"Dr. Phil Aaron was a friend of mine for almost 50 years. His was the face I could always count on seeing when I visited Adair County. He was caring. He was brilliant. He lived a life in service of others. It's impossible to miss the impact he has made in our commonwealth, in Adair, and in the hearts of everyone gathered today." - Dr. Chuck Giles, August 13, 2016.

New Med Center Health Sports Medicine Complex at WKU 2016-08-21 - WKU, Bowling Green, KY - Photo from Bob Skipper, Director of Media Relations, WKU. Construction of the new Med Center Health Sports Medicine Complex, concept drawing above, on WKU’s campus is expected to begin in January 2017 and will include a 57,000 square foot, two-story building that will be located between the existing football practice field and the baseball field. The present football practice field will be enclosed to create an additional 83,000 square feet, and the existing field surface will be replaced with an artificial turf. Enclosure of the existing practice field will create an indoor training/education facility that can be used year-round by the campus and for other community based events promoting good health and exercise. The new facility will include a full size practice field for football; sprint lanes for track and training; netting for baseball, softball and golf; a high jump area; a long jump pit; and a pole vault pit. Construction is expected to be completed in late spring of 2018. WKU’s Department of Physical Therapy, currently located on The Medical Center’s campus in the Health Sciences Complex (HSC), will move into the new Med Center Health Sports Medicine Complex, thus freeing up the third floor of the HSC to become the home of the new UK College of Medicine-Bowling Green campus. - Bob Skipper Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Crosswalk which means it at Holladay Place 2016-08-21 - Dohoney Trace, Holladay Place, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. There are no physical barriers nor stop signs to alert motorists that this is a pedestrian crossing, but emphatically strong visual cues do much the same thing to alert motorists, in any weather, that this is a pedestrian crossing. Heavier lines, with the railroad or ladder cross stripes, alert drivers. All one has to do to realize this is to remember how hard it was to find Edmonton Road from Burkesville Road when the new highway was just built at night, before the highway was striped. Similar striping is needed Downtown Columbia. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
