New Livestock Events Center located adjoining the new Extension Office completed and community ribbon cutting held in September. Some one hundred+ folks attended the morning breakfast program. Facility has been used not only for loading out cattle for the beef retained ownership program, but also used by CEC for quarterly meeting, Farm Credit Ag Advisory Committee, Kentucky Junior Cattlemen's Association Board, 4H Grooming Clinic, 4H and FFA Livestock Steer Validation.
