LWU Fall Chapel schedule focuses on callings

By Duane Bonifer

Lindsey Wilson University Chaplain the Rev. Tyler Brumfield hopes that everyone will take advantage of the fall semester chapel schedule, which gives individuals a weekly opportunity to reflect, relax and recharge.

"Chapel reminds you that you are a human being before a human doing," said Brumfield.

Beginning September 2, 2026, weekly chapel will be held 11 times this semester, concluding with "Songs and Scriptures of Christmas" on December 2.

With the exception of Church-University Celebration Day on September 23, weekly chapel will be held at 10:45amCT on Wednesday in the historic John B. Begley Chapel.

But as Brumfield points out, the Begley Chapel "is more than a landmark."

"It's a living chapel," he said.

Lindsey Wilson's weekly chapel service is open to the general public as well as to the campus community.

Dolly Parton became known as the book lady to many


2026-08-26 - Photo Shared by Adair County Public Library.
The Dolly Parton Imagination Library was created in honor of her father who couldn't read. Because of this gift, hundreds of thousands of children around the world get books given to them. The gifts are given along with the reminder that kindness is a powerful force, it's ok to dream big, and there is always room for one more book.

Dolly Partin missed especially by our libraries

From the Adair County Public Library

We are so sad to hear about the passing of Dolly Parton. As a library, we are very grateful for the beautiful impact she made on the world of literacy.

There are so many Adair County children that receive free books monthly thanks to the Dolly Parton Imagination Library and those books help these kids lay the stepping stones for a love of reading! Thank you, Dolly, for reminding us that kindness is a powerful force, it's ok to dream big, and there is always room for one more book.

Travel: there's no place on earth like Iceland

By April Shepperd

Iceland does not captivate with magnificent cities or countless tourist attractions. It offers something much more powerful - a profound glimpse of the powers of nature and how small humans are in its midst. Everyday reveals a different aspect of nature: endless lava fields, majestic glaciers, black sand beaches, waterfalls plunging into the depths with incredible force, geothermal areas where the earth literally breathes, hot springs that burst from the mountains or seep out of fields creating pools of warm, mineral respite.

Each day new land is born with the eruption of volcanoes, and each day area is lost with the calving of icebergs and the crashing of evolving seas. It's a reminder of just how small we truly are, and how magnificent nature truly is. Iceland does not demand attention. It commands it by simply being.

Phillip Coffey: The coolest administrator, Joe Janes

Long ago while wrestling with not having a clue at all, a Principal of Sparksville come into our school leadership. His name was Joe Janes. Our seventh Grade teacher Ms. Sally Akin was much troubled by what she had just seen.

All of the saints would have surely turned over if they had witnessed what was going on. A couple of boys with their artistic descriptions had drawn something unacceptable in the mid sixties for too long.

EDA: Spec Building takes another step forward at GRCP

By Mig Feuser, from The Adair Progress

The Adair County Economic Development Authority is moving closer to construction of a new speculative industrial building while holding off on a major marketing investment until it has more to offer prospective industries.

During the August EDA meeting, held August 19, 2026, Chairman Larry Walker updated board members on the $1.65 million in state funding approved for the speculative building planned at the Green River Commerce Park.

The project remains in the paperwork and design stage, but Walker stressed that it is moving forward and that earlier concerns about an approaching deadline have been resolved.

Sculpting Memories: Waltz looks to the past for inspiration

By Mig Feuser, from The Adair Progress

The Adair County Arts Council found an appropriate setting for its monthly meeting on August 13, 2026 -- surrounded by the work of an artist who has spent most of his life creating.

The council met at the Adair County studios of longtime artist and sculptor David Waltz, giving members an opportunity not only to conduct their regular business but also to see what Waltz has been working on since the group last visited with him.

At 80, Waltz is not slowing down creatively. If anything, his newest work is becoming more personal.

Football: Indians post a balanced win at Russell Co.

By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer

On Friday, August 21, 2026, the Adair County Indians Football team opened up the 2026 season with a 37-13 rolling win over rival Russell County on the road.

The Tribe left no doubt which team was more ready to play, as they recovered a muffed opening kickoff which led to quick 7-0 lead for the Indians. It was a lead they would never surrender, as they rolled the Lakers for 399 yards of total offense, relatively balanced between passing and rushing.

Braxton McKinney would post all of Adair County's 195 passing yards on the night, going 16/26 for 195 yards and with a touchdown and an interception. McKinney completed those passes to five different Indians, with Madden Moye leading the way with four receptions for 64 yards and a touchdown. Callum Darnell lead the rushing for Adair County, carrying the ball 15 times for 175 yards and two touchdowns.

On the defensive side of the field, Tristan Mullins was the team's leading tackler, putting up 12 tackles, followed by Darnell with nine. Brody Karnes had the team's third most tackles, most notably in the Lakers backfield, where he posted a team-leading 1.5 sacks. The defensive highlight of the night was Callum Darnell, who posted a 100-yard pick six that fully diminished any momentum left in the Laker's tank.

One last important item to be highlighted from the Tribe's big win was very good special teams play from Adair County. Kicker/Punter Matthew MeJean was 1/1 on field goal attempts and was 4/5 on extra point attempts, also posting one punt for 32 yards.

Rinse and Return pesticide recycling program is Aug 31

From Nick Roy
Adair County Extension Agent for Agriculture & Natural Resources

The 2026 Rinse and Return pesticide recycling program will be held from 10amCT to NoonCT on Monday, August 31, 2026, at the Adair County Cooperative Extension Service, 409 Fairground St., Columbia, KY.

Farmers, gardeners, and homeowners are encouraged to dispose of their empty pesticide containers during this time. Empty pesticide containers should be triple rinsed, booklets and lids removed, and punctured.

Due to the materials previously held by these pesticide containers they cannot be recycled with your ordinary household plastics. This program allows for the proper recycling of these pesticide containers. This reduces the amount of material entering the landfill or being disposed of by other means. Some of the end products include drainage pipe, highway sign posts, underground utility conduit, and wire/cable spool flanges.
