SWINGING FOR THE FENCES JEFFERSONTOWN YOUTH BASEBALL, SOFTBALL TEAMS EXPERIENCE RECORD-SETTING SUCCESS

10 U Girls

Writer / Shannon Siders

Jeffersontown Youth Baseball and Softball teams experienced recordsetting success this year, with three teams advancing to the World Series in their respective divisions.

The Jeffersontown 10U Girls Softball team, led by manager Jeremy Flanders, went 7-0 in the Babe Ruth Little League World Series to be crowned the champions of their division.

The squad was wildly dominant throughout their tournament run, outscoring their opponents 213-56 on their way to a 23-2 record across the Kentucky State Tournament, Ohio Valley Regional Tournament and the World Series. They recorded six shutouts throughout the three tournaments and allowed opponents to score two or fewer runs in six of their World Series victories.

“I’m extremely proud of the girls and all the hard work they put in this season,” Flanders says. “I’m very excited to see what the future holds for this incredible group of young ladies.”

In addition to the team’s success, four players received individual accolades. Rylee Carter was named Most Outstanding Player, Sarah Grace Morley was named to the All-Defensive team and Peyton Arnold, Lauren Campisano and Carter were named to the All-World Series Team.

The team was rounded out by players Kailee Flanders, Emilee Fuller, Caitlyn Nash, Madison Reed, Rylee Sandifer,

The Jeffersontown 12U Girls Softball team also had an impressive showing in the World Series, finishing third in the nation.

The team advanced to the World Series after suffering only one loss during the state tournament and going undefeated in the regional. They became the first 12U Jeffersontown Softball team to win the Kentucky State Championship, as well as the Ohio Valley Regional Championship.

The 12U team lost a very close game in the semi-finals of the World Series, falling by just two runs to the Patterson All-Stars.

The Patterson team went on to become the World Series champions.

“We had a wonderful group of talented young ladies that were just winners and prided themselves on being the best of the best,” says Manager Gary Ferrigno. “We used the phrase ‘refuse to lose,’ and they absolutely proved it was not only a phrase but an idea of how these young ladies played the game.

“We unfortunately just came up short in the end, but that was icing on the cake of an impressive and record-breaking 2017 AllStar season,” Ferrigno adds.

Ferrigno was joined by coaches Aaron Hughes, Mark Passanisi and Red Monroe, with players Caroline Campbell, Kaitlyn Chitwood, Anna Belle Ferrigno, Riley Gentry, Lacey Hughes, Cecilia Jones, Kennedy Lee, Jocelyn Lopez, Myla Matthews, Regan Monroe, Emma Passanisi and Addison Reeve.

Six players from the 12U All-Star team and three players from the 10U All-Star team were also a part of the back-to-back St. Edward CSAA 5th/6th grade City Champions team.

On the boys’ side, the Jeffersontown 12U Baseball team became the first Jeffersontown Youth Baseball team to ever qualify for the World Series. The team finished fifth in the United States and ninth overall in the 24-team tournament held 8 / JEFFERSONTOWN MAGAZINE / OCTOBER 2017 / JeffersontownMag.com

“The kids might not quite understand what they have achieved, but someday they will look back and know that they are the first baseball team from Jeffersontown, a league that started in the 1950s, to ever make it to the World Series,” says Manager Chris Rader.

Players Landon Akers, Michael Brewer, Kyle Campbell, Adam Campisano, Max Cherry, Bennett Egan, Ethan Elmore, Evan Hess, Landon Mallory, Kyle Malone, Hayden Rader and Camryn Warfield took the field for the team, led

by Rader and coaches Chris Mallory and Mike Malone.

“Out of the 12 players on the roster, 10 have been with Jeffersontown since they were eight years old,” Rader says.

“It was our goal when they were eight to make it to the World Series at 12. It was a dream come true.”

HALLOWEEN IN JEFFERSONTOWN P U M P K I N F E S T C O M I N G U P O C TO B E R 2 8 Writer / Beth Wilder, Director Jeffersontown Historical Museum

Halloween – the spookiest night of the year, when little ghosts and goblins are known to parade door to door in search of tricks or treats. But did you know that Jeffersontown youngsters did not even begin “trick-or-treating” until 1938?

It’s true.

The Jeffersontown Historical Museum is in possession of a costume worn by Zita Kay Elder that year, which she recalled as being the first time in Jeffersontown’s history that children ever went door to door in search of candy. The costume Zita Kay wore was relatively simple – it looked like a house dress and apron of the time, albeit with the head of a chicken to top it all off. Carole Chambers Davis, who donated a late 1940s

5-inch-high papier-mache pumpkin for gathering candy, noted that it was not very large, because “candy was a lot smaller then, and children didn’t get as much.”

Of course, in a rural area where one’s nearest neighbor could be a mile away, it is not very easy to go door to door looking for candy. Still at the time, Jeffersontown did have a handful of subdivisions,

including Gregg’s Addition, Jefferson Heights and Livingston Heights. Most residents in the early 1900s, however, attended parties such as the one thrown by Katherine Marshall in 1910, where she decorated her house with a profusion of grasses, autumn leaves and pumpkin lanterns. She had an old witch guarding the front door and a ghost walking around upstairs, while she and her friends played games and enjoyed hot chocolate, wafers, salted peanuts, fruits and candies until a late hour.

separate incidents wherein a cow and a buggy were somehow placed atop public buildings in Jeffersontown – she was a small child then, and had no idea how anyone was able to accomplish such feats. Having been born in 1916, Marcia never had the pleasure of being able to trick-or-treat around town, but her children did. They also attended the large community parties held on Halloween, where prizes would be awarded

for the best costumes.

Starting in 1951, the Jeffersontown Area Community Council held annual Halloween celebrations which included a parade, prizes for the best costumes and free refreshments. From dusk to parade time, children were free to trickor-treat in the area. At 8 p.m., a parade formed at the Jeffersontown School (where

According to a 2005 interview with local resident Marcia Bryan Horton, trick-or-treating in town began in response to the vandalism and “mean tricks” that tended to occur on Halloween night. She said she never knew what being “tic-tac-toed” was, but that it made a lot of noise on windows in town. She also recalled

Tully Elementary now stands) and was escorted by the police and Volunteer Fire Department. An hour later, the children returned to the school to enjoy refreshments served on the football field. The Halloween celebration was a community affair — arrangements were made to care for 500 children, and many organizations, local merchants and residents contributed generously to the event.

A 1952 a Jeffersonian article noted that “by sponsoring this type of program, we believe that we can keep vandalism to a minimum.” Fortunately, the follow-up article was able to report that it was the quietest Halloween in Jeffersontown in recent years – from the standpoint of vandalism – and that “most of the window soaping was done several days before the eve of November 1.” A 1953 article repeated the good news that the vandalism of previous years was down, and that “even the Post Office, long a target of window

soapers, escaped a smearing by pranksters.”

old to attend.

To this day, Jeffersontown hosts a wonderful party for its children – Pumpkinfest. This year, the celebration will take place Saturday, October 28, from 4:30 – 8:00 p.m. A great alternative to traditional trick-or treating, children can dress in costume and trick-or-treat along Historic Gaslight Square. There will be activities at the pavilion and the kids can enjoy hot dogs, chips and soft drinks.

New this year, the Family Movie Series continues the festivities at 6:15 with a movie to be announced.

Keith Age has been called “The Legendary Rock-n-Roll Ghost Hunter.” He is the Founder and President of the Louisville Ghost Hunters Society, with more than 30 years of experience in paranormal research, and he has been a professional musician even longer. Keith Age will transport you to Waverly Hills, one of the scariest places on Earth, with documented evidence taken during actual paranormal investigations. He will discuss the behind-the-scenes making of Spooked: The Ghosts of Waverly Hills Sanatorium and Children of the Grave, as well as present evidence found during their productions across the United States.

Expect to be astonished, frightened and gripped with the legendary work.

But before Pumpkinfest occurs, Jeffersontown Arts Program will present the 3rd Annual Ghost Stories Event with Keith Age, Friday, October 20, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. in the Ballroom of the Jeffersontown Senior Center at 10631 Watterson Trail.

M AY O R B I L L D I E R U F TA L K S FA M I LY, CO M M U N I T Y A N D L O C A L G OV E R N M E N T Much of Dieruf ’s outlook on serving the citizens of Jeffersontown comes from When Bill Dieruf became Mayor of his experience with the family business.

Jeffersontown in 2011, it came as a pleasant Dieruf Hardware opened in 1946, and and beneficial surprise for the town in which is Jeffersontown’s oldest family-owned he was born and raised. The Dieruf family business. Shortly after opening the has long been a fixture in Jeffersontown, hardware store, W.C. Dieruf Jr., Mayor both in business and community service.

Dieruf ’s father, began serving on the Jeffersontown Area Community Council, Dieruf first entered local government when and by 1955, he was its president. Dieruf he filled an empty seat on city council in took over operations of the store in 1985 2001. Although his original intent was not and proudly owned the business until his to become mayor, he seized the opportunity daughter and son-in-law took over when it came. in 2014.

Writer / Shannon Siders

“It was simply to be involved with the city, to give back,” says Dieruf on his decision to run for mayor. “You finally get to a point in life where it’s not a matter of how much money you make, or how big of a business you make, it’s about what you leave behind that matters. The fact that you’ve helped a person or helped a community matters more.”

“Whether it’s a five-cent nut or a $30,000 Bobcat, your problem is your problem and it needs to be solved,” Dieruf says. “And the main motto that I walked into [the mayor’s office] was the same thing we do at the store, ‘How can we help you?’ You can ask any employee of the city here, they know my slogan is, ‘How can I help you?’ and ‘How can we give you the wow

effect that government should give you?’”

One of Dieruf ’s goals has been to make local government more friendly and accessible, part of the ‘wow effect.’ He wants to make sure all of Jeffersontown’s public offices are operating with the best interests of the community in mind.

“The advantage of Jeffersontown is you can call the mayor’s office, you can get ahold of the mayor, and you can talk to him personally no matter who you are,” says Dieruf, who is frequently seen at events around town, including flipping pancakes at the Jeffersontown Farmers’ Market.

Dieruf feels he is especially approachable to Jeffersontown citizens, “because they see me as Bill Dieruf first and the mayor second.

They see me as somebody that possibly could help them and who has always been there for them at the hardware store when they needed help in the past.”

20 / JEFFERSONTOWN MAGAZINE / OCTOBER 2017 / JeffersontownMag.com

Technology and innovation has also been one of Dieruf ’s goals throughout both his stints in city council and terms as mayor.

In a 2002 Jeffersontown News-Leader interview, Dieruf stated his mission was to, “keep J-Town’s hometown friendly atmosphere, while pushing forward in the 21st century as one of the cutting-edge cities that is today.”

His first order of business as mayor was to create a user-friendly, interactive website for the City of Jeffersontown. The website (jeffersontownky.gov) provides easy access to information about every branch of the city government, as well as access to online forms to make doing business with the city much more convenient.

One of the mayor’s recent projects has been making the Bluegrass Commerce Park fiber-ready, allowing communications and electronic capabilities to progress.

The industrial park in Jeffersontown has always been second to none, and Dieruf

continues to encourage business growth throughout the city. Working together with the Jeffersontown Economic Development Authority, the mayor helps ensure needs of current and prospective businesses are met.

“A lot of people don’t realize that Jeffersontown is the eighth largest city in the state, and the second largest city in the state in the daytime,” Dieruf says. “We double in size because of the amount of businesses and employees that are here.”

Over 1,800 businesses have a presence in Jeffersontown, accounting for more than 33,000 employees. The Jeffersontown Occupation Business Savings program has incentivized businesses to move to Jeffersontown and led to an average pay scale of $63,500.

Community development is also of utmost importance to Dieruf, and he strives to make sure Jeffersontown is a great community. The city motto “Jeffersontown,

the best place to live, work and play” has resonated in every project carried out during Dieruf ’s six years as mayor.

“That is a slogan we want to live by as a city, as the people that make the decisions of where we’re going in the future,” Dieruf says. “We want to make it where the community is guided by the community, not just by one person. You buy into a community where you are part of the decision process.”

Dieruf recognizes the importance of providing events and programming that cater to a wide range of audiences. With that in mind, the Mayor established an Arts Program for the city in 2014, under the supervision of Rhonda Rowland. The program gives residents the opportunity to see performances by Shakespeare in the Park, Louisville Orchestra, Kentucky Opera, United States Air Force Band and various other musical groups right in their own town.

On a recent Friday evening, hundreds of people of all ages flocked to the Pavilion on the Square to hear a free show by local band Small Time Napoleon. Attendees enjoyed food trucks and many walked down the block to 3rd Turn Brewing, invigorating an area that would not have experienced as much traffic on a weekend evening just a couple years ago.

“It’s brought the town more alive,” Dieruf says.

“People are socializing beyond their phones and computers, and it gives them a reason to want to get out of the air conditioning and come down here to be with other people.”

Corresponding with his cultural outlook, Dieruf has encouraged the growth of the Jeffersontown Historical Museum. One of his first acts as mayor was to digitize the museum’s collection of old Jeffersonian newspapers so the public could have easy online access to the documents.

Veterans Memorial Park is also undergoing a much-needed renovation, including the addition of a new Memorial Plaza and memorial, a Tri-An Vietnam memorial monument, and a new allinclusive playground accessible to Jeffersontown residents of all ages and abilities.

“We are a firm believer that without our veterans, we wouldn’t have the ability to do what we do today,” Dieruf says. “We want the next generation to remember that.”

Recently, the Mayor oversaw the start of Town Square renovations, with flower boxes, benches and columns installed, as well as decorative walls exhibiting Jeffersontown’s more than 220 years of history. Visitors to Jeffersontown are greeted by archways promoting the Historic Gaslight Square District, and the intersection of Taylorsville Road and Watterson Trail now sports Jeffersontown’s distinctive gaslight logo in the pavement. Several major street corners now have electronic signage to keep residents informed about upcoming city events.

The mayor oversees the city’s Public Works Department, and makes sure the staff deals with problems that arise immediately, while continuing their day-to-day responsibilities. In addition to directing maintenance of the many roads and sidewalks in town (Dieruf noted the budget for re-pavement projects has been upped to around a million dollars from $200,000), 22 / JEFFERSONTOWN MAGAZINE / OCTOBER 2017 / JeffersontownMag.com

the Mayor has worked to expand the Gaslight Recreational Workplace and Pedestrian Trail System.

team wanted to transfer the community mindset.

There is no such thing as a typical day for the Mayor. He can be doing anything from meeting with one of the 18 boards on which he serves, talking about road pavement projects with public works, discussing the pension program, traveling to Frankfort to meet with state officials, meeting with business developers who want to open shop in Jeffersontown, talking to a citizen with a concern about their neighborhood — the list goes on and on.

“We want to expand that into the county and let the county realize we’re all in this together,” Dieruf says. “If something happens in your neighborhood it affects my neighborhood.”

Dieruf has stayed mum on his plans for the

future but says he likes to focus on adjusting his situation at any given time to point him toward the future.

“Twenty years from now people won’t know who I am, maybe two years from now people won’t know who I am,” Dieruf says. “But leaving behind a legacy, a familyfriendly community that people want to be a part of, that’s what’s important.”

“The reason I took this job, is whatever your problem is, it is the most important thing to you,” Mayor Dieruf says.

He takes care to ensure all problems that are brought to him are taken seriously, no matter who it’s from. The CEO of a large company gets the same attention as a typical citizen.

As president of the Jefferson County League of Cities, Dieruf collaborates with other leaders across the county to make widespread improvements.

“Each one of our cities is distinctive,” Dieruf says of the Louisville metro area.

“Not many places in the United States have that.”

Inspired by the sense of community in Jeffersontown, Dieruf sparked programming to help tear down the borders between various areas across Jefferson County.

There is a new vendors mall in J-Town

“Within Jefferson County, we live by the compass — west end, east end, south end,” Dieruf says. “The Community Without Borders brings all of our communities together to work together.”

The first step was to eliminate the compass mentality. Dieruf and his collaborators worked with the press to report news based on neighborhoods and not blanket areas of town. Because Jeffersontown residents have worked well together across boundaries, the

EASTPOINT AUDIOLOGY 502-528-3741 Eastpointaudiology.com

October is National Audiology Awareness Month and National Protect Your Hearing Month, and Dr. Melanie Driscoll and Dr. Kristin Lenz at Eastpoint Audiology are ready to help you improve your hearing. Graduates of the University of Louisville School of Medicine, both audiologists operate their practice under the mission that better hearing leads to a better life.

“No matter what we do in life, everything hinges around communication,” Dr. Driscoll says. “If we can’t hear or we have someone we’re trying to do something with and they can’t hear, then there is a disconnect. Until we can hear each other, we can’t communicate.”

Dr. Driscoll was inspired to enter the field of audiology after a friend’s daughter was born with no hearing and after spending time with a neighbor whose hearing issues negatively impacted his life.

“I wanted to figure out a way to help them,” she says.

Dr. Lenz became an audiologist for similar reasons, and was in part influenced by her mom who is a nurse.

“Communication is huge, and I love my interactions with people,” Dr. Lenz says. “So, when you think about how hard it is for people to miss general communications or the punchline to a joke, it can really take a toll on someone.”

One in five Americans experience hearing loss, and 80 percent of those who have issues do nothing about it. Dr. Driscoll noted that patients often wait years before seeking help and typically only do so after a family member or friend pressures them. Cost is often the biggest hindrance for a person delaying an appointment, along with being afraid of the results.

“There are ways we can help people get hearing aids who need them,” Dr. Driscoll says. “I don’t want anyone to ever think they can’t get the help they need because they don’t have the funds for the cost.”

If a hearing aid is needed, patients have many options. Some audiology practices choose to only work with one or two hearing aid manufacturers, but Eastpoint Audiology works with all of them.

The practice primarily serves the adult and geriatric populations, working with patients who need hearing aids or who have tinnitus (a ringing or buzzing in the ears). The doctors can also do mobile visits for patients living in assisted living facilities to help ease the burden of traveling to appointments.

Dr. Driscoll and Dr. Lenz both recommend everyone go through a hearing test to get a baseline of their condition. Children are

24 / JEFFERSONTOWN MAGAZINE / OCTOBER 2017 / JeffersontownMag.com

screened when entering kindergarten, but there typically isn’t a required screen at any other point in life.

“It’s so awesome being able to help people, and every single day one of them has a story to tell,” Dr. Lenz says.

“We have a lot of people who come in who have hearing loss and are under the age of 65,” Dr. Driscoll says. “So, if you think you have hearing loss or someone else has mentioned you might, now is the time to have a baseline audiogram done.”

The doctors encourage people of all ages to protect their hearing by taking precautions such as wearing hearing protection when mowing the grass, using loud machinery or attending concerts.

At the end of the day, both doctors agree that learning about their patients and interacting with them is the best part of their jobs.

“The look on someone’s face when you get their hearing aid in and they hear something they haven’t heard in a long time — even something as trivial as a piece of paper crumpling — that sound gets them so excited,” Dr. Lenz says.

She shared a story of a patient who thought there was an issue with a hearing aid she was recently fitted with, and the doctors discovered the strange sound she was hearing every few minutes was an automatic air freshener in her home. The woman had never heard the noise before and was amazed at how much her hearing had improved.

Eastpoint Audiology is open from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, or to request an appointment, please visit eastpointaudiology.com or call 502-528-3741.

A SCREAMING GOOD TIME The Legend at Pope Lick Haunted Attraction Brings Folklore to Life Writer / Christy Heitger-Ewing

The thrill of chills was instilled in Michael Book when he was just four years old and his uncle introduced him to horror movies and haunted houses. Though he had the pants scared off him, Book grew to love Halloween and horror. He even got sent to the school counselor as a kindergartener for drawing pictures of Freddy Krueger and his bloody glove. Teachers soon realized, however, that there was nothing menacing going on — only a child who was already outlining his future career path. By age 13, Book created a small haunted house and by 15, he was charging admission for his first commercial haunted house, which attracted thousands.

trestle, which extends 770 feet across Pope Lick Creek.

In 2015, Pope Lick Park opened inside the Parklands of Floyds Fork, the largest public park in Louisville. Book knew this was the prime location for his attraction, which he co-owns with Mike Kimzey. Last year all the pieces of the puzzle came together and they got it up and running.

“There are also a lot of freak show circus attractions within the event itself,” Book says.

One of the other legends is that the monster is really the twisted reincarnation of a farmer who sacrificed goats to gain Satanic powers. Therefore, another part of the attraction involves entering a barn full of “slaughtered goats.”

“One of the unique aspects of this haunted experience, outside of the folklore itself, is that everyone goes through it holding a flashlight,” says Book, noting that it’s no ordinary luminescent device. “This one The most prominent tale is that years ago a interacts with the event. It turns off and on circus train carrying passengers in the freak as you walk, sometimes changes colors, and As an adult, Book created Louisville there are some other surprises thrown in show was crossing Pope Lick Creek when Halloween, which lists all the fear-inducing the car was struck by lightning during there as well.” attractions in the area. Book also had an idea a terrible thunderstorm and derailed, that had been brewing in the back of his killing the majority of those onboard. The Rod Whitenack, Senior Editor for the mind for many years.

Goat Man (aka: the Pope Lick Monster), Louisville Halloween website, provides however, along with some of the other content for the Pope Lick attraction’s “I’ve always wanted to do something circus freaks, survived the crash and website (louisvillehalloween.com/ themed around the Goat Man and the escaped into the woods. Those who dare legend-at-pope-lick/). Having grown up in legend of the Pope Lick Monster,” Book to take this walking tour will encounter Jeffersontown, he’s intensely familiar with says. The Pope Lick Monster is said to these characters amidst a forest full of the legend. be part-man, part-goat and lives beneath cedar trees, all clumped together to cast the 90-ft. high Norfolk Southern Railway spooky shadows.

“The first time I heard the story was from Because so many variations of stories surrounding the tale of the Pope Lick Monster exist, this unique attraction encapsulates them all.

a girl who lived next door. I was six years old, and when she mentioned the Pope Lick Monster, my ears perked up,” recalls Whitenack, who became captivated with the many tales, one of which is a Lover’s Lane type of story that claims the Goat Man is a savage character with red glowing eyes who will chase anyone who drives beneath the trestle after midnight during a full moon.

“Legend states that he can run up to 60 mph and that he can hypnotize his victims,” Whitenack says. “As teenagers, we’d take girls up there and tell them these stories to try and scare them. It was a major high school thing to do.”

So much intrigue surrounds this folklore that short films, stage plays and even Discovery channel documentaries have been made about the Pope Lick Monster.

Locally, stories about the Goat Man have swirled around Jeffersontown for decades.

“Anyone interested in ghost stories, urban legends, and monster movies are fascinated by it,” Whitenack says. “The Pope Lick Monster is kind of like our Bigfoot.”

Book agrees. “If you can see something that possibly exists, then people are naturally going to flock to it,” he says.

The walking tour can take anywhere from 5 to 40 minutes to complete, depending on your speed and your nerves.

“Everybody walks differently or runs differently, as the case may be,” Book says with a chuckle. “It really depends on how scared people get and how fast they go through the woods.”

The $20-per-person attraction runs every Friday and Saturday through October 28 with tours starting around 8:30 p.m. Patrons are spilt into groups of two to eight.

“We keep the groups small to make the experience as intimate as possible. It’s scarier that way,” Book says. “Think about it.

Wandering through the pitch-black woods with a flashlight is way more frightening if you’re surrounded by just a few people rather than a group of 50.”

Book speaks from personal experience, recalling the chilling night when he and his team were out in the woods cutting trails for the attraction.

“Most of us work day jobs so we were out there in the middle of the night. It was crazy dark and suddenly the birds high up in the trees started going crazy, flapping their wings,” Book says. “There was all this fluttering and trees limbs were falling. It was really strange.”

Creepier still, was the night when they were deep in the forest and heard a snorting sound 20 feet away.

“It would walk around, then more snorting,” Book says. “It was probably just a deer, but I don’t really know because we had head

lamps on and flashlights in our hands and never saw anything.”

Now that the attraction is open to the public, others get to experience the delight of the fright. Reviews have been overwhelmingly positive.

“People say this is one of the best haunted attractions they’ve ever seen,” Book says.

“In fact, last year a 12-year-old kid came with his grandfather and was scared out of his mind. But he loved it so much that he asked his grandpa to bring him back every weekend after that. When I talked to him, it was his fourth time through.”

Tragically, through the years various people have gotten injured and even killed in their quest to explore this legend on their own.

A perk of this haunted experience is that it

provides the public with a safe outlet to seek that legend without venturing anywhere near the trestle.

“People can satiate that desire to come face-to-face with the Goat Man and not put themselves in harm’s way,” Book says.

Whitenack maintains that the great thing about the Pope Lick Monster is that it gives folks an escape from mundane life and daily stressors and allows imaginations to run wild.

“The idea of the supernatural, the paranormal, the unexplainable adds a little magic and mystery to our lives,” Whitenack says. “That’s one of the reasons why these types of stories will never go away and why this attraction is so popular.”

Note of warning: Please stay away from the Pope Lick railroad trestle, a no-trespassing area. Trains still cross it regularly, and it’s not safe or legal to go near the dangerous trestle. If you are curious about the Pope Lick Monster, the Legend at Pope Lick attraction will take you into the depths of the legend of the Goat Man.

Boogie down for a good cause on Friday, October 27, as the Jeffersontown Community Center transforms into Studio 54 for the night. The fundraiser benefits Blessings in a Backpack, a charity organization that aims to solve the issue of childhood hunger.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and guests are invited to mix and mingle while checking out the silent auction and 50/50 raffle.

Some exciting items up for bid include a Trifecta Package from Churchill Downs and a one-of-a-kind Derby hat. There will also be spa packages, sports packages and tickets to local attractions.

The dance floor opens at 8 p.m. with 1970’s-fueled entertainment provided by Jeffersontown-based Sounds Around Towne.

They will resurrect funk, R&B and disco hits from the Bee Gees, Gloria Gaynor, KC and The Sunshine Band and many more until the event wraps up at midnight.

Organizers expect a crowd of at least 300 to dance the night away and want attendees to show up in costumes from the Studio 54 era to complete the 1970’s vibe of the event.

“We want everyone to throw on those polyester jumpsuits and bell bottoms,” says Deanna Cox, one of the organizers. “We love Halloween, we love to dress up, and we hope everyone gets into the spirit.”

The catchy tunes and great beats are another bonus of the Studio 54 theme.

30 / JEFFERSONTOWN MAGAZINE / OCTOBER 2017 / JeffersontownMag.com

“Everyone loves the music from that time, it’s dancing music,” says Cox, whose husband Scott is the DJ for the event. “When you play the ‘Y.M.C.A.’ everyone puts their hands up.

It doesn’t matter how old or young you are, everyone knows that song.”

Cox first became involved with Blessings in a Backpack seven years ago through her work with the Kentucky Festival Pageant Association. She connects pageant title winners with local and regional volunteer opportunities to help the girls give back and develop a sense of humbleness.

“It’s more than just about the crown, the title, the cash, it has to be about the servant’s heart,” Cox says. “The girls know when they win a title, even when they’re three or four years old, they must perform community service.”

projects, and kept coming back when they saw the great impact their time had on local children in need.

“If a child is fed, they function better,” Cox says. “To have the ability to give back to make sure every child has something to eat on the weekends so they can concentrate in school is invaluable.”

One in five American children do not have reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food. Schoolprovided meals are sometimes the only guaranteed meal children have for the week. When the school closes its doors on Friday afternoon, many of these children go home to empty cupboards and empty bellies for 65 hours until they return to school on Monday morning.

As a leader in the movement to end The pageant group volunteered for Blessings childhood hunger, Blessings in a Backpack strives to ensure children don’t go in a Backpack at Engelhard Elementary hungry on the weekends by empowering in downtown Louisville as one of their

individuals and communities to take action. A donation of just $100 can provide a child with weekend meals for one 38week school year through Blessings in a Backpack. The organization is a 501(c)(3), and every donated item is considered a taxdeductible gift.

Blessings in a Backpack started with just two schools in 2005. The Louisvillebased organization now serves nearly 90,000 students in more than 1,000 schools across 47 states and the District of Columbia. Student surveys conducted after the implementation of the program found that, in addition to easing weekend hunger pains, students benefited by Blessings in a Backpack overwhelmingly said it was easier for them to learn, they did not get in as much trouble, and their attendance improved.

Adrianne Morse, Michele Rodriquez, Misty Roller, Kevin Swansey and Andre Wilson (emcee). They all got involved out of a want to provide for less fortunate children in the community.

“We could not imagine not being able to feed our children on the weekends,” said Cox. “And when children are fed physically, they are more attune to their homework and can pay better attention in the classroom.”

Tickets are $20 per person for the 21 and over event, and there will be a cash bar on site. Organizers hope to raise at least $6,000 for the event, which would help fund access to Blessings in a Backpack for around 60 students in need.

SILO CENTER BIKE PARK OPENS TO PUBLIC NEW LOUISVILLE ATTRACTION FOR BEGINNER AND EXPERIENCED MOUNTAIN BIKE RIDERS Right outside of Jeffersontown, the newest outdoor attraction at The Parklands of Floyds Fork, the Silo Center Bike Park in Turkey Run Park opened on September 15. The bike park contains downhill flow trails, a skills loop and pump tracks, all specially built by the talented professionals at the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA).

Bike park amenities offer beginners a smooth introduction and opportunities that are more challenging for experienced riders.

Visitors can go at their own pace, testing and improving riding abilities using the skills loop and beginner pump track working their way up to more-difficult flow trails and an intermediate pump track.

“Twenty First Century Parks worked with IMBA to design an exciting, progressive set of mountain biking trails and features that will introduce new riders to the sport as well as allow experienced riders to practice and develop skills,” says 21st Century Parks CEO Dan Jones.

Hours for the Silo Center Bike Park will be 10 a.m. – sunset throughout the fall season. Riders should anticipate occasional temporary closures for trail maintenance and in the event of inclement weather.

The bike park will close for the winter on Monday, November 20.

Trails and amenities within the bike park are for bikes only. Pedestrians and pets are not permitted on the trails, pump tracks or skills loop. For the safety and enjoyment of all, riders should come prepared with the appropriate safety equipment, including a helmet, and follow all bike park rules.

A full list of rules is posted at the main entrance of the bike park as well as online at theparklands.org/bikepark.

All areas of The Parklands, including Silo Center Bike Park, are free and open to all thanks to donations from the community.
