This week is our Daycation issue. I had every intention of excitedly exploring and sharing all of the entertaining and enjoyable summer activities our region has to offer. I had saved what I thought was from the a witty anecdote about growing up in one of Kentucky’s many small lake towns. My story really doesn’t seem that funny at the moment, and focusing on family fun doesn’t feel appropriate right now. Tonya Abeln This week, I am consumed with sadness, and The Voice-Tribune operates under a dark cloud of loss. As a reader of The Voice-Tribune, you have likely come to anticipate the lively musings our “Partyline” columnist Carla Sue Broecker. Carla Sue has worked at The Voice-Tribune, in some capacity, since she was a teenager. She has been the true soul of this magazine for decades. Since January, she has chronicled her travels around the world with her husband Brad for our enjoyment. It has been fascinating to experience various cultures through their lens and their humor. If you are lucky enough to have spent time in the presence of the Broeckers, you know that the fun always seems to find them and they are the most gifted storytellers – coveted dinner companions the world over. They returned from their world travels two weeks ago. They had so much content from their adventures that I asked if I could still continue to publish Carla Sue’s travel columns even though they returned stateside before we returned to her regular weekly society columns. She graciously agreed. Not long after welcoming them home, I received the devastating news that one of the Broecker’s daughters, Amy Taylor Broecker Kessler, had died at the young age of 52. Amy was a beloved part of our community and will be indescribably missed by many. I invite and encourage you to read her full obituary on page 17. Carla Sue Broecker’s “Partyline” column, will be noticeably missing as we mourn the passing of her daughter. We run obituaries every week in The Voice-Tribune, and I must admit, the process of publishing them has become something the staff here takes very seriously. It is a unique privilege for us to be able to memorialize your loved ones. Our readers invite us into their homes every week and we strive under most circumstances to bring a smile to your face. It’s an honor that some of you also invite us in during some of the most unfortunate yet important times as well. I have shed many tears editing our obituaries, often for people I don’t know. This week, the tears are in great abundance over the loss of one of The Voice-Tribune’s extended family members. Our thoughts and love are with The Broeckers.

Beauty ON THE Bay

A By Brent Owen

nytime someone of a certain generation thinks about a rural resort, it’s hard not to think of “Dirty Dancing.” And part of that is because the indelible image the Kellerman’s Resort left on audiences everywhere. That rural resort became the backdrop for one of the greatest coming-of-age stories in cinema history. It was the whimsical Catskills getaway where Baby Houseman and her family spent the summer of 1963. In Kentucky, that whimsical resort is Green Turtle Bay. It’s located in Western Kentucky, near Land Between the Lakes, sitting just outside the small tourist town of Grand Rivers (permanent population: 350 people). “We’re situated between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake,” Bill Gary IV says of the town. “And there’s a canal connecting the two lakes on the far side of town. So we’re flanked on three sides by water. We call ourselves ‘The Village Between the Lakes.’” Green Turtle Bay is a family-owned-and-operated establishment. Bill and his sister Vida, current operators, took over the resort from their father, Bill Gary III. The senior Bill bought the resort in 1984 when it was a struggling establishment known as the Park Inn. “It was in dire straits,” Bill IV relates. Vida came into the family business in 1986 while the younger Bill didn’t come on board for another decade. He’s now been there for over 20 years. The resort offers condos for rent, ranging in size from a single bedroom to four bedrooms. They cater to anyone from a solo traveler looking for peace and quiet to family excursions or a group of couples getting away for the weekend.

According to a quick Google search, visitor reviews have given Green Turtle Bay a consistent five-star rating. And while the resort provides five-star treatment, their reasonable prices may falsely suggest otherwise. Regardless of what you’re looking for, Green Turtle Bay has everything you need at a very affordable price. The staff is dedicated to giving travelers a reasonably priced getaway – so much so that they eschew mid-season price hikes on peak weekends. For example, this August, Earth will witness one of the most impressive solar eclipses of our collective lifetime, and nearby Hopkinsville has been pinpointed by experts as the best place to view the phenomenon on Earth. Tourists will be flooding into the region – both science professionals and amateur stargazers alike. Rooms will be in high demand and will undoubtedly sell out. However, in lieu of a premium price hike to profit off of demand, Gary IV says Green Turtle Bay is going to charge their normal weekend rates and “I guess we’ll see what happens,” he says. Now, what’s going on at the resort when it isn’t the focal point of a massive celestial event? The biggest attraction, according to Gary IV, is the water. “People just love having access to the water,” he emphasizes. “They truly love it,” which is why they offer single and two level pontoon rentals, as well as tri-toons, so you and your party can spend as much time on the water as you’d like. They have all the necessary amenities to entertain for family fun, a friendly getaway or a romantic rendezvous, including restaurants and an indoor swimming pool, and for those needing to kick back even more, they offer a full spa. The spa includes massages (single and couples), manicures, pedicures and facials. When deciding on a weekend getaway, the most important factor is not entertainment or even lodging; the first question always comes down to food. What are the restaurants like? Well, with Green Turtle Bay, there are currently two on premise. They have Docker’s Grill, open morning through mid-afternoon, catering to breakfast and lunch crowds as they’re going out for or coming in from a day on the water. If you would like something

Eclipse

TIPS & TRICKS

On August 21 a solar eclipse will happen over Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Determined by experts in the field, Western Kentucky, more specifically Hopkinsville, will be the best place on Earth to view it. To find out exactly what that means, I thought I would call an expert. Enter: Dr. Bruce Perry, who, now retired, was a professor in the Department of Teacher Education, more specifically head of the Science Department at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I gave him a call to make a little sense of all of this eclipse talk. The Voice-Tribune: So let’s start with the eclipse. Perry: OK. So the sun, the moon and the Earth are all in a single line with one another. In a solar eclipse, the moon is between the Earth and the sun. In a lunar eclipse, the Earth is between the sun and the moon. Now, light moves in a straight line, which means the shadow behind it also moves in a straight line, as well. So when the moon gets in the path of the sun’s lights, so will its shadow. V-T: So what does Hopkinsville and Western Kentucky have to do with all of this? Perry: Well, the shadow of the moon on the surface of the Earth, which is what we’re going to get in a solar eclipse, it’s going to pass diagonally across the United States. It’s going start in Oregon and move its way across to Georgia and the Carolinas before heading out to sea. So as the shadow moves, it’s over Hopkinsville when the moon, the Earth and the sun will be lined up perfectly. And it’s there where the moon will fully block the sun for over two minutes. V-T: What can we expect during a solar eclipse? Perry: If you’ve never seen a solar eclipse, it’s pretty spooky. The birds get quiet because they think it’s night time. You can see stars overhead because it’s dark enough to see past the sun – and you see the stars you can’t see when the sun is out. And it’ll probably cool down by about 15 degrees over the course of two minutes. It’s a very strange experience. But I can’t emphasize this enough: Never stare at the sun without eye protection, not even during an eclipse. They will be staring at the moon, which is right in front of the sun. And then it moves. I’m reminded of a classic song called “Blinded by the Light.” V-T: Do you know what time it will happen? Perry: It usually happens around noon solar time, which is when the sun is at its highest point in the sky. And that is usually around 11 a.m. local time. But solar time doesn’t always follow our clocks, so it could be 11:20 or 11:30.

Writer’s note: Dr. Perry recommends the best places to view the eclipse is by the water, on a golf course or anywhere where trees won’t obstruct your view.

more high-end for dinner, Green Turtle Bay offers a private Yacht Club, which all guests have full access to if they choose. Opening in June will be a third restaurant called The Thirsty Turtle. The plan is to offer visitors a more casual dining and drink experience than The Yacht Club. Green Turtle Bay has everything you need for a great weekend away (except maybe for those “Dirty Dancing” dance classes). But if you need more, you can drive a short mile into the center of town where there are even more options for entertainment, one of which is the world-renowned Patti’s 1880’s Settlement. An award-winning restaurant where you can order fillet mignon, prime rib or Patti’s famous 2-inch pork chop. People come from all over the country to eat there. They serve over 350,000 people a year, which is even more impressive when you consider that only 350 of those actually live in Grand Rivers. On the other side of town, you’ll find Light House Landing, a sailboat marina. There are small local shops you can wander through like Grand Rivers Antiques or So Cool, and they even have a small community theater. “I hear all of the time from guests about how nice everyone here is,” Gary IV says. “The fact is, we’re such a tourist town, everyone here is friendly. The first thing out of anyone’s mouth is, ‘How can I help you?’ That’s just Grand Rivers – not just Green Turtle Bay – it’s all over town. It’s such a friendly, nice place to be.” Gary IV admits that as of now, their guests lean more toward families and retirees. However, the town recently voted themselves wet, which makes it legal to sell alcohol, thus expanding their options for building a nightlife to draw in a younger demographic. “Now that we’re wet,” he says, “I think we’ll definitely start seeing younger people take notice of what we have going on here. It’s pretty great. It really is.” While at Green Turtle Bay, you might not see Jennifer Grey practicing her dance moves in the water or catch Patrick Swayze twirling in a tight black tank top, but you will definitely have the time of your life.

Kicking It in the Kingdom By Mariah Kline

ince its revitalization in 2014, the operators of Kentucky Kingdom have added a great deal of exciting new attractions. On Friday, May 26, Louisvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s local amusement park will reopen seven days a week and officially kick off their summer season. This year, they have more thrills than ever, plus new kid-friendly rides and ways to make your day at the park an educational experience.

For thrill seekers, Kentucky Kingdom has no shortage of exhilarating coasters and rides. For 2017, they have revealed a new looping coaster called Eye of the Storm, which stands 73 feet tall and takes riders backward and forward on 360-degree loops. Last year, they introduced Storm Chaser, which received second place in the Best New Ride for 2016 by Amusement Today and second place in USA Today’s Best New Theme Park Attraction. Other thrilling rides include the gravity-defying T3: Terror to the Third Power, wooden roller coaster Thunder Run, swinging pendulum Cyclos and more. For small children who aren’t ready for coasters, there’s King Louie’s Playland, an exciting kids’ area with 14 attractions that parents can ride along with their children. New in 2017, the park is introducing Loony Balloony and Rowdy Racers. Loony Balloony takes riders on a mini hot air balloon ride, and Rowdy Racers takes children on a whipstyle driving course. Kentucky Kingdom also offers Angry Birds: The Ride, an exclusive 5D cinema experience that makes riders feel as if they’re in the movie. While a day at the Kingdom is guaranteed to be full of fun and frills, parents can also use it as an opportunity for an education daycation. The park recently introduced the Interactive Gardens, which allows guests to learn more about the thousands of flowers, trees, shrubs and other plants that live on the 63-acre property. Many of the plants now have a small plaque near them with a QR code that can be scanned with your smartphone. The code will reveal interesting facts about each plant and will even tell you how you can grow it at home. Another nature-related activity is Sea Lion Splash, a live show where audience members watch rescued sea lions playfully perform and learn more about the animals. “We have five sea lions here who were rescued and couldn’t be re-released into the wild,” explains Julie Johnson, Kentucky Kingdom’s director of sales and marketing. “This

show is educational and entertaining. Guests get to watch them do some tricks and learn more about the environmental issues that affect the world’s sea lion population.” Guests can also see an abridged version of “Kentucky Show,” a multimedia presentation that is regularly shown at the Kentucky Science Center. The show gives viewers a glimpse of the rich history and culture of our great state and is narrated by actress Ashley Judd. No day at Kentucky Kingdom is complete without a visit to the water park. In case you haven’t visited since the park reopened in 2014, Hurricane Bay is now double its previous size. It features two wave pools, a lazy river, a kid-friendly area and several slides for hours of fun. The water park is home to Deep Water Dive, the world’s tallest body slide that features a 12-story drop at an astounding 70-degree angle. They have also added a special attraction for the adults this year: a 4,000-square-foot craft beer garden. The park has countless hours of entertainment in store, and their season pass lets guest revisit all summer long for just $59.95. This pass includes free parking, $1 drinks and 20 percent off all food and merchandise. They also offer an exceptional deal for out-of-state guests. For $29.95, these visitors receive two consecutive days of admission plus unlimited free drinks. While this will only be its fourth summer since reopening to the public, the staff at Kentucky Kingdom can’t wait to begin another season. “We’re really pleased to be back,” says Johnson. “We have a great management team here and we operate under local ownership. Our CEO Ed Hart and his partners have some very big plans for the future, and we’re excited to see what’s in store.” The park has received a great deal of appreciation in recent years, including recognition from the Los Angeles Times, CNN and the Travel Channel. With new rides and new excitement, there’s no better time to pay a visit and experience the fun for yourself. VT

n the age of instant gratification, anything can be ordered and received in a few days, in some cases on the same day. Ebooks especially have changed the way consumers interact with and shop for books. Major book chains have gone out of business with the competition of retailers like Amazon, which started in 1994 as an online bookstore. Though Louisville’s locally owned used bookstores may have dwindled from about 20 to six over the years, the incomparable magic of browsing the shelves of secondhand books is very much alive at A Reader’s Corner.

Cozy Convenience In 1997, owners Tim and Judy Fout opened A Reader’s Corner in St. Matthews before moving to their current location on Frankfort Avenue. It was Tim’s love of books, especially history and theology, that led to the conclusion that books could be their livelihood. “He’s always loved used books,” Judy recalls. “Any time we’ve gone on vacation, used books have always been on our route.” They liked how economical used books were and how they were easily acquired, but after about a year in business, they discovered it was not enough to only have secondhand stock. “Many people would come in and say they want the latest book, and we couldn’t say we could get it because we didn’t have a new book account.” Since then, they have stocked partially with new titles, some of which are already 30 percent off, and they are able to special order most books for 20 percent off the list price. But it’s really the 50,000 used books that bring book lovers from all over Louisville to this literary hub, and Judy enjoys getting to know the faces and book preferences of her customers. “We love the conversations,” she says. “We’ve actually had a couple get engaged in the bookstore. It’s like a community meeting place.” Being around so many other local business on Frankfort Avenue inspires them to engage with the community as well. One

way they give back is by doing a children’s storytime where they read themed stories, do crafts, enjoy juice and cookies and even provide books for the kids to take home. The monthly Frankfort Avenue Trolley Hop also allows them to meet the locals, and though the event gets them lots of foot traffic, the challenges of a small business in the internet age still linger. “It’s just very competitive and people are looking for convenience more and more,” she explains. “It used to be you didn’t get everything from Amazon but now you can get everything.” But that threat doesn’t dampen their hope that people will come back to the physical book. “So many people say they’ll walk into our store and find something they didn’t even know existed, or a book that they had read as a kid they had completely forgotten about.” A good bookstore, much like a great book, is a portal to another dimension that you didn’t know existed. And the hope of finding something new, or something old in this case, keeps book lovers coming back to A Reader’s Corner time after time.

We just want to do everything we can to get the word out and get the community behind the children’s hospital. Again, when our kids in the community need medical help, we couldn’t be more lucky

Lives are saved and improved there every single day.” And the work that goes on at the hospital is far greater and more expansive than that which is highlighted at Bourbon & Bowties. Though it’s a magnificent event for an extraordinary cause, Christensen emphasizes there’s always work to be done: “Sometimes life gets moving very quickly and I think we all have a tendency to take things like this for granted. Anything we can do to position the children’s hospital to provide the best possible care is something we absolutely want to do. We’d like to make sure this children’s hospital continues to be one of the best in the country. And that takes funding support.” VT

KENTUCKYONE HEALTH ANNOUNCES LEADERSHIP TRANSITION

Crossroads, a statewide public radio collaboration that examines Pennsylvania’s changing urban landscape.

KentuckyOne Health, a leading health system committed to bringing wellness, healing and hope to the Commonwealth of Kentucky, recently announced a change to their leadership structure. Ruth Brinkley has made the decision to leave her role as president and CEO effective July 14. Chuck Neumann, current interim president of University of Louisville Hospital, will assume the role of interim president and CEO of KentuckyOne Health. Brinkley will work with Neumann in an advisory role through mid-September.

“I’m proud to be joining a team of reporters known for dogged, aggressive and fair reporting in Louisville and across the state of Kentucky,” Klibanoff said. “Now, more than ever, we need journalists willing to dig a little deeper to find the story, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to do just that with KyCIR.”

“Ruth has led KentuckyOne Health since the very beginning in 2012. As CEO, she developed the statewide structure for a complex organization and established the vision and purpose for our path forward,” said Richard Schultz, chair of the KentuckyOne Health Board of Directors. “As we move into the next evolution of our healthcare system, I am excited for her as she also enters the next phase of her life and career. I would like to thank Ruth for her dedication, spirit and commitment to the employees and physicians of KentuckyOne Health, our board of directors, our communities and most importantly, our patients.” Chuck Neumann brings more than 40 years of healthcare and management experience to KentuckyOne Health, guiding integrated health systems through successful transitions of operations, all while maintaining a focus on the priorities of the organization: its patients, its employees and its physicians. He currently serves as interim president of University of Louisville Hospital and has previously announced that he will leave the role when operation of ULH and James Graham Brown Cancer Center transitions to University Medical Center on July 1. “It has been an honor and privilege to serve as president and CEO of KentuckyOne Health since 2012,” said Ruth Brinkley. “While I’m leaving the organization, I will continue my professional life through mentoring and developing leaders for success in executive management and board of director roles, and other leadership positions. I will also devote time to supporting organizations in their strategic growth and development through my service as a healthcare executive and as a board member. These activities will continue to receive my professional attention, my time and my passion.” More information on the long-term leadership structure of KentuckyOne Health will be provided throughout the transition of care, announced on May 12. KENTUCKY CENTER FOR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTING HIRES ELEANOR KLIBANOFF Louisville Public Media is pleased to announce it has hired Eleanor Klibanoff to join the Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting (KyCIR). Klibanoff currently reports for WPSU and Keystone

Klibanoff recently covered lead paint poisoning issues, examined immigration across Pennsylvania and reported on infrastructure in crumbling cities. She joins a KyCIR team focused on government, criminal justice, higher education and business, and how people interact with those institutions in daily life. “Eleanor is a dynamic reporter with a strong sense of journalistic mission,” said Brendan McCarthy, KyCIR’s managing editor. “She has a knack for tackling tough issues and telling great stories. We are excited to have her on the team.” Klibanoff previously worked as a Kroc Fellow at National Public Radio. There, she reported for NPR’s global health blog and “Weekend Edition,” worked for the national desk and at KCUR in Kansas City. “This era of ‘fake news’ and misplaced trust demands accountability in all facets of public life, and Eleanor practices that in her reporting and storytelling,” said Louisville Public Media Executive Editor Stephen George. “She approaches stories with a rare mix of toughness and grace. I’m thrilled to welcome her to the team.” Klibanoff has reported from Nicaragua and El Salvador. Her byline has appeared in Atlanta Magazine, The Nicaragua Dispatch and Radio Free Europe. She grew up in Philadelphia and Atlanta, and graduated from George Washington University. She starts June 26. WHITEHALL’S SUMMER CELEBRATION TO HONOR SANDRA FRAZIER Whitehall House & Gardens is pleased to announce that it will honor Sandra Frazier at its seventh annual Summer Celebration on Friday, June 9, 2017, at its historic mansion at 3110 Lexington Road. The festivities will begin at 6:30 p.m. with cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and a silent auction in the formal garden; guests will also enjoy elegant dining, a live auction and a special commemorative presentation to Ms. Frazier under a tent on Whitehall’s garden terrace. Individual tickets to the Summer Celebration are $200 per person. Reserved tables of eight are also available for $1,600 per table. Tickets may be purchased by calling Whitehall at 502.897.2944 or email at whitehall@historichomes. org. American Express, Discover, MasterCard and Visa are

accepted. Sponsors of this year’s event include the Glenview Trust Company, Brown-Forman Corporation, Sterling G. Thompson Company, Yum! Brands Foundation, Bittners, Central Bank, Chase, Fifth Third Bank, Highland Cleaners, Kentucky Select Properties, LG&E/KU, and Stites and Harbison. Proceeds from the Summer Celebration benefit Whitehall House & Gardens, a historic home owned and operated by the not-for-profit Historic Homes Foundation. The mansion began its life in the mid-1850s as an Italianate farmhouse. After extensive renovations in 1908, the house was transformed into the Classical Greek Revival-style mansion known today as Whitehall. Its collection features original gaslight fixtures and French and American antiques. Guided tours are offered Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. At just under 10 acres, Whitehall’s gardens have become the primary focus of its educational outreach, offering unique opportunities for both the amateur and professional horticulturalist. Throughout the year, the public is invited to participate in workshops, lectures and tours – all inspired by Whitehall’s special collection of trees and plants. A small but ever-growing arboretum features over 200 trees, including a rare specimen collection that has become an important resource for propagation of interesting species. Whitehall’s woodland garden, a Victorian stumpery nestled in a wooded corner of the grounds, presents a regionally unprecedented collection of ferns and other woodland plants. Not only a popular tour destination for gardens clubs and other horticultural groups, the garden has received national recognition as an official display garden of the Hardy Fern Foundation. The gardens are open to the public free of charge from sunup to sundown seven days per week all 12 months of the year. LOUCITY PARTS WAYS WITH SEAN RUSSELL Louisville City FC and Sean Russell, a first-year defender/ midfielder, have mutually agreed to terminate their contract, the club announced Saturday. The 23-year-old was announced as a LouCity signing in January after playing two seasons with League of Ireland First Division winner Limerick FC. Russell was awaiting his LouCity debut through seven games. “He found it hard to settle here and requested a release,” said LouCity coach James O’Connor, a fellow Irishman. “It’s our understanding he’ll look for other opportunities closer to home. We wish Sean the best with his future and thank him for his time at Louisville City.” Russell’s departure brings LouCity’s roster to 20 players.

end the way anyone associated with the program wanted it to. The Cardinals went from College Football Playoff contender to losers of three straight as quickly as Jackson changes direction in the open field.

As far as basketball is concerned, Rick Pitino would love get the bad taste of the past 24 months out of everyone’s mouths with another run to the Final Four.

more year, the Cardinals figure to begin the 2017-18 season ranked somewhere in the nation’s top 10. If UofL is able to finish that campaign in San Antonio, it would go a long way toward erasing the painful memories of last season’s second round exit, the 2016 NCAA tournament appearance that didn’t happen and all the reasons why that self-imposed postseason ban was put into effect. The months ahead are enormous for three of UofL’s most well-known faces. Not because their jobs are on the line but because they have the potential to significantly improve their legacies. There’s pressure in that. VT

SPOTLIGHT

Zoofari!: One Wild Night

On June 10, the Louisville Zoo will host the 37th edition of Zoofari!: One Wild Night. A fundraiser for the important programs conducted by the Zoo, the event is always an exciting affair, and to learn more about this year’s event, we talked to Media Relations Manager Kyle Shepherd.

What is Zoofari!: One Wild Night? Zoofari!, now in its 37th year, is the Zoo’s largest annual fundraising event produced by The Friends of the Zoo, a 100 percent volunteer-based nonprofit organization whose mission is to “raise funds to protect a legacy.” What can guests expect at the event? Zoofari! is an opportunity to get “up close and personal” with the Zoo’s animals while also enjoying a gourmet sit-down dinner, unique animal encounters, themed cocktails, silent and live auctions, music, dancing and the company of friends and colleagues from around the community. Zoofari! 2017 is presented by Brown-Forman. Why is the event important for the Louisville Zoo and the greater community? Zoos are a place to gather to observe animals and spend time with loved ones, creating memories to last a lifetime. Accredited zoos, like your Louisville Zoo, are also leaders in animal welfare and species survival. Collectively, zoos across the United States offer compelling animal encounters and science and conservation to over 12 million students and 183 million people each year and stand in solidarity to protect habitats and animals worldwide. Zoofari! is important to the community and region because funds raised will directly

M A Y 2 5 , 2 0 1 7 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

TVT.indd 46

support the Louisville Zoo’s mission of “bettering the bond between people and our planet” through award-winning exhibitions and education programs. Event proceeds will support exhibit projects, animal welfare and enrichment, species conservation and science education for people of all ages. Funds also help the zoo engage guests with wonderful nose-to-nose, beak and trunk encounters that will create memories and inspire action. How has the event grown over the years? There have been a number of changes in Zoofari! over the years. Recognizing there were limitations on how many guests could attend a seated dinner on-site at the Zoo, Friends of the Zoo implemented a tiered ticketing structure and introduced a “Mix and Mingle” cocktail reception ticket several years ago. The “Mix and Mingle” ticket is an opportunity for guests to enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres before joining the dinner guests for dancing and a silent auction in the Zoo’s Oasis Field. This tiered structure grew attendance from 400 guests to about 650 guests, and there is still room to grow! The event is also an opportunity for Louisville Zoo staff to partner with colleagues from the Columbus Zoo, who will be sharing some of their animal ambassadors with our dinner guests. The cheetah and its companion Labrador retriever have become a Zoofari! favorite.

Why is the Louisville Zoo such an important institution in our community? The Louisville Zoo has been bringing the community together since 1969, providing a place for people to escape from the stress of daily life, have fun and be a part of global wildlife conservation efforts. There has never been a more important time in human history for the mission of a modern accredited zoo than here and now. The hustle and bustle of daily life has taken the forefront in our lives while our connection to the environment and each other has waned. The presence of zoos and the connections they provide to the natural world, our communities and each other has become even more imperative than ever before. Is it too late to get tickets? It is not too late to get tickets for Zoofari!: One Wild Night. They are available by visiting eventbrite.com/e/zoofari-2017one-wild-night-tickets-31907342721. VT

The Diamond Difference By Mariah Kline | Beauty

he Fountain of Youth may be just a myth, but thanks to the evolution of science and technology, there are now more options than ever for people who want to avoid the signs of aging. But for those who don’t necessarily want plastic surgery or facial injections, there aren’t as many choices that will show legitimate results. Fortunately, there is a line of skincare products that can make a significant difference, and it’s available right here in the 502. Natura Bisse is a high-end skincare line created in Barcelona, Spain, that is now known worldwide for delivering serious anti-aging results. They have won highly coveted awards from Vogue, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar and more. Well known (and gorgeous) faces such as Beyoncé and Elle Macpherson have attested to the brand’s effects and swear by them. Rodes For Him For Her is the only

M A Y 2 5 , 2 0 1 7 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

retailer in the area that carries Natura Bisse’s Diamond Collection, and they host exclusive facial events for those who want to see the results for themselves. Their next event is taking place on May 24 and 25. Each facial appointment lasts one hour and is free with the purchase of a Natura Bisse product. Before they begin, an esthetician will consult with the client to discuss their skin concerns and needs. The esthetician will then choose the appropriate NB products to use and gear the facial toward those concerns. The facials take place in the upstairs of Rodes and off of the sales floor to ensure maximum comfort and privacy. After the facial, clients will work with Nanette Wagner, one of Rodes’ style advisors and resident skincare expert, to choose the product or products from their facial that they want to continue using. So what makes Natura Bisse so amazing and effective? “I managed cosmetics at a department store for 17 years, but in all of that time, I never saw anything like this before,” says Wagner. “Nearly every single person I’ve sold this brand to has come back to buy it again.” NB has used scientific research in the field of genomes and preventative

biomedicine and implemented these advances into their cosmetics. While most of the products do take a couple of weeks to yield results, Wagner says those who use the Diamond Ice Lift and the Glyco Extreme Peel see results almost instantly. “The Ice Lift is a great face mask that you can peel away,” she explains. “It diminishes lines and puffiness, and it’s perfect for people who travel a lot or feel that their skin is stressed out. These products are truly unbelievable, and you really need to experience it to appreciate it.” NB makes regimens for all skin types, and they carry everything from serums and moisturizers to eye and lip creams. Most of the regimens are designed with mature skin in mind, but they can still be effective for younger clients who want to get ahead of aging skin. Wagner also recommends Natura Bisse for those who receive Botox or other injections and want to prolong the effects of them. Those who aren’t able to attend Rodes’ facial event can still visit the store at any time to learn more and consult with Wagner about which items will suit their needs. While defying time and gravity may be impossible, the perfect skincare routine doesn’t have to be. VT

Pedal into Adventure

By Mariah Kline | Health and Wellness

icycle riding is known as a great form of exercise, but most cyclists agree that riding in a park or around one’s neighborhood can become a little mundane. For those who want to up their game and try something different while staying active this summer, mountain biking can make for a great alternative. And what better place to get started than a large climate-controlled park with tracks for all skill levels?

PHOTOS BY MARIAH KLINE

TVT.indd 49

The Mega Bike Park at the Louisville Mega Caverns is the world’s only underground bike park. The park is divided into different areas based on difficulty level and maintains a cool 60 degree temperature year round. The Caverns offer rental bikes and helmets, and their all-day pass lets guests thoroughly explore the large area. The bike park takes up over 320,000 square feet and includes over 45 trails. A variety of curves, jumps and challenges makes up each course, which can be enjoyed by both children and adults. Anyone over the age of 7 can participate, and the courses are broken down for beginner, intermediate and advanced bikers. “Anyone who likes being on a bike can enjoy a day here even if it may not seem like their thing,” says Marketing Manager Jeremy Priddy. For experienced mountain bikers, the staff recommends bringing your own gear since the rental equipment is first come, first served. The trails can become muddy in the summer due to humidity, but they are maintained full time by park managers, who consistently work to dry out and sustain the course. Staff members are also available to answer any biking related questions and help you navigate (it is a very large cave, after all). For those who want to go at a slower pace but still experience biking underground, they also offer an electric bike tour, which gives

guests a behind-the-scenes look at every part of the cavern. These guided tours let guests pedal on an electric bike while exploring and learning more about the cavern’s history and many uses. Since the cavern used to serve as a limestone mine and later a fallout shelter, its fascinating background will entertain as you pedal. Other ways to spend the day at the Cavern include zip lining and their Mega Quest aerial rope course. The Mega Zips have six underground ziplines, a racing zip and challenge bridges to push guests to the limit as they fly throughout the Cavern. The Mega Quest has a series of 76 rope climbing challenges to test the endurance and skill of participants. Anyone over the age of 7 who weighs at least 55 pounds can do the Mega Zips, and anyone over the age of 5 who stands at least 52 inches tall can take on the Mega Quest. The exciting activities offered by the Mega Caverns give visitors the chance to get their heart rate up and have an unbelievable underground adventure. And since they have a massive amount of space to work with, there is a lot to look forward to in the future. “Of the 100 total acres we have, we’ve only developed about 10 percent of it,” says Priddy. “So we have a lot of room to grow, and we’re looking forward to expanding and seeing what other exciting things we can do here.” VT

h c n u r B r o f s Patio

Best

this Spring By Minda Honey | Out and About

ello, spring! Spring time in Louisville is here and gone before you know it. To fully enjoy these blissful few weeks of warm weather without the oppressive humidity – grab your sunnies and get to brunch on one of the best patios in the city.

River House

THE RIVER Two words: Sunday Funday. The River House just doubled their patio to 8,000 square feet. Not only do you get a great view of the river but you can walk down to a grassy area and chill with friends in Adirondack chairs around a fire pit. Brunch goes until 4 p.m., so take your time getting out of bed. Plus, there’s a full outdoor bar on the Levee end of the patio. SIP ON: Back Porch Tea – Knob Creek rye, Regatta ginger beer and lime. NOSH ON: Chef Varanese’s creativity is on full display during brunch. You have the option of ordering off their special brunch menu or their all-day menu. Your server will start you off with a small cast iron pan of their sugar crusted corn bread. The house-made deviled eggs topped with cured salmon are a must. The Southern fried quail legs are a play on a proper Southern supper and the Southern French toast – topped with caramelized bananas, toasted pecans and whipped cream – will have you feeling like you ate dessert for breakfast. For seafood lovers, there’s the Maker’s 46 smoked salmon Benedict, and land lovers can indulge in the beef tenderloin eggs Benedict. Win-win.

LouVino

MIDDLETOWN The undeniable jewel of LouVino’s brunch is the champagne bar. Get a group of besties together to partake in your special bubbly concoction. Order a flute of rosé, prosecco or champagne, then add the juice of your choice – flavors rotate but there was pineapple, strawberry-basil and, of course, orange when I went. Then spice it up with a dash of cayenne or crushed basil or strawberries or nutmeg – so many options! After your mimosa is mixed, head back out to the patio and enjoy! SIP ON: Get the bubbly bar NOSH ON: The pancake tacos and BLT are among their most popular brunch dishes. I went with the general manager’s favorite, the maple eggs Benedict – soft poached eggs, grit cakes, country ham and spiced maple hollandaise sauce. The maple is subtle, not overpowering or too sweet. Just right.

Somewhere

HIGHLANDS This is the brunch spot for you if you stayed in on Saturday night and are looking for a high-energy, lively Sunday morning brunch. The last Sunday of every month, they host a drag brunch. Bask in the full glory of the sun out on the patio or grab a tall table near the garage doors to sit in the shade. SIP ON: $2 mimosas or $15 for a pitcher; $5 bloody Marys NOSH ON: Chef Cecilia is from a small town outside of Puerto Vallarta, and she’s brought those flavors to Somewhere’s brunch menu. If you want the breakfast empanadas – chicken-filled, topped with egg, drizzled with poblano cream and fresco cheese – you’d better get there early because they go fast. The chilaquiles – house-made tortillas topped with chorizo, salsa verde and two eggs – is a mountain of yum. Pickled red cabbage and creamy avocado play nice with the heat from the chorizo.

Red Barn Kitchen LYNDON

With limited brunch offerings in the area, Red Barn Kitchen’s new brunch was a welcome addition to the lineup. Grab a chair at their outdoor bar or snag a seat at a table under a red patio umbrella. SIP ON: $1 mimosas, $4 bloody Marys NOSH ON: If your stomach is roaring for sustenance, order the fried chicken and waffles – half a chicken, corn waffles, bourbon maple syrup, spiked honey and pickles. The chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, just as it should be. And while you’re at it, order a Hillbilly Hash for the table — pulled pork, caramelized onion, poached egg, pickled onion and jalapeño relish — because you can’t go to a barbecue joint and not order the barbecue!

Finn’s Southern Kitchen

GERMANTOWN Spend some casual time with your neighbors on the patio at Finn’s. String lights, festive striped umbrellas and picnic tables give their patio a fun, communal vibe. Kentucky crooner Brent Mathis will be providing music every Sunday. Owner Steve Clements also has plans to partner with other artists during the warm-weather months ahead. SIP ON: 2-for-1 bloody Marys and mimosas NOSH ON: Bite into a little Louisville legacy and order the Hot Brown – turkey, bacon, tomato and house mornay on an English muffin. Or go coastal with everyone’s Cali favorite: avocado toast with egg, shaved radish and micro herb. The avocado toast is listed as a starter but there is definitely enough there to make a meal of it. The toast is so thick and fluffy – a total dream. And Finn’s gets that perfect, crispy edge on their fried eggs.

The Hub

CLIFTON The Hub just spruced up their patio and it’s perfect for getting your day drink on with a few friends. Sit at the counter-height seating that faces the sidewalk if you’re the people-watching type. Even if you can’t grab a table out on the patio, The Hub rolls up their garage doors on nice days so you can still indulge in some fresh air. SIP ON: $1 mimosas, $5 bloody Marys; non-drinkers will love the $5 Brazilian lemonade NOSH ON: Went too hard on Saturday night? Nurse your hangover with The Weekender – two eggs, house bacon, house breakfast sausage, roasted potatoes and two pancakes. I went with the breakfast nachos – Chipotle beer cheese, breakfast sausage, tomato, cilantro, green onions and a sunny side up egg. If runny yolks aren’t your thing, they’re happy to scramble the eggs into your nachos (but I recommend ordering that YOLK!). The creamy beer cheese and fresh tomatoes balance out the hint of spice in the sausage.

A Home with Heart By Tonya Abeln | Prestigious Properties

hen Sean and Jamie Hancock built their home in Shakes Run seven years ago, they did so with an expanded family in mind, hoping to eventually give their 6-month-old a sibling. When her husband first took her to the site of construction, Jamie admits some hesitation. “Shakes Run was a new neighborhood at the time and I had a fear that it would be homogeneous. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Our children have had the benefit of being surrounded with so much wonderful diversity here, and every home in the neighborhood is unique with its own distinct character.”

Once the location was settled, the Hancocks got down to the business of choosing the specifications of their home and put their full trust in Stan Humphrey Construction Company. “Besides building a completely reputable business over the past 25 years, the Humphreys have been close family friends for years. He gives the same level of attention and care to every client, but the relationship worked really well for me because his son, Ryan, made sure I stayed within budget of the project because, well, he knows how I can be,” Jamie offers with a laugh. Humphrey helped them pull off their dream home with high ceilings, custom millwork and an exterior accented with European copper gutters. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the eat-in kitchen that opens to a cozy hearth room with a fireplace. Jamie infused some of her own personal style into the interior decor of the house. “It is always important to me to be on trend without necessarily looking trendy,” she says, and the same is true of her home. Polished and sophisticated with subtle use of color, the timeless interior transcends a label. Jamie is constantly updating and sources accessories from locally owned interior design companies so she is able to change a room quickly and easily. The couple recently spared no expense in finishing the lower level of the house with a large media room, a guest bedroom, full bathroom and a custom wet bar complete with herringbone inlay brick floors and a built in kegerator. In that spirit of change, now that they have outfitted and updated the house to perfection, they know their custom-built home will be ideal for another family. With their two boys nearing the age of afterschool activities, the Hancocks are preparing to move on to a home in their school neighborhood and have listed their house with Tommy Arnold of Aspire Real Estate Group. Jamie shares, “What I have loved the most about this house is that we are only minutes from some of the best restaurants in town and I could easily and quickly be downtown for work but I could come home to a large yard and the tranquil rolling hills of Kentucky. It will be very difficult for us to find a house that lives up to what this home provided for our family.” VT

“tick, tick…BOOM!” Exploding onto Louisville’s Theatre Scene By Minda Honey | Arts & Entertainment

few weeks ago, I paid a visit to Acting Against Cancer’s new black box theatre at ArtSpace during a rehearsal for their upcoming production of rock musical “tick, tick… BOOM!” by Jonathan Larson. It is the only other musical by Larson, whose preeminent work is a little show you may have heard of: “RENT.”

“tick, tick…BOOM!” – the last show of AAC’s 2016-17 season – is a semi-autobiographical work that follows a starving composer torn between staying true to his passion and succumbing to the external presumed pressures of his girlfriend and best friend to give up his bohemian lifestyle on the brink of his 30th birthday. At its heart, it’s a musical about growing older and taking stock of your own happiness. It’s about not accomplishing all the things you said you’d accomplish by that age and deciding how to continue forward. Kyle Braun stars as Johnathan while Deborah Mae Hill and Michael Detmer round out the rest of this three-person cast. As Hill affirms, this production feels remarkably special because the entire cast has either just turned 30 or is about to turn 30. “I feel very fulfilled,” Hill says of her recent passing of the milestone. “I don’t feel the angst. There’s uncertainty, but I’m excited about it.” Director Jordan Price also has a special connection with this musical. “I saw this in New York City on my 20th birthday, 16 years ago, with my best friends from high school,” he relates. It had a profound effect on him, and he told himself one day he’d do this show: “I always thought I’d do it as a performer, but then the opportunity came to direct it and I feel so passionate about the material that it was a no-brainer.” Price explains that “tick, tick...BOOM!” was actually mostly written before “RENT” and that for anyone who likes a good backstory or may be curious about the genesis of one of the great new American musicals, “This will be a real treat for them.” The script was restructured by David Auburn – “Proof ” playwright – after Larson’s death, so the dialogue holds up strongly against the musical numbers, which means if you’ve stayed away

from musicals in the past, this might be the one for you. Price describes the show as a “crisp 90 minutes” and a “very fulfilling dramatic work.” I ended my visit by watching music director Gayle King lead the cast through a rendition of “No More,” a humorous song about leaving behind the financial struggles that often accompany our 20s, which promises that the show will have a good bit of comedy infused with its other, more serious complexities. Acting Against Cancer is a local nonprofit theatre company that strives to use the arts to help children touched by cancer. Every year, they put on a full season of shows with high

artistic integrity. They also teach children acting classes at no-cost to kids who have been affected by cancer either directly or through a relative. AAC Managing Director Whitten Montgomery says the organization is growing and they look forward to adding two additional classes next year.

EAR ABBY: My husband and I have been married 10 years, and he treats my family and friends very different compared to how he treats his own.

Dear Abby JEANNE PHILLIPS

A few months ago, my sister called me at 9 p.m. She was driving through on her way to Florida with her 7-year-old daughter and had been trying for an hour to find a hotel at that point. We were only 40 minutes away, so I told her she could stay the night with us. When I told my husband afterward, he flipped out because I didn’t ask his permission first. I have never invited anyone to stay with us before. My family lives far away, but I didn’t think it was a big deal to extend the invite because he constantly tells his family and friends they are always welcome. Today he informed me his son is coming to stay a week with his wife and 6-month-old (two weeks from now!). Am I wrong to feel that if there is a rule, it should apply to both of us, and he should have asked me first? — HOUSE RULES IN FLORIDA DEAR HOUSE RULES: No, you’re not wrong. Because your husband is such a stickler for “asking permission” before inviting relatives to stay, that same courtesy should have been extended to you. House rules are supposed to be followed by everyone who lives in the household. There seems to be an imbalance of power in yours. Be smart. Talk with a licensed counselor about how to deal with your husband because unless you do, you’ll spend the rest of your life playing second fiddle to a controlling, emotional bully. ••• DEAR ABBY: One of my longtime friends has become extremely religious. I have nothing against religion, but I am non-practicing, although I do believe in something greater. My problem is, now whenever we talk, text, Facebook page and Skype (with our children), everything is about God, religion, how He has a plan for us, etc. I don’t want to offend her, but my son and I do not need to constantly hear about

her religious beliefs. My husband and I are raising our son to be a kind, honest person, but are letting him choose what religion (if any) he wants to be a part of when he grows up. Although we now have only a long-distance friendship (I had to move away), this has put a strain on it because I haven’t said anything. What should I do? How should I handle it? — NON-OBSERVANT IN ONTARIO,

CANADA DEAR NON-OBSERVANT: The woman means well, so don’t be defensive. But do speak up and tell her – nicely – that while you understand religion has become an important part of her life, you would prefer she leave the subject out of your conversations. Unless trying to convert people is a part of her religion, she will respect your wishes. However, if she doesn’t, you will have to decide whether it’s worth the annoyance to continue this long-distance relationship. ••• DEAR ABBY: I am a gay man who has been dating a divorced man for nine months. I’m 25 and he is 50. He was married to a woman for more than 20 years and has three children. (I am the age between his middle and oldest children.) We met one day and have never been apart since. It started great. We had a connection I had never experienced before I met him. He was let go from his job, and I supported him for some time. He finally found a job in Georgia, and I am left in New York. I made plans to move there with him, but I’m nervous about it. First, because I have never been in love before and I’m not sure if he’s as in love with me as I am with him. Second, he cheated on his wife with a man my age. The guy left him right before he met me, and I’m not so sure he is completely over him. (I know they are still in contact, but he has never lied about it.) I’m worried he might cheat on me too, or worse, give his ex another shot, and I’ll be left on the sidelines. What advice can you offer me? — WANTS TO MAKE THE RIGHT MOVE DEAR WANTS: Do nothing drastic right now. Pay him a visit. Without committing yourself, take a look around to see if

63 TVT.indd 63

ABBY

Man Puts out a Welcome Mat Only for His Side of the Family Georgia might suit you. You say this man hasn’t lied to you. While you’re there, ask him whether he would give his ex another shot if the man were willing. However, don’t prejudge him because he was unable to remain faithful to his wife. Like some gay men who come out later in life, he may not have fully realized that he was gay until some time after they were married. It happens. ••• DEAR ABBY: I work in a company that has small offices. Although most people have their own office, I share one because I was the last guy hired. I have one co-worker who I really like, but he has a serious problem. He — and his wife, I suspect — don’t do laundry. This results in him having serious odor. When he comes into my office or I have to go into his, or even walk by his door, the smell is seriously rank. How do I tell him or his superiors about this issue? — HOLDING MY NOSE IN TEXAS DEAR HOLDING: Go to your supervisor and explain the problem. You should not have to counsel the offending employee; the boss, your supervisor or someone in human resources should do it. If the problem is as severe as you say it is, it probably won’t be the first time they have heard about it because others will have noticed it and complained, too. ••• DEAR ABBY: I have a new neighbor, and after meeting just once, she declared us to be “great friends.” I work full time and she doesn’t, so anytime I’m home she wants to get together. That would be fine if I liked her, but I don’t! We are complete opposites, and she has a major gambling problem. How do I gracefully say I’m not interested in being friends? — PLEASE LEAVE ME ALONE DEAR PLEASE: The poor woman is new in the neighborhood. That may be why she’s reaching out the way she is. When she suggests getting together, explain that you have a full-time job and things you need to do at home, so the answer is you don’t have time. Sorry. •••

PUZZLES

pets of the week Meet Pixie! Pixie is a happy, one-year-old Terrier mix looking for an active family to love. Pixie came to the Kentucky Humane Society when her owner could no longer care for her. Pixie needs a family who can offer plenty of play time and walks to help her exert her energy. Pixie also loves toys! You name it, Pixie plays with it. Her former owner says she is a total lover who enjoys playing outside, running around the backyard and meeting new people. While Pixie did live a cat in her previous home, she was a bit too excited about the cat and would probably do better in a home no felines. Pixie is spayed, micro-chipped and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Come meet her today at the Clarksville Feeders Supply, 229 E. Lewis and Clark Pwky. For more on Misty or any of our adoptable pets, please call 502-366-3355 or visit kyhumane.org. Prince, along with Queenie and their 9 kittens, were all abandoned on the Kentucky Humane Society’s property. The family of cats had been sealed in two duct-taped containers, including a plastic bin that lacked air holes. Thankfully, a KHS staff member found them within 15 minutes of the cats being abandoned outside a locked door. Prince may take a few minutes to warm up to you and to trust you. He isn’t a fan of being picked up, but once he trusts you he will solicit attention and enjoys being talked to and petted. Do you have room in your heart for this handsome black cat? Prince is now neutered, so he won’t be adding to the cat overpopulation problem. Prince is also micro-chipped and up-to-date on vaccinations. Come meet him today at the Fern Creek Feeders Supply, 6820 Bardstown Rd. For more on Prince or any of our adoptable pets, please call 502-366-3355 or visit kyhumane.org.
