Laura Heuser says schools not in job recruitment business

My question is when did the school superintendent start working for the Economic Development Council. Having positive relationships with local business is always a plus for schools, but that the schools don't pay for bringing business to a community. I figure that the schools are in such a state that he should be focusing on child and teacher development and leave economic development to those being paid and supported by appropriate funds. -LAURA HEUSER

2006 Gradyville Oilfield: Hamlett strike said to be fed by three streams



2006-06-23 - Gradyville, KY - Photo Daril Salyers.

Another great well on the Willie Nell, now Ricky and Barry Hamlett, Place?

It could be one of the great strikes. The very promising oil strike was made Thursday, June 22, 2006, on the Ricky and Barry Hamlett farm at Gradyville, KY, by Jimmy Reliford Drilling Co., Sparksville, KY, owner of the lease with For Real Enterprises, owned by Larry Smith of California. Three crews are coming in Monday to install storage tanks and put the wells on pump, at which time the rate of production can be more accurately predicted. Many oil people believe the signs point to 50-60 barrels a day. The well is on the Willie Nell Place, not far from the legendary Willie Nell Oil Well, one of the longest producing wells in Kentucky. According to Ricky Hamlett, the well was mapped and showed oil streamng in from three fractures It was an exciting enough time in Gradyville yesterday that Daril Salyers, co-proprietor of D & F Grocery, in Gradyville, took time off to see and photograph the historic event. For those unfamiliar with the area, the well is less than one mile south of the Louie B. Nunn Parkway at about the 42-43 mile markers. In the photo above are, from left, Joey Keith, Larry Reliford, Hardy (), Barry Hamlett, and Jonathan Burris.

Feedback: Board Member tells were LL money goes

"I wish people/parents would . . . say 'What can I do to help'?"

Hello again. I would like to respond to Mr. Roy's question about where all the Little League money goes.

My husband is a board member for Little League and I attend meetings with him at times. We have a treasurer who reads/hands out financial reports at meetings as they are scheduled to do. Meetings are open to the public and board members/officers welcome anyone wishing to attend.
