Use any Contact/Submit button to send.)The menu will feature foods which fellow Illinoisan Abraham Lincoln loved.

Adair Fiscal Court Agenda for Tuesday, Jan. 13, 2009 The Adair County Fiscal Court meets Tuesday, Jan. 13 in its regular monthly meeting. A number of important items are scheduled for deliberation, including appointment of Fiscal Court Committees and Chairmanships, approval for hiring at the Adair County Regional Jail and Green River Animal Shelter, approval of new speed limits, and appointment of Columbia/Adair County Water Commission board members. In addition to many other items on the 28-item agenda, County School Superintendent Darrell Treece will speak to the court early in the session. The public is invited and encouraged to attend. For some reason, recent meetings have have been having lower attendance, reversing a trend seen early in the administration. Fiscal Court meetings are covered by Adair County media, but we at ColumbiaMagazine.com encourage in person attendance, which gives one a much better sense of what happens and provides much better citizen feedback to the court than by getting media reports. Citizens are given the opportunities to address Fiscal Court. The meeting room is one of the best venues for public meetings in Adair County. Judge Melton also invites members of other boards, councils, and commissions to attend Fiscal Court meetings. -ED WAGGENER 2009-01-10 09:24:10 | Comments | Printable version

I have seen first hand the destruction that alcohol brings--all of us have! It doesn't matter that its with a meal or at a gambling boat, or even at home.

ACHD sends Information Sheet on Pertussis/whooping cough Two cases reported in Adair County School District From Adair County Health Department Whooping cough, or Pertussis, is back! Not just in distant communities, but also here in the Lake Cumberland area and it is affecting many individuals. Whooping cough is a bacterial disease, which initially produces cold-like symptoms, fever is absent or minimal, followed by a cough, which in adults can last for 100 days. Attacks of coughing can be so severe that patients produce a "whoop" and may vomit or even break ribs. Unfortunately the immunity from DTaP vaccine, which adolescents and adults received as children, has waned and these age groups are now susceptible.
