Wesley Meadows’ Brigade seeks bikes for Christmas

Wesley Meadows United Methodist Churh is sponsoring the bike brigade which is part of the Santa Run held on Christmas Eve in LaRue County.

The project officer for the bike brigade is Robbin Redmon.

The Santa Run consists of the Rudolph Bus (a repurposed school bus), along with fire trucks, squad cars, a caravan of pickups and cattle trailers making five stops in the community giving food, toys and bicycles to underprivileged children.

Thank you, blood donors

I want to thank the 42 individuals who volunteered to give blood Tuesday at the Hodgenville Woman’s Club. We received 37 good units of blood.

Thanks to Becky Loyall and Phyllis Blakeman for working at the drive. Thanks to the Sweet Shoppe for a tray of fudge.

The community blood drive is sponsored by the Hodgenville Woman’s Club.

The blood drive will return Oct. 14.

Fort Knox is important to our region

AGstravaganza was enjoyable

Congratulations on a super event.

I very much enjoyed the variety and mix of the agri-experience throughout our community. This is a great educational opportunity for our youth as well as adults. To learn that local cabbage is not only grown and sold but also contains the value-added element of coleslaw production. And to find that local corn has become an important ingredient in Kentucky bourbon distilling is most satisfying to me.

Take pride in our town

I really love living in Hodgenville. I didn’t grown up here, but I do plan on growing old and raising my children here.

The only thing I do wish is that the community would take more pride in the way this town looks and how they keep their homes and lawns.

My family keeps our yard and home as nice as we possibly can, but I see homes with old cars, trash and grown up lawns and think. “wow, this is our city.” This is your home – take pride in it.
