Co-Chairpersons of “Feed Evansville” Are Alex Burton and Lisa Vaughan

When Covid-19 impacted Evansville, Indiana, in mid-March, Community Activist Lisa Vaughan and Evansville City Council President Alex Burton started a grassroots effort to ensure the Tri-State had food access Covid-19 government shutdown. The effort was so successful it led to the Mayor of Evansville deeming the Feed Evansville Group the official government Food Security task force of the area and named Lisa and Alex the co-chairs. These efforts also shined a light on Food Security as an issue within the area. The mayor officially announced that work would need to be ongoing after the pandemic is over.

Feed Evansville organized a communication hub and tracked what every organization was doing (both businesses and non-profit). The task force created and shared a weekly food access flyer so community members would know where to receive services and published grocery & restaurant hours through social media, TV, radio, and emailed organizations to spread the word. All services have been provided through fundraising and in-kind donations.

City Councilman Alex Burton was born and raised in Evansville, IN. He graduated from Indiana State University with a degree in Communications. As an undergraduate, he had the opportunity to intern with Mayor Jonathan Weinzapfel, which led him to attain his Master’s in Public Administration from Western Kentucky. During this time, he interned for two Members of Congress.

Alex returned to Evansville to serve his community. He serves as Vice President of the City Council and has sought to make positive traction in workforce development, housing, food insecurity, and public education.

Community Volunteer Lisa Vaughn moved to Evansville in 2016.  She has studied Music Education and Pastoral Counseling.  Lis is a 14-year active member and Past President of the Junior League of Evansville, and is the current Placement Chair, and has chaired several JLE committees.  Lisa has been involved in various activities and has offered countless hours of volunteer service in the community.  

Lisa says, “I have experienced situations throughout my life where I witnessed a lack of support to others in need.  Joining the Junior League of Evansville in 2007 provided me with skills and training to be a civic leader so I could advocate, execute, and market an event.  It taught me to network and collaborate, as well as taught me about being committed to community impact.”

Thank you, Alex and Lisa, for your hard work and commitment to the Feed Evansville project!

Retired Vanderburgh County Superior Court Judge Rich D’Amour 

Former Superior Court Judge Rich D’Amour has earned the repetition of being fair, impartial, and objective while adhering to the law’s letter. He is very personable and well respected. Judge D’Amour moved to Evansville in July of 1981 after getting his undergraduate degree from Notre Dame and his law degree from Indiana University.

During the time he has practiced law, he had the pleasure of working with many fine partners. His practice areas were primarily as a deputy prosecutor for 19 years, and he estimates he has tried over 150 criminal jury trials and done several thousand divorces.

Judge D’Amour has served on numerous state judicial committees, including the domestic relations committee, where he helped draft the Indiana Child Support Guidelines, the Parenting Time Guidelines, and the Parenting Time Calendar.  He established the Alternative Dispute Resolution Fund in Vanderburgh County, which helps provide mediation services to low-income litigants. In 2016 he was one of six judges in Indiana chosen to start the new Indiana Commercial Court, a system of courts specifically developed to address business and commercial litigation. These courts are now permanently established in Indiana and are being adopted by other counties throughout the state.

In 2005, seeking a change from the law’s hectic practice, Rich was appointed as Magistrate in the Vanderburgh Superior Court. He served in that position until 2011, when he was fortunate enough to be elected Judge in the Vanderburgh Superior Court, which he held when he retired on April 1, 2021.  After nearly 40 years in the legal profession, Judge D’ Amour moved to Asheville, North Carolina, with his wife, Holly, to begin his next adventure.

Former Vanderburgh County Treasurer And County Clerk Susan Kirk

Former Vanderburgh County Treasurer, Susan Kirk, has been one of Vanderburgh County’s greatest assets and best-kept secrets. She has done her job with fairness and integrity, following the laws and regulations set by the state. People like Susan Kirk run for public office because they really want to serve people and make a difference.

Susan’s political career began in 1968. At that time, she was working as a dental assistant. Remembering that May and November are typically busy times in the County Treasurer’s Office, her father asked her to come work for him part-time.  She was then offered a full-time position as a secretary at The Centre. Later, when Shirley Cox was elected Clerk, she asked Susan to come to work for her in the Election Office. 

While she has worked in a political atmosphere for most of her life, Susan doesn’t consider herself a seasoned politician. While most people have viewed her as the Vanderburgh County Clerk, she’s much more than that. Take one step into her office and look around. She is adventurous and family-oriented. Her office is decorated with photos of her son, granddaughter, and 97-year-old mother, who incidentally still lives with her. She also has a certificate from a tandem jump from her lone skydiving adventure. And let’s not forget her Indiana Women’s Golf Association Hole-In-One certificate from a perfectly played hole at Quail Crossing Golf Club.

Susan Kirk retired at the end of 2020, after serving the public in appointed and elected offices for over 50 years.  “I really can’t complain. I’m very thankful for the life I have. I enjoy my job, and I have a wonderful, healthy family with my two brothers, my son, my granddaughter, and my mother,” said Susan softly.

Honorable Mayor Lloyd Winnecke

Lloyd Winnecke was inaugurated on January 1, 2012, as the 34th mayor of Evansville, Indiana. Mayor Winnecke is a graduate of Central High School with a Bachelor of Science in Communication from the University of Evansville.  A native of Evansville with a successful business background in banking communications and news information, Mayor Winnecke held numerous public and private sector management positions before assuming the role of the city’s top executive official.

Before becoming Mayor, Lloyd’s position as Senior Vice President and Marketing Director for Fifth Third Bank taught him the business skills he brought to the city government. Before joining the bank, Lloyd Winnecke spent nearly two decades in the television news industry, working in several markets, including Louisville and Indianapolis. He was News Director at WEHT-TV News 25 in Henderson, Ky., before switching from news to banking.

In the public sector, the mayor was elected to the Vanderburgh County Commission in 2008 and served as President of the County Commissioners. Before that, he served nine years on the Vanderburgh County Council, including three years as County Council President and one year as Council Finance Chairman. As a county official, Lloyd proposed balanced budgets for 11 straight years and held per capita spending to 43% below the state average. He has never lost an election.

In 2012, Lloyd and his wife, Carol, were honored with the Keep Evansville Beautiful Volunteer of the Year Award for launching the monthly litter pick-up initiative, Clean Evansville, and inspiring others to help keep Evansville beautiful. Last year, the Indiana Association of City and Towns recognized the City of Evansville with the 2013 IACT Community Achievement Award and the 2013 IACT Green Community of the Year Award for promoting civic pride, work ethic, and the spirit of volunteerism through various city activities, in particular Clean Evansville. . In 2013, Mayor Winnecke was named an honorary member of the West Side Nut Club for his enthusiastic support of the community and the city’s West Side.

The Mayor has served on the Boards of Evansville Civic Theatre, Gilda’s Club of Evansville, the American Red Cross, the Evansville African American Museum, and the University of Evansville Purple Aces Club. He also serves on the Economic Development Coalition of Southwest Indiana and the ITAC (city-county information technology committee). He is a past board member and current volunteer for the Easter Seals Rehabilitation Center and a past cabinet member for the local United Way campaign. Other organizational involvements include the Evansville Parks Foundation, Wesselman Nature Center, the University of Evansville Theatre Society, Reitz Home Museum, University of Southern Indiana Arts and Humanities, and Junior Achievement.

Indiana Attorney General Signs Letter Asking Biden To Reverse Vaccine Mandate

Indiana Attorney General Signs Letter Asking Biden To Reverse Vaccine Mandat

 

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita joins 23 other state attorney generals to release a letter calling on President Joe Biden to reverse his recent vaccine mandate.

The mandate would require government workers and private contractors to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Private employers with more than 100 employees have to have their employees either be vaccinated or participate in a weekly COVID-19 test. Refusal would result in an employee’s termination.

Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb has also recently criticized the mandate last Friday for requiring the vaccine, tests or termination.

The attorney generals’ letter criticized Biden’s mandate, saying it will cause people to be skeptical of the vaccine and further push them from wanting to get it.

The letter said the mandate will do more harm than good for Americans, such as taking some citizens out of the job market because they refuse to comply.

“Your plan is disastrous and counterproductive,” the letter said. “From a policy perspective, this edict is unlikely to win hearts and minds — it will simply drive further skepticism.”

The attorney generals said the mandate is illegal and flawed because of how Biden is proceeding with it. They said there are less intrusive ways to achieve Biden’s goals, and the use of the Occupational Safety and Health Act to issue the mandate is unnecessary.

If Biden does not reverse his plan, the letter said the attorney generals will pursue all legal avenues to stop the mandate.“We thus urge you to reconsider your unlawful and harmful plan and allow people to make their own decisions,” the letter said.
