The Butler County Cooperative Extension Service has recently purchased property on Gardner Camp Road near Highway 231.  An Extension Education Center will eventually be built on this property.
We are seeking input from all members of our community on what the new Education Center should look like, what functions it should serve, what type and size meeting rooms, labs, classrooms, kitchens, and other space that should be included to serve this community.

It has been almost eleven years since I came to work in Morgantown with Gipe Automotive. I originally came here with the intention of transferring closer to home as soon as something became available. Little did I know that you would take me in as one of your own. I would like to thank everyone for making the last ten plus years such a wonderful experience for me.

Butler County has nine Historical Markers placed throughout the county that provide on-the-spot history lessons.  The markers add drama and interest to the countryside for native Kentuckians as well as tourists. Through this program, the wealth of Kentucky history is made accessible to the public as they travel along the state's roadways.
The Kentucky Historical Marker Program, administered by the Kentucky Historical Society in cooperation with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, commemorates historical sites, events, and personalities throughout the commonwealth.
