Carol Perkins: Mama's preacher

Previous Column: Fluffy and the Pill

By Carol Perkins

On the Fourth of July this year, Skypac in Bowling Green hosted a free concert. I've written about how wonderful it was, but what I didn't write about was what happened beforehand.

As we gathered in the lobby, talking to old friends who enjoy attending the way we do, I saw a small crowd gathering around what must be, I concluded, a famous person. I can spot a celebrity like a hunter spots a deer.

I eased toward the crowd and soon recognized the person they'd circled. He wasn't a celebrity as in Hugh Jackman, but he was a local person of obvious influence; a man who influenced me and, over the years, my mother, too. I edged closer. I had something I needed to say.

Those shaking his hand were smiling as if they had touched a close relative they hadn't seen in years and adored. I understood. He had an air of calm approachability.

I made my move and reached for his outstretched hand. "You don't know me, but I know you."

TAP grant will be used for sidewalks around schools campus

See also: Columbia awarded $1.4M TAP grant for sidewalks

From Trey Stephens
Assistant to the Mayor | City of Columbia

The City of Columbia is extremely excited to announce that we are a recipient of the 2026 Transportation Alternative Program Grant. This program provides funding for non-motorized transportation projects for communities across the nation.

The City of Columbia will be receiving almost $1.4 million in funding for a sidewalk extension and improvement project in the vicinity of the Adair County Schools Campus. The sidewalk will go down Greensburg Street to the school's furthest entrance, down Walker Street, and back up Hudson Street.

The grant also includes repair of a section of sidewalk directly in front of the United States Post Office along Burkesville Street.

"The City of Columbia is excited about this project and the opportunity to improve connectivity in our community. This project continues a priority of mine to improve Columbia's pedestrian infrastructure and pedestrian safety, to ensure that mobility is available to everyone across our great City in a safe and accessible way," said Mayor Hoots. "Special thanks go out to the Lake Cumberland Area Development District, the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and Governor Andy Beshear who contributed greatly in the receiving of this grant," added Mayor Hoots.

After all funding is received, the City will be responsible for less than $10,000 of the total project. Further details on the time frame of the project will be available in the near future.

Football: Indians vs Casey Co. preview

By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer

The Adair County Indians Varsity Football team will be back in action at 7:30pmCT on Friday, September 4, 2026 as they host the (0-2) Casey County Rebels at home on ACHS Indian Field, 526 Indian Drive, Columbia, KY. The Indians come off a 14-6 win on the road against Metcalfe County last week, while Casey County comes off a 22-36 loss to McCreary Central at home last week.

The Rebels found some offensive success both passing and rushing against McCreary Central, but mostly through the air, with QB Owen Willoughby finding the endzone three times. Two of those were to receiver Ethan Strong, who cut up the McCreary Central defense for 123 receiving yards. With that in mind, pressuring Willoughby and keeping Strong covered will be a high priority for the Tribe defense on tonight. Strong will also need to be watched on the defensive side of the ball - he posted two interceptions last week, Casey County's only takeaways.

Adair County has won just three of their last 10 matchups with Casey County, but two of the last three. They will seek to keep that recent success going as they open up the home campaign of the 2026 season. Tickets to the game are $8 each, and can be purchased online at hometownticketing.com.

Lessons Learned on the Diamond

Lindsey Wilson University President William T. Luckey Jr., Adair County Athletic Director Tyler Maskill '21 reflect on how playing baseball helped shape their careers outside the lines.

By Duane Bonifer

If wins and losses -- and championships -- stick with a student-athlete for life, so do the life lessons they learn through competition.

That was one of the messages two former college baseball players told a room full of Lindsey Wilson University students and guests on Thursday, September 3, 2026, at the Roberta D. Cranmer Dining Center.

At the inaugural "Lunch & Learn," sponsored by the university's sport performance program, Lindsey Wilson President William T. Luckey Jr. and Adair County School District Athletic Director Tyler Maskill '21 discussed how they have applied some of the lessons they absorbed as college baseball players to their present jobs.

Courtney Murray Carter, who is coordinator of the sport performance program and professor of sport management, served as the event's moderator. A new major this fall at Lindsey Wilson, sport performance is an emerging academic discipline that transforms the athletic experience into a rigorous form of academic study by giving student-athletes a way to turn competition into deeper learning.

The purpose of "Lunch & Learn" is to focus on how skills developed in the experience of playing sports can transfer to careers beyond the competition.

Columbia awarded $1.4M TAP grant for sidewalks

From Naitore Djigbenou/Allen Blair

Frankfort, KY - Gov. Andy Beshear has announced more than $18.8 million in grant funding for 18 transportation projects across the commonwealth that will improve safety and accessibility for Kentuckians. From walking to biking, wheelchairs and more, Team Kentucky is committed to making our commonwealth more accessible for everyone.

The city of Columbia was awarded nearly $1.4 million for a sidewalk improvement and expansion project as part of the Safe Routes to School program. That project will create a safe, continuous and accessible pedestrian route from downtown to the Adair County school complex, where nearly 200 students regularly walk to class.

"We are so excited to be a recipient of a TAP grant," said Columbia Mayor Pam Hoots. "This will bring sidewalk connectivity to our school complex. Thank you for caring about Columbia and Adair County.

"Transportation isn't just about the work we are doing to improve roads and bridges across our state; it's about creating communities that support every Kentuckian and their needs," said Gov. Beshear. "These projects will help give peace of mind to parents knowing their kids can walk safely to school, while improving access to local businesses and more."

Letter: Freezing thermometer

Rickie Williams writes:
I am including a screen shot so you can see the date/time of the photo as well as why I am writing. It seems that the thermometer must have "frozen"...and at 90+ degrees that is one real freak of nature !
Rickie, Thanks for writing. We did incorrectly show 32F today, but it was the result of upgrades at the Kentucky Mesonet web site, which is worth a look -- they've added a ton of new visualizations and features this year. Adair County's station seems to be back online now and reporting the temp, and it's a far, far cry from 32F this afternoon!
