Saturday‘s cold winds resulted
in lower tuniouls than organizers
had expected for the 1993 Little
Kentucky Derby events. but the
hot air balloons at least got off the
ground this year.

At past Little Kentucky Derby's.
strong winds zutd cold weather
completely grounded the dirigibles
,H one of the ritost popular events
of the festival. But this year. it
only delayed them from takeoff.

The schedule originally called
for a 6:30 am. launch of more
titan a dozen hot air balloons. btil
the start had to be delayed until
about 6:30 pm. LKI) official Kim
Slusher said.

The next event, a S-kilometer
walk/run. began on time at Com-
monwealth Stadium. Three overall
male and female winners were
awarded trophies. as well as three
winners from each age category.

Slusher. an elementary educa-
tion junior. said this was the first
year the event was included in the
festivities and. “considering the
weather conditions. I think that the

walk/run went very well."

More than 100 people participat-
ed iii the event. Sltisher said. add-
ing that she hopes the Student Ac-
tivities Board. which sponsors
LKD. will continue the walk/run
in the future.

The Arts and (‘rafts liair. held
on Stoll Field front 10 run. until 6
pm. included about If) vendors
selling handmade jewelry. quilts
attd various nicknacks. Dwight
lladdix. a vendor. said business
had been slower thim he hoped.

'l'he Sensations provided the
first half of the entertainment Sat—
urday. hitting the stage at about
11:30 am. and performing to art
audience of about 15 people.

The second hand. See-l Reggae.
began playing at 2:30 pm. to art
only slightly larger audience.

Finally. rather than beginning
the day with a hot air balloon race.
LKD ended it with one instead.

The contest required pilots to ei-
ther grab a key frotn a pole or land
within 200 yards of the pole.
Slusher said none of the 13 pilots
were able to accomplish either of
the tasks. so the race was declared
a tie.

“What we need today is a close

Another positive aspect of the
house. Belts said. is its location on
a residential street at the edge of

cal and symbolic connection be-

In fact. the center plans to hold

Belts said the house has been va-

Diverse coalition joins
forces in Walk for Life

 

By Tyrone Beason
News Editor

 

There weren‘t many sad faces
zunortg the more than 1.000 partici—
pants in the Walk For Life AIDS
services fund-raiser yesterday.

Those who converged outside
(‘oriiriionwcitlth Stadium to take
part in the five-kilometer event to
benefit AIDS Volunteers of Letting
ton were too happy about making a
difference -— too happy to feel
down about the deadly IIIV epi-
demic that provided the impetus for
them to get involved.

I’ledge-getters raised about
845.000. much of which came from
yesterday‘s event. walk organizer
Kcitlt Lovan said.

But the most refreshing aspect of
the walk may have been the array
of individuals who tunted out to
show their support for AIDS aware-
ness. AIDS survivors. religious
groups. trtembers of grcek organi/a-
lions. children. even two people lot-
ing gay pride flags meshed together
in a collage of cultures and perspec-
lives.

“We didn‘t know what the rum-

out would be beforehand." Lovart
said. “but everybody is thrilled with
it."

Members of this diverse coalition
included families its well. Shanna
Thompson. a 15-year-old student
council representative from Henry
(‘lay High School, brought her
mother and other lillllli) member's
along for the walk

Thompson said because of the
widespread impact of the HIV virus
that causes AIDS. no one should as-
sume that the disease is everyone
else‘s problem.

“People our age really should be
concerned because it can affect me
ryone." she said. “And we. as
blacks. should participate just to let
everyone know that we‘re doirtg
our best to lift up the community."

AVOI. volurtleer Donald Smith
agreed. saying. “If today you don‘t
know somebody affected by AIDS.
tomon‘ow you will luiow someone."

ile said the “phenomenal" tuni-
out for the fund~raising project is
indicative of the community‘s en-
thusiasm about fighting AIDS.
