Photo by Jesse Osbourne Student faces new challenges ahead Gerald Settles, Kandra McGinnis and David Hartley, all staying at 142 Country View Lane, Apartment #15, were arrested that morning and booked at Marion County Detention Center later that afternoon. Jerry and Betty Blandford are listed as the owners of the apartment complex, according to records at the Washington County PVA office. According to those records, the property was purchased in 1997 and development started the same year. The location is now home to three single-story apartment complexes. Country View Lane is located off of Riverview, which is just off of Tick Creek Road. Apartment residents were brought outside during the bust, and stayed outside for several hours while the investigation continued.

The 17-year-old has been at Washington County High School for the last two years, but now he’ll move on to a school that is structured more toward his needs. John was diagnosed with autism when he was two years old, and since that time, the Harmons have faced numerous challenges. The newest will be John’s move to Stewart Home School in Frankfort, but it will also be a great opportunity. “The Washington County school system has been so good to us, but there’s only so much they can provide,” Kim said. “It’s a small community and we don’t have the luxury of magnet schools that are designed for children like John.” See SCHOOL, Page A6 Brian Powers won the inaugural Junior Mister competition on Saturday night at Washington County High School.

SPRINGFIELD 805 Bardstown Rd., Springfield, KY 40069 The Springfield Sun • April 25, 2012 WWW.READTHESUN.COM • A3 School board reviews lunch price increase By Jesse Osbourne Sun Editor The Washington County school board is reviewing a possible lunch price increase. Regina Hood, food services director for Washington County Schools, spoke to the board on April 16 during the regular scheduled meeting, which was held at the Elizabethtown Community and Technical College campus in Springfield. Hood submitted two different proposals for the school board. One included a 10-cent raise, the other a 15-cent raise. She told the board that she recommended the 15-cent increase to make up the difference required for not raising prices last year. Superintendent Robin Cochran said that the item would likely be included for a vote on the agenda during a special-called meeting on May 2. The meeting time is set for 4 p.m. Special recognition Several students were recognized at the school board meeting. Five students were recently announced as Governor Scholars. They are Maegan Satterly, Will Begley, David Haydon, Callah Kimball and Candace Kimball. Sarah Raikes, the advi- sor for FCCLA, said the high school chapter attended the state convention in Louisville recently. For the seventh year in a row, she said, the WCHS chapter was the largest in the state. “Just to give you an idea, we’re not, by any means, the largest school in the state,” she said. The region Washington County belongs to, she said, contains 500 students. Washington County High School accounts for 275 of those students. Numerous students received various awards. Five students qualified for nationals in Orlando this summer. They are Tori Lawson, Taylor Blandford, Carey Elliott, Ashley Spalding and Cherokee Reid. Katie Cambron, a Washington County student, served as the state chapter president for the past year. David Haydon, another WCHS student, was elected at the state level as vice president of membership for the next year. - In other news at the school board meeting, the board approved a $13,000 bid from Simon & Company, PSC, a Louisville company, for the auditing contract for 2012-2013. The previous audit was performed by White and Company in Lebanon. Hood said the ‘Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids’ act was passed by Congress in 2010. “It requires school nutrition programs throughout the whole United States to begin moving towards charging a paid-meal student a price that is equal to the difference between a free-meal reimbursement and a paid-meal reimbursement,” she said. Currently, she said, Washington County is falling 54 cents short. “Meaning that they are receiving 54 cents more for a free meal from the federal government than they are for what they are charging a paid student,” she said. To be in compliance for school year 2012-13, Hood said a 13-cent increase is suggested, however, a 10-cent cap is required. If the board elects to raise prices higher than 10 cents, then the increase will make up for not raising prices last school year. Hood said prices weren’t increased last year because the changes were announced too soon prior to the school year. She added that all the surrounding counties plan to increase prices. She also gave the board information on rising food prices. From 2009 through 2011, the price of hot dogs have increased 51 percent, ground beef is up 45 percent, peanut butter seven percent and a raw potato is up 49 percent, she said. Meth SAVE .70¢ PER LB. Continued from A1 pets played around the complex during the search. Police also searched a dumpster that was located between two of the apartment buildings. Garbage bags were removed and searched. Items needed to manufacture meth were found. Settles, McGinnis and Hartley remained in custody at the Marion County Detention Center as of Monday afternoon. Settles has a long history of criminal offenses, according to his CourtNet file. FAMILY PAK! OVER 80 ITEMS TO CHOOSE FROM! SAVE $1 PER LB. He has faced 117 charges dating back to 1991, according to the file. It’s possible that more charges go further back but don’t show up in the CourtNet system. He was charged on March 28, less than a month ago, for fourth-degree assault. The charge stemmed from an injury to a minor in a domestic violence dispute at the same apartment as the meth lab bust. His bond conditions included no new arrests or violations, not to consume any alcohol or illegal drugs, not to possess any weapons and no contact with the alleged victim or complaining witness. That case is still pending. According to the Kentucky Court of Justice website, Settles is scheduled for arraignment at 1 p.m. on April 30. Settles pleaded guilty to a meth-related charge in Anderson County on Nov. 22, 2011. He was placed on probation. In March of 2011, he pleaded guilty to DUI, reckless driving and driving on a DUI-suspended license in Hart County. He’s also pleaded guilty in various counties to possessing a controlled substance not in the original container, second-degree wanton endangerment, receiving stolen property, possession of marijuana and trafficking a controlled substance within 1000 yards of a school.

I still serve to this day. I’ve held many jobs over the past decades but now I teach and recruit for the Army’s Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC). Last Saturday I was out recruiting at St. Catharine College’s Military Appreciation Day by manning a table with some recruiting giveaways, when I ran into one of the Army’s most mortal enemies walking freely about on that campus. You know who I’m talking about. It was a, dare I say the foul name in a family newspaper, Marine. Actually, it was proud, retired Marine Peter Boone, who is now a manager at Toyotomi in Springfield. Peter is living proof of the old saying “Once a Marine (with a big M), always a Marine.” Actually, Peter was quite friendly and interested in how I identified potential officers and recruited them. I told him “Well, first of all, everyone wants to be a part of the greatest fighting force the world has ever known and it makes recruiting a lot easier.” Peter responded, “I know that, but we’re talking about the Army, not the Marines.” I like a good jest as much as the next man, but Peter seemed genuinely confused as I rolled around on the floor laughing at that statement. “Peter, Peter, quit it! You’re killing me! Give me a warning when you’re going to get a good one like that off in the future so I don’t die laughing! Ain’t the Marine Corps just part of the Navy anyway?” “Nah, they just provide transportation.” “Well, anyway, the second thing you have to do is match a prospective officer candidate with skills he already has to career fields in the army. A good match will get you a good ROTC Cadet every time.” I decided to show Peter a good recruiter in action. Cindy told me that twelve young men from WCHS were competing in something called the “Washington County High School Junior Mister” contest. Peter that?” asked “What’s “I don’t know, but they’re high school seniors that demonstrate their talents and level of fitness during the program. When I’m through observing them, I’m going to find some fine new candidates for ROTC.” We got to the high school gym and watched them go through some physical fitness routines first. They did some pushups, jumping jacks and then high kicks. High kicks?!? Peter looked on puzzled and said, “Does the army do high kicks in their physical fitness program?’ “No, but it could come in handy.” “For officers?” “Well, maybe not officers, but I can see from watching Brian Powers and Trae Abell that they would make excellent drill sergeants.” “How so?” “A good drill sergeant needs to know how to kick people in the tail, and one good kick like that would convince all the other guys to get to work.” Marty Wabnitz came out and did a flag routine. “Signal corps.” “True enough.” We went on to watch Rogelio Garza come on stage with dark sunglasses and tapping a cane around on the floor. He made his way to a piano in the center of the stage. He kept raising his hands up trying to work up the crowd before he sat down at the piano. He played that piano with hands, legs and behind while lip syncing a Ray Charles song. Unfortunately, he had his back to the audience and was facing the curtain as he did all this. Tyler Coulter looked like he was singing “Pocahontas,” but actually I believe I detected the voice of Lizzy Graves behind the stage curtain. He was obviously using deception and attempting to cheat in the competition. “OK Begley, where would you put him?” “Borderline, but helicopter pilot.” “Minefield team.” Matthew Goode did a cheer routine, in a cheerleader outfit, to the song “Micky.” detection “Hey, the guy looked blind up there.” “I know, but tapping the ground with that cane will find a lot of mines fast. It’s better than plugging your ears with your fingers and stomping the ground with your feet like you Marines do.” Later, we saw Taylor Wheatley come out on the stage with an umbrella and rain boots on. He then began to sing “It’s Raining Men.” All the other guys would jump out and start gyrating to the song during the chorus, which seemed to excite the women greatly. “What dude?” A4 about this “Meteorologist.” “What about the gyrating guys?” “No comment.” Connor Riney came out dressed in a long tail tux and sat down at a piano where he played “Chop Sticks.” “Don’t tell me. band?” Army “You’re getting good, Peter. You too can be a recruiter.” “Judge Advocate General‘s Corps (Army lawyer).” Trae Abell did a dance routine with big, pink wings to the song “I Believe I Can Fly.” “Reject. Can’t place them all. We do have our limits.” Anyway, I think I left Peter pretty darn impressed with my recruiting ability. I know he left me in the parking lot. One too many Marine jokes, I guess. But, I’m used to it. Cindy does it all the time. (Writer’s note. My hat is off to the great comedy takeoff on the “Junior Miss Competition” done by Trae Abell, Payton Carrico, Tyler Coulter, Kyle Curtsinger, Rogelio Garza, Matthew Goode, Josh Jackson, Brian Powers, Connor Riney, Marty Wabnitz, Ken Weir, and Taylor Wheatley, who put on a great laugh fest for the town and in the process raised over $2,700 for the Relay For Life fight against cancer. The rest of the article where I was talking with Peter Boone is true except for the parts I made up, exaggerated, or lied about. Hey Peter: Semper Fi.) Dear Editor, According to the most recent Centers for Disease Control report it is estimated that 1 in 88 children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life, and impacts an individual’s ability to communicate and interact with others. According to the April 2008 issue of Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, each individual with autism accrues about $3.2 million in costs to society over his or her lifetime, with lost productivity and adult care being the most expensive components. Parent-to-parent support is very important in raising a child diagnosed with autism. There is an autism parent support group for families affected by autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in Washington County. This group is open for attendance by parents and caregivers of children and adults with ASD. The purpose of this group is to help parents cope with the issues faced in raising children diagnosed with ASD. Support (WAGS) can contact Katie Essex at 3360059 or kentuckylady@ bellsouth.net for more information. Besides myself, I personally know of at least 10 other parents that have children here in Washington County affected by ASD. I am sure there are more that I do not know. I find that a staggering number for our small community. We are trying to bring awareness of autism to the community on Saturday, April 28 from 1-4 at River of Life Church. WAGS will be hosting its 3rd annual autism awareness fair and walk. Everyone in the community is invited to attend. There will be games for kids, a silent auction, and information about autism. Supports for individuals with autism are available on a statewide level through the Kentucky Autism Training Center (KATC). The mission of the KATC is to strengthen our state’s systems of support for persons affected by autism by bridging research to practice and by providing training and resources to families and professionals. KATC is committed to improving the quality of life for those affected by ASD. Our meetings are held each month and feature speakers and discussion to provide information and support to assist parents as they care for their child with special needs.

Those interested in joining Washington County Autism Group of Springfield Katie Essex In our view Junior Mister a huge hit - keep the program going If you didn’t make it to Washington County High School on Saturday night, you missed out. What did you miss? Well, there was a band of boys that made a commitment to act silly to raise money for a worthy cause - Relay for Life. Around $3,000 was raised from the event, all of which will go toward fighting cancer, something most or all of us have had some contact with through personal experience or friends and family members. One of our editorial board members commented how the event was worth the $5 per person price tag, equating to a cheap date full of a lot of laughs. Several people, including the event emcee, Debbie McIntosh, said it was funny to see these young men, many of whom have played sports since an early age, put on such a show. We think it’s a creative way to raise money for charity. A big kudos to the participants and everyone else who put in the hours to make the event happen. Without all the free labor, that money doesn’t get raised. McIntosh said during the event that the participants prepared for over a month for the evening. That’s no small task. Before and after the event, the community was abuzz. One of our editorial board members heard conversations about it while out covering other events. Another employee said she heard people talking about it at church. Where ever you went, there it was. We liked the idea of having individual jars set aside so that audience members could donate money to their favorite performer. It’s a good catalyst for competition and the winner gets named the audience’s favorite. There was a good crowd, but there was still room for more folks to pile in. If you were on the fence about going this year, make sure to attend next year if Junior Mister survives. There must have been a lot of proud dads, seriously, because of their sons’ sacrifice to raise money for charity. One editorial board member said she spotted a very young man, age 4, in the audience imitating the fellas on stage. Let’s hope it continues on for years so that young man will have his chance to act like a fool for a worthy cause. So, from the Springfield Sun editorial board, keep up the good work. We know you worked hard and we hope to see the program continue. For other organizations and groups out there looking to raise money for a cause, take note. The students and teachers involved with this program outdid themselves this time. And, for the young men who dressed up like cheerleaders, donned pink fairy wings or went through grueling fitness routines, a big hats off to you. We saw a side of you that we’ve never seen before and it was quite entertaining. The editorial board consists of Shorty Lassiter (general manager), Brandon Mattingly (sports and news reporter) and Jesse Osbourne (editor). Occasionally we will share our collective view about topics in the community. Letters to the Editor Policies The Springfield Sun welcomes letters to the Editor on topics of public interest.

Washington County is set to receive a total of $3.6 million over the next two fiscal years. In fiscal year 2012, the county is set to receive over $1.1 million. In fiscal year 2013, over $2.4 million was earmarked. Ac c o r d i n g to Washington County JudgeExecutive John Settles, the projects involve replacing the bridge over Cartwright Creek on US 150 in Fredericktown, as well as rehabilitating the Beech Fork covered bridge. According to the 2012-2018 biennial highway construction plan, $195,000 is set aside for the Fredericktown bridge in 2012. Settles said the money will be used for design and right-of-way acquisition. In the second year, $2.4 million is set aside for construction. Settles said the bridge on the U.S. 150 on the Nelson County side is being replaced, as well. “We suppose that the Nelson County project will do the same, so those bridges, more than likely, will probably be designed, right-of-way acquired and constructed all at the same time,” Settles said. “Even though one of them is in Nelson County, it’s going to directly affect Washington County.” He said the bridges are, he has been assured many times, a part of a master plan for realignment and redevelopment of US 150. According to the road plan, $955,960 of federal money is earmarked for the covered bridge in fiscal year 2012. That money is the second phase in a rehabilitation project on the bridge. “There was another phase that was $288,000, that was earmarked in 2007,” Settles said. That money, he said, was used for environmental study, environmental impact and design. He said the current grant money requires a 20 percent match. The details of who has to come up with the match are still being discussed, he said. The current grant will be used for construction, he said. The money for the project is available, he said, it just has to be activated by the state transportation cabinet. He said he’s hoping there will be local input on the construction aspect of the project. Settles said that safety improvement projects are also occurring in the county, but don’t show up in the highway construction plan. get on the six-year road plan,” he said. Settles also said that a section of KY 555 is going to be resurfaced. “It’s just past the Beech bridge on to the (KY) 53 bridge, where it’s just really unraveling and coming apart,” he said. “Those projects are kind of routine maintenance and they don’t show up in the (highway construction plan) budget.” He added that he was concerned about the rough nature of the Bluegrass Parkway in Washington County. “The Nelson County portion of the Bluegrass Parkway will be rehabilitated,” Settles said. “The Washington County section is next, so that really won’t happen, the way I understand it, won’t happen in this year.” It could happen as early as next summer, he said, or by the next spring. “It is on the horizon, but it’s just farther out than what some of us would have liked to see,” he said. He said the state has been working on US 150 because of the dangerous and deadly nature of the route. Washington County, which had a population of 11,717 in the 2010 census, is receiving $310.74 per person in the highway construction plan. “They did go through there and open it up, cutting trees and all that,” he said. That is the lowest dollar amount per person among the five counties that border Washington County. He added that the state was going to also widen the shoulders by three feet on each side, which will also cause them to move the ditches back. They’ll also add rumble strips, he said. Marion County, which shares a state senator with Washington County in Jimmy Higdon, received the most money per person ($1,224.52) among the bordering counties. Settles said he and others were hoping that the reconstruction of US 150 would be moved along because of its importance on the Washington County economy, but “you can only expect so much,” he said. Nelson County received the second-most money per person at $855.29. Higdon also represents Nelson in the state senate. “I’m pleased that it did Anderson County was the second-lowest, receiving $347.78 per person. Anderson is represented by Negotiations underway between city, Lions Club By Jesse Osbourne Sun Editor A question raised during the March Springfield City Council meeting has prompted negotiations between the city and the local chapter of the Lions Club. During the March meeting, council member Brooke Coulter asked if a written agreement could be established between the city and the non-profit organization. The Lions Club has provided the labor, inventory and equipment for the concession stand at Idle Hour Park for several years. At the end of each season, the city receives donations from the organization. Coulter said she asked the mayor and council about an agreement so she would have an answer prepared for other groups that See CITY, Page A6 Recognizing Kim King in the house and Julian Carroll in the senate. According to the numbers, size doesn’t necessarily mean less state money for projects. Three similar-sized counties, Metcalfe, Monroe and Owen, all received substantially more money than Washington County. Metcalfe (population 10,099) will receive nearly $37.1 million, or $3,673.13 per person. Owen County (population 10,841) will receive $36.6 million, or $3,377.91 per person. Monroe County (population 10,963) will receive $28.5 million, or $2,603.11 per person. Simms & Montgomery, Inc.

She said having her son away from home five days a week will be difficult, but she and her husband know how instrumental this change will be since they missed out on much of the modern-day research that has City Continued from A5 wanted to work the concession stand. Often times, she said, those groups want to know why the Lions Club has exclusively worked at the concession stand. No written agreement currently exists, but one could be in the works, according to the park board meeting minutes from March 22. According to the minutes, the only topic on the agenda was discussion of concession sales at the park. Seven items were listed in the minutes. Due to time constraints, the board agreed to allow the Lions Club to sell concessions for the 2012 season. Events include Washington County public school games, St. Dominic Elementary School games been done in the area. Not as much was known about autism in the 1990s, but a lot has been found out about the developmental disorder in recent years, reshaping the way children with autism are taught. However, most of the recent advancements pertain to younger children, meaning the Harmons missed many of the opportunities that children have these days. “When John was diagnosed, he was the only child in Washington County with a diagnosis of autism, so we were very much alone,” Kim said. and Idle Hour Park regular season games (coachpitch, Little League and t-ball). The park board also addressed the concession stand located adjacent to the t-ball field. “If Lions members choose not to sell concessions at this location during the approximate fourto five-week period, other bona fide non-profit or civic groups will be given an opportunity to sell via the bid process,” according to the minutes. That has clearly changed over the years, as a recent study by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention determined that one in 88 children are affected by the disorder. In fact, an accumulating amount of research has led to April being named autism awareness month. lem is communicating back to you his needs. He uses sign language and he uses an iPad. Thank goodness for the iPad.” ple as a classroom being reorganized, or getting a break from school disrupts his every-day routine and can be difficult. The Harmons use an application called Proloquo2go, which helps John communicate anything he needs to his family. The Harmons have had to adapt to their situation and find ways to break down the communication barriers that come with autism. Difficulties still exist, however, and school has been particularly daunting for John, as he has also been diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder. Any variance from the norm has a major impact on him. Something as sim- “He has to walk the same path from one destination to the other,” Kim said. “Everything in our refrigerator and everything in his room has to be in a certain spot, and I mean within a centimeter of where it was.” “John understands 100 percent of what you tell him,” Kim said. “His prob- would keep 70 percent of net sales. “With this payment, the Lions Club must submit a financial statement displaying an income and expense report for the season,” according to the minutes. “This statement and payment are due 45 days upon season wrap-up.” Concession sales during weekend and special tournaments that are not part of the events listed above would be open for bid for other non-profit organizations and civic groups. The park board minutes also state that Lions members will be asked to “monitor garbage can collections adjacent to the concession areas during sale periods so as not to allow the cans to overflow.” The winning bidder would be allowed to “pull in a concession trailer to sell concessions, provided the group or organization making such sales receive proper health officer certifications.” The park board suggested a 70/30 split of net sales between the city and the Lions Club. The city would receive 30 percent of net sales, while the Lions Club “Selling from a trailer would be required so as not to disturb the Lions Club’s stock of concessions or interfere with equipment owned by the Lions,” according to the minutes. The park board members also concluded that the Lions Club should consider an expanded menu, according to the minutes. Also, beginning for the 2013 season, the park board recommended that the concession sales be advertised for proposals. The terms and conditions sought by the park board are pending city council approval, according to the minutes. According to a footnote in the minutes, the park board recommendations were not submitted for the April 10 city council meeting because negotiations were still incomplete. According to the minutes, park board chairman David Tingle was directed to send the listed requirements to the Lions Club in writing and request that the organization sign off on the conditions at their March 26 meeting.

Still, big changes mean big decisions, and Kim said this move hasn’t been an easy one for the Harmon family, but that the time has come for John to become an independent adult. “Stacy and I have struggled with letting him move on, but we’re so excited to think he’s going to have friends and a life,” she said. “It’s an amazing opportunity for him. For the first time in years we feel very hopeful for him.” The next city council meeting is scheduled for May 8 at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall.

Brian Powers, with tissue, cried faux tears after winning the inaugural Junior Mister competition. From left to right, Rogelio Garza, Kyle Curtsinger and Taylor Wheatley looked nervous right before the awards were announced. Garza, at piano, did a performance to a Ray Charles song for his talent routine. Josh Jackson flashed his suspenders during the poise competition. Tyler Coulter, with headress, “sang” a song from the movie ‘Pocahontas.” The event raised approximately $3,000 for Relay for Life. Photos by Jesse Osbourne Students benefit from professional theatre experience during workshop Left, Lilli Wosk, center, shares a laugh with the theatre students while discussing tips with Mark Grider (out of frame). Lindsay Levine, right, worked with Gwen Campbell on moving across the stage during Campbell’s performance on Saturday. Photos by Jesse Osbourne By Jesse Osbourne Sun Editor Local theatre students benefitted from the experience of two teachers in the business last weekend. Lindsay Levine and Lilli Wosk, both residents of New York, came to Springfield on Saturday to work with students of Central Kentucky Community Theatre. Levine, who works with Tara Rubin Casting in New York, N.Y., said she was really surprised at the talent she and Wosk saw. “It’s a credit to their teachers down there,” she said. “They didn’t have a lot of bad habits. It was very refreshing.” Levine said the students were well-behaved and seemed to love the workshop. Each student that participated in the workshop, nearly 30 total, performed two pieces for Levine and Wosk. Wosk operates Lilli Wosk Music in New York. She is a voice coach. Jan Fattizzi, the director of the children’s theatre, said Wosk and Levine struck a good balance between being complimentary and giving constructive criticism. Fattizzi said she is hoping the duo will come back next year for a two-day workshop, and to see a children’s theatre production. Levine said she has given workshops in the past, but never really this far away. “We didn’t travel as much for younger students, mostly because people don’t ask,” she said. Bill Robinson, Springfield’s city attorney and a supporter of the theatre, did ask. Levine said Robinson saw a play in Louisville, looked on the back of the program and saw the company she works for, Tara Rubin Casting, and called. Levine happened to be the person who picked up the phone. “He hooked me with his friendliness,” she said. Robinson asked if the company did workshops. Her mom is from Kentucky, she said. Wosk had never been to Kentucky previously. She made another student move around the stage as she sang her piece, while two other students extended her arms to keep them from hanging at her sides. Within the first hour of the workshop, Levine and Wosk were deep into their work. The students were also taught a lesson in giving a tempo to the pianist, Wosk, before they performed. One student, who was nervous, was told by Levine to picture her favorite place ever and imagine that while singing. “I was blown away by how good they were with the kids,” Fattizzi said. They do, Levine said. And they’re happy to do it if people ask, she said. The student did, and the second time through her song, improved noticeably. Levine and Wosk also dined at Mordecai’s and watched the Saturday night showing of “Man of La Mancha.” A12 • WWW.THESPRINGFIELDSUN.COM The Springfield Sun • April 25, 2012 The new face of St. Catharine College to begin new BS program Patriot athletics interlocking SC design for a while but that concept is trademarked by the University of Southern California,” Bystrek said. “We had discussions with them and they allowed us to eventually phase out our use of that. With this new design, we have something that is uniquely St. Catharine and something we own the rights to.” SCC Communications There’s a new face on the campus of St. Catharine College, but it’s not of a new student, faculty or staff member; it’s the face of the new athletic logo designed for Patriots sports. The new Patriot logo comes after nearly two years of discussion, planning and designing. “It was a long road to reach this point, but we’re there and I think we have a really exciting logo that the teams and fans can rally behind and support,” said Tom Bystrek, SCC’s assistant athletics director and sports information director. Several designs were on the drawing board until the final one was picked by the college’s marketing and communications committee. Bystrek added, “The committee worked with a company out of Louisville to come up with a new concept of a Patriot logo. The only criteria we had to work with was the fact we had to remain the Patriots and the colors were to remain purple and gold. When you normally think of a Patriot, you think of red, white and blue. But we had to stick to our colors. The design company offered several concepts and some of them were good and some were pretty bad. We narrowed our choices down to a few, but nothing really stood out. The committee agreed on one particular design, but it was still lacking. To his credit, our director of communications, Jim Earls, who is also the chair of the marketing committee, did some work to refine the logo and his design is the one we’re using today.” “It was a group effort,” said Earls. “The committee as a whole - Dr. Harry Nickens, Mike Doig, Amy Bland, Paul Presta, Ming Li, Sr. Barbara Rapp, student representative Paige Hassman, myself and Sr. Angie Shaughnessy handling the legal side of the logo – worked diligently to arrive at a graphic that we can be proud of. Of course, we wanted buy-in from the Dominican Sisters of Peace, so Sr. Angie and I presented it to them and the response was overwhelmingly positive. We didn’t want to settle for something that was so-so, we wanted something that embodies the spirit, attitude and the commitment to excellence that St. Catharine stands for, and I think we have that now.” The three elements of the logo replace ones that were not official and were borrowed from other teams. The new logo consists of a Patriot head , new text and a stand-alone “SC” design. “We were using Get 2 Pair of Rx Glasses the “Our reasoning behind using SC and not SCC is that we’re looking ahead to when we eventually become a university,” Earls added. “Plus, when a lot of people see those two C’s, they immediately think in terms of community college, and we are definitely not that anymore.” Several of the athletic teams have already implemented the new logo into their wardrobe. “This is an important step for the St. Catharine because most people know colleges from their team logos,” Bystrek said. “When you think of the University of Louisville, you think of the Cardinals, when you think of UK, you think of the Wildcats. When people see the Patriot logo, we want that to be instantly identifiable as St. Catharine.” “Keep in mind that this is the logo for athletics and they are the primary users,” Earls said. “There will be some use of it in advertising and merchandise, but this is not replacing the college’s current shield logo for official business.” for radiation therapy SCC Communications Starting this August, St. Catharine College will begin the Bachelor of Science Degree in radiation therapy program. This bachelor degree program is the latest in the institution’s ever expanding health and humans sciences fields and is the only radiation therapy educational offering within the commonwealth. Admission to the program is very selective and has a foundational relationship with college level science-based physics and mathematics. Students may complete all course work at St. Catharine College or submit credits from other colleges for transfer consideration. The purpose of the Radiation Therapy Program at St. Catharine College is to educate competent, entry level radiation therapists prepared to provide quality patient care. The program also encourages professional growth and development within the discipline in order to advance the practice of radiation therapy. Radiation therapists use advanced computer systems to operate sophisticated equipment, such as Linear Accelerators, primarily in treatment of cancer patients. Working with the radiation oncologist, medical physicists and others of the oncology team, the therapist delivers the treatment regimen. The Dean of Health and Human Services at St. Catharine College, Dr. Harry Nickens, suggested “the absence of any Kentucky-based radiation therapy program increases costs to students seeking this academic credential at an out-of-state institution, to employers who will be competing within a national labor pool, and ultimately to the patient/ insurance carrier because of a diminished ‘local’ applicant pool. We are delighted to add this program, our most recent health sciences bachelors degree.” The US Department of Labor projects employment of radiation therapists needed to treat cancer patients will grow by 27 percent between 2008 and 2018. This translates into a need for increasing qualified therapist across the nation. Recent graduates entering the work force as radiation therapists begin at between $25 and $32 per hour, depending on geographic region. Graduates can look forward to longterm career earnings and job security. “I am very pleased to be back in Kentucky and at St. Catharine College,” said Carol Scherbak, program director. “Having initiated two radiation therapy programs, one in Kentucky and most recently a second in Texas, I am confident our program at St. Catharine College has the organization and infrastructure in place to offer our students an education second to none in the nation.” The admissions process to the program is as follows: Application to the college, including submission of transcripts of previous college work, letters of recommendation and a letter of intent. Selected applicants are then asked to visit the campus for a personal interview. Applicants must also document observational experience within a radiation therapy setting. All core studies and prerequisite courses must be completed by the time a student enters the professional course work. General core courses are available at the college as an essential component of the four-year degree. Students are encouraged to plan well ahead in completing those requirements as a 40 hour per week commitment is required once the five semesters sequence of professional courses and clinicals are undertaken. Program clinical experiences will be gained through partnerships with oncology centers in central Kentucky. For more information about the program, contact Carol Scherbak at (859)3365082 or by email at carolscherbak@sccky.edu. Although the Patriot logo is the latest face on campus, chances are pretty good he will be seen at St. Catharine College for a long time. FOR ONLY * Congratulate Your Graduate With A GRAD AD!

On April 27, 2012 (Kick Butts Day) youth from Washington County Country Heartland Youth Coalition are taking a stand to stop youth from getting hooked on deadly tobacco products. We know that 90 percent of smokers start using tobacco regularly by the time they are 18. Isn’t this astonishing? So, in order to give kids a fighting chance, the R.I.S.E. Youth Coalition members who consist of students from North Washington Middle School, Washington County Middle School and Washington County High School are planning KICK BUTTS DAY activities for their schools and community on FRIDAY, APRIL 27, 2012. The KICK BUTTS DAY events will begin at participating schools and conclude with a Community Event held in front of the Salt River Electric Company from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Washington County Elementary and North Washington Elementary students will be participating in coloring contests, Washington County Middle, North Washington Middle and Washington County High School students will have PSA contests. R.I.S.E. Youth and WCHYC members will be at Salt River Electric from 3:30-5:30 p.m. to promote Kick Butts Day. FREEBIES WILL BE GIVEN OUT: T-shirts, pens, pencils, and much more. We will have several tables and the RISE Youth will help to educate the public on the dangers of using tobacco products. The youth will have several games such as: TOBACCO BINGO, KICK THE BUCKET BEFORE YOU KICK THE BUCKET GAME AND OTHERS. Youth will hand out materials to those wanting information on quitting. There are many effective ways state and local officials can protect young people from tobacco. They can use funds from the states’ 1998 legal settlement with the tobacco companies to pay for tobacco prevention programs; they can increase tobacco taxes; and they can pass smokefree laws that protect us from secondhand smoke. Everyone deserves to breathe clean air! Consider these facts: Each day, more than 1,000 kids become new regular smokers; roughly one-third of them will die prematurely from a tobacco-related disease. Today’s youth are not just part of the problem; they’re part of the solution. And the students from Washington County want tobacco companies to realize they can make a difference through Kick Butts Day… today and every day throughout the year. Sincerely, The R.I.S.E. Youth, Volunteers and Staff of Washington County Heartland Youth Coalition and the Washington County Schools DRUG FREE COMMUNITIES Sports Military Appreciation Day 5K INSIDE Page B3 B1 The Springfield Sun Wednesday, April 25, 2012 Bat Pats finish regular season with sweep of UVA-Wise; prepare for MSC tourney SCC Sports Information One game was a slugfest and the other was a pitching duel. The good news for St. Catharine College is that the Bat Pats won both of them in a doubleheader sweep Friday of Mid-South Conference foe UVA-Wise at Edelen-Haydon Field. In the final day of the regular season, St. Catharine outlasted the Cavaliers in the opener 12-9. Then in the second game, Timothy Reed tossed a gem, as the Bat Pats -held to just one hit -- won 1-0. The sweep gives Luther Bramblett’s nine a 32-23 overall record and an 11-9 conference mark. They will take that record into the Mid-South Conference tournament where they will play at 2 p.m. next Thursday in a first round game against Shawnee State (31-22, 11-9). The Patriots opened the conference schedule in early March with a three-game sweep of the Bears. Friday’s victories broke a five-game losing skid for St. Catharine, who grabbed a 12-3 lead in the first game and held on for the win. The Bat Pats trailed 3-2 in the fifth inning, but exploded for seven runs helped by four walks, a catcher’s interference and a wild pitch on a strikeout that extended the inning. But with the game one run away from ending due to the run rule, UVA-Wise answered with six runs in the eighth inning to cut the lead to 12-9. Then, after the first two batters were retired in the ninth, the Cavaliers loaded the bases before Tommy Meier’s long blast to left field was hauled in by Luis Zeledon for the final out. Patriot reliever Cory Klinger came in for that final out to record the save for starting pitcher Javier Perez (4-3), who worked six innings, allowing five runs (three earned) on five hits. He struck out 10 and walked one. Matt Pavelich allowed all six runs in the eighth inning and Trenton Claunch worked two-thirds of an inning before giving way to Klinger. Zeledon, Cody Miller and Eric Standafer each had two hits and two runs batted in for St. Catharine. Andrew Garcia had two hits, including a double, and scored two runs. Juan Moriel was walked four times in the game and scored twice. What a difference a game makes as the two teams combined for just six hits in the second game. The Bat Pats’ only knock came when Jeremy Turpin opened the game with an infield single. The game’s only run against Justin Wilson (2-5) came in the third inning. Joey Xavier walked to open the inning and was advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Charlie Pal. Xavier then scored when Turpin hit a ground ball to short- Bat Pats seniors played their final home Friday.

The senior righthander allowed five hits, but just two runners got as far as second base. Reed fanned six and did not walk a batter. For the season, Reed has walked only four batters in 57 1/3 innings and has recorded 50 strikeouts. “He pitched a great game,” said Bramblett. “But he has done that all season. He has kept us in every game.” In Thursday’s opener of the UVA-Wise series, the Bat Pats trailed the entire day before finally tying the game at 7-7 in the eighth inning when CJ Englestad doubled in Moriel. But the Cavaliers (22-22, 8-10) reached Krohman for two runs in the ninth to nail down a 9-7 win. Moriel had three of St. Catharine’s 12 hits and reached base five times, as he was hit by a pitch twice. Standafer and Englestad had two hits each. Zeledon had a double and two RBI. Patriot starter Ryan Rizzi surrendered seven runs on 11 hits in seven innings. At Union College last Wednesday, the Bat Pats could muster only four hits against six Bulldog pitchers in an 8-1 setback. Juan Moriel had the only RBI, as he singled in Eric Standafer. St. Catharine also used six pitchers in the game. Jake Waardenburg (5-2) started and took the loss as he gave up four runs in three innings. Matt Wagner allowed three runs in 1 1/3 innings and Tony Krohman gave up one run in two-thirds of an inning. CJ Gant, Cory Klinger and Chase Dial each pitched one scoreless inning.

Washington County has had a tough time finding offense early in games many times this season, but that wasn’t a problem on Friday, as they hung 11 runs on the Lady Bulldogs in the first two innings. John Hardin put a run on the board in the top of the first inning, but Washington County answered in a big way. Olivia Goatley, Samantha Mudd and Emily Seger loaded the bases in the bottom of the first for the Commanderettes, then Tori Lawson, Mercedes Cowherd and Lee Ann Abell each came up with RBI hits on their way to an early 6-1 lead. They didn’t let up in the second inning, recording five-straight hits, including a two-run single by freshman Amanda DeWitt and a RBI-double by junior Hannah Adkins. Mercedes Cowherd drove in a pair of runs with this first-inning double against John Hardin on Friday. Cowherd was one of five Commanderettes to score two runs in the game.

Carey, a member of the UK shotgun team, competed in three events, including American trap, where she finished 24th out of 100 competitors. “My strongest event is American trap,” Carey said. “I started shooting trap when I was a freshman in high school. It wasn’t until I got to UK that I started shooting skeet, sporting clays and five-stand.” The Wildcats finished sixth overall out of 20 teams in their division, an impressive feat for a team that doesn’t get the same kind of funding as some of their competition. “Most teams receive a lot of funding from their universities and do not have to pay for practice or sells,” Carey said. “At UK, we are a student-run club, which means we do not get funding from UK, except what every club gets from the school, which is not much. We pay for all of our ammunition and practice rounds, which can get very expensive.” Carey said she would have liked to have posted higher scores overall, but that it was a big year for the university, as they took home awards for most improved trap team and skeet team, as well as most improved team overall. Carey said she knew she wanted to compete at the collegiate level as soon as she started shooting, and that getting involved with the shotgun team became a priority right away. “When I decided to come to UK, the president of the shotgun team was the first person I emailed,” Carey said. “The team is fairly new to UK, but they have done an excellent job promoting the team around the state. It’s great to be able to represent the University of Kentucky at these shoots.” The trip didn’t go Merchants host softball tourney The Merchants softball team is holding a tournament in Fredricktown on April 28-29.

Lee Ann Abell led the fourth inning off with a double for Washington County, eventually coming around to score, but that was the last of the offense for the Commanderettes. Danville got two more runs in the fifth inning, then Kasey Young delivered a RBI single that pushed the lead to 10 and ended the game in the sixth. Seger led the way at the plate for Washington County, going 2-for-3 with a double. but everyone at the event came together to help the Wildcats out. “We had to find new ear plugs, glasses, choke tubes and two girls had to borrow guns,” Carey said. “All the teams at nationals were so great Washington County vs. Bethlehem Score: 13-3 Bethlehem When: Monday, April 16 Where: Idle Hour Park Key players: WCHS Samantha Mudd, Skyla Graves BHS - Kelli Robinson, Hannah Farmer Game highlights: At home against Bethlehem last Monday, the Commanderettes got on the board with a run in the top of the first inning, but that was their last lead on their way to a 13-3 loss at the hands of the Banshees. Mudd got a two-out double to keep the first inning alive, then Seger brought her home with a double of her own. Bethlehem got a run in the first to tie the game, then took the lead in the second on a two-run home run by Annabelle about making sure we had everything we needed to shoot.

Extension We know there has been a lot of concern about wheat and the freeze. The following article has some information about it that may interest you. The recent freezing temperatures that occurred on April 11-12 (and possibly on April 7 in portions of the state) have caused much concern regarding the extent of the damage to the wheat crop. Three basic conditions must be present for freeze damage to occur to the wheat crop. These are: 1) The wheat plant must be at a sensitive stage of growth; 2) Temperatures must drop to a certain critical level at each stage of growth; and 3) The temperature must remain at the critical level for at least 2-3 hours. The first two criteria needed for freeze damage did occur during the period of April 11-12. The majority of the wheat crop in West Kentucky was headed or flowering (i.e. these stages are most sensitive to freeze damage). Temperatures of below 30 degrees F were recorded in the wheat canopy in fields at the UKREC. The third criteria needed (i.e. temperature remaining at the critical level for 2-3 hours) was difficult to discern whether the critical temperature level remained for more or less than 2-3 hours. We inspected wheat at the UKREC in Princeton on the morning of April 16 (four days after the freeze event of April 12) to determine if an early assessment of freeze damage could be made. Observations were made on plants taken from wheat fields, as well as on plants that were dug up after the freeze event of April 12 and placed in the greenhouse under favorable growing conditions. All of the wheat was completely headed at the time of the freeze. Some of the wheat was in the pollination/flowering stages, whereas other wheat had not yet begun to flower during the freeze events of April 11-12. Assessments were first made on the wheat plant itself. No obvious freeze damage symptoms were noted on the leaves (discoloration) nor was any damage observed on the stems (discoloration, splitting of internodes, node enlargement), at least at the present time. However, this does not infer that some low-lying fields or portions of fields in the state did not incur some minor stem damage. For the most, it is likely that major, extensive stem damage did not occur. The major concern was floret sterility (i.e. pollen had been killed and no kernel development would occur). We examined the wheat heads closely for damage. No obvious, visible freeze damage symptoms (white awns or spikes) were observed on the heads. For those heads that were flowering, yellow anthers (pollen-producing structures) were protruding from the florets. Yellow anthers indicate viable pollen has recently been shed inside the floret. After one or two days, these anthers will dessiate and turn white. Further close inspection of individual florets indicated a small kernel was starting to develop. This is a definitive indication that pollination occurred and the pollen and anthers were not killed by freezing temperatures. Florets of wheat heads that had not yet flowered were also examined. We found these florets to contain healthy, green anthers which are an indication they were not damaged and will produce pollen before they emerge from the florets as viable, yellow anthers. Overall, based on our assessment of wheat at the UKREC, there was little, if any, freeze damage that occurred to the wheat. The main concern was floret sterility (i.e. pollen killed resulting in no kernel development). However, our assessment of viable anthers and beginning kernel development indicate no extensive freeze damage occurred. Why possibly did we escape extensive freeze damage when the wheat was at very sensitive growth stages (heading and flowering) and critical temperatures of 30 degrees F or below occurred? The most plausible explanation is that the temperatures did not remain at the critical levels for damage very long. Generally, the critical freezing temperature must remain for at least two to three hours duration for extensive damage. This apparently did not occur at this location. It is also noted that temperatures will vary between locations and within the same field. So there may be small areas within some fields in this area that may have received some freeze damage. Other locations across the state The official temperatures from the Mesonet stations across the state indicate that the low temperature on the morning of April 12 at a few locations were two to three degrees colder than those at Caldwell County. Most of Western Kentucky was similar to Caldwell County and based on this, we feel that the freeze damage was minimal in most of the fields in Western Kentucky. In some other locations in the Southeastern part of the state, colder temperatures were recorded (25 degrees F in Cumberland County and 27 degrees F in Clinton County). There are also reports from this area that some damage is beginning to be seen. The table below gives visual symptoms at different stages of growth which may help in diagnosing any damage. A better assessment can be made seven to 10 days after the freeze. At that time, kernel development or any damage will be more obvious. A guide to picking the right tomato Horticulture Happenings DENNIS MORGESON Wash. Co. Extension When selecting tomatoes, if you aren’t partial to heirlooms or particular varieties, choose based on disease resistance. The labels or seed packets will have letters on it such as VFFNT. Honestly the more letters the better, because it simply means that variety is resistant to more diseases. The University of Kentucky has a list of recommended varieties for Kentucky that includes determinates Early Girl, Big Early, Celebrity, Roma VF, and Mountain Fresh, among others. The indeterminates include Big Beef, Better Boy, Pink Girl, Brandywine, Kentucky Beefsteak, Bucks County Hybrid and Sungold. This doesn’t mean these are the only varieties that do well in Kentucky, but it is the varieties that have been tested throughout the state and have performed the best. My personal favorites (all indeterminates) are Big Beef, Better Boy, Brandywine, and Kentucky Beefsteak (this one is yellowish orange). Another issue when determining which tomatoes to grow is whether you want determinate or indeterminate varieties. Determinate varieties are good if you want to can and only want to do it once. These plants will set a lot of fruit at one time, quit growing, allow the fruit to ripen and die. Indeterminate varieties will grow and produce fruit until something such as drought, frost, or dis- ease kills them. tures drop below 50. Tomatoes require full sun (at least six hours) and grow best with good air flow. Tomatoes are self-fertile and are pollinated by wind and to some extent, bees. Usually tomatoes pollinate themselves before pollen from other plants gets to the blooms. This is actually good because this makes saving seeds from heirloom varieties possible. You can reliably and consistently get the same varieties back year after year. You can’t do this with hybrids. If you save seeds of hybrids you will not reliably get the same variety back year after year from saved seeds. After planting tomatoes, apply mulch. This mulch can be organic or inorganic. Good mulches for tomatoes include straw, newspaper, leaf mold, hardwood, cedar, cypress or even plastic or rubber. If you decide to use plastic, place a soaker hose or drip irrigation under the plastic for watering during extended dry periods. Remember, tomatoes need at least one inch of water per week to grow properly. If you want to grow your own tomatoes next year, start the seeds four to six weeks before the last spring frost, which is around May 10. Generally seeds started by April 1 are adequate size for the garden by May 10, if well taken care of. You may need to use grow lights or start them in a cold frame or greenhouse to give them adequate light. When planting your tomatoes, it is best to get a soil test done prior to planting, however, if you can’t, apply two pounds of actually nitrogen per 1000 sq. ft. or 20 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer per 1000 sq. ft. Don’t over fertilize tomatoes. If you do, you will have a beautiful, large, dark green tomato plants with few fruit. When planting tomatoes, space them at least 24 inches apart in rows three to four feet apart. Remember to leave room for harvesting, staking and spraying. Tomatoes need night temperatures to be at least 60 degrees to set fruit and will often abort flowers if tempera- JOSEPH R. NEWTON ESTATE ANTIQUES • COLLECTIBLES • FURNITURE AUTOMOBILE ABSOLUTE Be sure to maintain even moisture in your tomatoes. Blossom-end rot is a very common tomato disorder that is actually caused by inconsistent moisture or low soil calcium. When moisture is low, the tomato plant has trouble taking up calcium, which holds cell structures together in plants. When calcium is low, the skin on the tomato doesn’t develop properly and thus the tomato rots. Lime can add calcium to your garden, but don’t apply unless your pH is below six. When your tomatoes start to grow, they need to be staked at an early age. A single gust of wind can lean and even break your tomato plants. Staking can be done easily with a tomato cage, either purchased or homemade with fencing, or by driving stakes in the ground, or even with a rope tide tight to an over- head structure like in a greenhouse. Personally the easiest way to stake is to get extra long stakes, eight feet or so, and simply make a teepee like you are staking beans. This will cut down on labor. No matter what you use or how you stake your tomatoes, remember taller is better and it must be done to get the best tomatoes possible. The best tasting tomato is going to be one that is left on the vine until it is completely ripe. These won’t store long, but then again, vine-ripened tomatoes can also be canned, frozen or dehydrated. There are several disease problems that are particularly fierce in Kentucky. These are verticillium and fusarium wilt, early blight, septoria leaf spot and late blight. Most of them can be somewhat controlled by using a good mulch, which will slow or stop splashing of soil unto the leaves and by maintaining a spray program of mancozeb, maneb or daconil. Remember, when spraying fungicides ,always cover both sides of the leaves and the stems and follow label instructions. Verticillium and Fusarium wilt can only be controlled by selecting disease-resistant varieties and crop rotation. There aren’t many insect problems on tomatoes.

Sevin will control flea beetles relatively easily and the few tomato and tobacco horn worms can be handpicked. If Colorado potato beetle becomes a problem, simply use the Colorado Potato Beetle Beater Spray on your tomatoes. A good brisk spray with the water hose on the tops and bottoms of the leaves or a spray of insecticidal soap will help slow the damage of spider mites and aphids. Remember, spider mites become immune to insecticides and miticides relatively quickly, so use them sparingly for mite control. If you want an organic approach, you can also purchase predatory mites online, which will eat the bad ones.

Central Kentucky Ag Credit declares payment to borrowers Central Kentucky Ag Credit has declared $1.3 million in patronage payments to association borrowers in the Bluegrass Region. The patronage payout is currently being made in full-cash payments to members who were Ag Credit borrowers last year (2011). The 2011 patronage distribution is the largest in association history. Patronage distributions to borrowers of Central Kentucky Ag Credit are determined after all association expenses are calculated, and after adequate reserves are set aside to cover anticipated loan volume growth. The patronage distribution process is unique to cooperatives, including Ag Credit, which is part of the nationwide Farm Credit System. Central Kentucky Ag Credit provides rural lending services to farm- ers, part-time farmers, and rural residents who are located in the 17-county Central Kentucky region. Eligible members who borrow from Ag Credit are allocated patronage based on usage of the cooperative’s services. Central Kentucky Ag Credit is a Lexingtonbased financial cooperative that provides a broad range of credit alternatives to farmers and rural residents. Ag Credit branch offices are located in Lexington, Richmond, Stanford, Lebanon, Danville and Paris. Jim Caldwell, President & CEO of Central Kentucky Ag Credit, verified the massive patronage payment, saying the $1.3 million patronage distribution in 2011 is 53 percent greater than the $870,349 amount that was paid in 2010. Central Kentucky Ag Credit has declared patronage to its memberborrowers for 15 consecutive years. During that time a total of over $11 million has been distributed to those who use many financial services that are offered by the member-owned financial cooperative. Jim Caldwell also observed that the 2011 patronage being paid to members comes at a time when the nation’s economic adversity has worked hardship on many area farmers and rural residents. “The money our borrowers are receiving will help with economic recovery in the region by reducing borrowing costs,” said Caldwell. He continued by observing that Ag Credit’s ability to pay patronage at such a high level is a clear indication that Ag Credit is well-managed and that those who borrow from the cooperative are also among the best farm and rural managers in America. According to Ag Credit’s Chief Financial Officer Marcus Barnett, the 2011 patronage lowers the cost of member borrowing. He explained by saying, “when the member’s amount of patronage is deducted from Ag Credit’s alreadycompetitive interest rates, the effective final interest paid by member-borrowers becomes even lower.” Jim Caldwell said that as a member-owned cooperative, Central Kentucky Ag Credit has a primary obligation to maintain top service, reasonable interest rates, and superior management. “Those ingredients, coupled with Ag Credit’s excellent Board of Directors, have consistently placed Central Kentucky Ag Credit among the most financially stable lending units in the nationwide Farm Credit System,” concluded Caldwell.
