Life must be good for Wild Turkeys living in Dale Hollow State Park. They are big. Don't have and data-driven stats to verify they are bigger, other than Billy Joe Fudge telemetrics - usually reserved for getting the exact poundage of a road crossing wildcat/cougar, from a moving car, at that - just say these turkeys are big, fat and sassy. There are six safely grazing here - maybe only five if the one lookout on the right is omitted. Which raises a question for one not well versed in turkey societal matters: Is there generally one turkey resource officer which acts as a lookout? -- EW. Photo Saturday, May 19, 2018.

In the Superintendent's Comments at the May School Board meeting, Dr. Pamela Stephens asked representatives of all three volunteer fire departments, Breeding Fire Department, Knifley Fire Department and Columbia Adair County Fire Department, to come to the front for recognition. She said, "for years and years, these men and women have worked so diligently on the Crusade for Children endeavors and have brought so much back to Adair County -- over $1 million to the school system -- so the board challenged each school to give to your efforts for the crusade as well. The schools have provided, with money collected at each, ACMS, ACPC, ACES, ACHS, bus drivers, mechanics, and the Central office, a grand total of $2,618.00. She said they hope to double that amount next year. From left in photo Nathan Petty and Terry Harvey, Breeding Volunteer Fire Department; C. R.
