I know you you're going around today and um [10:55] I know E-town. Did you hit any other cities? [10:57] » We were in Vine Grove >> Vine Grove last week, so. [11:01] Got you. So um we're glad to support and be a part [11:04] of of what you're doing. Obviously, you were here few uh probably about 2 months [11:07] ago and explained the the whole program and and and what it does for the [11:10] community and what it does for those folks. [11:12] » This is Dr. Hope's mission, so. >> Absolute Oh, okay. Yeah. How are you? [11:17] » Last I came, she was called to the hospital, so. [11:19] » Do you want to come up and just say a few words before we do the proclamation [11:21] or you Yeah, please come up. Come up. [11:25] Beth, will you turn up the mic just it's you know yeah, turn it off for you. [11:30] That's just so people at home can hear, but yeah, if you want to have a seat, [11:33] just yeah. >> Okay. [11:35] » Um so, I'm Shannon Holt. Um grew up in Elizabethtown. We've come back home. [11:40] Been home almost 20 years now. And um period poverty, I had patients in [11:46] the office that could not afford period supplies and [11:50] were having to choose between medications and food for their family [11:55] versus their own comfort and just hygiene in general. [12:00] So, the more I learned about it, um the more frustrated it what I became. One in [12:04] four students do not have access or funding for their own supplies and they [12:10] don't go to school. And two in five women throughout their [12:13] lifetime also cannot afford supplies. They don't go to work. They lose their [12:17] jobs. They bleed through their clothing. They reach for socks. They reach for [12:22] newspapers. They reach for whatever they can make do with. [12:26] Um I've met women that have stolen products because they didn't have any [12:30] other option. So, the average cost, um the most recent [12:36] data is $3 to $35,000 per woman in her lifetime. Um the [12:42] products are increasingly expensive. Kentucky remains one of 18 states that [12:47] taxes them as luxury items, so they're subject to sales tax and frankly, we [12:54] feel that they are so essential that that's one of the things we would like [12:58] to see go away, but in the short term, how can we get these into the hands of [13:02] women that need them and keep them in school and keep their educations going [13:06] and get women working and providing for their family and not worry about [13:10] struggling with period supplies. This would not have been possible [13:13] without Heels Together. Um [13:16] the conversation was at a cup of coffee and talking about menopause and then I [13:21] said, "What I really want to fix is is period poverty." Um and that it is right [13:25] here in Hardin County. This is not You hear poverty and and period products and [13:30] you think, "Oh, that's in Africa. That's somewhere really far away." And it's [13:33] it's not. It's right here in town. So, we've done three distributions. We [13:38] are working with 20 to 22 nonprofit organizations. [13:43] And we have given away with on average about $7,000 per distribution. [13:50] Um and we have gotten donations. We do several drives with [13:56] different businesses that want to do collection drives. And we just want to [14:01] keep it going. Um we'd like to start with some education on reusable products [14:07] so that instead of just fixing a month we need, we actually can help women have [14:12] supplies for 3 to 5 years. There are products that will do that for women. [14:16] Um which I think is is very helpful in the longer term. [14:20] » Got you. >> So, yes. [14:21] » It's all very good. Well, thank you. I mean, I'm so glad to have you guys come [14:25] by and and support and and uh be able to recognize what you guys [14:29] are trying to do for our community. So, uh [14:32] I turned over to the voice of the proclamations, Mr. Pike. [14:35] Um if you wouldn't mind, sir. [14:40] » This is a proclamation of the City of Radcliff. Whereas National Period [14:43] Poverty Week is May 11th through 17th. And whereas two in five women struggle [14:48] to afford period products. And whereas on average one in four girls miss school [14:51] because they don't have access to menstrual supplies. [14:54] And whereas the average woman will spend as much as $22,000 on period products in [14:58] their lifetime. And whereas safety net benefits such as WIC and SNAP cannot be [15:03] used to purchase period products. And whereas Hardin County's own Dr. Shannon [15:06] Holt discovered many of her patients were struggling with period poverty [15:10] right here in our community. And whereas Dr. Holt sought the support of the [15:14] Central Kentucky Community Foundation's Heels Together Women's Fund to launch [15:18] the Pink Dot Pink Dot Project. And whereas the Pink [15:21] Dot Project aims to end period poverty in Hardin County through a coordinated [15:25] effort of public and private partnerships, as no woman or girl should [15:28] have to go without these essential products. Now, therefore, I James S. [15:31] Duvall Jr., mayor of the city of Radcliff, Kentucky, by virtue of the [15:34] authority vested in me, do hereby proclaim May 11th through May 17th, [15:38] 2026, National Period Poverty Awareness Week.

[26:00] Yeah, in the past the budget's went fairly smooth, so [26:03] I think we can knock it out pretty easily based on what I'm already seeing, [26:07] so. [26:09] There's not a lot of big expenditures coming out, so. [26:14] Yep. Can anybody else be here? [26:22] We'll find out. We'll find out. [26:27] And if not, does anybody out there want to fill in for one of the council [26:29] members? Is there a handful? [26:35] All right. All right. With that, we'll We're We're going to check some dates. [26:38] So, council members will either um check your emails or we'll send you a message.

He's very important to that day, so. [26:53] All right, with that I don't think we have any mayor council comments, Ms. [26:56] Bell? I'll start with you on your end. [26:59] » Me? >> Yep. [27:06] » The Tempest. >> Huh? [27:10] » I ran and ran and ran, so nobody could catch me up. [27:17] I enjoyed it. Thank you, Parks and Recreation. Thank you, Radcliffe. [27:21] For the ones that missed it, you missed a lot. [27:25] The cast was [27:28] absolutely fantastic. We had [27:33] 150 people, there abouts. We didn't get the count yet. Supposed to [27:39] get the count the next day. And [27:43] I wish we had more. That's all I can say about it. [27:47] And the 19th is coming up. Vote. [27:52] Please vote. It's It's what makes you different [27:59] when you express your opinion. Especially when you express your opinion [28:05] right by your vote. [28:08] The world gets better. Remember that. My name is Maria Bell. [28:13] Thank you. >> All right, thank you. Jerry. [28:16] » You know, Ms. Bell, she did a good job. >> I don't have anything. [28:21] » No? All right. [28:24] » I was just going to say if you'll check the Calvin Community Center Facebook [28:28] page, there's information about swimming pool lessons. The pool will be opening [28:33] soon. Um and also pool rentals. If you want to [28:36] have a private pool party, that information is also on the uh Calvin [28:42] Community Center Facebook page. And of course, the Radcliffe Parks and Rec [28:47] Facebook page has information about Saunders Springs and the different [28:50] events that that they're hosting. And that's [28:54] it. And have a wonderful Well, we'll be back before Memorial Day. [28:57] » Yes. >> I'm rushing. We'll be back. [28:59] » Miss Owens. >> Yes, sir. I apologize. I did send a text [29:02] to Miss Ashley so I was in a different spot today as we were doing [29:06] proclamations. As a matter of fact, by the time I got to them, they were [29:10] already coming out and it was great that Vine Grove also recognized us. But the [29:14] the governor also recognized this week officially for the state of Kentucky to [29:20] be recognized as a period period poverty to advocate and to make aware. I don't [29:25] think most people think about it because it's just a product you go to the store [29:28] and get if you have, you know, women in your family. But when [29:33] it's not affordable cuz it is expensive and when students decide to stay home [29:39] because they can't make it through the day, then we start to have problems with [29:43] truancy and just self-doubt and things like that. And so, it was great that we [29:48] had a box in Corbin cuz I made sure we put it there because we didn't. And [29:52] constantly I try to keep it filled and take photos and make sure people know [29:55] that it's there and that people are contributing. So, kind of like a [29:59] Mother's Day thing. You want to appreciate the people who are here and [30:02] the people who are gone. That's a product that you want to appreciate to [30:05] make sure it stays here so young ladies and older ladies, particularly young, [30:10] can go on and have these supplies and still be able to carry on their lives. [30:14] So, I think anybody that wants to contribute in whatever way or donate, [30:19] Our Heels Together organization truly truly truly appreciate it. Thank you. [30:24] » All right. Thank you. Miss Thompson. [30:28] All right. Um [30:30] all right. Next meeting will be Monday, May 18th at 5:00. So, just make sure [30:36] y'all have that down and we'll send a reminder out. And of course, then [30:39] Monday's our work session. We'll get that out. And then just a quick note. [30:43] Hope everyone had a good weekend, good Mother's Day. Think the weather was [30:46] supposed to rain, but it looked like it held off. Think it rained a little [30:49] early, but hope everyone had a good Mother's Day. And then [30:53] finally um my Hannah Bob will appreciate this. I'm [30:57] glad that travel season for football that I've been a part of is over. [31:01] Um we the boys went out to Kansas and just a little plug for my kids, but um [31:06] we went out to Kansas uh played in the national tournament, [31:09] went three and 0 the first day against 10 teams across the across the eastern [31:14] part of the country, went three and 0 and then um [31:17] we lost in the semi-final round to the team that we beat the day before by one [31:22] point. We lost to them in overtime by one point. But the only thing that was [31:26] great about that was it was Jason Altidore's son's team, which if you knew [31:30] Jason Altidore from North uh it was just randomly I ran into him out there. He [31:34] lives in Wichita now. And so it was just nice at least lose to a Racliffe kid [31:38] instead of some random [31:40] So it was just ironic we ran into each other. [31:43] And then uh they won their championship finals that they had in Bowling Green [31:48] this weekend. And so um they went four and one, but won the championship [31:54] overall. So um it was good to see that and the kids [31:58] the reason I'm mentioning it is all the kids are from North Middle, um JTA and [32:03] then we have one one kid from Meade County. So they're all local. So it was [32:06] nice to see them be successful in this and it's nice that I can stay home for a [32:10] little while and not travel every weekend as Bob and I talked about how [32:13] expensive that can get. So Um but other than that everything else [32:16] is good. Um we will see you all. That's all we have. So we'll see you all. [32:20] » one more thing? >> Yeah. [32:21] » Um I forgot we we just held the our first Racliffe Women's Club first spring [32:26] fundraiser and it was uh performance pastries and What was the other thing? [32:33] Stand for pasta, thank you. Uh [32:35] And if you didn't get to see um the Allegro Dance Theatre group, they [32:42] were phenomenal. They're doing the Lion King Jr. Um, and they're going to be at [32:47] the PAC on May 23rd. You can probably go on her page. I'm not sure of the time, [32:52] but it's Saturday, May 23rd. Um, I highly recommend. They're local [32:57] students, a lot of them. Some are from here. They were third grade all the way [33:00] up to >> they mentioned every school they were [33:02] from. >> Every school they were from. And the the [33:04] third grade was uh New Holland Elementary School all the way up, local [33:08] schools. A few were out out and about, but they were phenomenal. [33:12] Um, so I really uh if you don't have any plans for Saturday the 23rd, put that on [33:15] your calendar to go to the PAC and watch those [33:18] uh young talented students cuz her studio is in Radcliffe. And so that [33:23] would be very supportive of the students and of [33:26] um Ms. Carol. >> Yep. And [33:28] » And thank you to everyone that participated and came. [33:31] » And that should just put you when you were talking made me think of one last [33:33] thing. Um, we have early voting at Colvin this week. [33:36] » As well. Thursday, Friday, Saturday. >> And so [33:40] Yeah, so just remember if you have an opportunity to go vote, you have all the [33:43] way this early voting this week at Colvin here locally. And then you'll be [33:46] able to do it on the 19th again. So just keep that in mind and and exercise your [33:51] right. So [33:54] And government center. Yeah. So >> It's no excuse early voting. Kim was [33:59] saying he thought you have to have a reason. There's no reason. 8:00 to 4:30 [34:03] Thursday, Friday, Saturday. >> Yeah, and want to thank Brian Smith too [34:06] for his uh bringing this back up here and and [34:09] giving that option to the folks um [34:12] to be able to vote. So and not have to drive to Elizabethtown [34:15] just to do that one early. Usually early voting was always down in Elizabethtown. [34:19] Um, so it's just nice to have it on the north side of town where [34:22] um people from Vine Grove, Fort Knox, West Point can and anywhere else. [34:26] Obviously you would just drive up here. Lines are not long. Um, so it's always [34:30] All right, that's my selfish plug. All right, with that we will [34:34] see you all next week. Thank you.
