Application deadline for 4-H camp extended By Tony Rose, Extension Agent for Youth The Adair County 4-H program is still taking applications for 4-H Summer camp on May 30-June 3, 2011. March 1 was the deadline but because of the bad weather the past couple months, we are extending the deadline. We will take applications until the camp fills up. At this time one girls' cabin and one boys' cabin are full. The second boys and girls cabin are starting to fill up. Once these cabins fill up we will no longer accept applications. Due to the number of boys interested we were able to add a second boys cabin. Applications can be picked up at the Adair County Cooperative Extension Service, 409 Fairground ST, Columbia, KY. Applications were also passed out at all the local schools. Feel free to contact us at (270) 384-2317 if you have any questions. 2011-03-03 18:44:08 | Comments | Printable version

Commends Adair County-Bonner recycling partnership Vonnie Kolbenschlag writes: I am very pleased that the students at LWC are enabled with the recycling containers and hopefully perhaps encouraged to recycle items that otherwise go in landfill. Recycling keeps items out of limited landfill space and saves energy and water when producing new products from recycled items rather than making new products from raw materials, a more costly production.Comments above re article 42802.

Internet mapping problem causes major problems on Garrett ST Shellie Elmore writes: We live at the end of Garrett Street, and the traffic is unbelievable! We moved here thinking that it would be safer for children to play because it is a dead end street. There is a constant turn around in our drive and our son is not allowed to be in the front yard or ride his bike in our driveway unless we are outside. When there are activities at the school at night and we are outside, we average giving directions to 5-7 people who are lost because of Internet mapping issues. Hats off to Judge Melton, Mayor Harris, Adair County 911, and anyone else who is willing to help make our children safe and our neighborhoods more peaceful! -Shellie ElmoreComments re article 42791.
