Birds of Kentucky: Great Blue Heron in flight



2010-02-23 - Shelbyville - Photo by Pen. Though a controversial creature for some, no one can deny the beauty of a Great Blue Heron in flight. This one was in Shelby County, but the birds are now very common around the lakes, ponds, and streams of South Central Kentucky.

Judge Melton asks for help on identifying bad road situations

Winter weather delivers heavy damage to county road system and is taking heavy toll on county treasury. Road department is working to keep up with damage. Judge Melton asks for input on roads which need attention. Kids safety, welfare of seniors, mail delivery access are top priority. Efforts will go to roads used by school buses, for school bus turn-arounds, and for U.S. Mail pull-offs first, Judge Melton said.

To the People of Adair County

The past few months have proven to be a colder and wetter winter than we have experienced in several years.

Unfortunately, the results of the past few months weather has and will continue to cause extreme damage to our county roads. Since December we have spread $48,167.99 of salt on our county roads. This does not include the salt that was already stockpiled from last year.

Sycamore Springs to launch secret weapon in Battle of the Blooms

About: As Greenbriar goes, so goes Columbia KY 3 days later

Ed,

Seems there is a race to see which, and whose spring flowers bloom first in Adair County. My crocuses are up, but not a bloom in sight, so I am off to Walmart to buy them a Snuggie in hopes that Sycamore Springs gets the first blooms of spring.

As always,
s/Cynthia Meyer

I like it. I think that is illegal. Very sneaky. But I like it. But, as a famous Metcalfe Countian once said, "I won't breath a word of it, to anyone." I won't 'breath' a word of it, especially to the Garden Police. Your secret is safe with us. -EW

SCC discussion highlights the loneliness
of breaking South's segregation


Two giants of education, both products of a segregated South - one a white Alabamian, the other an African-American of Mississippi - deliver a spellbinding presentation before a standing room only audience in highlight of Black History Month at Somerset Community College

By Dave Cazalet, Jr.

Dr. Lillie McCain, a Professor of Psychology at Mott Community College in Flint, Michigan, and Dr. Jo Marshall, the President and CEO of Somerset Community College talked about growing up in the southern United States during segregation on Thursday, February 18, 2010.

The duo spoke to a standing-room only crowd in the SCC Student Commons. The event was the highlight of Black History Month at SCC.

McCain adds song to story

McCain mixed songs from the Civil Rights Movement in with her recollections of that time in history.

"I grew up in a very segregated community," McCain recalled. "My generation was the last one that grew up picking cotton in the fields of Mississippi."

Farmers Bank of Cane Valley, KY:
Jim finds report of voluntary liquidation


Cane Valley Bank in Liquidation
From the January 22, 1941 Adair County News

Compiled by "Jim"

An announcement is made today that the Farmers Bank of Cane Valley, located at Cane Valley, 6 miles from Columbia, has closed its doors in voluntary liquidation. J.S. Squires, president, stated that the bank had paid no dividends for several years and that the directors, realizing that there was not sufficient business to operate the bank profitably, had decided to liquidate.

Mr. Squires further stated that the bank was in good financial condition and sufficient funds had been deposited in the Bank of Columbia, this city, to pay all depositors in full.

While the bank ceased to operate today, it will be kept open to issue checks to depositors, who are requested to call as soon as possible.

The banks first officers were T.T. Tupman, president; S.L. Banks, Vice-President; and D.O. Eubank, cashier. They were succeeded by the present officers: J.S. Squires, President; Lee Farris, Vice-President; S.N.B. Hancock, cashier; and Miss Norene Cofer, assistant cashier. Directors are: Ira Vaughn, James Vaughn, Lee Farris, Lindsey Watson, and Tyler Tupman.

The list of names presented above as the "first officers is somewhat misleading. Messrs. Tupman, Banks, and Eubank were the first officers of the reorganized Farmers Bank of Cane Valley which (re)opened in late 1919. Mr. Tupman had also been an officer in the original bank of 1907-1910.

An entry in the Cane Valley newsletter published two weeks later in the News stated simply, "We are sorry to know the Farmers Bank, of this place, will soon be closed. The bank was a great help to the people of this community."

ACHS A-teams have built on legacy of great 1986 squad

Russ Walker, Shane Arnold, Fred Rowe and Chris Rowe are still referenced in current team practices. Their pioneering efforts are the foundation for Tradition of Excellence which continues to grow at Adair County High School

About: Thrilled that ACHS still sets academic competition standard

By Brett Reliford, Coach, Adair Co. Academic Teams

1986 was the first year for KAAC Governor's Cup "statewide" competition.

At that time, that is correct: that it was new to the state and only a few metro schools and a few regional outlier schools that were involved.

Pikeville High School won the first ever Governor's Cup State Championship according to KAAC records.

However, Adair County was involved in a quiz bowl State Championship win in the KET Scholastic Challenge, which (I think) was a year before KAAC and the current Governor's Cup format started up.
