Bit to Do [1]

This evening, the historic Belle of Louisville [4]will be racing the Belle of Cincinnati [5] on the mighty Ohio River [6] beginning at 6 p.m.

Traditionally, the race is held during the Kentucky Derby Festival [7], but high water on the river forced KDF officials to postpone the race.

The race has only been rescheduled a few times since racing began in 1963.

For those planning to head down to WFPK's Waterfront Wednesday [8] this evening by the Big Four Bridge, the two steamboats racing down the Ohio should provide an extra exciting background to an already exciting live music event.
