  • Bigotry only hurts

     While reading on E. C. Lee’s opinion letter in the July 18, 2012 edition of  The Pioneer News, it came to my attention that there is some confusion on who makes up this so mentioned “devil’s crowd.”

  • Thanks for caring kids

     Sadie and I want to thank these two wonderful children, Tony Bayton (age 8), and Savannah Bayton, (age 5) who attend Pleasant Grove Elementary School.  They had a part in helping Sadie be a good listener, as well as Sadie helping Tony and Savannah want to read more.

    As Sadie and I would walk up to their house, we could hear them say in an excited voice -  “Reading time”!

     This letter is in response to the editorial that was in The Pioneer News on Monday, June 11, 2012. I am not writing about the budget in general, but I do question Judge Roberts need for a Financial Officer for Fiscal Court.

  • Sad to leave business

     I write this with great sadness.  I entered into medicine after my career as an Air Force pilot ended abruptly when I became ill.

    Once my cancer was in remission, I attended the University Of Louisville School Of Medicine, where I also completed my internship and residency in ophthalmology.  I was motivated to use my skills to continue to make as great a difference as possible in the lives of others.

  • Thanks to Tech Center

     I want to thank the Bullitt County Technical Center’s welding instructor, Scott Metcalf, for his help with an election sign clamp that he made for the Bullitt County Board of Elections. He was more than willing to help and his talent and skill showed in the finished product. He is an asset to the Tech Center and the welding program and I want it to be known to all of the citizens of Bullitt County.

  • Take down yard sale signs

     Now that summer is here in full force, yard sales are being held every weekend and the signs are going up everywhere to lead people to them. If you put up a yard sale sign, please go back and take it down after the sale. They create trash and are unnecessary. Your neighbors will thank you.

     At the May 15th Fiscal Court meeting magistrates Laswell and Bradshaw voted against the appointment of Glen Fleming to the Bullitt County Sanitation District board. When asked to state a reason for their disapproval they said they thought the position should be filled by someone from the north end of the county. But as recently as February 7th they voted for the appointment of D. Hatcher, who is from the south end of the county and who’s position Mr. Fleming would be filling. Since Mr. Hatcher quit during the first meeting.
