Meeker and Chairman William S. Farish 1999 Annual Report 3 1999 was the year in which our planning and our commitment to excellence resulted in outstanding progress for Churchill Downs Incorporated. Aided by strategic acquisitions, we achieved record financial results, we reinforced our leadership in the racing industry, and we continued our development of a comprehensive simulcast product. These accomplishments underscore the value of our four-prong business strategy, which continues to guide us as we embark on an era in our industry that will be defined by marketing innovations and technological advances. With progress comes change. Two years ago, our operations were centered in Indiana and Kentucky. We now have five racetracks in four states, including California and Florida. The acquisitions of Calder Race Course and Hollywood Park more than tripled the size of our Company’s assets. In 1997, we had a staff of 325 full-time employees; now we employ 1,000 people full time. To support this growth, the integration of our new properties and any future expansion plans, the Company has built a strong managerial infrastructure, and we are dedicating considerable energies to develop cohesiveness in our practices, which allows us to share resources effectively.

  • State Highway Department
    Description of WOrk of the State Highway Department in the Counties of the State 1923 -1924 BAKER COUNTY There was less activity in highway constructjon in Baker County dur- ing the biennium just past than in previousyears. However, the main trunk line highway known as the Old Oregon Trailwas completed during this period, and some work was doneon the Baker-Cornucopia and the Baker-Unity Highways. The work on the Baker-Cornucopia Highway involved theconstruction of the grade down the Powder River Canyon, which eliminated the high Sparta summit and materially improved existing communicationbetween the Eagle and Pine Valleys and Baker.However, there still remains a very bad section between Middle Bridge and Love Bridge, and the section between Black Bridge and Richland, through the Dry Gulch country, is impassable to automobile traffic during the spring of theyear. On the Baker-Unity Highway the gradeon both sides of Dooley Moun- tain was completed. Those who were forced to travel the old mountain grade, which was narrow, crooked, and in places reacheda gradient of 22 per cent, will appreciate traveling over thenew highway now open to traffic. The total length of grading completed in Baker County during the past biennium was 18.11 miles, of which 8.95 mileswere surfaced. in addition to this work there were 25.90 miles surveyed. The Baker County bond issue of 1918, amounting to $500,000,was in- sufficient to meet the State in cooperating to complete the state highways through the county, and on November 4, 1924,an additional $500,00G was voted to complete the Baker-Cornucopia and the Baker-Unity High- ways.

Over the past 60 years, the construction of dams has inundated, impeded, or blocke.d acces!, to spawning areas. Despite these heavy losses, large areas of spawning grounds in the middle and lower portions of the drainage are sti11 available to chinook salmon. Stream im­ provements by State and Federal fishery agencies have rehabilitated some areas and have brought others into production for the first time. Important spawning areas are listed and charted in this report according to their past use (before 1965) and present use (1966).

  • Churchill Downs and Keeneland Joint Venture Applies to Build $125 Million Racing Facility in Oak Grove, Kentucky
    Churchill Downs and Keeneland Joint Venture Applies to Build $125 Million Racing Facility in Oak Grove, Kentucky September 4, 2018 Proposed 2019 Standardbred Meet to be Hosted at old Louisville Downs Venue, with Future Meets to be Held at New Racing Facility in Oak Grove, Kentucky LEXINGTON, Ky., Sept. 04, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WKY Development, LLC – a joint venture between Churchill Downs Incorporated (“CDI”) (Nasdaq: CHDN) and Keeneland Association Inc. (“Keeneland”) – filed an application today with the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission (“KHRC”) requesting live standardbred racing dates at CDI’s old Louisville Downs racing venue located at Derby City Gaming (DCG) in Louisville for 2019 and in 2020 at its proposed venue in Oak Grove (Christian County). Proposed Facility in Christian County, KY This historic partnership between CDI and Keeneland is designed to strengthen and grow the standardbred racing circuit in Kentucky following last year’s closure of Thunder Ridge racetrack in Prestonsburg. The application is for a 10-day standardbred race meet in 2019 at CDI’s old Louisville Downs racing venue located at Derby City Gaming in Louisville. If approved, CDI and Keeneland will solely fund these purses as there has been no prior pari-mutuel activity to generate purse revenue for this meet. The 2019 meet is a critical, short-term measure to support the standardbred racing circuit and bridge the gap to future races in 2020 at the new Oak Grove racing venue. If approved by the KHRC, beginning in 2020, live standardbred racing would permanently move to the proposed Oak Grove venue in Christian County raising the profile of the Kentucky circuit and building larger purses in the process.

  • Deadlands Armory
    Rifles Part I. Muzzles, Muskets & Minié Balls Loading a Flintlock Rifle For the first part of the nineteenth century, professional armies fought with the same smooth- bore flintlock muskets as their fathers and grandfathers. It generally takes an experienced soldier between twenty and thirty seconds to properly load a flintlock musket. First, the user has to unseal his pre-measured cartridge of gunpowder, which is usually contained in a paper or linen packet which is bitten open. (Because of the salty nature of gunpowder, this builds up a terrible thirst over the course of a battle, making potable water an essential part of any armed conflict.) Once the gunpowder is poured into the muzzle, the shooter inserts the lead ball, which is encased in a lubricated bit of cloth called “wadding.” Pulling the ramrod from its forestock slot, the shooter tamps the ball home, ensuring firm contact with the propellant charge. The ramrod is then returned to the forestock—unless a panicked soldier leaves it inside the barrel, to be fired along with the bullet! To fire the musket, the hammer is pulled to half-cock. A small pinch of gunpowder is placed in the “priming pan” located on the right side of the musket. The pan is closed to secure the primer, which brings a metal flange called the “frizzen” into striking position in front of the hammer. The hammer is fully cocked, the musket is aimed, and the trigger is pulled. The hammer dashes the flint against the frizzen, simultaneously creating a spark and pushing open the pan to expose the primer.
