Laura Marcum: Children love getting own library card

Children especially like live reptile show.

Laura Marcum writes:
In support of our Adair County Public Library Summer Reading Program and previous article, I just wanted to say that our family really enjoyed our experience this past summer. My children loved getting their own library card and checking out their own books. They really liked making crafts that went along with the different topics of the summer. They especially liked the live reptile show. Since I attended the programs with them, I also learned a few things. Thank you to our Public Library and community for this program. - Laura Marcum

Jon Halsey writes in support of Ed Pipalski notion

Jon Halsey
Personal opinion of the writer

A great idea that should be explored and researched. Unfortunately, the proposer will need something stronger than two aspirin when he crashes head first against the impenetrable wall of political reality and fiefdom.

Wouldn't this be a wonderful world if we could have only people in elected office who were truly disinterested promoters of the public good.

- Jon Halsey, Knifley, KY

Ed Pipalski proposes consolidating public library administrations

Comments re article 65555 Public libraries offer valuable educational experiences for all

by Ed Pipalski
Personal opinion of the writer

Use the Public Library weekly; books, paper and audio, movies and research. It is a great asset for Kentucky Communities. Having said that, I am dismayed by the fact that, "We the People" are taxed for two or more separate "Libraries" in nearly every county across the State.

Sinkhole Field Trip - has it already been

Charles Marshburn writes: Did I miss the sink hole field trip with Professor Fudge? I realize it takes time to plan such an event and I am hoping it is still on his agenda. Since I have retired a couple of times, I find it difficult to remember how I had time to work. Perhaps he could do many of us a favor and work this field trip in to one of his busy days. - Charles Marshburn Thanks for the reminder. We haven't heard if the field trip has taken place or is planned. But it would be a good idea for a Trail Town bike or hike path. They are now making an inventory of established route. They've already got several in mind. - CM
