From Lisa Jackson

Frankfort, KY - To celebrate National Hunting and Fishing Day, the Salato Wildlife Education Center will offer free admission from 8amCT to 2:30pmCT on Saturday, September 26, 2026.

In addition to the center's native wildlife exhibits, visitors can enjoy hunting and fishing demonstrations, hands-on activities for the whole family and the grounds of the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources headquarters campus.

"Hunters and anglers have long played a vital role in conserving Kentucky's wildlife and natural resources," said Jules Foster, program coordinator at the Salato Center. "This event is an opportunity to recognize that legacy while introducing a new generation to hunting and fishing and the many opportunities available in Kentucky."

The first 50 children ages 5-17 will receive a free fish poster. Guests can enjoy a hunting dog demonstration, a wildlife calling presentation led by Kentucky Fish and Wildlife staff, featuring a variety of calls, including elk, turkey and waterfowl. A squirrel processing demonstration will also highlight one of Kentucky's oldest small game traditions. Other activities will include kids' crafts, activity sheets, casting games and inflatable archery.

Phillip Coffey - Rhythm

By Phillip Coffey
Swirl off those unwelcoming, sad blues
Put on those soft leather dancing shoes.
Listen to the creatures - so small and some
Large as they welcome a new day of breath-taking cues.

The rhythm of all Gods creatures in harmony
With the melodies of seasons of tradition
Heard through millennia of our humble species
Sup up the levity - A lifetime of memories giving.

Narda Tate: A Matter of Perspective

By Narda Tate

Once upon a time, in a state that shall remain anonymous just in case the statute of limitations on stupidity has not expired, I was involved - no, I caused - what could have been a fatal incident on the roadway. Thankfully, we all survived. But let me explain. I want you to know the truth, not the truth as known by the other party.

Being raised in the southern part of Miami, Florida, I was exposed to a lot of bright, direct sunshine. This, in turn, gave me cataracts at a very young age. After my first surgery, I was delighted with being able to see again. However, after just a couple of years, the cataract in my other eye developed quite nicely and the lens tissue in the already corrected eye started growing back and was covering my vision again. It wasn't too long before I was too blind to see and voluntarily gave up driving until I could have more surgery.

The fateful day came when we arrived at church for a music rehearsal and the music was not with us. It was back home. It wasn't a very far distance from church to house and knowing that I shouldn't, I still volunteered to brave the driving world and retrieve the recalcitrant papers.

I only had to go down one road, cross 2 lanes of oncoming traffic, regroup in the median and cross 2 more lanes and I would be on our road and almost there. This much, I accomplished safely. It was the journey back that caused the problem!

No gentle breeze here

By Kathy Parker

While downtown Columbia received a gentle breeze and light rain Friday evening, the Holmes Bend area around Robertson Road received either ferocious straight line winds or a small tornado.

We were sitting on the porch during a good summer shower as the sun was setting when we heard a roar coming from the west. Normally I would have gone to the basement but it came so fast and furious I didn't have time to go down the outside back stairs. We thought the cabin was gone, with us in it.

When it finally slowed down at dark, this was left. We lost 2 giant trees, patio furniture strewn, and tree tops on neighbor's house. There was no warning and radar showed a light green space over our location. Rain gauge only showed .75 of an inch, but the torrential rain was all sideways. We are blessed we didn't have more damage. Johnny Vaughn said he has never seen or heard anything like it.

SKED/SBDC Partnership funds new playground equipment

From Cheryl Meadows
Southeast Kentucky Economic Development

Savannah Wisdom and Jessica Willis share a mutual passion for providing childcare that feels like a second home.

The business partners, related by marriage, have merged their passions and existing early childcare experience to invest in Graceful Beginnings Daycare. Their combined hands-on experience and licensing knowledge have given them the foundation needed to take on an existing daycare and make it their own.

"As a team, we are dedicated to creating a warm, supportive environment that feels like a second home for every child in our care," Willis said. "Our passion for early childhood development drives everything we do, and we look forward to growing alongside the families we serve."

Being onsite and actively working daily with the children in their care is important to the partners.

"We are blessed to be able to do this as it allows us to spend time with the kids and get to know each of them individually," added Wisdom. "I think our passion sets us apart. We love each of these kids as our own and have developed a personal relationship with both them and their families."

Lindsey Wilson University community celebrates the Constitution

By Duane Bonifer

On the 239th birthday of the U.S. Constitution, one of the secrets of the oldest government blueprint's longevity is its ability to be flexible.

That was one of the observations made by three Lindsey Wilson University professors during an afternoon roundtable discussion about the Constitution on Thursday, September 17, 2026, in the Thomas D. Clark Reading Room of the Katie A. Murrell Library.

The discussion about the Constitution was part of a day celebrating America's living document at Lindsey Wilson, which included a bell-ringing ceremony at the Alumni Victory Bell. The events were sponsored by the Lindsey Wilson History Club in partnership with the Jane Lampton Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution in Columbia.

Football: I'm Gonna Say It

By Ryan Hoots
Sports Director, UntdWeStnd.com

Lexington, KY - Okay, I was busting at the seam with the Week 1 Kool Aid and convinced myself Kentucky was beating Alabama in the sport of football. I was as wrong as wrong could be, lambasted for it on social media (deservedly so), and had to take it on the chin.

But, I did develop my first real on-field take of the Will Stein era.

Now, putting the nail in the coffin on Will Stein would be like getting fired on your first day. Only reserved for the worst of actions, of which losing to Alabama in football does not fall into that category. However, it doesn't mean that I am going to let Stein off without giving a few thoughts either.

And boy, do I have a thought.

Travel: Steam Train on the way


2026-09-19 - Elbe, WA - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com.
Robert writes, "While I was checking out the Church building in Elbe, and my back was turned away from this locomotive, the conductor decided to give a blast on the horn! I would have appreciated it if the conductor would have said, 'Hey Robert, I'm getting ready to lay on the horn...'

I'm pretty sure I left part of my life behind in Elbe that day. It wasn't just me that got a jolt, there was a little girl standing near the entrance that nearly jumped out of her skin."

Carol Perkins: When you need help

Previous Column: The St. Jude House

By Carol Perkins

When you need help, you can always find someone. It may take several stops and several people before finding the right one, but when you do find that person, he's a life-saver, so to speak.

When we went to South Carolina to visit Guy's sister, we stayed in a hotel six miles from her house. Her granddaughter led us to the site when we arrived to unpack, then we followed her to Carolyn's house, but we relied on our GPS to find our way back that night.

I was almost sure I remembered how to get there, but I missed my turn and decided I could take the next right. That didn't work out. We were on a busy four-lane highway headed to downtown Charlotte, NC, only ten miles from her house. I pulled off and plugged in the address. The problem began when the GPS didn't recognize the address. I tried to remember nearby places, but all I could recall was a Publix, and I didn't have an address. There are dozens in the area.

"Stop at a service station," Guy said, reverting to the days when service stations offered maps and directions.

More than 2,500 donors go All In for Lindsey Wilson University

By Duane Bonifer

In 48 hours, more than 2,500 alumni and friends were "all in" for Lindsey Wilson University as they combined to donate $874,211 for the 2026 fundraising campaign. That's an increase of more than $36,000 over the 2025 All In campaign, which raised $838,252, on September 15-16.

"I want to thank each and every person who took the time to be 'all in' for Lindsey Wilson, especially the students who participated in the process and the work by Vice President for Development Kevin Thompson and his incredible staff," said Lindsey Wilson President William T. Luckey Jr.

The theme of this year's All In campaign was "The Power of Us," and "us" certainly rallied to support the university's students. The money raised will be used to benefit numerous student needs, including academic programs and scholarship aid.

PCAK: Upstream Academy expanding Child Abuse Prevention

From Janna Estep-Jordan

Lexington, KY - Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky (PCAK) is continuing its work to build a statewide network of child abuse prevention advocates through Phase Two of Upstream Academy, supported by $500,000 in funding from Kentucky's 2026 legislative session.

The investment supports PCAK's continued efforts to advance prevention across the Commonwealth, while expanding access to the training and resources communities need to support children and families. Building on the $500,000 in state funding that supported Upstream Academy's first phase, the additional investment will help PCAK expand the program to even more Kentuckians and strengthen communities' ability to address challenges before they become crises.

Former PCAK Executive Director Jill Seyfred gave an update on Upstream Academy to the Kentucky Interim Joint Committee on Families and Children.

"Upstream Academy Phase Two is where we take the momentum we have built and turn it into even greater action across Kentucky," said Seyfred. "We focus on the power of one, and we have seen what happens when advocates are given the confidence and knowledge to step up for children in their own communities across more than half of Kentucky's counties, and we are excited to see how that ripple effect continues to grow across all counties."
