Rare, Not Exotic: Special plants found right here in Columbia

A unique essay about local treasures, prepared with the kind support and approval of the Columbia Parks Board

By Alicia Bosela

Imagine walking outside through a doorway onto a lawn (fescue grass origin: Europe), past a Bradford pear tree (origin: China), a privet hedge (origin: northern Africa, Europe), and decorative winter creeper (origin: China, Japan, Korea). Where might you be? Here in Columbia, New York, North Carolina, Illinois, some place overseas? Yes.

But Columbia, KY is quite special. I'll not forget the first time driving down with the kids, "Oh, look! A dead skunk!" and the rolling green hills, the many types of birds & bugs, the blackness at night. I honestly know people who have never seen or smelled a dead skunk, and they too hail from urban areas. If you study plants, not like a gardener, but as one who studies plants that grow in wild places, this place is a genuine treasure. And I refer not just to the plants outside town.

Adair schools see attendance remaining mostly steady

No major flu-like outbreaks this year

By Alan W. Reed

As we prepare to dismiss for the Christmas/New Year break, I am pleased to report that no major flu or flu-like illness outbreaks have occurred in our school district.

Many of you have seen the state map with flu impacted counties in "red" and I have had many people stop me and ask if flu has shown up in our student population. I have pulled our numbers from the past week and here is how we have shaped up across our district:
  • Mon 12/08 - 94.41%
  • Tue 12/09 - 94.06%
  • Wed 12/10 - 94.89%
  • Thu 12/11 - 94.78%
  • Fri 12/12 - 93.96%
  • Mon 12/15 - 93.25%
  • Tue 12/16 - 93.58%
Our attendance numbers are down just a little, with stomach illnesses being the major culprit.​ We continue to remind students to wash their hands frequently. Alan W. Reed, Superintendent, Adair County Schools, 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY 42728. Phone: 270-384-2476

Economic Development takes center stage

Big Question: Why an Adair County Economic Development Meeting in Campbellsville? Holly Grimsley says its a matter of focus for the most productive meeting possible.The meeting is set for Tuesday, January 20, 2014, starting at 8:30amCT/9:30amET, and lasting all day in the community room of the United Citizens Bank, 294 Campbellsville Bypass, Campbellsville, KY.
Story followup to C/AC Economic Development Report, for 16 Dec 2014

By Ed Waggener

The talk of the town was economic development after news of CACEDA's meeting spread throughout the community yesterday morning. Generally, the buzz was optimistic. One point of contention was wondering why the board would choose to hold its Planning Workshop in Campbellsville, KY instead of Adair County.

Holly Grimsley, the EDA's Ambassador, who will be the facilitator of the meeting, said it's simply a matter of focus and productivity. "The real reason we want to be a short distance out of Adair County is that when we're here, it's too easy to get to comfortable and pop in and out of the meetings. The group simply has to be focused on the goals of the planning session." She continued, "The location in Campbellsville in the United Citizen's Bank community building will be provided at no cost to the EDA. Members will pay their own expenses to travel the 18 miles there. It's not so far from Green River Commerce Park, and it will provide the atmosphere for a very productive meeting."
