Milestones

The Plum Point Young at Heart group recently took a trip together and several residents went along.

The group traveled to Lexington, Va., on Monday, July 16. The group headed to Fredericksburg, Va., on Tuesday, July 17, to board a touring bus and head to Washington, D.C.

The afternoon was spent visiting Arlington National Cemetery and stopping at the Kennedy grave sites, then observing the Changing of the Guard.

The group then drove by the Iwo Jima memorial and observed the optical illusion of the flag being raised.

Rebecca Lauren Rice of Mount Sterling and Lukas Randolph Lawless of Campbellsville announce their engagement.

She is a 2007 graduate of Campbellsville University with a Bachelor of Science degree in marketing and a minor in psychology. She is pursuing a Master of Arts in teaching elementary education at the University of the Cumberlands.

Lawless is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Randy Lawless.

Campbellsville High School Class of 1948 hosted a reunion on July 21 at Phillips Lanes Bowling Alley.

Campbellsville native Max Heath was honored Friday in Richmond as a recipient of the Al Smith Award.

The award is presented to recognize careers of public service through community journalism, by a current or former Kentuckian, with preference given to those outside metropolitan areas.

Heath addressed the crowd with both humility and humor as he received the award.
