ON THE COVER:
New Albany’s Riverfront Inde-pendence Day Celebration will be on Sunday, July 3, at the Riverfront Amphitheater, according to a news release from the city.
The event begins at 6 p.m. This year’s lineup includes the local country music act Wildwood and the Louisville Crashers. So grab a lawn chair or a blanket and enjoy a wonderful night of family fun along the Ohio River.
In addition to the live music, the event will host tons of children’s inflatables to bounce around on, the famous Bubble Machine, local food vendors, a beer garden area, an Independence Day Recognition Ceremony, and to top it all off — a beautiful fireworks display at dark, the release stated.
JEFFERSONVILLEJeffersonville July Fourth Parade
is 11 a.m., Monday, July 4, on Spring Street from the riverfront to Warder Park.
Following the parade, a patriotic
ceremony and parade awards will be held in Warder Park at Spring Street and Court Avenue.
SELLERSBURGThe Wilbur M. Ruby Post 204 of
the American Legion, 412 N. New Albany St., Sellersburg, will be the center of activities for the Town of Sellersburg’s July Fourth celebra-tion. The town’s annual parade will start at 2 p.m. at Haas Cabinets, 625 W. Utica St., Sellersburg, and finish at the American Legion Post. Start-
ing at noon, food will be served in the large room on the main floor of the post. Fried chicken and pork chops with all the fixings, $8 per person.
The Post has a shelter house with large picnic tables and a small children’s playground with swings. Fireworks, sponsored by the Legion, will start just after dark and can been seen from the post parking lot area.
The event is open to the public. For more information call 812-246-4064.
Oooh and ahhh in Southern Indiana
I’m a bit biased because I’m a history buff, but I’m stoked about this week’s cover story on Clark Days at the George Rogers Clark
Home Site in Clarksville.It really is a unique event, educational as well
as inspirational. Who doesn’t get goosebumps standing at the replica of Clark’s cabin high on a bluff overlooking the Ohio River and imagining the spirit of discovery that fueled expeditions west in 1804?
The two-day long event features re-enactors, guest speakers, cabin tours, pioneer activities, vendors selling period products and food, and demonstrations of early American crafts and skills, Jenna Esarey writes in today’s centerpiece.
The Falls of the Ohio State Park is partnering with the Center for Cultural Resources at Indiana University Southeast and Louisville’s Frazier History Museum to
stage the event.At the event last year I was blown away by
the re-enactments of pioneer life, as well as actors in period costumes — I rubbed elbows with Meriwether Lewis — and the quality of the hand-made goods for sale.
Tomahawk throwing is expected to draw a crowd along with the always-popular atlatl ex-hibit. The atlatl predates the bow and arrow and was one of humans’ first mechanical inventions, Esarey writes.
Maybe it’s Clark Days’ location, where you can gaze at the Louisville skyline in one direction and open river in another, but it certainly inspires awe.
Time, sometimes, does stand still.

Party like a pioneerGuests will gather at the George Rogers Clark cabin
on a bluff high above the Ohio River in Clarksville this weekend for Clark Days — a celebration of
the lives of Clark and his younger brother, William.The two-day long event features re-enactors, guest
speakers, cabin tours, pioneer activities, vendors selling period products and food, and demonstrations of early American crafts and skills.
Revolutionary War hero George Rogers Clark founded both Clarksville and Louisville. William Clark was the co-leader of the Corps of Discovery trip to explore the western territories of the United States — better known as the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
“You always need to know where you’ve come from,” said Andrea Logsdon, assistant property manager for Falls of the Ohio State Park. “History is always import-ant, especially in this area. George Rogers Clark lived parts of his life here. It’s also the jumping off point for his younger brother’s exploration all the way out to the pacific ocean.”
The event covers the late 1700s and early 1800s.“We call it Clark Days so we kind of want to include
both brothers,” Logsdon said. “George Rogers Clark, his time period was the Revolutionary War and the early settling of Indiana, the younger brother was a little later — the exploration and the continuing expansion.”
Clark’s cabin is the presumptive starting point of the 1804 expedition, and some corps members were recruit-ed in the area.
Tours of the cabin will be offered during the event, as well as the reproduction McGee cabin, representing the home of Ben and Venus McGee, indentured servants to the elder Clark.
“We’re going to have about 20 re-enactors camped out,” said Logsdon. “One’s bringing a small cannon that they will probably be firing.”
The Falls of the Ohio State Park is partnering with the Center for Cultural Resources at Indiana University Southeast and Louisville’s Frazier History Museum to stage the event.
“The Clarksville Historical Society isn’t officially a partner, but they have been very supportive,” said Logsdon.
“I’m excited this year that there will be a period food
vendor,” she added. “They will have items like Indian fry bread, homemade sodas, lemonade, teas, a fry bread taco and fry bread burger.”
The food will be provided by Cheyenne Trading Co., new to Clark Days this year. “They’ll also be operating a mercantile,” Logsdon said.

ENTERTAINMENT This week's entertainment releases
Southern Indiana musician Jacob Resch is keeping busy these days.
On Aug. 13, Resch will again play at Headliners Music Hall. The con-cert will be headlined by both Jacob Resch and Southern Indiana band Hoosier. The show will be opened by Jimmy and the Two Toned Leg Benders, a band stocked with fellow Our Lady of Providence Jr.-Sr. High School grads, according to a news release from Resch.
Last year Resch and Hoosier played at Headliners Music Hall and the turnout was nearly 400 people.
Tickets are on sale and can be purchased online at headlinerslouis-ville.com or jacobreschmusic.com. Tickets can also be purchased via email at [email protected] or at the door. Tickets are $10
and the show is ages 14 and over. Doors open at 7 p.m. with the con-cert starting at 8 p.m.
SHORT FILMIn April, Resch released his third
official music video which was also his first short film. The film was written and produced by Resch and filmed, directed, edited, and pro-duced by Jerry McIlvoy and Chris Cooper.
The 10-minute short film is based off of Jacob’s 2015 release “Cali Girl.” In this short film Resch, a less than interested college student,
enters a dream world where he meets his “Cali Girl.” This film features Vine star Brennan Tracy as well as local artist/musician Ryan Bradley.
The film was shot in Blooming-ton and New Albany. The short film has been entered in several differ-ent film contests and is pending approval at the moment. The film can be viewed on Resch’s YouTube account at www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFqpsF0dFyc and the song can be heard and purchased online at any online retailer or stream service such as iTunes, Spotify and Sound-cloud.

and settlers would have eaten and how they would have acquired it.
Tomahawk throwing is expected to draw a crowd along with the always-popular atlatl exhibit. The atlatl predates the bow and arrow and was one of humans’ first me-chanical inventions. It uses leverage to achieve greater velocity when throwing a spear or dart.
“There’s going to be an atlatl
competition this year,” Logsdon said. “But the public is welcome to play with the tool as well.”
Logsdon has been assistant property manager at the Falls for 10 years and created the event in 2007.
“We do a lot of re-enactments,” she said. “I’m always fascinated by the history of it. I enjoy seeing how different people interpret history.”
While all Clark Day activities will be held at the cabin, the Falls
of the Ohio Interpretive Center will be operating on its normal sched-ule, offering tours of the fossil beds and welcoming visitors to its newly renovated exhibits.
Parking is limited at the cabin, but a large field across from Lewis and Clark Park is a short walk away.
“We’ll provide transportation for those with mobility issues,” Logsdon said. “We’ll get everybody there.”
