And they're off!

They say it is the most exciting two minutes in sports!  Residents at Ferris Hills held their own Kentucky Derby party Friday afternoon.  Mint Julep's were being served, along with Makers Mark, wine and beer choices.  The famous "Hot Brown" sandwich was served as well.  This American hot sandwich was created at the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky in 1926.  It is a variation of traditional Welsh rarebit.  With everyone in their finest Derby hats, they were ready to place their bets on their horses....all in fun, as they participated in their own "races".  The number one horse, Poncho Pinata took first place!  As we all know by now, the real winner at the Derby was Rich Strike!  If you watched the race this past weekend, you will agree that this was the most exciting two minutes in sports!

Ferris Hills and Clark Meadows Men's Group enjoys presentation by Tom Mees on Sonnenberg History

Ferris Hills resident Tom Mees recently gave a fascinating presentation on the history of Sonnenberg Gardens & Mansion State Historic Park to our men's group.  With a deep appreciation for local history and a true gift for storytelling, Tom had the audience captivated by his knowledge of this local gem.

In addition to sharing historical insights, Tom enocuraged anyone interested in volunteering at Sonnenberg to get involved - help is always welcome!

One interesting question came up during the discussion: How did Sonnenberg get its name? Tom explained that "Sonnenberg," meaning Sunny Hill in German, was the postal name of the property when it was purchased.  Fittingly, the estate sits at the crest of Fort Hill Avenue.

Tom also shared the story of how Fred and Mary Thompson met: at Mary's father's farewell banquet ball in Albany, NY.  At the time, her father was serving as Governor of New York State.  It was love at first sight.  Just six months later, Fred and Mary were married in the Clark family home, located behind the United Church on Gibson Street.
