Derby isn’t coming – Derby is here! A week spent eating, drinking, catching up with old friends and of course spending a lot of time at one of my favorite places in the world – Churchill Downs. There is nothing more special than hearing 150,000 people sing My Old Kentucky Home, or watching the crowd rise all at once as the riders take the final turn in the most exciting moment in all of thoroughbred horse racing.

We have a jam packed issue for you this week as Louisville gears up for the “The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports,” kicking off with this week’s feature by our very own John Asher, who gives us the lowdown on which horse you should put your hard earned money on in the big race and how to make the most of your Derby experience.

For Profile this week we caught up with two amazing women doing some pretty incredible work. First, we chat with Deborah Morton, Executive Director of FEAT (Families for Effective Autism Treatment) which is one of the city’s most valued entities. While still geared toward offering support to families affected by autism, we now hear about the changes Morton and her team want to bring as her new role takes form. Next we sit down with Stephanie Fellon on how her six years on the board of Gilda’s Club have helped transform some of the city’s most well attended events.

We talk with her about the plans for Gilda’s Night of a Thousand Laughs, coming up next week, as well as how the organization is carrying out the mission of healing with laughter.

In Sports, the Derby continues to take a front seat thanks to Kent Taylor, who caught up with Ahmed Zayat,

the owner of one of the Derby’s favorite frontrunners – American Pharoah. On a different turf, we get the latest from Louisville FC as their season is in full swing, and we also unveil our Northwestern Mutual Student Athlete of the Month, courtesy of our high school sports reporter, Randy Whetstone.

Even with the first Saturday in May right around the corner, the city showed no signs of slowing down as everyone put their best foot forward at Moet Chandon’s Imperial Ice launch party, which brought the unique beverage to the mouths of partygoers for a sneak preview of the brand’s latest product. ESPN celebrated another achievement as they hosted Louisville’s own radio affiliates and personalities from AM 680, 105.7 FM and the newly added 93.9 The Ville – a station focusing solely on UofL athletics. For those who ran the Kentucky Derby Festival Marathon and miniMarathon, Hope Scarves offered a pre-race pasta dinner, both to feed the runners and to raise money for research dedicated to metastatic breast cancer. It was an artistic-centric weekend, with the 44th annual Cherokee Triangle Art Fair taking place as well as an evening of music at the home of Dr. Lori Warren and Marty McClelland, where they welcomed friends for a meeting and private show from 19-year-old Finland native and musical prodigy Peppina. And last but certainly not least, the weekend was topped off with not one but two surprise parties for my very dear friend Jeff Howard. Given lovingly by his partner, Mark Eliason, the weekend showed no shortage of celebration as Jeff turned another year older – not that anyone could tell by looking at him.

With the Chow Wagon taking over Waterfront Park, the signs of summer are officially here, which means food on a stick and fireflies. It’s also a time when the kids start getting a little stir crazy – which is when the words Summer Camp are like music to our ears. Take a look at our in depth special section dedicated solely to Summer Camps and offering a plethora of options to keep the little ones active and parents sane.

And now, it’s Derby time. See you at the track.

Relax and enjoy!

or Deborah Morton, who has been with FEAT of Louisville – the city’s renowned autism support group – since 2007, what started out as a simple chance to volunteer and help with marketing morphed into an appointment as executive director in January of this year.

of that process.

“I think in our community we’re running short on programs for teenagers and young Staff Writer adults,” explains Morton.

“There are a lot of folks in IGOR our city that have GURYASHKIN autism, so what is going to happen to them tomorrow, when they are 25 years old?

“Some of these families, they just simply worry about what might happen to their chil-

dren when they are no longer here. Who is going to take care of them? So I think a goal of FEAT is to make progress here.”

So far, stepping up to the position of exec-

“I’m here because of the people that I met and the journey they were on and the struggles that they had and seeing their lives. And because of the role that I had, in being able to help them, I could not imagine doing anything else.”

utive director has been nothing but a positive experience for Morton – a chance to make even more of a difference with an organization she treasures dearly, as do the people it helps.

“Last year, we ended up with 823 runners and around 200 spectators,” explains Morton.

“There were plenty of folks that came out just to cheer other people on. But this year, we’re hoping to be at 1,000 participants.”

“It’s been great,” she adds. “My family is very supportive, as I’ve always been known as being part of FEAT. But it’s just been so satisfying working for a nonprofit. I had never considered working for a nonprofit when I finished my bachelor’s or master’s degree.

But I’m here because of the people that I met and the journey they were on and the struggles that they had and seeing their lives. And because of the role that I had in being able to help them, I could not imagine doing anything else.”

The number would be apt given it’s the race’s 10th anniversary. A record would be the cherry on the cake for an event that’s firmly becoming a staple – not just for racers, but as a day out for the whole family. Run in the Parklands, there’s a big kid zone with bounce castles and face painting. And for the runners, Morton says they’ve got a new thing up their sleeve.

For now, the attention is on the FEAT 5K race on May 30 – and on trying to beat last year’s number of participants and amount of money raised.

“This year, we’re actually stepping it up, and we’re doing a chipped race,” says Morton. “Now, I’m not a runner, but from what I understand, that’s a really big deal when it comes to recording your time. You wear a tiny chip on your shoe and that will record you as soon as you get across the finish line.”

Things like that mean there’s a good chance that the race may break its records – especially the amount of money it raises.

“Last year, we raised close to $55,000, and this year – we really hope that we get more this year.”

Because in the end, the money raised is able to do the most important of things: notify people of what FEAT is and of the good work they are capable of doing for autism support in the Louisville area. Take the example of the swimming program: “We’ve seen success” – Morton says – “with our swimming program: kids that are drawn to water because they think it’s really neat, but cognitively, they don’t understand that it can kill them. So we created a swim program, and now we have kids that are learning how to swim and understand water.” VT For information on the FEAT 5K and volunteering opportunities, visit www.featoflouisville.org W W W .

Using Humor to Heal A

By Remy Sisk

cancer diagnosis means many things. It often entail stears, treatments, medicines, surgeries and other unpleasant realities. But for Gilda’s Club, it entails something else: laughter. Founded in 1991 and brought to Louisville in 2004, Gilda’s is a place where cancer patients don’t have to be afraid.

The clubhouse is named for comedian Gilda Radner and offers a safe environment for those affected by cancer to go to talk, to be together, to learn and to laugh. Inspired by this foundation of healing through humor, Gilda’s Club Louisville board member Stephanie Fellon helped create one of the branch’s trademark events: Night of a Thousand Laughs, happening May 16 in The Bomhard Theater at The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts.

Currently in its sixth year, the event, as the name suggests, is a night of comedy. “We have local Louisvillians,” Fellon says, “who have never done stand-up comedy before, and they agree to perform a five-minute set that they write on their own. And watch out!

You could be one!” The night is bookended by a cocktail reception before the show and an after party following the comedy. In addition to the rookie comics, a professional comedian performs to close the show.

Due to the hilarity inherent in the event, Fellon sees it as a truly unique evening that offers not only a good time but also the opportunity to learn about the cause behind the laughter.

“It’s a fun event,” she says. “It’s not your typical fundraiser where you sit and there’s a person who talks and talks and talks. The event keeps you laughing, which has a lot to do with what Gilda’s is about: having a fun, lighthearted, spirit-lifting experience.”

Although Fellon now oversees the entire performance aspect of the event, she couldn’t have seen herself doing this 15 years ago.

From Manhattan, Fellon worked in the music industry there and met her Louisville-native husband in the city. The couple moved to his hometown to be married, and, although Fellon’s personal life was right on track, she had no job. She offhandedly mentioned that she was looking for work to her neighbor at the time, Lindy Street – a Gilda’s Club Louisville founding member. Street then asked Fellon to help plan the first ever Gilda’s Night, which became the organization’s major yearly fundraiser.

Fellon worked on Gilda’s Night for several years before transitioning off the event to focus more on board related activities. As the development chair of the board, she began to work closely with development director Tonya Cook to help the organization meet its yearly budget needs. Often as much about outreach as it was about fundraising, the position helped Fellon develop an entirely new skillset, which became especially useful when the organization began talks of instituting another fundraising event.

“We were looking to host another event but maybe with a lower price point so more people could come,” she says of the formulation of Night of a Thousand Laughs. “And this was a nice new event that we thought would

11

appeal to a different audience, that we could open up so more people could learn about Gilda’s.”

With a $200 ticket and a cap of 300-400 people, Gilda’s Night is a far more exclusive event than Night of a Thousand Laughs, which boasts a $40 minimum ticket and a cap that exceeds 600. Although different, the two events certainly complement each other and work in tandem for the same goal.

“Gilda’s Club is free,” Fellon points out.

“When people come here, we don’t charge for anything, but still, we have to pay for it.

You know, someone once told me, ‘Free is not cheap.’ So these fundraisers like Night of a Thousand Laughs help us keep Gilda’s free.”

Although Fellon has hit the six-year cap on a board member’s term for Gilda’s, she looks forward to working on the event for years to come, not only for its individual success but also for the long-term effect it stands to have on Gilda’s Club Louisville as a whole.

“I want the comedians to have a great time. I want the people who come to have a great time. I want people to learn a little bit about Gilda’s – or a lot about Gilda’s – and I want them to feel moved that it’s an organization they want to support, that they see the value of and that inspires them to make a donation.” VT Night of a Thousand Laughs will take place May 16 at 7:30 p.m. For the comedy show only, tickets are $40; for the show and after party, they are $75, and for the entire VIP experience, they are $150. Tickets are available at www. kentuckycenter.org or by calling 502.584.7777.

DERBY DIVAS SPRING FASHION EVENT RAISES $100,000 TO BENEFIT NORTON CANCER INSTITUTE BREAST HEALTH PROGRAM

enjoyed hors d’oeuvres, “divatinis” and socializing as they shopped for Derby attire and raised over $100,000 for the cause of good breast health.

Hundreds of fashion-minded women and men made this year’s Derby Divas event the place to be as they gathered April 16 at Rodes For Him and For Her, on Brownsboro Road. Guests

Derby Divas was formed nine years ago by a group of women civic leaders who came together to put their interest in fashion and beauty to work for a cause dear to their hearts. They raise funds to benefit the Norton Cancer Institute Breast Health Program and help provide mammograms and other breast health services for underserved women in the Louisville community.

Traditionally, Derby Divas honors two women annually for their commitment to raising awareness about breast cancer. One of this year’s honorees was Wanda Anderson, a survivor whose cancer was detected by a free mammogram she received at a mobile screening event after she lost her job and health insurance. Debbie Whiting, a past Derby Divas attendee and breast cancer survivor, also was honored.

developers, remodelers, designers and real estate agents. The hour long show will be hosted by Kimberly Greenwell and will premiere on Sundays from 12:30 p.m.-1:30 p.m. with repeat airings throughout the week.

The first show will feature local realtor Dave Parks with Berkshire Hathaway, Parks & Weisberg, Joe and Rocky Pusteri with Elite Homes, Ken Thieneman Builders, Rocco Pigneri with Ball Homes, Lisa Lynn Knight with Lisa Lynn Designs, and Semonin Realtors. The program is sponsored by Commonwealth Bank and Trust.

For more information on “Your Kentuckiana Home” contact Tom Fawbush at 502.964.2121 or tom@wbna21.com.

To date, Derby Divas has raised more than $1 million for breast health programs and initiatives. This spring, the group was thrilled to see the new “one-stop service” Derby Divas Breast Health Center dedicated at Norton Women’s and Kosair Children’s Hospital. Their aim is to raise another $500,000 over the next five years to support the center.

WBNA 21 LAUNCHING NEW REAL ESTATE SHOW Derby Divas committee members Beth Scint, Barbie Tafel, Fran Thornton, Susan Vogt, Angela Tafel, Viki Diaz and Jerri Richard helped dedicate the Derby Divas Breast Health Center on March 27 at Norton Women’s and Kosair Children’s Hospital in St. Matthews.

WBNA TV21, Louisville’s home for Locally Grown Television and the Ion Television network, is launching a new local television program called “Your Kentuckiana Home.”

Wheeler likened it to “writing a dissertation.’”

hoppers scurry in and out the front doors with the zest you’d expect around Christmastime. But it’s actually late April – last Monday afternoon, to be exact.

They bustle about within, poring over a sea of brilliantly colored fabrics and feathers and flowers.

Busy Busy Dee’s “Friday night, it’s almost like a party,” says Kathy.

They also sell all kinds of fascinators, which Kathy says have grown in popularity through the inspiration of the Duchess of Cambridge.

Dee’s Crafts sells more Derby hats than any other store in the Louisville area.

And the Kentucky Derby is almost here.

In a workshop at the back of the store, dashing hats are flying into shape at the hands of four of Dee’s hat experts, who never break their focus. They work like chefs in a Saturday night kitchen.

Though inundated with incessant duties, Kathy and Larry Olliges graciously make time to sit down and talk about the store they’ve owned for many years.

“Nobody else really does what we do,” Larry says. “They certainly don’t do it to the scale that we do it.”

Dee’s sells both finished hats and materials to customize your own hat. In addition to individual customers, they sell materials to designers, who then create hats for their own customers.

The 23,000-square-foot store has all the bases covered. In addition to hats, there’s a vast selection of silk flowers and yarn. There are beads, scrapbooking materials, home décor, accessories and gifts galore – even a custom picture-framing department.

Dee’s has 22 permanent employees, plus a temporary staff of 12 during the six weeks leading to Derby.

The Olliges spend nearly all year preparing for Derby season.

Larry and Kathy Olliges.

“After 25 years of doing it, we’ve got it down to a science, but we still spend probably 30 or 40 percent of our time during the year working on our hat business,” Larry says.

Indeed, it might be tough to match the volume at Dee’s.

The gift and craft store at 5045 Shelbyville Road fulfills about 2,000 custom hat orders each year. This flurry of hats starts around February and builds in intensity until the Friday before Derby.

“Just coming up with a better idea how it can run smoother, how we can create something without making a mistake,” Kathy says. “We’re working at different ways and techniques to make the hats look better.”

“We’re busy all week till 8 o’clock on Friday night,” Larry says. “We literally have to turn the lights out.”

This year, gold trim is in style, she says.

And for Oaks, they’ve been selling lots of pinks and corals.

“Kathy just has a great passion for the whole product line, for creating hats, “ Larry says.

Their second-busiest time is the Christmas season, which starts in August at Dee’s.

That’s when customers start shopping for products to fashion their own wreaths and decorations.

The story of Dee’s began in 1970, when Kathy’s parents, Bob and June Vogelsberg, purchased a small store on Lexington Road called Dee’s Gifts. They kept the name and opened their own consignment gift shop, where everything was handmade.

Soon, customers wanted to know how to create their own decoupage crafts.

So the Vogelsbergs got the materials and started teaching people how to decoupage.

And the craft business was born.

The business steadily grew over the years, and the Olliges took on full ownership after Kathy’s parents passed away.

Running Dee’s keeps them busy even in the offseasons, when they frequent gift and craft shows to source the best colors and trends.

“The merchandise is always different,” Kathy says. “You’re always searching out different things.

“It’s never the same thing two months in a row,” she adds, so I like that part of it.”

It seems their efforts are paying off.

“We have people tell us all the time when they come in, ‘Oh, my hat was on this magazine, or it was on that show,’” Kathy says.

“Our hats have appeared in every major newspaper in the United States,” says Larry.

And the hat business grows every year. VT For more information, call the store at 502.896.6755 or visit www.deescrafts.com.

Louisville City Takes Down Roughnecks

T

he second clean sheet of the season for Louisville City FC goalkeeper, Scott Goodwin, kept Louisville City FC unbeaten in 2015 and notched the club their second win of the season. Despite being shorthanded for a majority of the second half, Louisville City FC (2-0-3) came away with a 2-0 win over Western Conference opponent, Tulsa Roughnecks FC in front of 4,887.

The game was played at an incredible pace early on. Tulsa Roughnecks FC (1-3-1) had some chances but it was Lou City who struck first for the fourth time in five games.

Bryan Burke, who has been dangerous down the right side all season, sent in a right footed

cross that found the head of Matt Fondy, and the forward would not be denied this time. The first goal of the season for the forward out of California, gave Louisville City FC the 1-0 lead 24 minutes into the contest.

Fondy would have a chance to double his output in the 43rd minute when he angled right and fired a shot to the far post that forced, Tulsa goalkeeper, Zac Lupin to make a diving save. Without another goal in the first half, Louisville City FC has now seen the same score line in all five games of the season and have led four of the five.

The chance of getting all three points for the first time since the home opener appeared to be in a bit of jeopardy in the 55th. Lou City midfielder, Charlie Adams, made a tough tackle that, according the referee, was worthy of a red. With 35 minutes remaining and Louisville playing a man down, Tulsa were in good posi-

tion to equalize and then some.

While playing 10 versus 11 Louisville City FC did not allow much and Goodwin was not really tested until the 83rd minute. Tulsa’s best chance of the second half saw three straight shots fired on target, but Goodwin wasn’t letting anything through.

In the 89th minute, an own-goal from Ryan Price put the game away. Nate Polak made it happen as Louisville threatened the Tulsa defense inside the 18-yard-box before Polak struck a shot wide off Price. The ball ricocheted off Price and into the far-side of the net well out of the keeper’s reach, locking up three points for the hosts.

Louisville City FC will put its unbeaten streak on the line when they travel to Charlotte on Saturday. They will return home on Tuesday, May 12 versus the Wilmington Hammerheads.

American Pharoah

heads with his training in the morning. He glides effortlessly over every racing surface he sees. His five-furlong work in :58.40 was as impressive as most any work turned in by a Derby contender in my time at the track – and this will be my 34th consecutive Derby as a reporter or, since 1997, as a member of the Churchill Downs team.

Gary Young, who has been a respected clocker and bloodstock agent on the West Coast for 35 years, told Churchill Downs’ communications department after Sunday’s work that American Pharoah “might be the best horse I’ve ever seen.”

His four wins have come by a combined margin of 22 ¼ lengths, and he has an experienced partner in the saddle in Victor Espinoza, a two-time Derby winner who piloted War Emblem – Baffert’s most recent Derby winner – in 2002 and California Chrome last year.

Comments like Young’s, and American Pharoah’s dazzling on-track presence in his races and his training only serve to fuel speculation that Baffert’s latest star could prove to be a stick-out in a group of potentially important horses. A few suggest, although they do so quietly, that he could be the type of horse that could end American’s Triple Crown drought that’s been in place since Affirmed, trainer Laz Barrera and Kentucky-born riding legend Steve Cauthen swept the Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes in 1978.

He’s the type of horse that could be on or just off the lead at the head of the stretch before, on Espinoza’s cue, he bids a quick farewell and draws away in the stretch.

But before we declare American Pharoah to be the Roadrunner to 19 pursuing Wile E. Coyotes, let’s acknowledge this: it is possible that the Derby favorite might not be the best horse in his own barn.

Baffert also trains Kaleem Shah’s Dortmund, a son of 2008 Kentucky Derby winner Big Brown, who is unbeaten in six races. The last four wins have come in stakes races, with the most recent being the Santa Anita Derby.

His second victory came in an allowance race at Churchill Downs at the end of November.

An imposing presence that stands more than 17 hands, Dortmund has seemed to improve with each race. While we can only speculate on what might happen when the to-date untouchable American Pharoah is finally challenged in a race, we know that Dortmund is a fighter. He twice shook off major challenges from fellow Derby hope Firing Line and cruised when Firing Line declined to enter the ring for Round Three in the Santa Anita Derby.

The Baffert duo is the strongest pre-race onetwo Kentucky Derby punch for a single trainer in memory, and it will be a surprise if his stars are not the top two choices in fan betting on Ken-

tucky Derby Day. Their only point of reference in Derby history, at this point, is the Calumet Farm Derby duo of Citation and Coaltown, who ran 1-2 as a single betting interest for legendary trainer Ben Jones in 1948. Citation went on to sweep the Triple Crown – the last horse to do so until Secretariat’s tour de force sweep 25 years later in 1973 – on his way to 19 wins in 20 races in his 3-year-old season and the post-season honor of “Horse of the Year.”

When “Big Cy” missed the next year with injury, Coaltown was named Horse of Year in a split decision of nationwide polls. Both Calumet horses are now enshrined in racing’s Hall

Frosted: Representing Dubai-based Godolphin, and trained in the U.S. by Lexington native Kiaran McLaughlin, the gray son of Tapit has overcome adversity on the road to Louisville and heads into the Derby off a sparkling win in the Wood Memorial at Aqueduct.

He could be the one to give Dubai’s Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum the Derby win he has sought for more than 20 years.

Now, a word about transparency to those who have stopped in this corner for a pre-Derby note through the years: each week from January until this week I have rated Carpe Diem atop my list of Derby candidates. While he held my utmost respect, I had resisted the urge to move American Pharoah to the top spot in my Derby ratings.

That is until Sunday, when American Pharoah left a vapor trail in his brilliant five-furlong Sunday work. Which moved me to look in the mirror and ask: are you going to try again to beat a deserving favorite, or are you going to believe your eyes?

Sports Justin and Ahmed Zayat with Bob Baffert.

Baffert is Back

Bob Baffert has started 24 horses in the Kentucky Derby, with three wins (Silver Charm [1997], Real Quiet [1998] and War Emblem [2002]), plus three seconds and two third place finishes. He arrives in Louisville this week with two monsters. American Pharoah has won 4 of his 5 lifetime starts, including an 8 length romp in the Arkansas Derby. Dortmund has won all 6 of his races, including the Santa Anita Derby. American Pharoah is owned by Zayat Stables. They have started five horses in the Derby, including three second place finishes. The Zayat's have three chances in Kentucky Derby 141, along with American Pharoah, they also own Mr Z, trained by D. Wayne Lukas, and El Kabeir, trained by John Terranova.

You've got to feel pretty good about your hand for this one?

Bob Baffert: We do have two really strong horses here. Pharoah looks great, goes over the track really well. He looks healthy, it looks like the Arkansas Derby didn't take a lot out of him. It's pretty tough when you ship twice and then come back. He still looks like he's coming off a layoff. He's got a great mental state of mind, and he handles everything really well.

Taylor’s 10 KENT TAYLOR WAVE3 Sports

he had the muddy track that day. I think on a dry track, he might have won it, you never know. It's one of those things that I just feel really fortunate that I have two that are outstanding. It makes it more fun when you're leading one up there that you know has a chance. In the end, I'm just hoping that when they turn for home that I have something to root for and cheer, so that's what we're all hoping for.

How much do you miss winning the Derby?

Having won three times already, how much would another one add to your resume?

Baffert: It's not really “missing” winning the Derby, it's missing a horse that you really feel you have a good chance. I was here with Lookin at Lucky, and I really thought he could win, and he had a horrible trip. So I've come here with some really nice horses, I just didn't have the racing luck. Pioneerof the Nile,

Baffert: It's been so long I forgot. That's the past right there. It was a long time ago. Every horse is different, they have a different personality, different style. This horse is (American Pharoah), he's just made differently. He moves differently than those other horses. He's a very exciting horse. The way he trains is very

exciting. When he runs he shows a dimension, he surprises me every time I run him. He still needs racing luck.

What would it be like to watch Mr. Zayat win, having watched him finish second with Pioneerof the Nile and Bodemeister?

Baffert: Well I mean when that happens, we'll worry about that, but I'm not going to get ahead of myself. The thing about it is, he knows how difficult this is. We've come in here and he's run three seconds, it's pretty tough. I saw the Pete Carroll deal, I've been there, and what he had to go through. Right now we just have to contain ourselves. It's exciting to come in here with two great horses, him and Dortmund, two different types of horses.

How quickly did you know that these horses were that special?

Baffert: They always showed it, they tipped their hand really early in training. Pharoah's P H OTO B Y R E E D PA L M E R | C H U R C H I L L D O W N S

first race, he was just acting totally crazy, it's the only time he's ever been that way, he was just totally obnoxious in the paddock. He wasn't paying attention going into the gate, he was just, I think the blinkers really upset him and after that, he has just been great. It was really disappointing to watch him run the way he did the first out. I was sitting there with Jill telling her this was the best one we had, and after that, she said, this is going to be a long summer, but he came back and just the way he won the Del Mar Futurity. He does things impressively, for him it's very rare that I fly a horse back twice, and they perform like he did in Arkansas, because that shipping takes a lot out of them. He handles everything well, so we'll find out when he gets with those other horses, what he's made of.

How vivid are the memories of Pioneerof the Nile and Bodemeister losing in the final strides?

Justin Zayat: You mean to this guy, he'll be up in the sky.

A lot of kissing and jumping up and down in joy. I watched those Derbies over and over and again and I keep going, I wish I could change the result, I wish this didn't happen.

We're just going to wish it all goes well Saturday and he can do it for us.

How about for Dad? Ahmed Zayat: I can tell you this, Justin, for months after the Derby would not watch TV, literally he could not see that race again. I'm watching TVG or whatever and he says, dad please, just change the channel.

Which one hurt the most?

Justin Zayat: Bodemeister was probably the toughest on me. First of all those fractions you were going were ridiculous and then you open up five in the stretch and I'm like, oh my God, this is finally here, we're finally going to win the Derby and then boom, right before the wire, but you know it's part of the game.

What stands out about that loss for you?

Ahmed Zayat: Think about the first loss to Mine That Bird, was 50-1, even the caller of the race didn't see him, and he never won a race after that. Then in Nehro's race, first time ever, a horse racing on dirt for the first time ever comes and got us.

How did the name get misspelled, Pharoah instead of Pharaoh?

Ahmed Zayat: We try to be proactive with fans, so on our website we allow them to actually come and submit names that they like, their friends and relatives, special ones, and name any of our newborn babies. So actually that name was picked by a woman called Marsha, I forgot her last name, and we invited her to actually be with us watching the Rebel, and she came and she was in the winner's circle, but it was picked by her, the way the name was submitted.

Justin Zayat: I honestly just copy and pasted the name, I wasn't looking at it at the time I copy and pasted it, and it just went from there, they accepted it, and we still didn't realize it was spelled wrong until like the first time he ran. VT PHOTO BY VICTORIA GRAFF | CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER

“My mom is a very strict person, so I try to stay on top of my grades. Not missing school and staying on top of everything; it’s a big thing for my family. They expect me to do something with my life and actually make something of myself.”

Caballero’s significant source of inspiration is her mother. Her family moved to Louisville from Cuba after she turned one years of age. The strength her mother has gained as a single parent has inspired her as an athlete. After her mother made it through an appendix surgery last winter, that month of caring for her mother and keeping things balanced in her life was a struggle but built her endurance.

“It was really hard for me being there for her, while trying to prioritize everything else I had for school. But we got through it, and she is better now.”

Caballero is a junior and co-captain for Central High School’s track team.

Central is one of the premier schools in class 3-A. After a trip to state last season, it became noticeable that Caballero was a key element in the team’s success.

Caballero says that after reflecting upon being much younger than her mom, from here on out she wants to ensure that, “The years that she is still here for me I want to let it be memorable for her.”

She competes in the 100 meter, 200 meter, and 400 meter trials individually. In team meets, she competes in the 4 X 4 relays. Her personal records in each trial are 12.1 seconds in the 100 meter, 25.7 seconds in the 200 meter, and 55 seconds in the 400 meter. If you’re not a track guru, no worries; just know Caballero can run four football fields in less than one minute minus the end zones.

Fast would be an understatement. Try this; if you blink you just may miss her.

Track has taught Caballero many things. Aside from running in meets, track is a way for her to run free in life.

Her athletic prowess helped Central last year post a 3:57 time in the 4x4 relay which was a record. Recently, she won the 400m at a meet held at the University of Kentucky.

Caballero plans to go to college and study pre-med. She aspires to be a trainer for any professional sport. Schools interested in her are Northern Kentucky, Louisville, Miami University, Ohio St., and Vanderbilt. She plans to run collegiately and professionally. As her race in life continues, she will live by her own personal motto, “Run fast and fearless.” VT

“People make mistakes, and I’ve made a lot of mistakes throughout my years, but I learned to change and adapt to things and move on from other things. So track is a way that I can get away and just run. It is a place that I can go away. I can go away and just be myself and not have to change anything. So track is a big thing for me.”

Dedication spurs Caballero to excel as an athlete. She has impacted her teammates throughout the years. As co-captain she exemplifies leadership by being at every practice, encouragA P R I L 3 0 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

They will be postOur first destination was Jamestown, on St. Helena Island. You probably know this island is where Napoleon Bonaparte was exiled until his death. You may not realize that it is situated in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean, is a British Island Territory, and may be one of the most remote places on earth. We sailed for three days to get there. In mileage it is 1,200 miles from the Southwest coast of Africa and 1,800 miles from the coast of South America.

Some might picture this “exile” island, selected for its remoteness, to be a lonely, barren site.

But you would be wrong. It is one of the more extraordinary places you can visit. Its unique character and unspoiled beauty lie in contrasting and spectacular scenery, a rich cultural heritage and an environment extremely rich in biodiversity.

Until next year, when the St. Helena airport opens, the main way for tourists to get there is by cruise ships or the RMS St. Helena, only one of two ocean-going vessels in the world to currently carry the title of Royal Mail Ship. In the past, many famous British passenger liners held this title as well. From clothes to cars, medicines to machinery, toys to Christmas turkeys, everything

ed to the mail ship which takes 17 days to make the round trip from Cape Town to Jamestown to Ascension Island (our next stop) and back to Cape Town. From there they will go out by air to their international destinations. We sent one to ourselves to see how long it will take to get home.

Two days later we arrived at Ascension Island.

Anticipating its quaint beauty, we looked forward to this stop. Unfortunately, the waves were too high for us to go ashore on the ship’s tenders.

It wasn’t safe. Somehow the locals were able to bring their souvenirs, postcards and stamps to us.

So we had a “virtual visit” and sailed on toward Devil’s Island off the coast of South America, in French Guiana, where we arrived after another six sea days.

On the almost inaccessible Devil’s Island, political prisoners were held in isolation. The prisoner who became world famous was Henri Charriere, immortalized in the movie “Papillon” for supposedly being the only convict ever to have escaped from the “green hell.” Anticipating an interesting stroll on the island, a sudden unpredicted downpour after our tender landed sent us scurrying back to the ship.

Two days later, our luck brightened when we landed in Bridgetown, Barbados, and headed off on a shore excursion to Harrison’s Cave and a

Friend Mili Lopez on a stroll on Devil’s Island.

Flower Forest. The cave was a wonderful experience. We toured it on a motorized tram and were thrilled to see this beautiful, crystallized limestone cavern with flowing streams, deep pools of crystal-clear water and enormous columns.

Then we were off to a wonderful one-hour stroll in the Flower Forest before heading back to our ship to prepare for the evening’s dinner, a barbecue on the top deck, and to anticipate the next day’s stop at St. George’s, Grenada. VT

So what’s my problem, you ask? Abby, I’m not really sure what my purpose is in life or if the way my life is, is normal. I feel content – even happy at times – but I’m troubled because it seems a lot of people do the exact opposite of what I am doing and they all have a purpose. Some of them are going to school, raising kids, having relationship problems, money issues, etc. They seem to be doing so much, and I feel like I’m doing so little.

What is normal for my age? Should I be doing more? Most times I feel happy, but on a day like today I feel unfulfilled. Do I need to do more? – WHAT IS NORMAL? DEAR WHAT: Doing so little? Count your blessings! You hold a job, have a family I presume you regularly interact with, have a great relationship, hobbies you enjoy and contribute to those who have less than you. I would say you are productive and successful.

However, if YOU think you need to do more, then it’s possible you do. Take some time, decide what it is and reallocate your time if you feel you need something more to fulfill you. But please stop measuring yourself by anyone else’s yardstick because people who do that are rarely happy.

DEAR STRESSED: After spending a week in an ICU, your husband may be having concerns about ever emerging. He may have suggested his sister come because he was worried about how you would handle being alone. That you might be upset because your home isn’t ready to be featured in House Beautiful probably didn’t enter his mind.

However, now that she’s coming, be smart.

Ask her to help you with the deferred housework so the place will be shipshape when your husband is discharged. If, as you say, you and your sister-in-law aren’t close, her stay with you may be shorter than planned.

••• DEAR ABBY: I fell in love with “Alex” during my last year of college. We had known each other for 18 months. One month before our wedding, he broke up with me. He says I was verbally abusive.

I admit I had anger issues. I had to plan most of the wedding alone because we were four hours apart. When we argued, he would say one thing and then something different later. He would also tell his mom stuff about me and our relationship that I considered private. After the breakup, I found out he had lied to me about his religion.

I had a hard time with the breakup. I tried hard to reconcile or find solutions, but he rejected all of them. Now he’s blaming me

Charity SPOTLIGHT Kentucky Derby Museum’s 2015 Hat Contest What is the Hat contest and what is it in aid of ?

The Kentucky Derby Museum hat contest supports the “It’s My Derby” exhibit. In addition to the winning contest entries, this exhibit features historic hats from both personal and museum collections, as well as the permanent collection of the museum. The exhibit also features videos of Kentucky Derby fans sharing their personal Derby stories and outfits worn by celebrity attendees through the years. For the first time, the hat contest has a sponsor in The Voice-Tribune, a leader in covering Louisville’s charitable, social and cultural spheres since 1949.

Why is it such an important cause?

Protect & Correct Your Skin from the Sun with Rodan & Fields.

The hat contest is a part of the “It’s My Derby” initiative. As the keepers of Kentucky Derby history, the museum feels it’s important to include the voices from those throughout the world that celebrate this international sporting and cultural event. The hat contest allows both professional and amateur hat makers to be creative and share their artistic endeavors with us. As a result, the museum receives everything from the fanciest hats made with the finest materials to whimsical designs that are sure to bring a smile to your face. All are welcome and a large part of the Kentucky Derby experience.

With so many upcoming parties, galas, and other events it’s that time of the year to look your best head to toe. Start with your skin with Rodan & Fields and get the healthier, vibrant, younger looking glow that will make you the party standout!

Hats have been part of the Kentucky Derby since the inaugural running in 1875.

We at the museum are often asked how the hat tradition started. From 1875 up until around the 1950s, wearing hats in public was customary.

Men and women were both encouraged to wear their finest attire to certain areas of the track, which included a hat. Even as the wearing of hats became less common in general society, the tradition of wearing them to the Kentucky Derby continued. As the iconic race moves into the 1960s, we begin to see the whimsical and outlandish designs that many today also associate with the Derby.

For those who may not know about the Kentucky Derby Museum, could you tell about what you offer?

The Kentucky Derby Museum is one of Louisville’s premier tourist attractions and provides a firsthand look at the event for which the city is known worldwide. The museum aims to provide a lasting impression of tradition, hospitality and pride to its many visitors. It tells the story of the Kentucky Derby and Thoroughbred racing through its tours, exhibits, collections and educational programs. The museum greets approximately 210,000 visitors annually and resides next door to historic Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby.

How can people take part and enter the contest?

The Kentucky Derby Museum begins accepting entries for its hat contest on Sunday, May 3.

All entries must be hand delivered or postmarked

by June 1. Entries must be delivered or shipped in a box that covers and protects it completely. All entries must be accompanied with the official entry form, which can be found on the museum website, www.derbymuseum.org, or by contacting curator of collections Chris Goodlett at cgoodlett@derbymuseum.org. Goodlett can also answer any questions about the contest and exhibit. At this time, the museum cannot accept international entries. VT

A Trot Down Memory Lane

Located in the front of Churchill Downs, the Kentucky Derby Museum is a terrific introductory element for anyone visiting the world-famous racetrack. The museum’s President, Lynn Ashton, quotes the non-profit operation’s mission statement: “Our Mission is to engage, educate and excite everyone about the extraordinary experience that is the Kentucky Derby.”

films and TV shows leading up to Secretariat’s win in 1973.

Out & About

“Next year’s exhibit will pick up in the mid-seventies and come up to right now,” says Ashton. “It’s very interesting because Thoroughbred racing has a great tie with celebrities –other than just The Derby.”

BENNETT DUCKWORTH

Even on a Monday morning, guests ranging from local folks to international travellers are arriving. “We really have a very nice season,” says Ashton. “We start picking up in the middle of March and then we roll right through the fall.”

Started in 1985, the museum is celebrating thirty years right now - and I can say that it has grown dramatically since I last visited on a high school field trip. The place has figured out the experience it wants to provide its visitors through clever design. From the entrance where you can see a video wall of horses emerging from the starting gate –to a much grander video presentation at the end, there are so many displays of Derby artifacts and interactive setups along the way.

“When Colonel Matt Winn took over as president of Churchill Downs he was really the man who came up with all the traditions and made Derby as we know it today.” She goes on to explain the undeniable allure of visiting famous people and how many of them living in California, were invested in that state’s horseracing boom of the time. Bringing in the New York press helped expose the Derby’s growing popularity as well.

Matt Winn is honored at the museum, with his chair and jacket for all to see alongside other great contributors to the Kentucky Derby.

The recent unveiling of their new exhibit “Stars of the Stands,” which will be a growing feature over two years, contains various old black and white photographs along with relics associated with the celebrities or the popular entertainments they represented. There’s also a movie reel featuring clips from Derby-related P H O T O S B Y C H R I S H U M P H R E Y S | T H E V O I C E -T R I B U N E

Throughout the museum there are various attractions. Famous attire worn at the Derby is on display along with Derby hat design winners from boutiques and individuals. There’s a breakdown of Vantage points for people planning to attend the Derby, called “My Spot.” You can watch a classic race while acting as a track announcer and listen to your playback after. There’s even a section, which focuses on the blacksmithing of a horseshoe.

Racing history buffs should get something from the Warner L. Jones Jr. Time Machine – an archive station where you can review all past Derbies with video content of filmed races dating back to 1918. It was interesting to notice in the old footage, that there was no start gate in the oldest races. The museum still has The Downs’ first electric gate, which was in use from 1940 through 1977.

An interactive horseracing simulation is set up like an arcade game, where you can sit atop an artificial horseback –which gives guests an idea of how many actions are crucial for a jockey to succeed in a race. It’s unquestionably involving.

Dedications to all the triple-crown winners are in one of the wings along with an open spot - should there be another. As a matter of fact, a trophy for a future triple-crown winner is on display.

Right now, this year’s 22” tall 66 oz. Derby trophy is exhibited and guarded daily.

The highlight feature for guests is the film, “The Greatest Race” - an annually updated short documentary piece presented on a 360º screen in The Great Hall section of the museum, which plays every hour of operation. After the film has commenced, guests are offered the Historic Walking Tour, which is a half-hour exploration of The Downs.

The museum is continuing to provide an entertaining education for all its visitors. It’s a large contemporary exhibition of a grand old tradition, for which this city is undoubtedly proud. VT For more information, go to www.derbymuseum.org.

So when Louisville designer Jason Jennings was called in three years ago to update and modernize the home, he didn’t have trouble convincing the couple that what they needed on the walls was more, not less, horse references.

“They had a picture on the wall in the foyer that was kind of insignificant,” Jennings recalled. “But they also had all this horse memorabilia, so why not frame or mount it all and hang it?”

Edwards is currently part-owner of 14 horses, including four that he owns as part of a group with Rick Pitino. “We began talking about horses at a UofL donors’ function,” said Edwards, “and the next thing I knew I was a partner in Great Lou, which won at Santa Anita in March.”

born in Syracuse and came to Western Kentucky University on a swimming scholarship. His office, on the second floor, is a shrine, filled with signed photographs, basketballs and special edition Makers Mark bottles.

Given all these interests, you’d think Jennings wouldn’t have much to do besides organizing the pictures and hammering in the hooks.

But, he said, the couple wanted the home pulled together and made a little warmer, especially after Edwards’ two grown daughters went off to college.

Jennings unified the color palette along the lines the couple likes: blues, greens, browns, golds and grays. (In fact, their racing silks are either blue and white or blue and green.) Jennings also brought in a lot of comfortable soft brown furniture, much of it leather and suede, a subtle reference to horses’ saddles and bridles.

He had the walls of the foyer and dining room painted burnt orange and the den khaki, to provide some variety and depth to the open space as you enter the house.

He also introduced various tones of green – particularly in the curtains, bedding and floor coverings, from suppliers like Work the Metal, Scout, Colonial Design and Carpet Specialists – to reference the couple’s love of the outdoors.

“That’s why we moved here and why we built the house the way it is,” said Edwards. “The woods in the back, and a lot of windows facing the woods, letting the outside in and the inside out.”

On a clear day, you can almost hear the hoofbeats. VT

T

The Ow! Wagon

he Chow Wagon is here. In other words, state fair-lite is upon us. So we walked down to the waterfront to see what was new, what was old and what’s the enduring appeal of The Chow Wagon.

turkey legs, burgers and gyros.

Tastes IGOR GURYASHKIN

First up was the wood-fired pizza, and we got a pepperoni. Maybe it was the fact that we had just come through the gates at the time of opening on the first day – hence the oven may not have been hot enough – but the result was a little doughy and took an age to cook. The sauce was fine, the pepperoni a light portion. It was an inauspicious start, but perhaps early mid-afternoon jitters were the cause.

That early setback was countered with a quite nice rendition of bourbon chicken. A bed of rice was topped off with tender and succulent chicken that had been slow cooked with the aid of Evan Williams bourbon and soy sauce. It was wholesome, filling and a good value. But after the bourbon chicken came a letdown.

The “Steak on a Stick” was that letdown experience. It stared at me, and I stared back, and we both understood right there and then that it wasn’t going to be a happy marriage.

I expected something more, and by “more” I don’t mean in the metaphorical sense or the realm of taste (both of which were lacking), but literally more. When it comes to bang for the buck, this was the worst. Small, over seasoned and tough – it was lacking, to put it kindly.

Things got a little better with the staples, but that’s only because you knew there would be no surprises. The King’s Tater was fine, as was the cheese dip. It’s a long potato chip – what else do you expect? For those looking for other fare, the usual suspects are aplenty with

Without wanting to totally rip into The Chow Wagon, the atmosphere is great. The Kentucky Derby Festival works hard to ensure that. Live music at the far end of the grounds is a great compliment, and at night time, it’s special because of the backdrop of the river and bridge. But we’re here to talk about the food, so onto dessert.

The red velvet funnel cake was probably the most enjoyable thing to consume (a low bar, admittedly). The downside was seeing something of that color being arranged in that shape. A cartoon brain drizzled with creamy, milky colored icing. Get past that, and it’s fine, and what you totally expect: dough that’s been fried. It’s sweet, filling and washes away the disappointment of everything that came beforehand.

The Chow Wagon has a reverence to it, because nostalgia tastes better than reality. It’s the MSG of our imagination, and that makes the food that more palatable. But the reality is that it’s pretty much the same every year.

When you step through those gates you know what you’re going to get, and for some reason, people keep coming back. But here’s the thing: when you have a city that’s so proud of its food, why is this offering the one that so dominates year in and year out? Where are the great tacos, for example? Where are the food trucks that we see downtown and lap up so much?

If you want to eat your weight in childhood nostalgia and hydrogenated fats and corn syrup, go for it. But if you want to ring in Derby and the Kentucky Derby Festival, walk somewhere else – anywhere else – and enjoy that. VT The Chow Wagon is situated on the Waterfront and runs until May 1.

O

It’s That Time Again

verpriced parking, Jack Nicholson’s entourage, outrageous hotel rates, and beautiful Kentucky women dressed in their seasonal finest, strutting through the crowd at The Downs while some drunk guy in a seersucker suit with a Colonel Sanders moustache spills Mint Julep all over his white, patent-leather shoes.

Bachelor Behavior R. CHASE

If you’re a swinging bachelor in town for the event, I’ll bet you want to know where to find the most beautiful women in town. And whatever your tastes, your good old buddy Mr. Chase can act as a virtual concierge, your bachelor advocate.

For just this occasion, I’ve compiled a list of the local restaurants and bars from a single guy’s point of view.

Jeagermeister shots mixed with cheap, candy-flavored vodka, this place is for you. Fourth Street Live! is not so much a bar as a galaxy of little theme bars, strung together. From disco bowling to country music, you can find something you like. During Derby it turns into a conflagration of binge drinking mixed with fraternity machismo.

Unless you’re an avid fan of Tucker Max books, I would avoid the place altogether.

8-UP

8-up is a beautiful, classy establishment on the rooftop of the Hilton Garden Inn. If you’re into class, this is your place. The outside patio is immaculately decorated and the lounge inside just past the bar is dotted with professional women and men, draped in expensive clothing. The women are smart, classy, and beautiful in that unique, long-legged Kentucky way.

It’s tough to get a drink, but the bartenders are working furiously to make 10-ingredient cocktails with expensive vodkas or bourbon. Grey Goose is their house, and the list of bourbons is impressive.

It’s a friendly, open environment and don’t be surprised if you find yourself in a conversation or two with a pretty lady who has both read an actual book and remembers who Paul Newman was before he started making salad dressing.

SEINDENFAUDENS A generally sleepy bar on the edge of the Highlands, Seidenfauden’s is known for being the hottest retro hipster dance party on Saturday night.

It’s dead as a doornail until midnight, when the DJ’s start and the twenty-something, post-graduate girls come flooding in to dance to 80s pop music on vinyl and drink cheap tap beer out of plastic cups.

It’s a little cramped, and my friend Biz always asks, “Why do their bathrooms always smell like a tenement house?” But the upside is that the girls are always cute and friendly. Don’t expect much conversation though, since Eddie Grant will be playing full blast. I hope you like to dance.

ZANZABAR If you like your music loud and techno (and I know you do), then THIS is your place. With

For party dancing people they have a light and smoke show and the bands that play regularly in the earlier hours are actually good picks from a range of alt music for 30 and unders.

PHOENIX HILL

FOURTH STREET LIVE! If you enjoy your girls barely out of college dancing on a bar and doing

a big, sweaty, dance floor and a house DJ with a name so risqué I can’t actually print it here, Z-bar is the staple of ravers and dance-freaks of all kinds. And if your idea of “fun” is getting lung cancer from second-hand smoke, don’t forget to check out the back patio.

70

If you feel rock and roll ended when Whitesnake broke up, you’re gonna love it here.

Phoenix Hill has been the Louisville staple for rock bands and loud entertainment since I was wearing a school uniform at Scared Heart Academy. Women will be wearing acid-wash, cowboy boots and very big, blonde hair. They might even get into a fistfight or two. But man, it’s Derby.

We’re prepared for that sort of thing.

GERSTLE’S “We play both kinds of music here. Phish AND the Grateful Dead”.

Gerstle’s specializes in hippies and goodtimey jam band music. If you like the smell of patchouli and desperately need to dust off those tie-dyed Guatemalan sweatpants, go find a cute earthy girl to jam out with at this place in St. Matthews.

META A new avant-garde, super-hipster bar downtown that has a constant stream of semi-nude, sixties strip-tease movies playing on a wall behind the bar, Meta offers a cozy space, some decent music, and a 27-45 year-old crowd that bridges the gap between professional and unemployed. Expect a great mix of attractive women dressed down and ready to party. The cocktails are reasonably priced, served in actual glasses, and the girls are always social, and fun-loving.

These aren’t the only places in town, but they’re a damn good sampling of the Derby madness coming your way this week. And if you’re lucky enough, maybe one night out of the corner of your eye you might just spot one R. Chase, casually sipping bourbon in the corner and checking you out from the corner of his eye…

Enjoy your Derby. VT R. Chase is a local writer and surveyor of single life on the Bourbon Trail. Follow him on twitter at @Rchase.

King of Queens

Promoter Daniel Cole introduced his “Hard Candy” series seven years ago, and it has recently expanded beyond just Louisville, adding events in five other cities: Lexington, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Baltimore and Huntington, West Virginia. The current season is headlined by several drag queens that have competed on the hit TV show “RuPaul’s Drag Race.”

Who will win season 7 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race”? Who should win?

Arts & Entertainment PETER BERKOWITZ

I see Ginger Minj as the winner – she’s kind of the sure thing in my eyes. The show has definitely leaned towards fan favorites over the last few years, and she is very deserving in my eyes, just like Bianca Del Rio last year. She’s funny, (has) great stage presence, and anyone who calls themselves a glamour toad has to be appreciated.

My favorite, hands down, is Violet Chachki.

She’s the youngest queen on the show but has Peter’s Picks such a specific identity of what kind of aesthetic she wants (Bettie Paige and Dita Von Teese come to mind), and is so incredibly on-point with it. Her runways are consistently jaw dropping. She’s not nailing acting challenges just yet, but I know she has incredible performance elements that have yet to be seen on the show, like aerial stunts, etc.

a great Sunday Funday on the patio. Add drag queens into that, and it’s a memorable event in the making!

One of my all-time favorite gals, Delta Work, is the featured performer. She’s incredibly funny and so polished as a queen. Her celebrity impersonations are incredible, yet she still has her own identity as Delta outside that element. Also, two Entertainer of the Year titleholders will be with us: Trinity Taylor and Vanessa Demornay.

What will be different about this versus a night at a club?

I’ve gotten a lot of feedback from people who can’t do late night events like the “Hard Candy” series. They have job or family responsibilities, and I understand that. I’m really excited to offer a daytime event as an alternative and still offer the same high quality entertainment. VT For more information, visit www.facebook.com/HardCandyKY.

It’s incredibly hard for some queens like that to be given justice when the gals like Ginger, Bianca, who are incredible MCs, can improv in nearly every situation. I think if you’re looking for the next drag superstar, Violet just might be it.

Tattoo

How does booking shows work for you now – do you approach other cities or vice-versa?

Convention

In some instances, it’s been where I had a friend who managed a nightclub who had interest in having me bring entertainment to their venue.

Penny Tration in Cincinnati has been a great friend over the years – she was actually the first queen I ever booked at “Hard Candy” – so I love working with her at The Cabaret. It’s a similar situation with Cadillac Seville at The Bar Complex in Lexington.

May 15th - 17th 2015

I’ve also had a couple of markets like St. Louis and Huntington where I reached out because one of my favorite queens, Willam Belli, wanted to work that particular market. Willam had been burned by a venue in St. Louis last year for a Pride booking, and all the fans there were super disappointed. I was already doing a gig with her in Louisville, so we put together a pop-up show at this great spot called Attitudes. It was so successful that I’ve made St. Louis a regular city for the event series.

Kentucky International Convention Center

Same with West Virginia. It’s one of the very few states Willam had never performed in, so I reached out to Stonewall in Huntington and we did an event there. It was fantastic.

COME GET TATTOOED

Tell us about your new “Drag Brunch” series.

Well, it’s not a series just yet. Here’s to hoping, though! I worked in the past with a benefit drag brunch a couple years back, and it was so fun.

There’s such a desire for fun daytime events, and it opens up to a whole new crowd. We had people ranging from 21-75 in the audience.

VillainArts.com

The first event is going to be Sunday, May 31st at 8UP Elevated Drinkery and Kitchen. It’s one of the most gorgeous spots in Louisville and a perfect fit for this type of event: a great brunch that flows seamlessly into

KENTUCKY DERBY 141 The 141st running of the $2 million guaranteed Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands will be run Saturday, May 2. Each year 20 horses have the once-in-a-lifetime chance to run in the Kentucky Derby, and the fans enjoy once-in-alifetime celebrations. The Run for the Roses, the most famous two minutes in sports, starts, and some of the most beautiful horses in the world race by in a thunderous rush of hooves accompanied by the deafening roar of the crowd. The winning Thoroughbred, draped in a garland of 400 roses, senses that something special has happened. He raises his head and sniffs the springtime air. He knows, as does every spectator, that there is simply nothing like this – not anywhere.

pets of the week Dinah is a fun-loving 4-year-old Border Collie/ Lab mix. The staff is still learning all about her little quirks and personality traits. When you first meet her, she will be bursting with energy.

She might even grab a tennis ball and bring it to you, but you have to chase her to get it!

Once comfortable with you, Dinah settles down and transforms into the biggest snuggle bug on the planet. Dinah can’t be in a home with cats, and she would need a meet-and-greet with any dogs in the home. She appears to be house-trained and knows some cool tricks, like “sit” and “paw.” She is spayed, micro-chipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. Come meet Dinah at the Springhurst Feeders Supply adoption center, 9485 Brownsboro Road.

Boomer is a 9-year-old brown and orange tabby cat. She loves to lie in the sun and have her head scratched. She is extremely affectionate to her people and loves to snuggle. Boomer is front declawed and has never been an outdoor cat. She’s looking for a forever home where she can enjoy a view on a comfortable seat, play with toys, and get all the loving she wants. She’s spayed, microchipped and up-to-date on her vaccinations. Come meet her today at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Dixie Feeders Supply adoption center, 10948 Dixie Hwy.
