Four honored at LWC's 92nd Homecoming Celebration By Venus M. Popplewell "I'm not calling you out, I'm calling you up." That was the message former Adair County EMT, Dr. Hannah Hayduk '15 Morales delivered during her acceptance speech Saturday at the College's 92nd-annual National Alumni Association Homecoming Awards Celebration and Luncheon. "I'd like to remind the young people here that you do not need to wait for recognition to act as a leader," said Morales, a resident physician at the Texas Institute for Graduate Medical Education's Laredo Family Medicine Program in Laredo, Texas. "You shouldn't need a title to instill and utilize the qualities to build rapport and gain respect. A big part of that is also self-accountability. But if someone is holding you accountable it is because they know you are capable of more." Morales, from Laredo, Texas, received the Outstanding Young Alumna award from the LWC National Alumni Association at the homecoming awards banquet on Saturday morning. Also receiving alumni awards were: Bill Straus '69 from Lexington, Kentucky, who received the Distinguished Alumnus award; Charity Ferguson '01 from Greensburg, Kentucky, who received the Distinguished Service award; and Dr. Jerry Westerfield from Russell Springs, Kentucky, who received the Honorary Alumnus award. Other homecoming activities included the Homecoming Kickoff: Fireworks and Pep Rally; the 7th Annual Faculty and Staff Reunion and Picnic; the 19th Annual Annual Morris Shepherd Pingpong Tournament; the 2nd Annual Brady C. Button Memorial Golf Scramble; the Alumni Tailgate Zone sponsored by 93.5 WAIN; and the naming ceremony for the Dr. Scott Dillery Fall Frenzy Swimming Invitational.

Appreciation for State and County Road Departments Note: Click headline for article with photos. By Leslie Smith Our state and county road departments probably don't receive as many compliments as they deserve. I'd like to express my gratitude for two things I've witnessed recently. Within the last few weeks, the Adair County sign has been restored to its rightful place on Highway 55 South near Dollar General. I AM MORE THAN PLEASED to have the Adair County sign back in place. It had been down and gone for quite some time. It welcomes me back to Adair County and I smile each time I see it. Last week a road tile was replaced on Rudy Lane which is a county road. A call to Magistrate Reeder resulted in a work order being placed. Last Wednesday morning the crew of Cowan, Denton, Smith, and Williams were in front of my house to replace an old concrete tile with a poly tile. Drainage through the old tile had become almost impossible. Adair County is not perfect, never has been, never will be. But to borrow and paraphrase a line, "I'm proud to be an Adair Countian". To call Adair County my home brings me great joy! As my brother said, "A shout out to the people." Thanks road departments! You have made this Adair Countian very happy! 2023-10-04 09:32:19 | Comments | Printable version
