Letters

  • LETTER: Thank you, utility workers

     I want to say a big thank you to all the LG&E utility workers for their hard work and long hours getting our gas back on in Magnolia during the outage.

    I appreciate all our utility workers. They do a great job.

  • LETTER: Community has been caring

       For as long as I can remember, my family has been coming to Buffalo every year to my aunt and uncle's house, Rob and Nina Hutchins, for Thanksgiving. In fact, one of our annual traditions was inevitably getting lost, no matter which route we took, on the drive there from Bowling Green.

    I never once thought that one day I would call Buffalo my home. God, as he often does, had other plans.

  • LETTER: Arts grant provided great entertainment

     Arts Council grant provided great entertainment

    I enjoyed your review/editorial/column on the production of "Hairspray" held here. And I agree that the theatre-type venues we have available to us here (the high school theater, the Civic Center and others) could be used more.

  • LETTER: Cemetery flowers: Thou shalt not steal

     On a very nice fall day, as countless many previous times, I drove into Red Hill Cemetery.

    The scene was so beautiful; a nice smooth pavement, the result of a job well done – the many hues of the leaves glistening in the sun. In all, a perfect day to enjoy a visit and pay respect to my parents; that is, until I approached only to discover someone had taken not only the beautiful fall arrangement of my parents, as well as the decorative wrought iron stand to which they were attached.

     I am writing this letter to inform my fellow Kentucky hunters and fishermen of the important decision we all have on Nov. 6. As you may already know, there is a question on this year’s ballot concerning our fundamental hunting rights and an amendment to the Kentucky Constitution.

  • LETTER: Blood drive was successful

     Thank you to the 25 individuals who volunteered to donate blood on Oct. 9 at the Hodgenville Woman’s Club.

    One individual gave using the “double red” procedure. We received 25 good units of blood and met our goal.

    Thanks to Rob Brown, Becky Loyall and Linda Stearman for assisting at the drive and The Sweet Shoppe for a tray of candy.

    Many thanks for your support of the community blood drive which is sponsored by the Hodgenville Woman’s Club.

    The next blood drive is Dec. 11.

  • LETTER: Thank you from Springhaven

     Nationally, one in four women and about one in seven men will experience serious effects of domestic violence in their lifetime. Sadly, there are also more than three million children who witness and are affected by domestic violence in their home each year.

  • LETTER: Washington prescribes Wall Street rules for Main Street

     It’s a long way from Wall Street, but communities such as LaRue County are on track to face the kinds of regulations imposed on the monumental financial institutions in New York. Regulations due out in a matter of weeks would unnecessarily subject Main Street community banks to the same complex capital requirements as Wall Street megabanks. If you don’t think that’s going to make a tangible difference that will hurt LaRue County, think again.
