Photos from Barnetts Creek Church, 1959 Billy Joe Hagy writes: Some historical pictures around Columbia/Adair County were passed along to me from the two daughters of Reverand Harry T. Sinks and his dear wife Harriet Barclay Sinks. Harry was our preacher up on Barnetts Creek near the Pellyton community of Adair county. Harry and Harriet's daughters are Susan (Sinks) Barber and Lolly (Sinks) Bolin. They should be given credit if you choose to publish any of these pictures on Columbia Magazine. I hope you will see the value of sharing these great pictures so that others from Adair can also enjoy them. Decedents of some of these houses' families may actually love to have their ancestors print of the homes. Note: Special thanks to Valerie Adams for helping get these photos to Columbia Magazine. 2026-10-30 10:34:01 | Comments | Printable version

Lindsey Wilson hosts inaugural Farmer Appreciation Luncheon By Duane Bonifer Lindsey Wilson University and area agriculture leaders celebrated the beginning of a beautiful friendship at the inaugural LWU Farmer Appreciation Luncheon, held on Thursday, October 29, 2026. More than 100 area agriculture leaders joined university and high school students and educators at the university's Roberta D. Cranmer Dining & Conference Center to underscore the critical role agriculture plays in Southcentral Kentucky's economy. "This luncheon is about recognizing you," Lindsey Wilson Agribusiness Program Director Paisley Bolin '26 told the guests. "Agriculture plays such an important role in our communities and our everyday lives, and the people who work in this industry deserve to know how much they are appreciated." Lindsey Wilson launched a bachelor of arts degree in agribusiness this school year, and a key element of the new academic program is that it is deeply rooted in the region. "Agriculture isn't just part of our heritage here in Kentucky -- it's part of who we are, and it defines us," said Lindsey Wilson School of Business and Communication Dean Benson Sexton '04.

Football: Indians host Eagles in final home game By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer On Friday, the Adair County Indians Varsity Football team gets back on the field to close out the 2026 football season. The Tribe will host the Campbellsville Eagles (3-6) who come off a 42-0 loss to Kentucky Country Day last week on the road. The Eagles are in a multi-game losing skid going back to September. Campbellsville has struggled turning the ball over this season. Eagles QB Bryson Underwood has tossed some 11 interceptions this year and just five touchdowns. The Campbellsville rushing attack has also struggled to score with just five rushing touchdowns on the season making just 10 total offensive touchdowns on the whole season for Campbellsville. This is compared to 31 offensive touchdowns for the Tribe on the year. If the Indians can score, they can likely end the season on a positive note and get a win in this one. Come out and support the Tribe at 7pmCT on Friday, October 30, 2026, at ACHS Indian Field, 526 Indian Drive, Columbia, KY. 2026-10-30 09:48:09 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Sports
