The Long-Overdue Vacation

By Donna Rieder

A few months back, I was sitting across the table from my friend Linda Waggener at the Black Stallion restaurant, making plans for a much-needed and long-overdue mini-vacation.

Although I'd done some fun things - kayaking from Rockhouse to Winfrey's Landing a few times, and hiking at Lake Cumberland State Park - the only time I'd spent a single night away from home since I moved here in 2008, is when I'd had surgery. It's so hard to get away when you've got a bunch of animals, especially livestock, and I was ready for an adventure!

On a sunny Thursday morning a few weeks ago, I drove down my driveway and locked my gate behind me. Linda was in the passenger seat, and we were both looking forward to getting away, even if it was only for two days!

Our first destination was Shaker Village.

KSP: Marion County school teacher arrested for sexual offenses

From Trooper Jonathan Houk

Lebanon, KY - Kentucky State Police (KSP) Post 15 Troopers and Detectives have arrested a Marion County Schools teacher following an investigation into allegations of sexual contact with students.

In late May 2026, KSP Post 15 received a request for assistance from the Lebanon Police Department to investigate allegations of possible sexual contact between a 34 year old Lebanon man and at least two juvenile students. The man was employed by Marion County Schools as a teacher and served as the Marion County High School Band Director at the time of the alleged offenses.

KY General Fund and Road Fund receipts for July 2026

Frankfort, KY - The Office of State Budget Director reported today that General Fund receipts rose 29.1 percent in July to begin Fiscal Year 2027 (FY27). This is one of the highest monthly growth rates in four years. Total revenues for the month were $1,459.8 million, an increase of $328.7 million over July 2025 receipts.

The official revenue estimate for FY27 calls for revenue to decline 0.5 percent compared to FY26actual receipts. Therefore, receipts can drop by 2.7 percent over the remaining eleven months of the fiscal year and still meet the General Fund revenue estimate.

Adair Co. FFA earns a 3-Star rating at the National Level!

From Gabby Barnes
Agriculture Educator, FFA Advisor

Each year, the National FFA Organization recognizes high-quality programs across the country with their chapter rating contest. The contest looks at 15 of the chapter's activities throughout the year, and evaluates the overall impact of the chapter in their community and school. This year, Adair County FFA earned a gold rating at the state level, and was selected as one of the top 19 chapters in Kentucky.

After advancing to the national level, Adair County FFA received a three-star rating, which is the highest rating possible. This places Adair County FFA in the top 4% of chapters in the country!

It is an honor to be recognized at such a high level, but it would not be possible without fantastic FFA members and a supportive community. Each activity included in the application required enormous amounts of planning and work from FFA members, parents, and alumni & supporters. Featured activities included events such as our annual Farmer Appreciation Lunch, crop scouting, the new greenhouse grand opening, and so many more that are only made possible through the support of our community.

The judges that scored the applications were able to learn about what makes Adair County FFA so wonderful. They read about our FFA members teaching children about agriculture through the Farm Safety Days and reading programs. They learned about how we work with the NRCS to prepare for the land judging contest each fall. What they read about was only a small portion of what we do, but it was enough to prove we are worth celebrating. Adair County FFA is officially being recognized as one of the best FFA chapters in the nation!

If you have served as a judge or guest speaker, allowed FFA members to use your farm for practice, or simply made the time to come by and grab a bite to eat when we are cooking in the ag shop, thank you. Our success would not be possible without you!

"One of the things that makes Kentucky special is the way our communities rally around children and families in need," Shaw said.

Lanterns & Tombstones at Mount Carmel was excellent

From Dave Thomas and Mike Watson

A huge thank you from Dave and Mike to all those who came out to Mount Carmel Cemetery for Friday night's Lanterns & Tombstones Tour. We had an excellent event, wandered over the cemetery, told a few stories, and we learned some great information for a future event.

A little history: Mount Carmel Cemetery is located adjacent to the Mount Carmel Church. When Green River lands were impounded and the Lake began forming, many small cemeteries in the area were to be relocated. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers were to move all known burials to newly designated sites. Twenty-four graveyards were moved to Mount Carmel.

Those moved were: Johnston, Mont E. Corbin, Cox, Old Mt. Carmel, Chester Corbin, Loy, Leach, Watson-Rice, Overstreet, Ballou, Riall, Renfro, Pike, ourning, Russell, Feese, Arnold, Tucker, Plum Point, Christie, Knifley, Watson, Thomas, Campbell, and Fischer--the Fischer Cemetery was not originally moved here, it was missed in the relocation process. Later, at low water, some fishermen spotted the stones above water, reported it and the Corps came to relocate it.

All graves were to be removed, even those with fieldstone markers, and those with no marker but with evidence that it was a burial site.

Holmes Bend Marina riding a new tourism wave

By Mig Feuser / The Adair Progress

After weathering one of the most difficult seasons in its history last year, Holmes Bend Marina is enjoying reaching new heights. The Columbia-Adair Chamber of Commerce will hold its August lunch meeting at the Marina on Green River Lake Tuesday, August 11.

Governor Andy Beshear recently announced that Kentucky tourism generated an all-time record $14.6 billion in economic impact during 2025, marking the fourth consecutive record-breaking year for the state's tourism industry. More than 81.1 million visitors traveled throughout Kentucky, spending $10.4 billion directly while supporting nearly 97,000 jobs statewide.

For Adair County, those statewide trends translate into visitors discovering Green River Lake, Holmes Bend Marina and the county's growing outdoor recreation opportunities. The most recent county figures show tourism contributes $18.1 million annually to Adair County's economy, supports 129 local jobs, generates $3.2 million in labor income and produces more than $1.1 million in state and local tax revenue.

Phillip Coffey - Dad and Mom

By Phillip Coffey

Born early on a Monday morning, after “Dinner” took on the plow.
Life was never easy but it must be done, always had a sly smile that got him through it. Next thing you know much more to do for his country, took upon Infantry training when he was just beyond the age of 21. Kept going tho none of it was much fun.

Wearing his fatigues every day, shipped across the Atlantic to take on the Huns. Heard them moving their armaments into the night.
Flashbacks of memories of a Parson moving his supplies in the evenings so quiet with only the sounds of the wagon wheels crackling the rocks, tossing in flight.

One hundred and five years ago is a long time ago when Dad was born.
Now with mom who still remains always smiles at me when I see her with an Angelic glow.

Scenic Kentucky: Octagon Hall


2026-08-10 - Franklin, KY - Photo by Pam Capozziello.
Pam writes, "This is the slaves' quarters on the property of Octagon Hall, located in Franklin. Octagon Hall is one of the most haunted properties in all of KY...it is noted that 40 ghosts are known to have been photographed there. I have been there twice and it is worth going there for the tour of the house. Admission used to be just 20 bucks.

While I did not get to see any ghosts personally, I did happen to photograph this shot of the slaves quarters showing an obvious large orb in the front door as well as a mist in the tree! It was not raining when I went there... if you are into spooky places, this place is a must to check out!"

Health note: Tech neck a growing problem

Beauty influencers have found their newest enemy -- and their newest cash cow. A recent Wall Street Journal report spotlighted the growing panic over "tech neck," the horizontal lines that form across the neck from constantly looking down at smartphones. But creased necks are just the opening act.

Influencers have swooped in with a parade of solutions: specialty neck creams, silicone masks, massage rollers, and futuristic LED red-light collars, turning a modern insecurity into a booming profit center.

CAIP Education Program: Hardship Proofing Your Farm

From Nick Roy
Adair County Cooperative Extension Service

Weather, volatile markets, and health events all pose threats to the family farm. Over the past year, we have witnessed many of our neighboring counties experience severe impacts from drought, flooding, and tornadoes. Farmers also face unpredictable markets and fluctuating input costs. In addition, the success of every family farm depends on the health and well-being of those who operate it. While we may not be able to predict or prevent every challenge, we can prepare our families and farms for the risks we know exist.

Join us for a one-hour overview and discussion on developing plans to help your farm navigate disasters, unfavorable market conditions, and unexpected health events. Having a plan in place can help your family farm endure whatever challenges arise and could make a difference in keeping the farm for future generations.

The program will be offered on the following dates at the Adair County Extension Office, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY:
  • September 15, 2026, at 5pmCT
  • September 16, 2026, at 10amCT
  • September 18, 2026, at NoonCT
*Recommended for CAIP Education Requirement* Participants only need to attend one session.

Independent voter registration surges in July

From Nick Storm

Frankfort, KY - Secretary of State Michael Adams announced this week that in July, 8,598 new Kentucky voters registered, with Kentuckians outside the two major political parties once again showing their interest in November's election.

"In July, more Independents registered to vote in Kentucky than Republicans and Democrats combined," Adams said. "Neither party can prevail in a statewide race with only its base; both must reach out to the center."
