The Grand’s History…

The Grand is uniquely elegant and has a rich history of entertainment throughout history.

Located in Historic Downtown New Albany along the Ohio river, this creates a beautiful background for your event. The Grand is only a few short blocks from several Hotels & a beautiful bed & breakfast, Admiral Bicknell Inn, to accommodate out of town guests. The Grand is located Just minutes of Louisville International Airport, and downtown Louisville.

The Grand was built in 1909 and began its long tenure of providing its patrons with excellent entertainment. Admission of 10 cents entitled a person to stay an hour and witness two acts of vaudeville, see three reels of moving pictures & hear two songs besides enjoying one of the best orchestras in commission.

In 1929, The Grand was remodeled and outfitted with “Fox Movietone”, which was cutting edge at the time. This enabled patrons to see and hear news related to national and world events for the first time. By 1931, sixteen theaters and two opera houses came and went in New Albany, leaving only The Grand and the Indiana theaters. In January 1937, the Ohio River rose to an unprecedented level. Boats were the only means of transportation in the downtown area. At the crest of the flood, the water was “ticket counter” high, on the box office of The Grand. In July The Grand started its renovation project which was completed that December. By the 1950’s the Grand, one of the first theaters in New Albany was the only theater left. The last movie shown in The Grand was in 1975.

Many times we are touched and entertained to hear people speak of their memories and recollections of days spent here at The Grand in such a different time. We hope your special memory of your wedding day will be added to this collection of cherished memories shared and created at The Grand.

Sizzling first half helps Jeff beat Hornets, 73-54

BY GREG MENGELT

greg.mengelt@newsandtribune.com

JEFFERSONVILLE — It hasn’t been the kind of senior year Chad Hudson, Ronnie Todd, Nolan Fertig, Triston Kimbrough and Harrison Dale imagined before the season began, but it’s starting to come together for their Red Devils at the right time.

Jeffersonville (8-13) knocked down five first-half 3-pointers and made their first 15 free throws to beat visiting Henryville 73-54 to close the regular season with its third win in four games.

“I just tried to enjoy it, knowing it’s our last game here as senior,” Hudson said.

Jasper holds off Floyd in overtime Ervin’s heave misses at final horn of 73-71 loss

BY CHRIS STONER

sports@newsandtribune.com

FLOYDS KNOBS — An evenly matched game on paper turned into just that Wednesday night at Floyd Central. The host Highlanders and visiting Jasper locked horns in a classic battle that went to the Wildcats 73-71 in overtime.

Myles Ervin’s half-court shot at the buzzer narrowly rimmed off and Jasper (146) snuck away with its first win on Joe Hinton Court since 2009.

“We played 16 minutes of, not arguably the worst, but absolutely the worst defense we’ve played this year,” Floyd head coach Todd Sturgeon said of his team’s firsthalf defense.

Jasper shot 62 percent over the first two periods.

“Now you always have to credit the other team,” Sturgeon continued. “They were doing some things well. They have a good team that executes well and they were sharp, but we were just horrific defensively in the first half.”

Both teams placed four players in double figures.

Ervin led all scorers with 18, including three triples. The Wildcats Tyle Begle matched Ervin’s three bombs and led the guests with 16.

“I was happy with the way we fought back during the course of the game and showed some metal there, but obviously, any time you’re in a game like this and you see the things you did wrong, it’s just hard to accept,” Sturgeon said.

With the game knotted at 15-15 starting the second quarter, Jasper nailed 10-of12 second quarter shots for a 39-34 halftime advantage.

had games with Corydon Central and Castle canceled and the Hornets lost home games to Springs Valley and West Washington due to the winter weather.

“I’m really thankful [to Henryville] for playing us tonight and giving us a chance to have Senior Night,” Jeff coach Matt Pait said.

The setup came naturally. Pait is engaged to Henryville firstyear coach Jared Hill’s sister and Hornet volleyball coach Shallon Hill. The two are set to be married in 24 days. Jared Hill joked that he was disappointed his sister sat behind the Red Devil bench.

“I’m a little upset she sat behind the fiancé,” Hill said. “She’s not married yet, so she probably should have been sitting behind

my bench. I’m really excited for her and Matt. Matt’s a great guy and she deserves somebody like Matt.”

Both coaches hope the series continues in the future.

“I’d love to do it,” Hill said.

“I’d love for them to come to Henryville and for us to come back here.”

“If Jared’s willing to play it, I would be,” Pait said. “It’s up to the athletic directors on that one.”

Junior Demarre Sims got the Red Devils off to a fast start with eight of his 13 points coming in the opening period. Kimbrough and Michael Minton each added a 3-pointer as Jeff grabbed a 20-8 lead after one period.

The win marked the first time the Dragons have gone without an MSC loss since the 1996-97 season and gave Silver Creek a win over a fellow top-10 team as it prepares for the start of sectional play next week.

“We’ve had our goals set for a long time,” said Dragon center Christian Reed, who dominated the Panthers to the tune of 18 points and 10 rebounds. “But we just see this (the MSC title) as a small stepping stone. We’ll celebrate this tonight, but we’re going to save the big celebrations for later.”

Area PC Pro

Area PC Pro was established in 2014 out of necessity. The company’s owner Jesse Guerrero Jr saw a need for a higher level of customer service in local computer repair business. Jesse began buying and selling computers out of his garage while also working full time for a corporate IT company. Jesse has over 10 years of experience in computer repair, sales, and service. He is also well known for building high quality custom computers. In August of 2014 Area PC Pro opened for business in New Albany and is currently located at 110 E Main Street, across the street from Schmitt Furniture in the old Southside Inn building right next door to Big Four Burgers.

“At Area PC Pro we take tremendous amount of pride in delivering the best product possible when it comes to our service as well

as our new, used, and refurbished computers for sale. I make it my personal mission to make sure that every customer is 100% happy with their purchase or services performed. It is this mentality that is responsible for the reputation that we have earned. I want to thank all of our customers for the wonderful online reviews and for voting us Best Computer Store, Best Computer Repair and Best Locally Owned Business!”

If you are in the New Albany / Floyd County area and in need of computer repair, sales or service give Area PC Pro an opportunity to earn your business. If you live in the surrounding areas of Clarksville, Jeffersonville, etcetera you should find it’s worth it to drive a little further for the level of service.

Summer’s Plumbing Heating and Cooling, 2533 Corydon Pike, New Albany, was established in 2008. The New Albany branch was opened by proud local owners Jay Bernd and Rich Walker when they acquired the business Berryman & Son that has served Indiana since 1953. The 3,000 square foot building has been remodeled with an eye-catching paint job and new signage. The bright colored vehicles have already been spotted serving many homes in Southern Indiana.

In the short time they have been open, Summers PHC has infused over $400,000 into the local economy. Rich and Jay are both deeply rooted in the community; their growing involvement includes donating more than $15,000 to local high schools, nonprofit organizations, and veterans.

Summers services and installs all brands plus eco-friendly options like solar and geothermal system. With an up-front pricing guide that locks in the cost prior to repair, customers will never be surprised by hidden charges. Summers delivers “superior service at affordable prices.” The owners, with over 50 years of combined experience in HVAC, are looking forward to meeting the local community and showing their appreciation for the opportunity to serve their neighbors.

Bennett Place

18 years ago, when Bennett Place opened, we delivered a pioneering approach to assisted living designed to give residents a supportive, stimulating assisted living environment where they will thrive in mind, body, and spirit.

At Bennett Place, we work to meet each resident’s unique needs, with quality care and senior living amenities in an environment that offers a sense of belonging for our residents, as though they are a member of a family. Our compassionate staff works to help residents maintain their wellbeing, form meaningful connections, and engage with the things they care about.

Beginning with a thorough health and wellness conversation that helps us become deeply familiar with each resident. We pair residents with dedicated Resident Care Partners, who know their needs and learn their preferences. We are committed to providing the specific care each resident requires to flourish.

We respect the culture and personality that forms in our community. Because Bennett Place is more intimate, with only 39 apartments, we are able to tailor our programs to the interests and abilities of our residents. We help our residents do the things they’ve always loved, or find new interests, make friends, and rekindle their own spark.

Come see for yourself! Call Robin at 812-948-1960 and schedule a visit soon.
