Carol Perkins: Go Eme Go Previous Column: Sticky Mess By Carol Perkins I watched the game as if I knew the rules. I applauded when the fans behind me clapped their hands. As I studied the field and watched the plays, I saw a pattern much like basketball. Throw the ball, which was a hard rubber ball, to the teammate holding a stick with a minnow-type net on the end, and the teammate tossed the ball to another teammate whose goal was to sling it as hard as possible into the net (goal). This goal was like soccer with a "goalie" trying to keep it from reaching the net. This sport was foreign to me, but I soon realized that when one team was ahead by ten points, the clock ran down to zero. Lacrosse is my granddaughter Eme's sport, and we went to Austin to see her play two games. I may now be an expert. As I watched her play, I thought about when she was little and how we cheered when she ran up and down the soccer field, her blond ponytail swaying.

First 2023 Saturday Session at Genealogy & History Research Ctr By Mike Watson Most early settlers in the Adair County area came into the region one of two ways--Through the Cumberland Gap, then north west into south central Kentucky, or down the Ohio River to Limestone, now Maysville, or to the Falls of the Ohio, now Louisville, then overland into the interior. Following animal trails--primarily buffalo and elk--early settlers walked or rode horseback as they came to the settlement areas. Only later did wheeled vehicles traverse the tracks into the areas of growing population. Learn more about migration into Kentucky and Adair County at our next Saturday Session, from NoonCT to 2pmCT on Saturday, April 1, 2023, at the Adair Genealogy & History Research Center.

Letter: I feel it is time for a change Mary Bardin writes: In response to Wm Feese' comments, I agree with Heather Spoon and agree Adair County so badly needs an Occupational Tax. I disagree with Wm Feese on the fact everyone wants change. I attended the Fiscal Court meeting last night and could not believe the magistrates are so against bringing in extra revenue for Adair County. That tells me people do not want change.

Circuit Court Clerk's Office celebrates National Donate Life Month Every April, Adair County Circuit Court Clerk Dennis Loy celebrates National Donate Life Month in partnership with the Kentucky Circuit Court Clerks' Trust For Life and Donate Life America. "Donors are true heroes who provide hope and life to beloved dads and husbands, like Joey," said Dennis Loy, Adair County Circuit Court Clerk.

Yet the number of people in need of transplants continues to outpace the number of organs donated." National Donate Life Month focuses on the importance of registering your decision to be a donor, honoring deceased and living donors, and celebrating the lives they saved. It is the generosity of donors and donor families that makes saving lives through transplantation possible.
