Lexie's Trading Post is located in Louisville, Kentucky on Frankfort Avenue and are BIG FAT Trolley Hop Friday Supporters. So here is your reminder than the FAT Trolley Hop is coming up quick! This is a Fun, Free and Family Friendly Event that supports directly local business in Louisville, Kentucky. Bring your appetite and the family, we’ll see you there!

FAT Trolley Hop Friday Reminder: Friday, April 26th!

Let’s go to the Hop!

Explore the Clifton, Crescent Hill and Butchertown neighborhoods by way of a trolley ride! The FAT Friday Trolley Hop was launched in 2004 and has become a signature event on Frankfort Avenue. Held year-round on the final Friday of every month from 6:00pm-10:00pm, this event draws attracts thousands of people to enjoy free trolley rides to participating shops, restaurants and galleries along the Frankfort, Mellwood and Story Avenue corridor. Many of the businesses host live music and entertainment, complimentary refreshments and special sales on trolley hop nights.

NEW EXTENDED TROLLEY ROUTE! We are excited to announce the trolley route has been permanently extended and will now stretch from Mellwood and Story Avenue to Cannon’s Lane. The Frankfort Avenue Business Association relies on the support of member businesses to cover the cost of the trolley service so that it can be available for free to the public.

The warmer weather will bring larger crowds to The Avenue. The next Trolley Hop is Friday, April 26th and is sponsored by our newest sponsor - Schlafly Beer. Schlafly is a regionally brewed beer and only distributed 300 miles within St. Louis. Cool huh? How do you pronounce Schlafly? It’s pretty simple...“Schlaf” is pronounced like the word “laugh” and “ly” is pronounced “lee”.  Put them together and you have “Schlaugh-lee”. There you have it. Now get out there and drink Schlafly beer!

WOW! Humbling isn't it?... =0|

General Knowledge (LIKE them of Facebook)

An anthropologist proposed a game to the kids in an African tribe. He put a basket full of fruit near a tree and told the kids that whoever got there first won the sweet fruits. When he told them to run they all took each others hands and ran together, then sat together enjoying their treats. When he asked them why they had run like that as one could have had all the fruits for himself they said: ''UBUNTU, how can one of us be happy if all the other ones are sad?''

'UBUNTU' in the Xhosa culture means: 

"I am because we are"
