FROM THE
Fall used to be my favorite time of year for fashion. I loved layers, scarves, hats and mixing seasonal clothes (a sweatshirt with shorts was my personal favorite). But now as I get busier and my responsibilities grow, when I think of cooling temps it only makes me think of more garments to coordinate and more fabric to wash. I’ve completely forgotten how to have fun with fall fashion. Luckily, I was able to get a crash course last Friday when I was asked to “model” in the Younger Woman’s Club’s annual fashion show, “Fall Into Fabulous.” I had never been on a runway before without a microphone except for some old pageant days and, bless my heart, those VHS tapes are well hidden. I felt awkward and a little cringey in rehearsals, but the gorgeous garments I got to display from participating boutiques A Girl and Her Dog, Panopoly and All Is Fair In Love and Fashion gave me the confidence to sweep, sashay and, dare I say, even strut down the runway. I also took lots of notes on what I still needed to purchase from Sassy Fox, Six Sisters, Work the Metal, Persimmons and Stella’s Resale Boutique (I need ALL the vintage hats, please.) to complete my fall wardrobe. We share some of the highlights from the show on this week’s cover and I hope they get you as amped for accessorizing for autumn as they do me. Fall Into Fabulous was about more than clothes, however. Nine individuals were nominated as Most Fashionable Philanthropists and asked to solicit votes as “most fashionable” by way of contributions to a cause of their choice. Russell Smith managed to impressively raise over $10,000 for St. John Center for Homeless Men, and therefore, the honor of being named Most Fashionable Philanthropist. It was a wellearned and well-deserved title, proving that, for any season, generosity is always on trend. The YWC also made Voice-Tribune headlines this week for their winning table at Butterflies in Motion, the over-the-top and fabulous event at The Brown Hotel held last Tuesday to benefit Heuser Hearing & Language Academy. Photos unfortunately do not do the table decor for their “Titanic” table justice. With the table askew with fine china and an enormous iceburg jutting through the center, it was the perfect visual representation of the epic movie. Never let go, YWC! Thank you for all the fashion and philanthropy you bring to our community year-round.

Southern Symbols:
HISTORY OR HATRED?
The Speed Museum will host a two-day event examining the country’s conflicting emotions over Confederate memorials.
T
his weekend, The Speed Art Museum will tackle one of the most vexing issues roiling the country: What should we do about monuments, memorials, statues, plaques and the like commemorating Confederate figures of the Civil War? With two back-to-back events, the museum will address both the intellectual and emotional aspects of retaining or destroying these vestiges of a particularly painful era of By Steve Kaufman American history. On Friday, October 13, The Speed Art Museum will host a full-day seminar, “Southern Symbols: Remembering Our Past and Envisioning Our Future,” a public discussion of the cultural nature of historical “symbols,” and especially these symbols of the great national scar remaining from the Civil War. The next day, artist Sonya Clark will host her performance piece, called “Unraveling,” in which she and anyone who wishes to join her will pull apart a Confederate flag, thread by thread, while they quietly and thoughtfully share their emotions about what the exercise means. The two events come at the very end of a special 27-week exhibition at the Speed called “Southern Accent: Seeking the American South in Contemporary Art,” assembled by Miranda Lash, Curator of Contemporary Art at Miranda Lash, the Speed’s curator of conSpeed Museum temporary art, and Trevor Schoonmaker, her counterpart at Duke Nasher We wanted a show that would University’s Museum of Art.

a question, rather than as a fixed answer. We opened the exhibit to artists from all over the country, to generate a national conversation.” She said it has been the Speed’s best-attended show since the museum reopened in March 2016. More than 20,000 visitors have seen the exhibit. “It’s hard to think of a show as presenting more doorways for more diverse groups,” says Lash. “Police, minorities, the LGBT community, students, women...so many found a way to plug in.” And then, in the middle of the exhibit’s stay at The Speed, public events took over, widening the conversation and raising the volume. A violent white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August brought attention again to the Confederate monuments around the country. Monuments were taken down not only in the Deep South, but also in Brooklyn, Boston, Washington D.C. and Lexington. “Just as we were preparing this exhibition, Mayor Mitch Landrieu declared the removal of four monuments in New Orleans,” says Lash. “This was a national discussion we wanted to participate in.” “I don’t know of another country that has erected monuments to the losing side of a civil war,” says Stephen Reily, the Speed’s interim director, who is himself a child of the Deep South. With funding from the Andy Warhol Foundation (allocated for research toward public conversation among historians and artists), the Speed will be flying in nine artists and historians to lead “Southern Symbols,” the day of discussion and analysis. Beginning at 10 a.m. on October 13, Dr. Catherine Clinton, Denman Professor of American History at the University of Texas at San Antonio, will convene a panel on “Historical Context and Recent Events” that includes Dr. W. Fitzhugh Brundage; William B. Umstead, distinguished professor and department chair of history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; Dr. Deirdre Cooper Owens, assistant professor, 1 0 . 1 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

department of history at Queens College, City University of New York; and artist Sonya Clark, who’s also a distinguished research fellow in the School of the Arts at Virginia Commonwealth University. After lunch, Lash will moderate a discussion, “Contemporary Decisions: What Kind of Memorials, Markers and Names are Appropriate for the Future?” with a panel that includes Dr. Jason Johnson, assistant professor at Trinity University, San Antonio; New York artist and sculptor Nari Ward; and Jessica Ingram, assistant professor in fine arts and photography at California College of the Arts. At 3:30 p.m., Spalding University’s Community for Peace and Spiritual Renewal will lead a series, “Talking Circles: Finding Connections Through Courageous Conversations,” in which all attendees are invited to participate and share their thoughts. At 6 p.m., Dr. David W. Blight will deliver the keynote address, “Lost Causes and Causes Not Lost: Confederate Memorials, Then and Now.” Blight is a professor of American history and director of the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery, Resistance and Abolition at Yale University. He will discuss why the Confederacy in its various memorial manifestations never seems to go away and why nearly all debates or struggles over monuments and memorials are about the present. On October 14, starting at 2 p.m., Clark will conduct her “Unraveling,” a painstaking two-hour thread-by-thread dismantling of a Confederate flag. One by one, attendees are invited to sit with Clark, pull at the thread and discuss their feelings with her. “She conceived of the de-threading in honor of the 150th anniversary of the end of the Civil War,” says Lash. “She sees the slowness of the entire process as a parallel to the labor of unraveling symbols in contemporary society. Meanings do not change overnight.” Lash says Clark draws a parallel to the labor of picking cotton, but also to the labor of deconstructing our understanding of the South. 1 0 . 1 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

Sonya Clark, presenting performance artist of “Unraveling.”
While Clark has held several of these “unravelings,” Lash says it’s the first time she’ll be performing the piece since Charlottesville. Local writer Minda Honey will also lead a post-experience discussion and writing workshop until 4:30 p.m. “We’re not holding a hearing on what symbols ought or ought not be torn down, either here in Louisville or anywhere else,” Lash explains. “But we can talk about history, about why they were put up, what kind of visual culture they created about the South and what kind of public art we could be proud of.” Reily is proud that the museum is the site for such important discussion. “Right now in America, there are some really bad places to have these hard conversations, or places that don’t move the conversation forward,” the interim director explains. “The museum feels right now like a place that can do this. I think it’s because art presents an alternate way to enter the conversation. There are a lot of ways to talk about issues that do not help us. But a museum can go right to the heart of those tough conversations and make us feel better, whereas so many of these conversations make us feel worse.” While the Southern Symbols discussions are free, there is a seating capacity of 300, and attendees are encouraged to reserve their places online at speedmuseum.org. Attendees can also preorder lunch from Wiltshire Pantry. Participation in “Unraveling” is included with the price of general admission and a “Southern Accent” special exhibition ticket.

Tribute To Troops
C
all it the opposite of a black-tie event or call it a fantastically fun night with upwards of 900 of your closest friends. Either way, this casual gathering celebrates, honors and raises funding for injured and recovering servicemen and women and veterans from the US Armed Forces.
What is the Tribute To Troops?
The Tribute To Troops benefitting the Warrior Empowerment Foundation is a casual, autumn BBQ and party, celebrating the brave men and women of our Armed Forces, who were injured on duty, and continue their recovery today. It’s a casual, fun event that raises much-needed funding for veterans’ organizations locally.
How did the Warrior Empowerment Foundation form?
Founder and CEO Michael Greenwell.
TRIBUTE TO TROOPS October 21 Titan Marine, Prospect Advance tickets, $50 Veteran tickets, $20
The Warrior Empowerment Foundation started in 2013 when a group of friends spent a long night boating on the Ohio River talking about service and sacrifice. As the evening wore on, a theme surfaced. Injured service men and women—those who bravely leave their families and comfortable lives to face the unknown and who may never return, or return battered and shattered in many ways. The friends realized their enjoyment and freedom would not be possible if those service men and women didn’t selflessly serve their country. Mike Greenwell, president of Titan Marine in Prospect, works regularly with veterans and military contracts in his business. For years, he toyed with the idea of throwing a fundraiser to support veterans. He, along with his boating friends, took those ideas of service to heart and the Warrior Empowerment Foundation was born in 2013. The Warrior Empowerment Foundation (WEF) is all volunteer. “We pay no salaries, and rely on donations and the great support of our friends and neighbors to serve, support and empower injured members of the United States Armed Forces and their caregivers,” said Greenwell. “We are entirely local. What’s raised in Louisville, stays in Louisville and surrounding communities.”
How does the Warrior Empowerment Foundation help others? The original Tribute To Troops event in 2013 had a modest goal of raising $10,000. By 2016, the Tribute To Troops garnered about 1,000 guests, and raised nearly $200,000 in one evening. That funding was used throughout this year locally in supporting U.S. military service men and women and veterans injured during active duty. 20
“Sometimes the need is visible – a missing limb or traumatic injury – but many times, the need is not visible. Our wounded and recovering service members may suffer from PTSD, psychological issues, they may have trouble finding work or their family might need support. We are there to help as needed, where needed,” said Greenwell.
What can we expect at this year’s Tribute to Troops? The fifth annual Tribute To Troops event that was originally envisioned as a casual late summer get-together at Greenwell’s business, Titan Marine, now features a massive buffet dinner provided at no charge by Sysco Foods and Tumbleweed, music by Andy Burch and Famous on Friday and a large silent auction featuring several high-end gifts. There’s music, great food and drink, lots of dancing and visiting with friends old and new. The highlight of the event is the boisterous arrival of injured and recovering servicemen and women from Ft. Knox. More than 120 soldiers and veterans and their families are escorted from Ft. Knox to Prospect in a massive motorcade provided by the Jefferson County and Oldham County sheriff’s offices, fire departments and EMS, as well as the Kentucky Patriot Riders motorcycle club.
Where does the money go? Throughout 2017, the Warrior Empowerment Foundation distributed grants to several area nonprofit organizations which serve veterans, active duty service members and their caregivers’ needs, including USA Cares, the 412th Civil Affairs Battalion Alumni Fund, Paws With Purpose, Joggin’ for Frogmen, Save A Vet, Volunteers of America and St. Vincent de Paul. “Because we are a local foundation helping local people, we can tailor our gifts as needed,” said Greenwell. “We encourage organizations and groups to reach out to us and collectively, we distribute support to our hometown heroes.” VT 1 0 . 1 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

SPOTLIGHT
Aviation and Military Heritage Festival
P
resented by Humana Military, this oneof-a-kind experience at Bowman Field is happening on October 14 and 15. To learn more about this collaboration, we spoke with Dell Courtney of the festival committee and planning team.
What is the Aviation and Military Heritage Festival?
The Bowman Field Aviation and Military Heritage Festival is a collaborative event that commemorates the U.S. role in all conflicts from WWI to Afghanistan. It also salutes the heritage and role of Bowman Field in Louisville’s military and civilian air history and explores the role of Louisville’s and Southern Indiana’s industries in the war efforts over the decades. It combines the best of the 2016 Bowman Field Aviation Festival and the 2015 and 2016 “Spirit of ‘45” events that commemorated the end of WWII, both of which took place at Bowman Field.
What can guests expect from this exciting event? This will be an opportunity to see vintage and modern aircraft and military equipment and to visit with their owners, including: a B-25 Mitchell bomber, Flagship Detroit DC 3, Avenger fighter plane (the same kind that former President George H.W. Bush flew in WWII), WWII L-4 reconnaissance planes, Steerman (double wing) planes, vintage Warbirds and other planes of varying types and ages. Guests will have a chance to purchase an exciting ride in the Flagship Detroit, DC3 and see historical exhibits ranging from WWI to the present and the early days of Bowman Field. There will also be special exhibits on “Women in War” and “Women in Aviation” and modern equipment from all branches of the U.S. Armed 22
Services. A few other exhibits will explore the history of Louisville area companies’ roles in supplying and supporting the military in WWII (Ford Motor Company, American Commercial Lines [Jeff Boat], Hillerich & Bradsby and many others). Those who attend can aexplore the “Hall of Memories,” where individuals will display military memorabilia from their families. Entertainment will be provided by “The Ladies for Liberty,” a USO-type dance party with the Don Krekel Orchestra on Saturday and “The Dandies” on Sunday. There will be children’s activities as well and opportunities to meet and thank veterans from WWII, Korea, Vietnam and the present day. Net proceeds from the Festival will benefit Honor Flight Bluegrass and Bowman Field Friends. The community itself will benefit from the opportunity to visit and learn about the history and heritage of Louisville’s original airport, the role it played in helping win WWII and its place in modern day Louisville. The festival is an educational experience and, as one visitor said, “a world class, one-day museum on one site.”
Which sponsors do we need to thank for helping put this festival on? Our presenting sponsor is Humana Military. Other sponsors include Kentucky Veterans Trust Fund, Beyond Band of Brothers Tours, Four Roses Bourbon, Independent Pilots Association, Jean Frazier, Dick and Ardi Wilson and Mary Romelfanger. In addition to the corporate and personal sponsors, there are many organizations and individuals who serve as volunteers and in-kind sponsors.

fter a crushing state championship loss to West Jessamine last fall, Sacred Heart learned what it means to be resilient. Through their hard work in training and their impressive execution throughout each game, the Valkyries (15-2) have found themselves atop the seventh region once again. For a group of girls who are already passionate about winning and being their very best, a state championship loss became just the push they needed to stay motivated and hungry. “We do a lot of reflection in our program,” says Head Coach Jaclyn Puntillo. “We watch a lot of film and we talk a lot about what we did well, but mostly focus on the areas we can improve upon. When you’re constantly thinking about what you could have done better, it’s hard to become complacent.” Sacred Heart knows there isn’t any room for error. With their rich tradition and a sacred culture that prides itself on success, teams are always giving them their best shot. Now that postseason play is here, the Valkyries will look to take it up a notch in their quest at redemption and a chance to avenge their state championship loss. When you walk into a Sacred Heart practice or attend one of their games, you will see a team full of passionate individuals who are also passionate about one another. “They don’t play for themselves as individuals; they play for the team so they are always trying their best for their teammates,” Puntillo adds. Having coached different athletes year in and year out, even Coach Puntillo admits she has learned a lot from this program during her tenure. “I’m decent at my job because one of my greatest strengths is that I care about my players on a human level,” she adds. “I have a very strong sense of loyalty to them, and I always want to do whatever is in my power to help them reach their goals both on and off the field.” Sacred Heart is dominant on the field, but it also translates into everyday life. If you were to wonder how this soccer program views or defines success, it would be easy to point to their win column over the years. However, for them, ultimate success is not weighed by wins alone. “We are preparing our players for their next journey, whether that’s playing soccer or not. We want to turn out players who know how to be a part of a team, who know how to manage their time and stress, who feel confident in a variety of situations,” Puntillo adds. A defining moment came when Coach Puntillo saw her team rally around recent graduates and their families affected by deaths in their family. As kids came to her office,

questioning her about life’s calamities, it was in those moments that she gained a greater perspective as a coach. “For so long, so much of my life has been wrapped up in what happens on the field—as a player and now as a coach—but in the grand scheme of things, the wins and losses don’t matter. What matters is the community that we’ve created, the really good people that come out of Sacred Heart and our program and the support system that is available to these players long after they’re in the program.” As the team prepares for the postseason, they know they cannot overlook the seventh region with teams like Manual, Assumption, Male and CAL all staring them down. The Valkyries will rely heavily on Lexie Wagner, who emerged as a premier leader and athlete on the roster. As a sophomore, you may not have associated the word captain with Lexie, who Coach Puntillo says has certainly earned and embraced the role quite well. “Lexie has always been one of our hardest workers, but she has really matured as a player in the last year and has provided some really essential positive leadership within our team. She also is very comfortable acting as a liaison between the players and me, letting me know when they need more rest or need to be pushed a little harder.” Lexie will be leading the troops, as they look to claim state champion honors once again. Sacred Heart won the state title back in 2015, and Puntillo says if the team can stay healthy and focused, she thinks “we will be in good shape.” VT

— Bob Bayersdorfer
ounded in 1959 by Stanley Bayersdorfer, The Fashion Post has been a fixture in the Louisville retail scene since it’s humble beginnings in its original St. Matthews location. Still family owned and operated to this day, the shop has earned and maintained it’s reputation as a premier resource for classic menswear. True to their roots, the constant element of The Fashion Post’s aesthetic is good taste. We now live in a world of menswear saturated with disposable and inexpensive suits, hoodies, denim and leisure activewear available on every website, at every mall and in every shopping center around. The days of a specialty shop, one that caters to discerning customers who appreciate the subtleties of superior tailoring, and a pair of trousers over cargo shorts, aren’t over yet, though. They are just fewer for the finding. The Fashion Post fills that space perfectly, and they take great pride in the experiential aspect of their business. On my first visit to The Fashion Post, I met with Bob Bayersdorfer (Stanley’s son), who runs the shop now, and could immediately feel his dedication and passion for the business his family has built. Bayersdorfer described his target audience as “men and women who want their guys to look good, who want to look professional and successful on the job or a cut above the crowd in social settings. It’s for gentlemen who prefer a focused, well-defined look.” Offering a thoughtfully selected collection of men’s sportswear, tailored suiting and various furnishings, The Fashion Post is a one-stop shop for any man’s wardrobe needs. But what sets it apart even further from department stores and online retailers is the professional service and expertise Bayersdorfer and his associates offer to every client. Their in-house tailor shop includes professionals with over 100 years of combined experience, and at the helm of that expertise is Marvin Stone, who has been the head tailor for 53 years. Additionally, as an incredible perk to clients, every item (suiting or otherwise) purchased from The Fashion Post includes lifetime alterations at no charge. The Fashion Post stocks garments and accessories from many notable labels such as Southwick, Jack Victor, Peter Millar, Bills Khakis, Gitman Bros., Robert Talbott, Scott Barber and Smathers & Branson, to name a few. However, Bayersdorfer told me, “We edit the store carefully. We go to market, but we don’t buy based on label. If it doesn’t fit the store, we don’t buy it.” And since Bayersdorfer and his team are on the floor everyday connecting with clients, the staff is able to really develop a knowledge of customers’ preferences. This experience combined with their expansive product knowledge allows them to educate their shoppers and further cater to their satisfaction. If you’re ready (or your guy is) to transform your wardrobe or build upon it with quality styles that will stand the test of time and set you apart from the crowd, The Fashion Post can make it happen.

AROUND TOWN THINGS TO DO
Friday Night Spots By Mariah Kline
I
can never get the hang of Fridays. You’ve made it through a long work week and you want to get out of the house, but you don’t have the energy to go dancing or eat at someplace that’s going to be packed. Since finding the balance can be a tricky business, I did the legwork for you for this week’s Top 5. All of these spots are ideal for a quick dinner and a couple of drinks with a date or a few friends.

s there anything more comforting than a margarita with chips and queso after a long week? If there is, I can’t think of it. Havana Rumba is well-known for their phenomenal Cuban food but they also have a great bar. Plus, if you need a mid-week pick me up, they do halfoff house margaritas, mojitos and sangrias on Wednesdays.

illtop is a favorite among my friend group because the drinks are strong and the food is so tasty. They have seating inside and outside, plus a projector and a large screen that’s often showing the night’s biggest sporting event. They also do special trivia nights and beer pairings (I was in heaven the night they paired Rhinegeist brews with Girl Scout Cookies) so if you follow them on social media, you can stay in the know.

his lesser-known spot was opened by the same person who owns Toonerville Deli and Burger Boy Diner so you know they’re not amateurs. The Tavern has a great variety of burgers and entrees so even the pickiest of dates can find something they like. Everything I’ve had on the menu is delicious, and they never stay open past midnight so you won’t be dealing with too rowdy of a crowd.

alking around the museum at 21c, which is free and open 24 hours, was one of my favorite pastimes as a broke college student. However, I keep going back for the experience because the art is always changing and the bartenders at Proof are top notch. Have a drink or two then walk around and see the museum’s latest exhibits. And don’t forget to stop by “Text Rain” near the lobby for a quick photo op.
T
here’s a reason their menu reads “Serving bikers to brain surgeons for over 30 years.” This place welcomes people from all walks of life and offers a low-key atmosphere you rarely find at other bars. Their traditional pub food and cheap drinks make it the perfect spot for a night when you just want to relax. If you’ve never paid them a visit before, I recommend the Ultimate Nachos or the fried mushrooms.

Check out the DrinkKy App

K
eeping up with the new and existing wineries and craft breweries hasn’t been easy. Until now. A new app, WINE AND BEER LOVERS: DrinkKy, makes you wonder, “Why didn’t someone do this before?” The savvy folks at the Kentucky Grape and Wine Council, part of the Kentucky Department of Agriculture, and the Kentucky Guild of Brewers began working on By Nancy Miller the app in June 2016, launching the first phase in January of this year and expanding it in the spring. “Before DrinkKy, the app was named Kentucky Wine Trails. It needed to be completely overhauled or scrapped and started again from scratch. We decided to build a new one that has all the bells and whistles. We realized partnering with the breweries would tap into a new audience we hadn’t been reaching before,” says Tyler Madison, the Grape, Wine and Spirits Program Manager for the Kentucky Grape & Wine Council. The app makes it a snap to explore and experience the phenomenal evolution of the wine and craft beer industries in the state. DrinkKy features 70 wineries and 43 breweries. When a winery or brewery is selected, DrinkKy instantly provides the address, directions, hours of operations and specifics to help plan a trip for a visit. An interactive map allows the user to chart We realized partnering with the and complete an individubreweries would tap into a new alized wine or trail and audience we hadn’t been reaching before. beer to record field notes and tast— Tyler Madison ing notes. Madison, who previously worked as a wine advisor in England, says it’s an exciting time to be working with Kentucky wineries because wine is an emerging industry. “In 2000 there were maybe five or six wineries in the state. Even with 70 now, there’s substantial growth to come. We’re still at the point that the wineries are figuring out what they can do best. It’s a learning as we go process. The quality constantly improves, and more people are starting wineries,” he says. TA S T E S

Bringing breweries into the app took it to another level. “Microbreweries are so popular. They’re being run mainly by young, motivated guys with big, bushy beards who are all about quality and pushing boundaries,” he adds. “Derek Selznick, who’s in charge of the Kentucky Guild of Brewers, came from a background of fundraising for a nonprofit. When I first met him, he looked like a typical business guy. Now he has stubble. It’s like he had to get into it.” Wineries and breweries have embraced the app with great enthusiasm. For the former app, passwords at the wineries and breweries became confusing when various people working in the tasting rooms or tap rooms needed to access them. Now everything is geofenced. When someone visits a tasting or tap room, the check-in button becomes live. Madison needs to run the analytics before he can give an accurate account of the number of people who have downloaded the app, but receives an email when someone completes a wine trail. That number is averaging about ten people a week. DrinkKy offers gifts at breweries and wineries. Gifts for people who check in at wineries are covered by the Kentucky Grape and Wine council. Gifts may change periodically. For seven check-ins, there is a Kentucky Wine Trails T-shirt. With seven more check-ins, there are four embossed leather coasters. At 21 check-ins, the big milestone, users will be rewarded with a Corkcicle. Pop it in the freezer, then place it into a bottle of wine to keep it cold for two hours. Gifts from the Kentucky Guild of Brewers include a sticker pack for 10 brewery visits, a T-shirt for 20 visits and a hat when 30 visits have been completed. So much significant Beta testing preceded the launch that there hasn’t been much of a window to develop and implement a comprehensive marketing program. But digital campaigns are finally underway to promote the app. “The app is a great project to work on, except for actually building it. Fortunately, we have developers who do that. They speak a different language. When someone hears what I do, it sounds as if I have the best job in the world and hang out at wineries a lot. But, there are plenty of times I sit in meetings for hours and crunch numbers. That’s the less sexy side of the job but people tell me it has to be done. I feel like I would be far more productive sitting with a laptop in a bar or tap room all day. However, it’s like bowling. You may be really good at bowling, but after two or three drinks, your results decrease quickly,” he says. VT

Horses and Hope Sees New Era of Growth By Remy Sisk
The Horses and Hope Mustang was the pace car for the 2011 World Sprint Cup and now travels the state for special events. It is here shown with breast cancer survivors at a weekend retreat.

he Kentucky Cancer Program has a more than 20-year history of working with Kentucky first ladies to develop breast cancer initiatives for the Commonwealth. Their programs have regularly been successful, but when Steve Beshear came into office, First Lady Jane Beshear began development with the Kentucky Cancer Program on an initiative that is still having a significant impact now, 10 years later. Horses and Hope launched with the mission of increasing breast cancer awareness, education, screening and treatment referrals among Kentucky’s signature horse industry workers and their families, many of whom are uninsured and underserved. But over the course of its existence, the organization, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this November, has developed into so much more. “When Jane Beshear and her husband came to Frankfort, we sat down and discussed what she’d like to do,” relates Kentucky Cancer Program Director Connie Sorrell of the initial conceptualization of Horses and Hope. “And because she loves horses and has been a rider her entire life, we decided to do something around horses. She pulled together a group of people – her friends, some jockeys, horse owners and farm owners – and we formed the Pink Stable, which to this day has been our advisory group.”
When Steve Beshear came into office, First Lady Jane Beshear began development with the Kentucky Cancer Program on an initiative that is still having a significant impact now, 10 years later. In 2008, Horses and Hope started having special race days at tracks across Kentucky. The events consistently sold out and saw attendees dress in all pink and get to watch a special race in honor of survivors. Those 30
breast cancer-specific programs were important progress, but in recent years, the organization has widened its scope beyond breast cancer. This new era of growth began just as Beshear’s term was coming to an end. “Before the Beshears left office – she was with us for eight years – we were talking about what she wanted her legacy to be, and she said, ‘I would love to have a new Horses and Hope cancer screening van,’” Sorrell recounts. Jane Beshear went on to work with the James Graham Brown Cancer Center, KentuckyOne Health, the University of Louisville and the Kentucky Cancer Program to raise $1 million toward this newly equipped cancer screening and education van. “It goes to the backside of the tracks – we go to Keeneland and Churchill Downs – and it doesn’t just provide mammograms – we’re also providing services for men and women,” Sorrell emphasizes. “We provide education and screenings for seven different cancers. So it’s moved beyond breast cancer with women to multiple cancers and men and women.” Indeed, today, Horses and Hope is actively traveling from racetrack to racetrack offering mammograms, yes, but also specific education on various cancers and moreover, screenings for multiple types of cancer. Year by year, Horses and Hope is improving both the awareness and knowledge of people at risk and affected by cancer, and it’s clear there’s no end in sight. “It is a program that was founded in Kentucky for Kentucky around Kentucky’s signature horse racing industry,” Sorrell maintains. “So we were able to create something totally new for our state based upon the local needs, the local interest and the local resources. There are a lot of very prominent national organizations, but Jane Beshear had a vision to do this for the people in Kentucky.” VT 1 0 . 1 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

“I
t was kind of the meeting of two people in a specific place in their life,” says the Roar-Shack Bookstore & Art Gallery Co-Owner Amanda Lamkin of the forming of the business. For the last several years, The Roar-Shack, located at 2044 Frankfort Ave., has been A Reader’s Corner owned by Tim and Judy Fout. Recently, however, the Fouts were looking for a way out of their business while the Lamkins were looking for a way in. Just a few conversations later, The Roar-Shack opened its doors to the public on September 2. Lamkin’s husband, Thomas, is a visual artist and she is an author. Together, they own Line by Lion Publications. To support their business, they have regularly had to travel, selling books at various fairs and conventions. But when one of their four children
recently encountered some health problems, Lamkin knew the couple had to make a change. “Less than a week before I saw the ad from Tim and Judy, I said to Thomas, ‘If we don’t find a way to start getting my books and your art out there more regularly, we’re 1 0 . 1 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

going to have to close,’” she relates. “And then I saw the ad that they were looking for new owners and sent them a message, and within a week, we were the owners of The Roar-Shack.” Called The Roar-Shack because it is now the home of Line by Lion, the store celebrates all things artistic, featuring visual art on the walls in addition to its eclectic collection of books. This amalgamation of the arts is something that was important to both Amanda and Thomas as they formed the identity of The Roar-Shack and an aspect that certainly makes them unique. “People who are interested in the written word are often also interested in art, music, theatre and all of those things – and those are all things that we’re incorporating here,” Lamkin attests. “We’ve had two live music shows and plan on having more. We, of course, have the art gallery, and it just seems that people who have a love for independent artists of any medium – that appreciation can really transcend mediums. So this is a safe place where people can enjoy what other people have done, and then we’ve also set it up to be a place where people can create their own.” Indeed, there’s a guitar lying around 1 0 . 1 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

the store that anyone is free to use. Lamkin affirms that she’s very much hoping to host writer groups at The Roar-Shack. And if anyone is interested in having their own art featured on the walls, all they have to do is discuss a few details with Amanda. “We’re trying to make this a haven for anybody who likes making or enjoying art of any sort,” she says. The Roar-Shack is less than a month old, but its promise of fostering the arts within the community indicates its growth to be decidedly imminent. As Lamkin emphasizes, “This is a place where people can just come and leave the rest of the world at the door. We have chairs and couches everywhere – this is a place where, of course I like it when people spend money here, but if someone just wants to come and spend their time in a relaxed and homey atmosphere and be creative, that’s something that they now have here.” VT

Partyline Butterflies and Beyond By Carla Sue Broecker

euser Hearing & Language Academy has a support group called The Butterfly Society. Each year the Butterflies host a luncheon at the Brown Hotel Crystal Ballroom that is attended by nearly 300 people who are “movers and shakers” and are committed to the cause of providing hearing assistance and education to the preschool children of our community. The $5,000 sponsors this year were Clarendon Flavors; KentuckyOne Health; Kindred Healthcare; Kosair Charities; Mueller Environmental Designs, Inc.; Dan Schusterman and The Sam Swope Family Foundation. Sponsors received tables for their support and others purchased tables for $1,000. The fun of buying a table is that there is a great competition among the sponsors in decorating the tables around a favorite movie. A person buys a table for 10 and is responsible for decorating it and inviting friends to attend and bid for fabulous auction items. People in Louisville are very generous. Items donated for the live auction that followed lunch included such wonderful things as a diamond bracelet, a collection of 25 bottles of expensive and rare bourbons, a dinner for eight at Vincenzo’s along with Louisville Orchestra tickets, a spectacular Stephen Rolfe Powell blown glass piece, and a New York Theatre trip to see two new stage productions – “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” and Disney’s “Frozen.” Some of our most famous distilleries were extremely generous with their prime bourbons (Pappy Van Winkle 23 and 20) as were several bourbon collectors who donated rare and hard-to-find bottles to the auction. The bidding was spirited! Other offerings included a white mink 26” tall Santa with a porcelain head and dinners for 24 at a private home. Libby Parkinson discovered this fundraising concept while
working on a similar event with her daughter in California. She introduced it here three years ago and it has sold out each time. All of the proceeds go to the school and the event’s expenses are always less than 10% of revenue. With this year’s sold out success, you can be sure the Butterflies will be in motion again next year. For the second year in a row, the Younger Woman’s Club of Louisville’s table design was “Best in Show.” Their theme was “Titanic.” The guests at Lindy Street’s “Casablanca” table won the Edith Head Award for best costumes. Each year at the luncheon, The Butterfly Society presents the “Spirit of Sug” award named after Sug Schusterman and given to an individual that exhibits an exemplary spirit of communal giving. This year to thunderous applause the engraved silver julep award was presented to a surprised and delighted William H. “Bill” Lomicka.
GARDEN TWILIGHT Yew Dell Botanical Garden held its annual “Twilight in the Garden,” sponsored by Brown-Forman, last Friday under an absolutely beautiful sky with warm temperatures that were unbelievable. City Girl Farm Cafe and Stock Yards Bank & Trust Co. were the Presenting Sponsors and the Star Table Sponsor was Dean Dorton Allen Ford, PLLC. Each year this botanical gem grows and improves in ever so many ways under the spectacular leadership of its long-time director, Paul Cappiello. The format of the evening includes a leisurely stroll to Yew Dell’s new permanent pavilion for cocktails, a great silent auction and dinner prepared and served by Wiltshire Pantry. Thanks to Rosemary Kirkwood who was in charge of decorations that included empty wine bottles filled with tiny lights set on blue velvet table cloths. It was a busy week for Rosemary. She also decorated a table at the Butterflies in Motion event earlier in the week. Lots of folks were there to enjoy the evening including Pam and David Ray, Kay Matton, Mary Webb, Edie Bingham and Al Shands, Jim Haynes, Andrew Gentile, Jackie Gulbe, Mary Broecker, Mary and Bob Rounsavall, Rosemary and Lee Kirkwood and too many more to name.

Building Relationships and Giving Back By Graham Pilotte Photo By Pieroni Creative

ince opening its doors, Lexus of Louisville has been a significant part of the Louisville community. But its presence has changed quite a bit, as new managing partner Walter Weibel recalls. “The office used to be dark,” Weibel remembers with a laugh. “I opened up all the blinds and opened up my door. I spend my days going out and shaking people’s hands; I try to bring a good spirit to the store all day long.” Lexus of Louisville is the leading Kentucky Lexus dealer – the place to go for everything from test-driving to financing to servicing your Lexus vehicles. “We’ve I’ve operated in Houston for years become a much more aggressive in a very competitive, transient city, and competitive with pricing and relationships were difficult. dealer and trade-ins,” Here, relationships are abundant.” Weibel explains. “But at the end of — Walter Weibel the day, what I’d like people to know is that I view myself as a very different type of dealer compared to the stereotype. I’m not afraid to take a phone call – I’ll be the first to go out there and meet you and thank you for your business.” After thirty years in the automotive industry, Weibel moved to Kentucky in 2016 to run Lexus of Louisville. “I have one partner who resides in Florida,” Weibel asserts, “but I’m the operating partner. I moved here with my wife, we purchased a home in Prospect and I’m here every single day. I have complete autonomy and entrepreneurial abilities – the store is really mine to run.” 56
In addition to taking on his new duties, Weibel is exploring ways to support his new city. “I’m trying to commit myself to charitable foundations in the community,” Weibel explains. “I’ve operated in Houston for years in a very competitive, transient city, and relationships were difficult. Here, relationships are abundant,” he says. “The people are so open-armed and welcoming – they allowed us to really fall in love with Louisville overnight. My wife and I consider this to be our home permanently. I have more neighbors who are genuine friends than I’ve ever had in my life, and I think Louisville is so unique.” As just one example of community support, Lexus of Louisville is supporting the March of Dimes. “I have a soft heart when it comes to children in general,” Weibel says. “I tell my wife I pray to God to win the lottery so that I can take care of children. Just let me win; I’ll know what to do with the money.” Lexus of Louisville is committed to working within the community, and Weibel wants his neighbors to know that. “Somebody is sitting in this office that actually wants to be involved,” he says. “At the end of the day, I really care to understand people’s ownership expectations and try to meet those expectations in the best way possible.” From the test drive to follow-up service, Weibel is interested in building a presence in the Louisville community. “Whether your expectations are service or sales, I want to accommodate them. I’m not selfishly looking for just the profit side of the business,” he says. “I’m looking for the relationship side of the business.” VT 1 0 . 1 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

he March of Dimes needs little introduction. The successful organization has combated infant mortality for just shy of 80 years, “giving every baby a fighting chance,” and proving that no challenge is insurmountable. Founded in 1938 by Franklin D. Roosevelt with the goal to eradicate polio, the March of Dimes has since funded prevention of fetal alcohol syndrome, elimination of rubella, gene sequencing to diagnose, prevent or treat birth defects, and even Apgar scoring, a standard screening measure used by modern clinicians worldwide to summarize a newborn’s health. “We like to say that everyone is a March of Dimes baby even if you were born healthy because everyone is affected for the better by our contributions,” says Erika Rohrer, Senior Development Manager for the Greater Louisville market. In 2003, the bar was set even higher to address one of healthcare’s most tragic statistics: Every year, approximately 15 million babies worldwide are born prematurely, and 1 million of them do not survive past their first birthday. Pre-term birth (defined as birth before 37 weeks gestation) is especially prevalent in the U.S., and the March of Dimes wants to know why.
“Premature birth is the number one cause of death in newborns,” Rohrer explains. “We set out to work on research, education and advocacy. We have five prematurity research centers across the country that use a trans-disciplinary approach, bringing together scientists, educators and researchers working to find the causes of premature birth and how to prevent it. They especially look at factors that are hard or impossible to control, like genetics, ethnicity and working conditions.” By narrowing down which factors may be more likely to cause pre-term delivery, obstetric healthcare providers are better able to educate, monitor and treat their expecting patients. While an exact cause of premature birth is difficult to pin down, each evidence-based finding can help another baby thrive. Fundraising events like the upcoming Signature Chefs Auction for Greater Louisville on November 2, support this lofty but invaluable objective and give contributors a culinary occasion to remember. A city like Louisville, now recognized as a destination for great food lovers, provides an enticing list of participating restaurants. At the Louisville Marriott Downtown, Chef Joshua Moore of Volare will lead a lineup of over 25 local eateries providing delicious food, cocktails and auction
packages, all with compassion for the tiniest and most helpless among us. “Events like the Signature Chefs Auction help fund significant research on a national level, as well as support local programs like CenteringPregnancy and Healthy Babies are Worth the Wait, right here in Louisville,” says Rohrer. The March of Dimes leaves no stone unturned when it comes to babies in need and their worried parents. “One of our live auction packages will be a NICU holiday dinner. We’re teaming up with Texas Roadhouse to go into a local NICU during the holiday season to provide meals to parents who are often forgotten. It’s a nice way to show we’re thinking about them at a really challenging time.” March of Dimes has also established the Mom and Baby Relief Fund to provide aid to families affected by the recent catastrophic hurricanes. “You can go to our web site and donate to support the needs of expectant mothers, infants and children who need day-to-day products like diapers. Babies who were in NICUs in the affected areas have special needs that must be addressed.” Such is the March of Dimes’ credo. Every baby is deserving of the best care available, and no baby should be lost to preventable causes. VT

Business Briefs To submit your business brief email circulation@redpinmedia.com COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF LONG-TERM SAFETY STUDIES REAFFIRMS SMOOTH AND TEXTURED BREAST IMPLANTS AS SAFE AND IMPORTANT OPTION FOR PATIENTS UNDERGOING AESTHETIC OR RECONSTRUCTIVE BREAST SURGERY
demonstrated safety.
The broadest long-term review of safety results to date was published online recently in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal. The article is a comprehensive, first-ofits-kind review of current published data about all breast implants, and establishes their role as safe and important options for patients undergoing aesthetic or reconstructive breast surgery.
Homeownership remains a priority for younger consumers despite tight housing inventory and stiff competition for homes – conditions that are driving up prices in many markets. In Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ latest Homeowner Sentiment Survey released today by Berkshire Hathaway Parks & Weisberg Realtors, a full 71% of prospective homeowners – a demographic composed largely of Millennials – believe now is a good time to buy a home and 63% remain steadfast in their ideal preferences for a home.
Clinical data from all FDA-approved 10-year studies, including comparisons of smooth and textured and shaped and round breast implants, showed that the devices performed safely over the long-term. The authors discuss the long-term outcomes associated with breast implants including the leading cause of morbidity, capsular contracture and the evidence-based recommendations for reducing this risk. Additionally, the very rare, but important topic of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIAALCL) is reviewed including theories on pathogenesis. “This analysis reaffirms the importance of ensuring women have options available, along with the information they need to make educated choices about breast implants,” said Dr. Bradley Calobrace, one of the authors of the analysis. “Surgeons now have a wealth of data to evaluate when assessing and discussing the benefits and risks of smooth and textured implants with their patients.” The authors also noted that concern for the rare occurrence of BIA-ALCL has recently overshadowed the ability to have a fair and comprehensive discussion about textured implants, which have more than 30 years of
CONSUMERS ARE NAVIGATING TIDES OF THE U.S. REAL ESTATE MARKET IN BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY HOMESERVICES’ LATEST HOMEOWNER SENTIMENT SURVEY
Not surprisingly, consumers are gaining a deeper understanding of market conditions: 72% of prospective homebuyers acknowledge that homebuying has become increasingly competitive with a shortage of listings in many markets across the U.S.; 76% of prospective Millennial buyers expressed concern of overpaying for a home and 76% said finding a competitively priced home is a challenge. Several factors have contributed to the current housing shortage in many markets. For starters, new construction ground to a halt during the Great Recession while population growth and household formation continue to blossom. Builders are increasingly hitting stride on new construction projects in a wider range of price points but demand still outstrips supply in markets such as Miami, Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco. The vast Baby Boomer generation has contributed to the shortage as many are reluctant to sell. In the survey, 73% of Boomers said they hesitate to list their homes because home values are
rising. Another factor reflects convenience. Four out of five Boomers said they would rather not shop for a new property at the moment. “The world seems to be waiting on Millennials to make a move in all facets of their lives,” said Gino Blefari, president and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices. “Our data suggests younger generations remain very positive about homeownership and remain in the game in markets where competition for good, reasonably priced homes can be tough.” Blefari said rising home prices likely will move more Boomers off the fence as they retire, downsize and move to other markets. “Home values have mostly recovered from the downturn and homeowners may have more equity than they’re aware,” he explained. “Equity gives people latitude to make important changes in their lives.” “In the Louisville and Southern Indiana Markets, there is tremendous demand, especially in the more urban areas and around our average market price which is approaching the lower to mid $200,000 price range,” said Dave Parks, Broker owner of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Parks & Weisberg Realtors. Overall, consumer favorability toward real estate and its prospects remains high, as lower mortgage rates and the prospects of rising home values continue to buoy enthusiasm. A full 72% of current homeowners expressed a favorable feeling toward the real estate market, with 51% pointing to low mortgage rates and 44% citing price appreciation for their optimism. Respondents also showed a greater understanding of mortgage rates with 61% of prospective buyers and 63% of current homeowners expressing confidence in their knowledge of current rate levels, jumps of two and four percentage points, respectively, from the spring Homeowner Sentiment Survey.
BROWN-FORMAN RECOGNIZED FOR EXCEPTIONAL JOB CANDIDATE EXPERIENCE Brown-Forman was recently recognized as a 2017 North American Candidate Experience Award winner by Talent Board. The award recognized those organizations with an exceptional job candidate experience. As one of 50 Candidate Experience (CandE) Award winners in North America, Brown-Forman participated in a comprehensive two-round evaluation and analysis process and was found to have exemplary job candidate experiences from the candidates themselves. “It’s so exciting to see new companies elevate and promote a quality candidate experience. Brown-Forman had the highest positive candidate ratings overall in the 2017 North American CandE benchmark program. We usually do not share the ranking of any of our winners publicly, so it’s a testament to the amazing work their recruiting team is doing,” said Kevin Grossman, President of Global Programs at Talent Board. Talent Board is a non-profit organization focused on the promotion and benchmark research of a quality candidate experience. More than 200 companies registered to participate in the 2017 North American Awards program, which ultimately collected the thoughts and experiences of over 180,000 job candidates. “This award recognizes our strong talent acquisition team who care about BrownForman, our employees and our job candidates,” said Arelis Correa, BrownForman, director, global talent acquisition. “Our goal is for the job search and selection process experience at Brown-Forman to be reflective of our company culture and values. A positive candidate experience allows us to attract the best candidates and build a quality talent pipeline for current and future openings.”

SPOTLIGHT POWER OF 1 BREAKFAST
B Y J E N N I F E R H A N CO C K , PRESIDENT & CEO VOLUNTEERS OF AMERICA
Each year at our Power of One Breakfast, Volunteers of America tells the stories of the lives we change. Our theme this year was “Carry Each Other,” and we focused on a group that knows exactly what those words mean – our nation’s veterans. Our veterans carry each other and they carry all of us. Far too often, our veterans return from serving our nation with wounds both physical and emotional. All of those wounds are deserving of care, and Volunteers of America is there for them. More than 1,000 guests at the Galt House in Louisville heard from several veterans this year about how Volunteers of America helped them to get a fresh start after they
struggled readjusting to civilian life. We don’t think any veteran should ever worry about housing or health care. They should have a range of choices for educational and job opportunities. They served us and we are proud to serve them. We are so honored that so many elected officials, community partners and supporters joined us at this important event and share our commitment to making a difference in the lives of people we serve. We work throughout Kentucky and in Clark and Floyd Counties in Indiana as well as in Tennessee, West Virginia and Southern Ohio. For thousands of parents, children, veterans, persons with disabilities and so many
more, Volunteers of America is the place they count on in their time of need. At Volunteers of America, we experience the words WANT TO KNOW MORE of Winston ABOUT HOW YOU Churchill every CAN HELP? day. He said, “You make a WEBSITE living by what -----------------WWW.VOAMID.ORG you get, you make a life by FACEBOOK what you give.” INSTAGRAM We hope you will TWITTER connect with us ------------------@VOAMID and learn more about how you can be part of our mission.
