  • Mother thankful for childcare

    I think when you find a blessing in life, it is important to share your blessing.

    Eighteen months ago, my family welcomed the addition of our son. I am sure every working mother can relate to the joy of such an arrival. She can equally relate to the stress and worry encountered when maternity leave ends and one must return to the daily grind. Thankfully, God directed my path to the staff of A Child's Workplace.

  • Reader says magistrates should be ashamed

    Shame on magistrates Tommy Corbin and Matt Pendleton for not supporting coroner Terry Dabney's request for a third paid deputy coroner.

    My husband, the late James C. "Jack" Bryant, was a deputy coroner. I remember many times the telephone ringing in the middle of the night and the deputy coroner was needed.

  • The Caring Place requests support

    May we have 20 seconds of your time? This is all it will take to read this letter.

    Twenty years ago, on Nov. 22, 1993, The Caring Place opened its doors to its first family, a family that had escaped an abusive situation in their own home.

    Since then, we have been able to accommodate, educate and assist more than 6,000 families. This has been a welcoming refuge for the women and children in distress.

  • Reader says heroes serve community

    Heroes do walk among us. They don't have to wear capes or mask or crazy costumes. The reason I write this is because I know one. His name is Rick. He is the constable that works at the Campbellsville Middle School. 

    On any given day, he directs the parent pick-up parking lines. He smiles and greets each person as they pull up, often making small talk. If you miss a day, he remembers and makes sure you are OK the next time you come to pick up your child. He is always so nice and friendly.

  • Anti-drug coalition needs community support

    The Campbellsville/Taylor County Anti-Drug Coalition has been educating our children for the past 17 years. The Coalition has been financed through state and U.S. Government grants. The majority of those grant funds have either been eliminated or have become increasingly more competitive, thus future funding is questionable for the immediate future.

    The grant applications indicated that local funds would continue funding the Coalition when federal funds were no longer available. The time has come when local organizations should step forward and fund the Coalition.
