaches for the U.S. national team this summer. Albiero, who had previously helped coach five international Cardinal swimmers to the Olympics, said that getting an American swimmer from UofL to the sport’s biggest stage was the next major step for the program’s evolution.

“I keep hearing from people watching on television that UofL was getting a lot of love,” Albiero said. “I think it’s huge for our athletic department, huge for our program to show that we’re a world-class program. We’ve had a number of international Olympians, and this was the next step that was missing on our resume as a program to really create, not just manage, but create a U.S. Olympian. I think what Kelsi has been able to put together, obviously she’s got the talent, got the personality, and all the variables. All we tried to do was create an environment to be very successful.”

The trip to Rio will be the bow on top of what has been another massive year for Worrell, who will leave Louisville as the most decorated individual athlete in the history of Cardinal athletics.

Worrell kicked off 2015-16 by winning three

26

medals, including a gold in the 100-fly, at the 2015 Pan American Games. She then became a world record holder in the 400 short course meter medley relay thanks to her team’s performance at the 2015 Duel in the Pool in Indianapolis. Toss in a pair of NCAA championships, another year of All-American honors, an American record and becoming the first woman in history to swim the 100-yard butterfly in under 50 seconds, and yeah, you’ve got a nice little year.

World domination wasn’t always in the cards for Worrell. In the early years of her swimming career, Worrell struggled to control her asthma, making thoughts of one day qualifying for the Olympics seem far more fantasy than goal. It wasn’t until she arrived at UofL and worked with Albiero that she was able to make the adjustments necessary to control her attacks.

“When I came into college, I knew that I would need to be mentally tougher,” she said. “There are some days when I am weak and can’t control it, but I think those are the days that ultimately make me stronger. There’s no doubt in my mind that I wouldn’t be where I am right now if I hadn’t come to Louisville.”

Worrell has set records and made history consistently since arriving at UofL four years ago.

Now, there’s only one bullet point left to add to her vaunted resume: Olympic gold medalist. The city will be watching. VT P H OTO C O U R T E S Y O F U O F L S P O R T S I N F O R M AT I O N

Tyler Ulis Makes It

ost years, Kentucky fans have already exhausted their interest in the NBA draft by the time the second round comes along.

Catnip

Someone who plays with Ulis’ skills, intelligence and heart deserves a chance to make it in the NBA. Now, he’s got that chance. He hasn’t been dismissed out of hand because of concerns about his height or the condition of his hip.

He has been justifiably rewarded and given an opportunity to reunite with his bestie, Devin Booker. They never had a full chance to develop what they could do together when they were Phoenix gives them a second opportunity. And while there was never any concern a year ago about Booker’s height or physical condition, there was talk that he was a one-dimensional jump shooter who couldn’t put the ball on the floor or do any of those other things required for NBA success.

But, for me, the announcement at STEVE roughly 11:15 p.m. that “with the 34th pick in the 2016 draft, the Phoenix KAUFMAN Suns select Tyler Ulis of the University of Kentucky” was the highlight of the night. here. Now, Not entirely a surprise. You knew Ulis would go to Phoenix. The Suns already have Eric Bledsoe, Brandon Knight, Devin Booker and Archie Goodwin. A year ago, they also drafted Andrew Harrison. They collect UK guards like some people collect snow globes.

What I liked, though, was the acknowledgment that, despite all the attempts made at the ESPN table to break down foot speed, shooting mechanics and Jay Bilas’ obsessive wingspan, we’re talking about a basketball player, not RoboCop.

One hopes the doubters will be as wrong about Ulis this year as they were about Booker last year.

Of course, Phoenix isn’t going to keep all its UK snow globes. Most pro teams don’t carry all those guards, no matter what school they attended. Bledsoe and Knight are redundant – both outstanding

point guards who can score but are best with the ball in their hands. It was too expensive a backcourt even before Booker showed up.

Goodwin, it would seem, will spend whatever pro career he has fighting for a place on some team’s roster. But Ulis is a worthwhile option for Phoenix, as long as his health really isn’t an issue, because he’s, at worst, a terrific role player who won’t cost them a lot of money. And his chemistry with Booker is nonpareil, which is important now that Booker has emerged as a player that the Suns want to keep happy.

Phoenix will have to work it all out, though, because they’ll need space a year from now for De’Aaron Fox, Malik Monk and Isaiah Briscoe.

Earlier in the night, Jamal Murray went a lower-than-expected seventh, to Denver, while Jayson Williams on ESPN spent an inordinate amount of time pointing out Murray’s defensive liabilities. When players shoot like Murray shoots, pro scouts tend to evaluate their defense with the same emphasis as they evaluate their penmanship. (“We can teach…”)

And Skal Labissiere slipped all the way to near the very end of the first round. But he did make it, which I think means a guaranteed contract. Phoenix made the selection (maybe they’re obligated to scoop up every spare UK crumb), though the Suns then traded him to Sacramento (DeMarcus Cousins, Rajon Rondo, Willie Cauley-Stein), another franchise starting a UK bobblehead collection.

Skal’s fall was precipitous. He’d come to Kentucky with the prospect of being perhaps the No. 1 pick. But even after his disappointing season – and I was one who thought he should come back for his sophomore year – many draft experts were placing him in the top 15, just because of his height, his potential and his ability to shoot.

Among the things those experts failed to anticipate was the growing presence of European players in the NBA picture. Several of them were chosen in the first round, nearly every one bulky and broad-shouldered, with strong rebounding hands and nice post moves.

Also, apparently, their NBA teams don’t have to keep them – or pay them – right away. They can “stash” them back in Europe for a season or two.

“Stash” became the word of the night, even more so than “wingspan.”

However, as with Ulis, I was delighted with Skal’s selection. I’d always been concerned about the mysterious presence who apparently controls his life and career – a shadowy figure named Gerald Hamilton – but to see this terrific kid’s joy and gratitude after all he’d been through made those concerns fade, if only for the night.

Checking in With Peyton Siva Peyton Siva was back in Louisville last week to host the Camp of Champions at Louisville Collegiate School with former UofL teammate Russ Smith and current Boston Celtics guard Terry Rozier. Siva played one season in the NBA after helping lead the Cards to the 2013 National Championship. He was drafted 56th overall in the 2013 NBA draft and played the 2013-14 season with the Detroit Pistons. Last season, he played in Italy and will head to Germany this year. Siva signed with ALBA Berlin of the German Basketball Bundesliga.

What do you enjoy about the camp?

It’s great to be with the kids. We have a lot of kids who came out, and Terry came out this year along with me and Russ. It’s just fun. It’s fun to get out there and have fun with these guys.

What do you try to get across to the kids?

happens. You just have to make the best out of your situation.

Where are you playing now?

Taylor’s 10 KENT TAYLOR WAVE3 Sports

My main focus for the kids is to just have fun.

Basketball is a fun game. You just have to enjoy it. A lot of kids get frustrated and everything, but my whole point to them is to just enjoy basketball. It can take you a long way.

The draft was last week. What are the emotions that you felt around draft time in 2013?

You hear where you could be drafted, where you’re going to play. You just have to trust the process, trust in God and whatever happens J U N E 3 0 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

I played last year in Italy, and this year, I just signed with Germany.

Looking forward to going to Berlin.

What do you enjoy about playing overseas?

It gives me a chance to experience the world and continue to play basketball – continue to do something I love.

Where in Italy were you?

I was in Caserta, Italy.

Which is close to what major cities?

It’s near Naples and Rome. So I got a chance to see those cities and the Amalfi Coast. I had a great time.

28

Do you get a chance to travel much?

It’s amazing. My family gets a chance to go with me. We take our daughter with us, and she gets to see the world. I can’t complain. I’m getting paid to do what I love, and I don’t feel like I’ve worked a day in my life.

What kind of NBA player will Chinanu Onuaku be?

I just think he’s going to be a good defender and a good team player. From what I hear and what I saw a little bit of, he’s a good shot blocker, a good rebounder.

How important is passing for a big man in the NBA today?

Very important because a lot of teams are playing through their bigs, a lot of cutters. You see that with Golden State and even Cleveland – they used their bigs to pass the ball, and the NBA is all about cutting and moving without the ball. VT PHOTO BY RANDY WHETSTONE JR.

Basketball Campers Become Champions

E

ach summer, Kendall Rensenbrink travels 11 hours and 16 minutes (approximately 765.4 miles) from Milaca, Minnesota to Louisville to be a part of the Camp of Champions. There is nothing else more important on this 16-year-old’s summer break than to get the chance to be in close proximity to her greatest basketball inspiration, Russ Smith.

High School Sports Report

RANDY WHETSTONE JR.

“I am a huge fan of his,” says Rensenbrink. “He not only changes my perspective on the game of basketball, but his love for basketball has affected me and how I live my everyday life. He was going through a lot with the NBA, so I take from that that things aren’t easy and you have to work hard. I do that when I play basketball, when I run track and when I just live my everyday life.”

This was Kendall’s third visit to the annual Camp of Champions basketball clinic, instructed by former UofL players Russ Smith and Peyton Siva. June 21-23, kids ages 6-10 and 11-16 gathered from all around to better their basketball skills.

This year brought some new flavor. Former Card Terry Rozier, who now plays for the Boston Celtics, was the special addition to the summer camp.

Tim Barnett, who has built a solid rapport with UofL players over the years, has been the cornerstone to Camp of Champions being a success.

His vision was to provide an opportunity that the city hasn’t had.

For Smith, he doesn’t take it for granted being able to touch the life of someone like Kendall.

When he was a teenager, he attended former NBA guard Stephon Marbury’s basketball camp, and it played an integral part in his becoming the player he is today.

When kids walk away from the threeday camp, they’ve built a relationship with UofL players whom they’ve adored over the years and become one step closer to being champions both on and off the court.

“It means a lot,” asserts Smith. “It will mean more to them down the road than it does at this moment. They get used to playing against different people, different styles of basketball. They’re growing, and the most important thing to do is to play ball.

“We want them to use this game and not let the game use them,” Barnett says.

“Use this game to communicate, use this game to help you be a good teammate, use this game to help you understand how to work with others and use this game to help you with punctuality – being at practice on time – and accountability.

There are so many life skills that you can learn during games, so we feel like if they learn that, they have the ability to learn something special.”

It also means a lot to Smith and Siva to be able to give back to a community that gave so much love and support to them.

Russ Smith with camper Kendall Rensenbrink.

“My main message for the kids is to have fun and enjoy the game,” Siva relates. “At the end of the day, it is just a game, but it is a game that can take you a long way. For me, I want them to have fun and enjoy life. Life is bigger than basketball, but it is a fun game to play. I tell the kids to not take it so seriously as far as pouting and crying but rather to just have fun with it.”

29

“We are helping them with ball handling, triple threat and moving without the ball – all the normal stuff and also being aggressive. I teach that to the guys to be aggressive and always have confidence.”

And while every young camper’s dream is to one day be like Stephen Curry and shoot nearly half-court jump shots, Smith looks back on his own NBA journey and reminds them that to turn that dream into a reality, they must put in the hard work.

“There were times I was in the gym and just in there to stay competitive, and I was working hard,” he recounts. “Then I ended up making it, and it is just really cool.”

It’s just as cool for Kendall to see one of her idols each summer. She didn’t get the chance to participate athletically this year due to an injury, but she says when she goes back to Minnesota, she will still have a lot to share with friends and family.

“The mentality of the game of basketball is what I learned,” she describes. “When you’re younger, you never know how mentally tough you actually need to be to play. I struggled with that by not being able to play and coming here, but I learned how to be mentally tough. That’s what I will take back with me.” VT V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

Derby and Oaks hopes of 2017 – emerge in those final races after prepping for debuts in the meet’s early weeks.

Acknowledging that some memorable efforts are likely during the meet’s final three days – especially in the stakes races for 2-year-olds, the Grade III Bashford Manor and the Debutante, on the meet’s closing night – here’s a look at some of the highlights as the 2016 Spring Meet nears its conclusion.

Top Jockey: A dominant meet-long performance by Corey Lanerie will provide him with an 11th leading jockey title in the track’s last 12 meets.

The Louisiana native has worked hard, ridden more horses than any other member of the strong Churchill Downs riding colony and held a 51-38 lead over Julien Leparoux in total wins with three

days remaining in the Spring Meet. It’s sometimes easy to overlook Lanerie’s everyday excellence, but he has dominated the spring of 2016 at Churchill Downs. Lanerie deserves a special nod for turning back a talented group of contemporaries, several of whom stepped up the pressure by recording their best meet-long performances in years.

Honorable mention: Leparoux was strong from Opening Night on and deserves special congratulations for traveling to England’s famed Royal Ascot Meet to guide Tepin to a historic triumph in the Group One Queen Anne Stakes. A resurgent Robby Albarado, Brian Hernandez Jr. and rising star Florent Geroux made up a strong top five in the jockeys room that was as deep in talent as it has been in years.

Missed: Three-time Kentucky Derby-winner Calvin Borel, the folk hero who retired suddenly prior to the meet. We have not been able to say goodbye to Calvin, and here’s hoping that one day, we’ll be able to offer a proper farewell and tell him how much fans appreciated his work here through the years.

Top Trainer: Mike Maker and Mark Casse are tied at 18 wins heading into the meet’s final three days, but Casse gets the nod as the meet’s top trainer regardless of which barn finishes on top. Under the guidance of Norman Casse, the trainer’s son and top assistant, the Casse barn has been a study in sustained excellence since Derby Week. The stable showcased international star Tepin on Derby Day in a second consecutive Churchill Downs Distaff Turf Mile (Grade II) win and won the Grade III Edgewood on grass with Catch A Glimpse, its next female grass superstar who went on to beat 3-year-old males in her next outing. All the while, the Casse team has rolled out one promising runner after another during the meet while winning more than 30 percent of its races and finishing in-the-money with nearly 60 percent of its starters.

Special Mention: The top streak by any of the human participants in the Spring Meet is last week’s string of five consecutive victories by horses trained by veteran Mike Tomlinson. Those who had the faith to follow Tomlinson were rewarded handsomely at the window as the string included a three-win Twilight Thursday on June 23 with Jersey Street ($13.40), Scatnap ($10.40) and For Goodness Sake ($7), followed by Leonardo Da Vinci ($10.20) the following day and stable favorite Greengrassofwyoming ($12.20) on Sunday. Tomlinson will attempt to extend his local string of wins with a pair of starters on Friday, July 1.

Owners Ken and Sarah Ramsey are in good shape to collect their unprecedented 26th leading owner title at Churchill Downs as their spring victory total stands at 12 – a five-win edge over their nearest competitor – with three days of racing to go.

But a special nod goes to the ownership team of trainer William “Buff ” Bradley and Carl Hurst, PHOTO COURTESY OF CHURCHILL DOWNS

The father-son team of trainer Mark Casse (right) and son and assistant trainer Norman Casse gets John Asher’s nod as top trainer of the 2016 Spring Meet.

whose horses were 4-0-1 in six races heading into the meet’s final week. Two of those wins were provided by The Player, a 3-year-old son of Street Hero that was bred by the duo in partnership with the late Fred Bradley, the trainer’s father who died on May 20 at the age of 85.

Along with his work as an owner and breeder, Fred Bradley was an Air Force veteran who later served as an attorney and in elected offices that included a run as a respected member of the Kentucky Senate.

many people who are pulling for that 3-year-old colt to emerge as something special.

Next week, we’ll take look at memorable equine performances and rising 2-year-old stars that emerged during the 38 days of spring racing at Churchill Downs. VT

Fred Bradley’s accomplishments were significant and wide-ranging, but among his personal highlights was the breeding of champion Groupie Doll, a Breeders’ Cup-winner, and $2 million earner and Grade I-winner Brass Hat on his Indian Ridge Farm in Frankfort.

The Player has the looks of a horse with a significant future.

Regardless of what happens in the final three days of racing in the Spring Meet at Churchill Downs, the promise displayed by the colt will endure as tribute to the life and work of Fred Bradley. There are

THE KENTUCKY from POSTCARD BOOKS The One Room Schoolhouse

‘Postcards from Abe’, 2016 - These postcards from Abraham Lincoln, written to his friend Joshua Speed's mother, Lucy Speed, at Farmington Plantation in Louisville, Kentucky, are just pretend. But despite the fact that this fun and educational book may not contain true artifacts, Postcards from Abe provides an honest recollection of Lincoln's childhood, challenges, and career, culminating in his being elected to serve as the 16th president of the United States of America.

This collection, which is the fourth in a series of historical postcard books created by award-winning Kentucky educator Betty Southard Stokes, is a perfect way to teach history to children in a fun, imaginative way.

‘Postcards from William’, 2006 –This is a story of endurance. In the men’s journals, they continually wrote... “we proceeded on”... The men of the Lewis & Clark Expedition traveled over 8,000 mile round trip. They fought uphill currents and freezing temperatures, portaged heavy equipment, went without food days at a time and put their lives in danger each day, but they proceeded on, till the mission was accomplished.

‘Postcards from Daniel’, 2014 – In this third book in Betty Southard Stokes’ postcard series, Daniel Boone is writing from the Kentucky wilderness to his mother in North Carolina. Daniel tells of saving his daughter and her friends from kidnapping by a band of Indians, his own capture and numerous escapes, a fearful attack on Fort Boonesboro by Shawnee Indians and the British Army, and the painful loss of his son at the Battle of Blue Licks.

‘Postcards from George’, 2010 - These postcards from General George Rogers Clark to his brothers, Edmund and William Clark, plus his sister, Lucy are just pretend. Postcards were not on the market during George Rogers Clark's lifetime. They did not appear until 1851, after George, Edmund, Lucy and William had passed away. But these give great insight into the hardship and rewards of Clark’s great expedition west of Kentucky to capture three British forts during the American Revolutionary War.

“Postcards from Abe” makes Abraham Lincoln accessible to young learners. Historically accurate, the postcards humanize Lincoln as a child himself and as a young person facing the challenges of life -- just like other children of his age, and all ages. These postcards from Lincoln to his friend Joshua Speed’s mother, Lucy, chronicle the story of Lincoln’s life from his Kentucky roots, to his life growing up in Indiana, to his move to Illinois and his move again to Washington and national prominence. Pulling no punches on the “hard” issues of Lincoln’s life from the death of his mother to his struggle for self-education to his mature struggles with the Civil War and the problem of slavery, Betty Southard Stokes’ writing carries the human story along while Emry Quinn’s illustrations support and enrich the text. Postcards from Abe is a much welcomed addition to the young adult literature on Abraham Lincoln.”

— Dr. Thomas Mackey, University of Louisville history professor and Lincoln Scholar

One of the Louisville Zoo’s missions is to provide leadership in conservation education, and they do so by subtly presenting it to guests and patrons as soon as they walk through the gate. The Zoo is divided into native animal regions, and within that region, the animals are further organized to educate on the relationship between predator and prey, which is why the polar bears are kept near the seals and sea lions.

With this layout in mind, I began with the new camel ride attraction. I have fond memories of riding horses on my dad’s farm as a

J U N E 3 0 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

to imagine why camels are used for long journeys through the desert. Camel rides cost $6 for non-members and $5 for members if you or your children want to experience a ride for yourselves.

Next, I attended some of the Zoo’s informative animal presentations. I met two female elephants, one African and one Indian. Just in case you’ve forgotten some of those biology classes from your grade school days, here’s a fun animal fact: The main way to tell the difference between the two varieties of elephant is by looking at the ears. African elephants have bigger ears that roughly resemble Africa, while Indi-

I additionally got to see a presentation of the maned wolves of South America as well as one of the seals and sea lions from Earth’s coldest regions. Resembling large foxes, maned wolves do not hunt in packs. They are solitary – even a little skittish – and love fruit just as much as meat. When I next saw the seal and sea lions, I realized that I had never seen them in person before. These adorable creatures are sure to win your heart, and since their presentation is by the water, it can serve as a nice opportunity to cool off if things get too hot this summer.

Near the seals and sea lions are the Zoo’s newest fixture: little penguins. Also called blue or fairy penguins, these little guys are the world’s smallest species of penguin and are known for their unusual cerulean coloring. Like most penguins, they are irresistibly cute, and they enjoy showing off their swimming skills to the visitors.

Another fascinating tidbit is that they from hail Australia, so unlike their brethren in the poles, these guys are warm-weather penguins. They’re sure to be a success for the Zoo. While walking from attraction to attraction, I of course couldn’t help but notice the astounding amount of animals that populate the Zoo. I saw a newborn addix that had entered the world a mere few days before. I saw the Zoo’s world-famous Gorilla Forest where the remind-

er that humans and gorillas are more alike than we are different was on full display. I saw giraffes, lions, rhinos, orangutans and the elusive snow leopard. I even attended a live bird show by Joe Krathwohl, internationally renowned as “The Birdman.” During his freeflight show, “Wings of the World,” I saw such exotic avians as an Andean condor, an African crowned crane, a bateleur eagle, a red-breasted cockatoo and a double-wattled cassowary. The show only opened this past May, so make sure you take in this new attraction.

What’s truly remarkable is that I could continue to write on and on about the fun and activities that the Zoo offers. In addition to the animals, there are also rope adventure courses, an informative tram tour and a historic carousel. It’s also worth repeating that there are countless ways to beat the heat like cold and tasty treats, water mists and indoor air-conditioned animal displays. Whether going for the first time or going back to try out some of the new activities, the Louisville Zoo is an ideal destination for you and your family to learn about the rich and diverse life on this planet. VT The Louisville Zoo is located at 1100 Trevilian Way, Louisville, KY 40213. Admission is $16.25 for adults and is $11.75 for children ages 3-11 and seniors age 60+. Parking is $5 per vehicle.

THE TRICK TO A Healthy Hound

K

eeping your dog’s diet healthy during the summer can be a difficult task. After a long, hot summer day, it can be tempting to just throw some kibble into a dish and let your dog dine on dry food alone. Louisville’s Karla Haas understands – and wants to share some of her expert tips on keeping your pup healthy and happy throughout the summer heat.

Tastes GRAHAM PILOTTE

When her dog Rudy Green was struck with a bleeding ulcer, dog mom Haas started to cook special foods to help him heal. She quickly realized how much healthier and happier Rudy was, so she started Rudy Green’s Doggy Cuisine to share her expertise and natural dog snacks with the rest of the dog-loving community. And after you heed a few of her tips, your pup will almost certainly want to give you a round of “appaws.”

ADD VARIETY “Cooking a full meal for your dog can often be cost-prohibitive and too time-conJ U N E 3 0 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

suming,” Haas asserts. However, she suggests that just adding a few bites of your dinner to your dog’s kibble regimen can go a long way. “If you and I ate nothing but tofu, oatmeal and broccoli every day, we’d be missing something,” she compares.

“So if you’re grilling chicken breasts, steaming rice or steaming vegetables, add a few pieces to your dog’s dish,” she suggests. Just be sure to avoid heavy seasonings, fats and foods like onions or raisins – lean meats, most vegetables and grains are great for your pup to eat.

Haas also notes that just like us, dogs have a personal sense of taste, so they’ll love some foods and reject others. The next time you’re cooking your favorite meal, give your dog a piece, as long as it’s safe, and see if it might be his favorite too!

Rudy Green’s Doggy Cuisine makes gently cooked “human food made for dogs.” It’s the only pet food company in the country that makes human-edible food in a USDA and FDA monitored facility – that means that by law, a human can eat Rudy Green’s too. Haas suggests adding Rudy Green’s products as a topping to your dog’s dish, or saving them for a special treat.

DON’T FORGET TO FETCH! Haas finally notes that it’s important to get your dog outside and moving. Even older dogs need to get outside at least once a day for a short walk. Just watch out for the heat since your dog’s pads can burn on the hot pavement, and be sure to give your dog lots of fresh, clean water. Fresh water is important for both humans and dogs in the same way fresh food is, so be sure to refill your pooch’s water dish if it’s full of leaves or has been sitting out for a while.

Haas remarks that “dogs’ lives are much shorter than ours, so everything in their environment affects them much more intensely – everything they consume and everything to which they are exposed.” So every daily walk, filled water bowl and bite of fresh food means that much more to your dog.

“After all,” Haas says, “we’re talking dog years here!”

USE REAL “HUMAN” FOODS Haas knows that most dogs live off kibble but also that dry food is typically processed and cooked at 600 degrees. “Basically, you’re giving them cardboard,” Haas contends. The oil covering your dog’s kibble is really where the flavor and nutrients come from, and many dogs don’t absorb those artificial nutrients well.

And your dog will surely thank you for following Haas’ tips. To keep your pup healthy and happy, nutrition is key. Just like us, they’re responsive to good nutrition and lifestyle choices. Haas reminds us that “they can’t make the choices, but we can – and the response that you can see in them is amazing, not only in their health but in their joy as well.”

This summer is the perfect time to add a little variety and some real “human” food into your dog’s diet. With Rudy Green’s on your side, keeping your pup healthy and happy isn’t far-fetched at all. VT V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • J U N E 3 0 , 2 0 1 6

like the aforementioned leans meats, veggies and grains – can help your dog to get the vitamins and minerals he needs to stay healthy and happy. “You wouldn’t feed your kid a Cheerio meal every day of their life,” says Haas, “so why would you feed your furry kid on cardboard nuggets?” Just like for humans, chemical preservatives and intense food processing techniques aren’t terrific for dogs, so adding in some meat that hasn’t been heated to 600 degrees can really make dinnertime a happy occasion for your pup.

Windows treatments, however, do not have to be for an entire home. Yates says it is never an all-or-nothing situation, and while custom window treatments may cost more than those you can pick up at a department store, Draped in Style will

always work with your budget. And once it’s all complete, Yates insists, “It’s like the jewelry on a woman after she puts on a beautiful gown. It just completes the room.”

Even if your budget only allows say, treatments in one room, Yates and her colleagues will still look beyond that one room when they make a house visit. Doing so allows them to offer suggestions for the other rooms that will not be getting new treatments.

“Sometimes, a customer will have a very dated treatment up and I’ll say, ‘You know what, we can’t spend any money right here, but I think just taking that down is going to be better because it will allow you to have a cleaner look,” Yates says.

“So if we’ve got something that’s maybe very floral or dated that just doesn’t fit the space anymore, sometimes not having anything is better than having something.”

One other inexpensive fix Yates recommends is installing a typical 2-inch Burwood blind that V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • J U N E 3 0 , 2 0 1 6

nicely updates existing Venetian miniblinds.

Beyond aesthetics, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, window treatments that feature highly reflective blinds when completely closed and lowered on a sunny window can reduce heat gain by around 45 percent.

Additionally, window shutters can help reduce heat gain and loss in your home, and louvered shutters work best for summer shading. Movable or fixed louvers allow ventilation and natural daylight to enter a room while blocking some direct radiation. Solid shutters will decrease both heat loss and summer heat gain.

Draped in Style offers energy-saving shades from Hunter Douglas called Duette Architella, which are ideal for homes with older windows. “Its primary purpose is to regulate the temperature,” Yates explains. “It essentially doubles the R-value of what a double-pane window has.”

This line is called a cellular shade because its shape traps air in distinct pockets to help keep your house cool in the summer and warm in the winter. If statistics are accurate and up to 50 percent of a home’s heating and cooling energy can be lost

through its windows, these shades might help you lower your LG&E bill significantly.

Meanwhile, Draped in Style also sells motorized shading systems that can be operated by remote control, switches, batteries or timers.

These treatments are ideal for hard-to-reach windows, skylights and windows where cords are unsightly or not safe for children or pets, or homes where owners travel frequently. In that case, shades can be put on a timer. Yates says these are great for both privacy and temperature control but also they “allow the draperies, the cornice or the top treatment to really be showcased because you don’t have something in the window distracting from it.”

Without question, this mother-daughter team has used their personal touch and extensive design knowledge to make the company the success it is today. “We are always going to conferences and seminars and always keeping up on what is the newest thing, so we are very educated,” Yates says.

That expertise is one reason they have been in business for over a decade. Another reason is the rapport they’ve developed with their customers.

“I think the reason why people like us and refer their friends and family to our company is because we are family-owned,” Yates attests.

“We’re real people, and we’re very warm. We always make people feel so comfortable with the process. They are spending their hard-earned money and we respect that and know that, so I think just the pride and customer service is the best quality we possess.”

Whether you are shopping for a single window treatment or redecorating your entire house, Draped in Style provides a team of designers and installers that coordinates your entire window

treatment project. They factor in not just how the decor looks but how it functions. On their website, they invite prospective customers to stop in their store and discuss their project over a cup of coffee.

Think of it as a friendly chat around the Crouch breakfast table.

For all of your window needs this summer and beyond, Draped in Style will have your projects made in the shade. VT

Disney’s been doing this in a lot of their so-called live-action films lately, but Spielberg has a better grasp on keeping the simulated content and filmed content on the same page.

ries, he never previously considered erby City Playwrights, playwriting as an option: “I went or DCP, is the brainto college to be an English major, child of Louisville and because I liked acting, I thought natives Brian Walker and maybe a theatre minor. Instead, I became enamored with theatre and David Clark. Originally studybecame a double major, and after ing to be an actor, it was WalkArts & never getting an opportunity to take er’s dream to move to L.A.

It seems that this confidence was well-founded. Not only were his plays met with critical success locally, nationally and internationally, but Walker’s work enabled him to obtain a coveted season-long residency at the Nashville Repertory Theatre during its 2012-13 season.

“It nourished and developed my craft in a way that had never happened before,” asserts Walker. “It made me realize what we were missing in Louisville, what I was missing in my own hometown, so I decided to do something about it.”

Up until college, Clark had planned on writing novels. From a young age, Clark was fascinated with putting amusing and thought-provoking tales to paper, but despite not being able to recall a time when he didn’t act out those sto-

The sparks that were eventually fanned into the flame that became Derby City Playwrights began on a fateful trip traveling back from the Last Frontier Theatre Conference in Anchorage, Alaska. Walker and Clark had made the trip together, and their resulting conversation covered the topic of theatre in Louisville, specifically playwriting.

This conversation incited an initial brainstorming session when they returned home, which led to the creation of the first season of DCP. The idea was simple: Local playwrights would have a safe but driven environment to present their work, and after a year of monthly private readings and constructive criticism within the group, each member would have a new play and staged reading to add to their credits.

This first year was undeniably ambitious and just as successful. Plays developed during last year’s group went on to win the Kentucky Theatre Association 2015 Roots of the Bluegrass New Play Contest and the 2016 Southeastern Theatre Conference Getchell New Play Award.

Nonetheless, Walker and Clark mutually agreed that it was time to take it up a notch for season two and turn the group’s goals to a production-based format.

Season one saw 12 playwrights, but season two narrowed the focus and the parameters for acceptance into the group considerably, resulting in the eventual creation of only six plays. These new plays will be presented as completely produced works in a festival at The Bard’s Town Theatre beginning July 7. “[Bard’s Town co-owner] Doug Schutte and The Bard’s Town have been fantastic,” says Walker. “As soon as I presented the idea to him last year, he not only wanted to give us a home to do it but wanted to co-produce it.

He’s been a true champion for what we are doing, and without his support, this thing wouldn’t be possible.”

This year’s crop of DCP plays is a fun and varied group, according to Clark: “We have a darkly comic romance featuring a scientist in need of skulls. We have siblings driving a stolen octopus across the country. We have teenagers becoming adults at the neighborhood bus stop. We have a ghost trying to find her way to the other side. We have stoners making art in a brownstone. And we have a hacker convention filled with corporate espionage, dangerous tech and trolls.” If there are any fears of overextension and loss of focus, Clark expertly assuages them: “And as vastly different these plays are in style and subject, they all share a theme of collapse. It is a fun festival, but I think all of these shows will leave you with something to talk about after they are over.”

And that is the ultimate goal of DCP. Taking the non-traditional and seemingly disconnected and connecting them. Walker and Clark have ambition, but they will never forget why they created the group in the first place. Clark sums it up best: “I feel like DCP has begun to carve its own unique place in the theatre world. But more importantly, I hope it’s starting to carve its own unique – and necessary – place in Louisville.” VT The Derby City Playwrights New Play Festival runs July 7-24 at The Bard’s Town Theatre at 1801 Bardstown Road.

SPEED CINEMA PRESENTS: “PRIVATE PROPERTY” A major rediscovery for film noir and crime fans, “Private Property” was lost until the UCLA Film & Television Archive located the only known 35mm elements for this 4K restoration. Due to the film’s taboo subject matter (seduction, rape and latent homosexuality), it was condemned by the National Catholic Legion of Decency and denied a Production Code Administration code seal. In the film, two homicidal drifters (Louisville native Warren Oates and Corey Allen) wander off the beach and into the picture-perfect Beverly Hills home of an affluent housewife. Bored and ignored by her husband, she’s playing with fire as she is intrigued and repulsed by the menacing interlopers. A mixture of a Hitchcock-like thriller and an indictment of the American Dream, the film is an

pets of the week Meet Clarabelle, an 8-year-old cattle dog mix that came to the Kentucky Humane Society because she was afraid of the small children in her previous home. This sweet old girl loves to just hang out, so all the activity caused her stress. While Clarabelle is laid-back, she does enjoy going outside for walks and being able to go at her own pace. She also loves nothing more than to lay at your feet and get attention. Clarabelle is already spayed, microchipped and up-to-date on vaccinations. Clarabelle is waiting for you at the adoption center in the Pewee Valley Feeders Supply, 12406 La Grange Road.

Gotham is a 2-year-old loving but shy domestic medium hair mix. He is cautious around strangers, but once he warms up to you, he likes to play and get pets. Gotham was surrendered because he found young children in his home too stressful, so we believe he would do best without small children in the home. Gotham will require a little bit of time to warm up to you, but once he does, you won’t be disappointed. He promises to be a love bug and rest by your side.

He’s neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on vaccinations. Come meet him today at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive in Louisville.

For more on any of our adoptable pets, please call 502.366.3355 or visit kyhumane.org
