Franklin County Farmers Market vendor, Ida Palmer-Ball, prepared "Homecoming Bouquets" for KSU alums and supporters to celebrate the weekend. Ida, an avid swimmer, had been enjoying swimming at the KSU Exum Center's pool -- hopefully it will be open & available soon!

How to Find the Thorobred Trail!
If you start the trail on KSU's campus (if you drove to the campus, park in Exum Gym parking lot), walk to the trail entrance, which is just off the sidewalk, very near the entrance to campus. If you parked at Exum, walk past the building and toward East Main. Just before you get to the intersection, the trail starts on your right. Click here for a KSU campus map.
You can start from the downtown end of the trail -
Go to the Commonwealth Credit Union building, at 417 High St, Frankfort. Parking is available in the parking lot; or, turn right at the stoplight by the Credit Union onto Regan Street. Parking is available on the street.
