Daily News for Tuesday, October 27, 2026
Words of Wisdom for October 27, 2026 From Miss Donna Rieder Hard seasons grow the strongest roots, even when nothing is visible above the ground. The tree that survives the storm is the one that grew deep before it grew tall. Do not envy fast growth, it usually has shallow roots. Your depth is your advantage. Donna Rieder's Clifty Creek Farm is located at 3190 White Oak Church Rd, Russell Springs, KY (visitors by appointment only). You can reach Donna by email at cliftycreekkikos@aol.com. 2026-10-27 16:30:42 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Today

Along the way, we stopped for a tour of the Kentucky Derby Museum. During the convention, students were able to meet with colleges and agricultural related businesses from across the country. Adair county FFA was even recognized on the national stage for our three star rating! Each year, the National FFA Organization recognizes high-quality programs across the country with their chapter rating contest. The contest looks at 15 of the chapter's activities throughout the year, and evaluates the overall impact of the chapter in their community and school. This year, Adair County FFA earned a gold rating at the state level, and was selected as one of the top 19 chapters in Kentucky. After advancing to the national level, Adair County FFA received a three-star rating, which is the highest rating possible. This places Adair County FFA in the top 4% of chapters in the country!

LWU Theatre Department to present The Secret Garden By Duane Bonifer Lindsey Wilson University student Sophie Willen '30 said she was introduced to the classic children's story "The Secret Garden" when she was "8 or 9 years old." Willen's mother read it to her that first time, but by the time she had reached 14 years old, she had read it several times on her own. "I really love the story," said Willen, a communication major from Lexington. Now Willen has a chance to bring one of her favorite stories to the stage when the Lindsey Wilson Theatre Department will present the musical adaptation of "The Secret Garden" to the public from November 12-15, 2026, in V.P. Henry Auditorium. It will also be presented several times to area schools during the week of November 9, 2026, as part of the program's outreach to the region's schools.
