ill Seng has been fighting fires long before it was his actual job.

After first becoming a volunteer firefighter in 1978 he’s certainly come a long way, now as the Chief of the St. Matthews Fire Department since 1992, but he still recalls those early days when things weren’t as easy.

“I volunteered back in the days where firefighters responded from home,” he says.

“They wore pagers. Pagers just first came out around that time that you wore on your hip.

They would dispatch you, and you would respond from your house to the firehouse. It was totally volunteer. There were no career firefighters at that time. You basically get on the truck and respond to the scene.”

Seng commands a large operation and one that has steadily grown over the years. From the days of the volunteer to the introduction of career firefighting, the St. Matthews Fire Department has come a long way. Even as recently as last year the department expanded yet again in an effort to find ways to improve efficiency and range of service.

“We merged with the Lyndon Fire District last year,” Seng says. “Because they had the need for EMS out there also. We already had the capabilities to do that. They came to us and said, could they merge with us, bring in all their operation under our command staff and what have you. That July 1 of ‘18, we merged with Lyndon. They operate in two firehouses in their district. Now, the St. Matthew’s fire district has four stations fully staffed and there’s an ambulance operating out of each one of those stations. Now, we’re up to four ambulances.”

As to how the stations operate, Seng explains.

“There’s a fire company in each one of the stations,” Sent says. “Back before we merged, we only had the two, so there is one company in each station. They’re staffed with four people on it and on a company.

Out of those trucks or “apparatus” as we call them, there’s four guys assigned to it.”

Unlike the majority of other jobs, firefighters work much different schedules.

StMatthewsMag.com / JUNE 2019 / ST. MATTHEWS MAGAZINE / 7

It might seem like strange hours but it works, Seng says.

“You need three platoons to cover all three days until the first platoon comes back on,” he adds. “One engine company has four on 24 hours a day. For the next day, you need another four and then the next day, you need another four. There’s 12 firefighters assigned to each station — 12 here, 12 at station two, 12 at station three and 12 at station four, in total. There’s only four at each station every day.”

“Now, firefighters typically work a 24/48,” Seng says. “They only work every third day.

The one crew comes on they work 24 hours.

They’re off for 48. They don’t come back again until that third day.”

But besides increasing the jurisdiction and firepower of the St. Matthews’ Fire Department, the recent expansions are absolutely necessary, according to the chief. He cites that the amount of the aforementioned “runs” the department makes is thirtyfold the amount it did when Seng first came aboard more than 40 years ago.

“When I first came up here in ‘78, we were making about 300 runs a year,” he

says. “Let’s just say one a day. Today, we’re averaging about 30 dispatches a day, which includes EMS. We’re going out the door 30 times a day. Most of those are medical but those significant fires are down.”

Which is a point that is generally contradictory to what one thinks a fire department does. Seng says the amount of “working fires” is tremendously low anymore and the majority of their job involves many other facets of civil service, which, he says, is obviously a good thing.

“We make a lot of car and dumpster fires,” Seng says. “But we don’t really classify those as working fires. The number of big incidences over the years are down. We make a whole lot more runs, both fire and EMS, from alarms soundings to a fireplace fire or something like that, but the big, significant, big burning fires. They’re fewer and far between, because technology is a lot better and building materials. There’s more fire conscientious building construction

going on, so those numbers are down.

We still make a significant amount of car accidents, but those are down as well, too, as far as a lot of injuries, because of the improvement of cars. They’re designed now to take a break or an impact or the airbags. The major injuries, it’s not like what they were many, many years ago.”

The department will be celebrating its 100-year anniversary this year which, according to Sam McCune, is no small feat. McCune, a 40-year veteran who retired as a captain in 2000 but who returned to work in 2007, believes it’s an achievement to be proud of. He recounts a bit of the department’s long history.

“A lot of the surrounding departments in the county that make up the fire districts, most of them started much later than we did,” he says.

While Seng is certainly not the first or last fire chief the St. Matthews Fire Department

has seen, he is the one responsible for overseeing the celebration of their 100th anniversary. There’s a lot of past here to be proud, decades of legacies and heroes to remember. So while there may not be any grand plans to draw attention to it Seng says there will certainly be activities that highlight this feat.

“Every year, we hold a rib cook-off contest for area firefighters who come up here on a Saturday, and we close the street off, and it’s a festive-type atmosphere where we just promote a camaraderie,” he says. “That’s what we plan on doing most of our push for the 100-year anniversary. It’s held in October. That’s where we plan on putting up advertising of the100th anniversary.”

THE EXTINCT BISON OF FLOYDS FORK Writer / Curtis Carman

The Parklands landscape is rich with plants and animals—more than 700 species have been identified. The diversity of life around Floyds Fork has taken millions of years to come about.

Oceans have come and gone, mountains were built up and torn down and organisms evolved and went extinct. Over the most recent millennia, changes have occurred much more quickly than would have otherwise, as humans came to dominate the world.

In eastern North America, Kentucky and The Parklands, there are a few missing pieces worth mentioning to better understand the unseen picture of the landscape. Some of these pieces have been gone for thousands of years, while others are on the brink today.

During earth’s last glacial period, the Pleistocene, megafauna such as mammoths roamed The Parklands and the Bluegrass Region. In fact, bones and skeletons of many species, including mammoths, mastodons, ground sloths and bison that once roamed through the mineral springs and swamps have been found at Big Bone Lick State Park in northern Kentucky. Today, we can still find clues on the landscape of their presence like Osage Orange and Honey Locust trees. The sharp thorns on these trees are adaptations to ward off hungry mammoths who liked to eat the Osage Oranges and Honey Locust seedpods. More than 20,000 years have now passed since their extinction and the landscape is distinctly different supporting other types of wildlife.

Like the extinct megafauna, the American bison migrated from one mineral spring to another. The many “licks” in Kentucky, from Big Bone Lick, to Bullitt’s Lick south of Louisville and Pope Lick along Floyds Fork, served as sources of essential minerals for the animals.

As the largest animal in the east (once the megafauna went extinct),

the bison roamed in herds of thousands of animals. Because the animals migrated intentionally to specific destinations (the licks), they wore huge paths through the forested and open country of the Ohio Valley.

These traces, hammered by the hoofs of countless animals, later became the travel routes for early American explorers and settlers.

Many of our modern highways follow the animals’ paths. Today, the bison is functionally extinct in the east. However, small fenced populations live at Big Bone Lick State Park and elsewhere.

The next time you roam The Parklands, stop to take in the rich history of the land among you. You might even spot some traces left behind from past species.

We appreciate your love of The Parklands and the role you play in the success of this donor-supported public park. A gift to The Parklands not only helps to maintain our parks today, but your continued support will positively shape the future of Louisville and truly benefit current and future generations through access to world-class parks. To donate, please visit theparklands.org/Member. 21st Century Parks is a 501c3 organization, and all gifts are tax-deductible.

the original stage has been replaced, and the houses on stage were torn down and reconstructed with metal, in hopes they will last longer than the previous wood structures.

Although the project has been overwhelming at times, “The Stephen Foster Story” staff, cast and crew, are thrilled to be carrying on the tradition.

“The outpouring of support we received from fans, cast, former cast, crew, the community in Bardstown in Kentucky and beyond is overwhelming,” Bass says. “We want to celebrate that and say thank you by putting on the best productions we can this summer.”

“The Stephen Foster Story,” one of the oldest and longest-running outdoor shows in America, follows the life of America’s

first great composer Stephen Collins Foster in the mid-19th century. The performance features more than 50 of Foster’s greatest compositions, including “Oh! Susanna,” “Camptown Races,” and Kentucky’s state song, “My Old Kentucky Home.”

The performance looks a little different from year to year, but the story remains the same. This year’s production will feature new actors in the lead roles of Stephen Foster and Jane McDowell.

“It’s intriguing to see how different actors portray these iconic roles,” Bass says. “If you haven’t seen the show in the last few years, come back and see it. It’s really rare to find a show that’s been running for 61 years.

We still have the same breathtaking costumes and song and dance numbers, but one of my favorite things about watching the show over the years is it does change.”

The cast members performed an abridged version of “The Stephen Foster Story” at the base of Mount Fuji that ended with “My Old Kentucky Home.”

“At least 75 percent of the audience was singing along with us at the end,” Bass says. “Music really is the universal language.”

“The Stephen Foster Story” is performed on select nights from June 8 through August 10. A special celebration will be held on Independence Day to celebrate

Foster’s birth on that day in 1826. The celebration includes pre-show contests like hula-hooping and watermelon eating.

Cupcakes are passed out to attendees at intermission, and the night is capped off with a fireworks show.

“The July 4 show is one of our favorite events,” Bass says. “Stephen Foster only lived until the age of 37, but even to this day, people know him as much as they know some of the most popular music on the radio.”

In addition to “The Stephen Foster Story,” the amphitheatre also hosts a Broadway-style show each summer, and this year marks the return of the Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber hit musical “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” The show was last performed at the amphitheatre in 2009, which was the first year at the helm for current Managing Artistic Director Johnny Warren.

“Bringing back the show is a cool way for things to come back around from when Warren first took over 10 years ago,” Bass says. “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” is one of his favorite productions, and helps us celebrate the decade he has spent directing.”

The amphitheatre also hosts a summer concert series, and this year’s highlights include tributes to boy bands (Boy Band Review, July 29) and Bon Jovi (The Music of Bon Jovi, September 6), as well as country music chart-toppers Parmalee, featuring Lebanon, Kentucky, native and American Idol alum Layla Spring ( July 15).

In the meantime, “The Stephen Foster Story” is excited to be back and better than

ever. Bass, for one, is looking forward to the energy and excitement the performance season brings.

“The Stephen Foster Story” for many more seasons to come.

“In the off-season there are just three of us in the office, and it explodes into this force of 100 other people here between the cast, crew, ushers, box office and concessions,” he says. “It’s crazy how it goes from being so quiet to a crazy explosion of art and music.”

“One of my favorite experiences every year is talking to parents and grandparents who saw the show years ago and are now bringing their kids and grandkids,” Bass says. “It’s fun to see the generational consistency. In preserving history, we have become history.”

Bass and his colleagues are excited to have the opportunity to continue the tradition of

R&B ROOFING AND REMODELING 12700 Townepark Way Louisville, KY 40243 (502) 268-4216 GottaBeRandB.com

R&B Roofing and Remodeling has upgraded properties around the Louisville area for more than a decade, and their work in the community has truly set them apart as a leader in the market.

“We believe the community is our family, and we have to support them as much as they support us,” says R&B General Manager Scott Waldman.

Last Christmas, R&B partnered with the Salvation Army to help feed Louisville’s extensive homeless population. R&B also signed on to sponsor the Salvation Army’s Ice Cream and Birthday Social program for 2019. As part of that program, Louisville’s homeless residents are invited to a celebration during their birthday month where they receive a small gift and are served cake and ice cream.

“When you’re homeless, you’re struggling to just find a meal or a place to sleep and nobody ever says happy birthday to you,” says Waldman, noting that the majority of the population is just one to two paychecks away from being on the street themselves.

“At R&B we like to pick up the community,

we like to add value over and above the value we’re adding to people’s homes and projects.”

And those projects are extensive. R&B operates 10 crews with more than 120 contractors who work with both commercial and residential property owners. Customers get a great deal because R&B employs their own contractors instead of bidding out the work.

“We’re able to turn projects very quickly and efficiently, and we don’t have to mark up the cost because it’s our employees doing the R&B works with customers to create a plan work,” Waldman says. and install schedule that works best for their A full-service construction company, R&B’s situation.

NATIONAL VETERANS WHEELCHAIR GAMES COMING TO LOUISVILLE JULY 11-16 Writer / Christy Heitger-Ewing

Each year the National Veterans Wheelchair Games (NVWG) is co-presented between the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA).

The games serve veterans with spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, amputations and other neurological impairments that require the individual to use wheelchairs or adaptive equipment for sports and recreation.

“The games reflect the VA and PVA’s rehabilitation commitment to inspire and empower veterans with physical disabilities to lead more active lives through sports,” says Dave Tostenrude, Director of NVWG. This year the NVWG are coming to Louisville between July 11-16 as the Robley Rex VA Medical Center is cohosting the games with the Kentucky-Indiana Chapter of the Paralyzed Veterans of America (KIPVA). Free and open to the public to spectate, this is the 39th year for the games.

According to Tostenrude, the games are a rehabilitation event at its core given that approximately 25% of the veterans who attend are being active through VA

rehabilitation programs or through the PVA’s chapters across the country.

“There’s nothing out there like it,” Tostenrude says.

“We’re using adaptive sports as a tool to get people living healthy lives,” says Tostenrude, who has been working for the VA since 1990, starting first as a recreational therapist specializing in spinal cord injury rehabilitation in Seattle. He then served as a coach for 12 years before moving into an administrative role within the VA. In 2012, when the long-term founder and director of the games retired, Tostenrude says he “won the lottery and was selected as the new director.”

Besides the 600 veterans, another 150-200 caregivers and staff will work the event, not counting the hundreds of sponsors and thousands of volunteers. According to Heather Harding, the local [Louisville] Organizing Chair of the 39th NVWG, it takes between 2,500 to 4,500 volunteers working in various capacities throughout the week to put on this massive event.

This year organizers are anticipating more than 600 veterans to come to Louisville.

According to Vickie Lincks, Executive Director of KIPVA, 23 of those athletes hail from Kentucky and Indiana. They are also expecting a record number of novices (newly injured or new to the program) to participate — 170 are already registered. The games introduce novices to a larger community that many didn’t even know existed. And it works both ways as two-thirds of the veterans who return each year do so because they want to inspire the novices.

JUNE 2019

The program, which follows a Paralympic model, includes 20 different events ranging from basketball, boccia, and bowling to track, trapshooting and table tennis. There’s also swimming, softball, cycling, power lifting and power soccer, as well as archery, air guns, quad rugby and a golf scramble.

Then there’s the ever-popular wheelchair obstacle course called the slalom, a test of agility, strength, skill and speed.

“We offer pretty much the entire spectrum of adaptive sports,” says Tostenrude, noting that they’ve had a number of veterans who have been exposed to wheelchair sports at the NVWG and have gone on to win gold

medals at Paralympic competitions.

Athletes are encouraged to participate in up to five events as long as their physician has cleared them to do so. Each year the NVWG move to a new community so that veterans can not only visit different cities but also practice navigating outside their comfort zone.

“By traveling to other cities, they have to transition their care away from their home community where they’re secure,” Tostenrude says. “They become more independent because traveling in a wheelchair can be really challenging and that’s part of the experience.”

In addition, having different cities host enables the VA and PVA to expose communities to greater opportunities to support veteran services. For instance, this year during the week of the games, there’s a giant music festival happening in Louisville.

“It’s kind of hard for the Louisville community not to see 600 people rolling around, competing, and having a great time,” says Tostenrude. “It’s great exposure for people to support programs for the disabled community.”

The main hub for the NVWG will be at the Kentucky International Convention Center though they will also utilize a variety of outdoor venues as well. For instance, cycling will be held at Beckley Creek Park.

Field events will be at Pope Lick Park.

Jeffersonville High School will host the track events. The sports festival/team challenge will be at Belvedere Park. And the athlete reception, as well as the slalom/ Super G will be at Fourth Street Live.

The Super G is a head-to-head timed obstacle course competition between two athletes who have the same level of injury.

UPS, a national sponsor for the event, has stepped up to make the experience

unforgettable for the veterans. For example, they’re bringing in some of their soupedup vehicles to stage in the area. They’re also building a platform to cover the entire street. The Super G, held at the end of the week, is a hallmark event that Tostenrude describes as “American Ninja Warrior on steroids but in a wheelchair.”

“They’ll put the athletes four feet in the air on railroad ties and they have to traverse that in their wheelchair. We’re going to have them climb a climbing wall in their wheelchairs,” Harding says. “It’s amazing to watch these wheelchaired athletes go through an obstacle course that a lot of us probably couldn’t do ourselves.”

After 26 years of working with the games, Tostenrude still gets choked up during opening ceremonies.

“When the novices come into the opening ceremonies and recognize that they’re part

Executive Director Susanna Westerfield

Man’s Best Friend reach capacity and can close, but by law we can’t turn away pets. We take in approximately While dogs are often known to mankind as 7,400 pets per year. We are a no-kill status, “man’s best friend”, they aren’t always treated regardless of overcrowding, as of 2017. We as such. Friends of Metro Animal Services rely heavily on our community to foster and (FOMAS) seeks to remedy the often adopt, as well as our rescue groups.” mistreated and abandoned pet population by becoming a home for homeless pets in Ironically, as the executive director, Louisville, Ky. Westerfield says she wasn’t immediately on board with the idea of FOMAS. After FOMAS is a 501(c)3 nonprofit entity learning it’s a no-kill shelter, she had a formed in 2009. In April 2018, it appointed change of heart. Her involvement with the its first ever executive director, Susanna M. animals becomes even more ironic as you Westerfield, to expand community outreach get to know her. and create events that will raise money for Louisville Metro Animal Services (LMAS). “I’m actually very allergic to cats and dogs,” Westerfield says. “I grew up taking allergy According to Westerfield, the goal of shots and having no pets in the house. After LMAS is to help families keep their pets. college, I had my own home and I thought I Statistically, many families surrender pets would take two kittens from a friend. After because they can’t afford to take care of a week, I couldn’t breathe. I went to my them. LMAS is different than other rescue allergy doctor, Dr. Corbett, whom I still see groups in Louisville because it’s the only today. I told him I was keeping the pets and open-admission shelter in Jefferson County. he was going to find a way for me to breathe.

I still have pets today!”

“We take the sick, injured, abused, and abandoned pets of Jefferson County,” LMAS is under the metro government, Westerfield says. “Some of the other shelters and they have a budget, according to Writer / Shannon Evanko

Westerfield. Because budgets get reduced, taken away, etc., FOMAS has a free adoption program called Pay it Forward to raise money and provide for LMAS. When someone adopts from them, the animal will have vaccinations, microchips and be spayed or neutered.

“Once someone has their required, approved application, we ask them to pay it forward with a donation that works for them,” Westerfield says.

Similar to Westerfield’s initial assumptions about animal shelters, she says euthanization is a common misconception LMAS faces.

“We have to have community support to be a world-class animal shelter. We partner with rescue groups locally, and we are very grateful for that,” Westerfield says. “They have no choice but to shut the door, and we can’t. Another misconception is that these are ‘bad animals’. The reality is that the animals who end up in our care don’t have a choice. They are not strays, they are someone’s pet and have been abandoned.”

Naturally for any nonprofit, there are financial needs. According to Westerfield, naming rights and monetary donations at any level are both options for donating to FOMAS. “Twenty dollars per year will make a huge difference,” Westerfield says. “These monies will help us provide updated items in the new animal care facility being built.

With an annual donation of $1,000, any company or individual can claim their naming right to either a cat or dog kennel.”

If someone is unable to give financially, there are plenty of other fun ways to be involved.

“Another big need we have is volunteering,” Westerfield says. “We have a great field trip orientation program run by Stephanie Jackson to get the pet out for the day or overnight.

You attend a one-hour orientation and complete an application. It’s a significant help to that pet to be outside of the shelter.”

LMAS celebrated a ground-breaking on July 5, 2018, for their Newburg Road campus. Westerfield says the current facility on Manslick Road needs to be evacuated because it’s in a flood zone and has poor ventilation. Newburg Road will be a campus-sized location with a half-mile walking trail. This is the same location where our current Animal House Adoption Center is located.

According to Westerfield, the Newburg facility will be in the former Public Works location. It will be refurbished and house a medical treatment center, spay/neuter clinic, diagnostics and X-ray room, more dog play yards and more conducive facilities for employees.

a very long time and care so deeply,” Westerfield says. “We need to provide for them, as well, to care for the animals.

Our updated facility will help us provide and improve upon the after-hour needs of families and pets. We contract out many animal care services, which is an enormous expense. To help with these expenses we ask help from our community in the form of giving. Donors will get an opportunity to name a cat or dog kennel, for example, with an annual donation.

We have many to select from. Anyone interested in becoming a donor can contact me directly.”

As for the future of FOMAS and their hopes for LMAS, things seem clear.

“Empty kennels are our desire,” Westerfield says. “Any pet that comes into our kennel may need to be there because they’ve been injured, sick or abused, even. We are helping pets, but also people. Animals give steadfast love, no matter what.”

LMAS earned their no-kill status in 2017, and they need the community to help them stay that way, according to Westerfield. No-kill is a day-to-day goal, but not a guarantee.

“Come and find your pets,” Westerfield says. “We need volunteers to work events.

We need funds. You bring a pet to us, they are not automatically euthanized. We’re

going to do all that we can do to re-home that pet, but we need the community’s help every day.”

2. APPLY PROTECTION BEFORE GOING OUTDOORS Combining permethrin-treated clothing (or specially-designed, chemical-free Rynoskin clothing) with skin repellent will provide a personal layer of defense against ticks.

Permethrin is safe for humans and can be applied to both the inside and outside of clothing items (and camping gear) to effectively repel and kill ticks.

You can treat your own clothing at home, mail it in to a treatment company or buy pre-treated clothing.

Apply skin repellent to the areas on your body that are not covered by treated clothing. There are several skin repellents on the market, with varying effective timeframes and active ingredients. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s usage directions and avoid products that combine repellent with sunscreen.

3. “DE-TICK” AFTER COMING BACK INDOORS There are three crucial steps for any “deticking” protocol.

First, as soon as you come inside, disrobe and tumble dry your clothes on high heat (without washing them) – 10 minutes (gas) or 15 minutes (electric). Studies have shown that dry heat kills ticks.

Damp or wet clothing should be tumble dried on high heat for at least 60-90 minutes.

Muddy clothes should be washed in hot water (130°or higher). If you must wash the clothes in cold or warm water, be careful handling them between the washer and dryer, because ticks could survive those wash cycles. Then you can tumble dry them for 60 minutes (high heat) to 90 minutes (low heat) or until completely dry.

The second “de-ticking” step is a full-body tick check.

“You usually have to head downtown or to a different neighborhood to hear quality jazz.”

The festival experienced foot traffic from customers of the retail stores in the immediate area, who happily stumbled upon the event.

At Our House Restoration, we have a slogan that reads “Home is not a PLACE… it’s a feeling.” With the ever-increasing popularity of the DIY and HGTV shows, homeowners can see that slogan in action and crave that feeling in their own lives. But what takes 30 to 60 minutes on TV is hardly an accurate picture of what a home renovation looks like.

Let’s start with the fact that the contractors that are featured are tried-andtrue professionals. If we’re being honest, this might be the most important step in your entire renovation and something the reality show homeowners do not have to worry about.

With home renovations in high demand, combined with skilled labor at its lowest availability in history, finding someone to do the work, let alone good work, is often difficult. I recommend you hire a good general contractor (or GC) rather than a handyman or try to be your own GC. If you hire the right GC, they should be able to bring all the moving pieces together and coordinate everything behind the scenes so that you don’t have to as well as warranty all work completed by their subs.

Here are some tips for finding a good GC. Do your research. Go to the BBB and make sure they are a registered business. Look at their rating, it does make a difference. Are they a licensed contractor with Louisville Metro? Do they have liability insurance?

Are they a part of the professional organizations like the Louisville Building Industry Association and the NHBA? Are

There is a reason the reality shows require their homeowners to move out of their house during the renovation. It gives the crew unlimited access and unlimited hours to your home. Make sure you are giving your workers unencumbered access to the space being renovated.

Have high but realistic expectations. If you are renovating, there’s nothing wrong with expecting a job well done, however, do not be a “hover” homeowner. No one likes to be micromanaged and the goal is to get the work done well.

Expect something will go wrong, you’ll be pleasantly surprised if it doesn’t. While the goal for any contractor is to have a perfect

So, after all this, is renovating really worth it? Have you seen the joy, elation and tears in the great reveals on HGTV? You really can have the home of your dreams, one that when you pull up into your driveway you are not only proud of your home’s curb appeal, but when you walk in it functions and flows for your family, and one you will love to fill with friends. Best of all, now you can have the place you live in… really feel like home.

Designing more comfortable wheelchair handles. Caps to apply sunscreen. Grips to hold fitted sheets. Just some of the past projects for “Design The Future,” a weeklong design and engineering program for high schools students by DC Design, a small social impact design firm in Oakland, California.

The University of Louisville is hosting the program for the first time this June, along with Stanford University, Boston University, University of Kansas, University of Wisconsin –Madison and Sacred Heart University. The program began five years ago at Stanford.

The immersive STEM summer program was developed with the Institute of Design at Stanford and K12 Lab by creator Durell Coleman of DC Design. The program teaches students a college environment,

engagement to effect social challenges and about looking at abilities and creating products to improve daily life and the world around them.

Design The Future and lead designer at DC Design. Johnson is an alumna of Stanford and University of Kansas. “It’s getting to know the partner, understand what life is like.”

Students learn design concepts, work in teams and hear guest lectures from professors and entrepreneurs. The emphasis is on participation, not just in a classroom approach but also person-centered and in hands-on building and developing understanding and empathy.

Students meet project partners, make prototypes and test them with project partners. Low fidelity prototypes are made with materials such as cardboard and duct tape, then a coach evaluates and buys material for the final products.

“I’m not just making a product to make a product but making a product for a person,” says one student, in the “Design The Future 2018” video.

The program also teaches students to design with project partners, not just for them, in the process learning ways to help people in future and learning to persist to find solutions, keeping the user in mind.

There are two six-day sessions for 30-50 participants. Teams of students work with project partners to understand their daily life. “It’s putting yourself in their shoes, starting with understanding experiences,” says Libby Johnson, lead facilitator for

The program hires local high school teachers and facilitators and college students as coaches. Local students pay to participate but scholarships are available for low-income students and students from under-represented groups.

34 / ST. MATTHEWS MAGAZINE / JUNE 2019 / StMatthewsMag.com

The University of Louisville was chosen because the school’s social engagement and community focus on design.

“It fits well to expand,” Johnson says. “The University of Louisville cares about social impact when wanting to bring programs to the Midwest.”

Johnson is from Lawrence, Kansas but has contacts in Louisville.

The program teaches students to “take challenges, in engineering or other fields, while figuring out who they’re going to be, what to do and about going to college.”

Some program participants plan to go into engineering or design, some to education and social work.

“The common thread is to show concern for others, and to help others, in math or science or languages,” Johnson says.

The group also has a growing network of alumni who stay in touch, both students and project partners. Some partners even participate again in different year sessions.

Last year, a filmmaker followed the program and decided to make a documentary. The 30-minute video “Design The Future,” is in production by David Orr of Paperweight Films.

Schools see the importance of Design The Future in giving back to the community.

“Design The Future allows kids to believe in the idea they change the future, and they can change the world,” described a project partner.

Johnson encourages the whole community to get involved.

“We’re encouraging students to apply, to ask questions and looking for project partners,” Johnson says.

Ryan Foundoulis was a student in Design The Future at Stanford University in 2017.

His team worked on a storage solution compatible with a project partner’s wheelchair to help access personal items.

Foundoulis noted that Design The Future influenced his future school and career plans.

He is currently studying physics at UCLA. “We’re looking for students who want to “It definitely had an impact on how I chose a make an impact, to bring together different college career, and career thereafter,” he says. backgrounds and skills and give them a direction to go in,” he says.

University this summer.

Foundoulis is also serving on Design The Future’s Student and Parent Advisory Board, offering ideas and reviewing applications.

“It’s a crash course in design and the tools to go forward and make something to help someone,” he says. “That’s why I want to be

a coach, to steer someone in the direction I got.”

For students thinking of applying, he offers this advice — don’t worry if you don’t have a technical background.

“The most important thing we look for is if students really care, want to help, have a passion and want to make someone’s life better,” he says.
