LWC Women's Tennis wins in comeback fashion at MSC Semifinals By Chris Wells Owensboro, KY - Top-seeded Lindsey Wilson women's tennis led just once today and at the most important time, beating fourth-seeded Cumberland (TN) 5-4 in the Mid-South Conference Tournament semifinals at Owensboro Tennis Complex. The 14th-ranked Blue Raiders trailed 2-1 after doubles and 3-2 and 4-3 during singles play but rebounded to win to advance to the tournament finals next Saturday in Bowling Green, KY. Lindsey Wilson has some time to relish the semifinal win thanks to a dreadful weather forecast. The tournament championship match has been postponed until 10amCT on Saturday, April 27 where the Blue Raiders face the winner of second-seeded Georgetown (KY) and third-seeded Cumberlands (KY) at Kereiakes Park, 1220 Fairview Ave, Bowling Green, KY.

Letter: Portable restroom? Billy Joe Fudge writes: A simple solution would be for the Farmer's Market to rent a portable toilet. This is a weekly reoccurring event which is such an asset to our South Central Regional Community and would in effect be an advertising bonanza for the portable toilet company! Given these factors, I would think management at Farmer's Market might be able to negotiate a favorable contract with a local provider. --BJFComments re article 103579 Mayor Pam Hoots provides statement on Farmers Market 2019-04-19 07:59:45 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
Mayor Pam Hoots provides statement on Farmers Market The Farmers Market on the Square is an asset to our community; and, I like many of you, enjoy Saturday mornings at the market. It has become a weekly habit to visit the Market, see friends, and renew old acquaintances. Recently the City Council and leaders of the Farmer's Market on the Square entered into a new agreement, which renews annually. The most recent agreement outlines the times and days in which the parking lot located at the corner of Merchant and Campbellsville street is to be used for parking and the times it is to be used as a market. The new agreement also protects the City from any third-party liability claims as a result of the Market. I realize that some decisions may not be popular; but, my responsibility is to ensure that I do what is best for; and protect the citizens of Columbia and the interests of the City of Columbia.
