 “I think first of all you have to take into consideration what Woodbury is. It is just a really beautiful place, and it attracted people as far back as seven or eight thousand years ago,” states local author and historian Roger Givens.
Givens explained that there is evidence of tenancy in Woodbury that experts believe dates back thousands of years. “We know they were attracted to the site in Woodbury because there is a huge mound of mussel shells on the river below the dam.”

We had a great time at the Beech Tree News/WLBQ 101.5 office on Halloween.  The Avengers aka Sierra Fields, Kayla Spurgeon, Holly Coleman and Mahkala Burden handed out candy to our trick-or-treaters.  Thank you so much girls, as always you did a great job.  We had to snap a few pictures of our visitors.  ENJOY!!!

Thankfully, I landed the last auditioning spot for The Fish Bowl. The show would be filmed at the Community Theater tomorrow. I had to arrive at 9:30 in the morning. I had less than 24 hours to perfect my product.
The show’s producer explained the judges would choose the top three inventions they predicted to succeed. If mine was chosen, they would invest in it. I had to ask Dad what that meant.
“It means the judges will give you a large sum of money to help you get the product off the ground,” Dad explained.

On October 14 and 15th, several Morgantown Elementary students experienced Kentucky history through a living history presentation at the 4th Annual Kentucky Folk Life Festival.  Students were able to personally view items from their history, listen to presentations, ask questions, and many times actually touch items from their past, therefore, enriching their future.
