  • This Region, Centered Around Lexington, Is Known for Its Bluegrass. However, Bluegrass Is Not Really Blue — It's Green
    N O I G E R S S A R G E U L B This region, centered around Lexington, is known for its bluegrass. However, bluegrass is not really blue — it’s green. In the spring, bluegrass produces bluish-purple buds that when seen in large fields give a rich blue cast to the grass. Today those large “bluegrass” fields are home to some of the best known horse farms in the world. With more than 500 horse farms in and around Lexington, the area is known as the Horse Capital of the World.

  • The Blue Grass Trust for Historic Preservation Annual Awards 2020
    THE BLUE GRASS TRUST FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION ANNUAL AWARDS 2020 PRESERVATION CRAFTSMAN AWARD Given to a building industry craftsman who has exhibited a strong commitment to quality craftsmanship for historic buildings. GRANT LOGAN COPPER COPPER STEEPLE RESTORATION 1ST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Grant Logan Copper specializes in custom copper and sheet-metal fabrication on both new and historic buildings. Grant Logan, of Nicholasville, re-clad the steeple on First Presbyterian Church with copper sheeting. The historic church at 174 North Mill was built in 1872 by prominent local architect Cincinnatus Shryock and is listed on the Na- tional Register of Historic Places. Each piece of copper on the steeple had to be measured, shaped and cut by hand. Adding to the chal- lenge, work to remove the old metal sheeting, repair the wooden structure of the steeple, and then attach the new copper had to be done from a lift. As work neared the top of the 175 foot steeple, the lift was not tall enough to reach the top. Grant and his workmen had to build a ladder and attach it to the steeple to finish the last 15 feet. PUBLIC SERVICE TO PRESERVATION AWARD Given to a government agency or official for service to preservation movement or to a specific project. PURCHASE OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS PROGRAM- LFUCG The Lexington Fayette Urban County Gov- ernment’s Purchase of Development Rights (PDR) Program is turning twenty this year. The programs mission is to preserve central Kentucky’s farmland by preventing future development from occurring on participat- ing properties. In addition to protecting our natural resources, it also is a friend of historic preservation by encouraging owners to pre- serve and maintain historic aspects of their farmland, such as stone fences and outbuild- ings.

  • A Chapter Ends Camp Shalom Swims Through 2017 Program Changes
    Volume XVI Issue 6 Av/Elul 5777 August 2017 A chapter ends By Barbara Goldman, Shalom Editor A lot has happened throughout my three-year journey with Shalom, both on a personal level as well as a global level. Both have certainly had their effect. Along with editing Shalom, my food column in the Ledger Independent (a northern Kentucky newspaper), and a few other writing gigs, my time has been spent working as a café chef, personal chef, caterer, and about anything else food-wise I could sink my teeth into. About six months ago I began a new adventure as a food truck owner, Babz Bistro. The food truck has already exceeded my expectations with the joy and freedom it is providing me. However, due to the time and demand of this new course, I will no longer be able to continue my position as Shalom editor. This decision did not come easily. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect this experience to exceed my expectations so greatly. I was never fully aware of how many lives this amazing organization touched, and if being truthful, how many individuals and hours are constantly involved in maintaining daily operations. As we each walk through life, it is so important to surround ourselves with mentors, people who are not only greater than us, but keep their clarity of mind and wits regardless of life’s challenges. Mentors help us so that we may set goals and blueprints for achieving our own personal greatness. The editorial board and the Federation staff have been constant mentors for me.
