Homeplace on Green River gets a funding boost Campbellsville, KY - Representative Pollock, Homeplace Leadership and local stakeholders joined executives from NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, this week, as they presented the Homeplace on Green River Program Director Lyn Stanton and the HGR Board with a check to help increase their outreach and mission. Their $5,000 contribution makes NextEra Energy Homeplace on Green River's newest Elite Heritage Level Corporate Member. Stanton shared the historical significance of the 200-year-old farm and how this local jewel came to be--from a 200-year-old family farm to being stewarded by the non-profit organization Homeplace on Green River. "We are excited to receive this support. This additional funding will help us accelerate our programs and outreach," said Stanton. HGR Board President Billy Joe Fudge spoke at the presentation on the importance of relationships and cooperation. Further, Mr. Fudge spoke of the disconnection between our country's youth and the natural world, and how Homeplace was created to help bridge that gap through programming for all ages.

Letter: Remembering Ronnie Brandenburg Billy Joe Fudge writes: For about 15 years I was a trainer in Wildland Fire Suppression for the Kentucky Division of Forestry.

Downtown Days Committee volunteers honored By Ellen Zornes The 2024 Columbia Adair Chamber of Commerce Volunteer of the Year is the Downtown Days Committee. Our Volunteer of the Year has accomplished so much that just a single person couldn't do it all - it takes a whole committee - the Downtown Days Committee. This group of hard-working ladies came about because several years ago some people were looking at some old photos of the Green Pepper Festival. So you know this group are no spring chickens if they remember that Festival. But they decided Columbia and Adair County needed to have a festival that would bring attention to our downtown area. And thus, in 2003 the Downtown Days Committee was born. They didn't even have a place to hold their meetings so they met in a member's house.
