Speaker 1: We now turn to the Springfield Sun to bring the
0:03
news from in and around Washington County. The reader today
0:07
is Amy Jones Timmony. We begin with the addition dated Wednesday,
0:11
March nineteenth, twenty twenty five. As a reminder, Lady Eli
0:16
is a reading service intended for people who are blind
0:19
or have other disabilities that make it difficult to read
0:22
printed material. Local fire departments receive improved ISSO ratings by
0:29
Jane Reid Cline March nineteenth, twenty twenty five. One of
0:34
the many factors to determine the cost of homeowner and
0:37
renter insurance is the local fire department's Insurance Services Office
0:42
or ISSO rating. Local residents are sure to be pleased
0:47
with the ratings recently reported. Washington County, is Springfield, and
0:51
Willisburg fire departments are evaluated in the fall of twenty
0:55
twenty four and receive their scores in the early March.
0:59
Macville Fired Afy apartment will be evaluated later this spring.
1:03
Valuations are conducted every five years. In twenty twenty, Washington County, Springfield,
1:08
and Willisburg were all given an ISO rating of five
1:11
on a scale of one to ten, with one being
1:14
the best and ten, the worst in the most recent evaluations.
1:18
Washington County Fire Department remains study with a rating of five.
1:22
Springfield and Willisburg fire departments each improved to an ISO
1:26
rating of four. Fire Chiefs Mike Mullahan, Forest Curricio, and
1:31
Jesse Carting are working to continue to improve those scores
1:35
even more. Mullahan said one of the key factors that
1:39
is hurting the Washington County Fire departments score is response
1:43
time to remote areas of the county. He said adding
1:46
a substation in the East Texas area would help tremendously. Currently,
1:51
the Washington County Fire Department has one substation in Fredericktown
1:55
to better serve the western portion of the county. Mullahan
1:59
said having one in the eastern part of the county
2:01
is a high priority. He said the department is raising
2:05
funds and applying for grants in hopes of constructing a
2:08
substation in the near future. Should the substation be completed
2:12
before the next evaluation in twenty twenty nine, thirty, Washington
2:17
County will receive a new evaluation upon completion of the project.
2:22
Another concern is the incoming distillery. While the county's ladder
2:26
truck is more than adequate for other structures in the
2:29
city and county. It is not sufficient for the taller
2:32
rick houses being constructed just outside of Springfield. Mullahan and
2:36
Curricio brought this concern to the Springfield City Council in
2:40
the fall, requesting permission to pursue a grant for the
2:43
purchase of a bigger ladder truck. Curricuo and Mullahan have
2:47
applied for two grants for the purchase of trucks, one
2:50
for the ladder truck and one for an engine. Willisburg
2:54
purchased a new tanker engine combo in December of twenty
2:57
twenty four. Quote, we are all looking for grants, mulahan said.
3:02
The departments recently received a three thousand dollars state training
3:06
grant and have applied for a grant to purchase air
3:09
tanks in all the departments. But it takes more than
3:11
equipment to keep the departments functioning efficiently. Quote. Communication is key,
3:17
said Carney. Our dispatchers do a great job. The chief said.
3:21
The new dispatch radio system has helped tremendously as they
3:25
no longer need to switch their radios as they moved
3:27
from one tower to another. Previously, there were sixteen channels,
3:31
and the chiefs said they were all whole. Additionally, they
3:34
had to switch channels frequently to communicate with the new system.
3:39
There is just one channel that efficiently handles all radio communication,
3:43
since all dispatch and communication is done through the Washington
3:46
County nine to one to one dispatch center. All departments
3:50
received the same score on that subsection of the ISO evaluation,
3:56
or I should say they received the same score. The
4:00
communications scored nine point twenty five of a possible ten
4:03
and near perfect score. Quote. The Sheriff's office does a
4:07
great job getting there and letting us know what we
4:10
have end of quote, Malahan said. The chiefs said. Another
4:14
great act that they have is a mutual aid agreement.
4:17
The four departments work together assisting each other for the
4:20
benefit of all. The three fire chiefs that another concern
4:24
highlighted in the evaluations is the need for more volunteers
4:28
at all the departments. Recently, the fire departments began paying
4:32
firefighters for each run. Quote it's not a lot, the
4:36
chiefs said, but it covers their expenses. End of quotes. Quote.
4:40
We want the community. We want to think the community
4:43
for backing us. Mulahan and Curricuio said, just being their matters.
4:47
End of quotes. They also offered a few tips for family.
4:51
Have a meeting place outside the home in case of fire,
4:54
so you know everyone is accounted for. Have a fire drill.
4:58
We have fire drills at school and work. Have one
5:01
at home so everyone knows what to do once outside.
5:04
Don't go back in. Let us go get your pets.

City and County proclaimed April as Child Abuse Prevention Month
5:14
by Jane Rey Kline March nineteenth, twenty twenty five. Springfield
5:19
Mayor Chris Essex and Washington County Judge Executive Tim Graves
5:22
signed a joint proclamation on Monday, March tenth, declaring April
5:28
as Child Abuse Prevention Month in Springfield and Washington County.
5:33
Sue clements from the Washington County Homemakers presented the Fiscal
5:37
Court with various statistics and facts about child abuse and
5:40
neglect and asked for the proclamation. The homemakers will again
5:44
place banners and pinbrols in front of the Washington County
5:47
Courthouse to promote awareness of the problem. ABC Administrator Tommy
5:52
Smith reported that six businesses in Washington County have been
5:56
approved for liquor licenses. The first of those licenses was
6:00
shooed on Monday to Corner Market in Willisburg. Smith said
6:03
the other five are expected within the next thirty days.
6:07
Also approved where the Dollar Market and Dollar General Store
6:10
in Willisburg, Easy Stops, Bourbon Trail Barbecue, and Lincoln Homestead
6:15
golf Course. Smith reported no applications to have been received
6:19
from the Bed and Breakfast or any other catering service.
6:23
Washington County Fire Chief Mike mullihan presented the court with
6:27
the latest ISO report on the county's fire department, which
6:31
we covered in a previous article. Judge Graves reported to
6:36
magistrates and the construction of the new Emergency Services building
6:40
that is progressing well and the contractor estimates complete or
6:44
estimates completion by August sixth. Graves also reported that an
6:48
arm of a tire loader at the landfill is bent.
6:52
The bend in the arm caused another part to break.
6:55
Two weeks after the broken part was replaced, the bend
6:57
caused a new part to break as well. After much
7:00
discussion about whether to straighten the bent arm or replace it,
7:04
magistrates voted to replace both arms at a cost of
7:07
twenty eight thousand dollars. However, after the meeting, Graves learned
7:11
that replacement arms would not be available for at least
7:14
a year. Graves said the bent arm will be straightened
7:18
to prevent further damage to the loader, which is used
7:21
daily at the landfill. The next regularly scheduled meeting of
7:26
the Washington County Fiscal Court will be Friday, March twenty eighth,
7:30
at nine a m. Corner Market receives first WC liquor
7:36
license by Daily Cline March sixteenth, twenty twenty five. Corner
7:41
Market will be the first so legally sell alcohol in
7:44
Washington County. Washington County issued its first liquor license on Monday,
7:48
March tenth, just one hundred and twenty days after the
7:51
county voted to allow liquor sales in the county. And
7:55
most of what is in this article was also covered
7:58
in the Fiscal Court news that I just reported a
8:01
few minutes ago. It just wanted to pass them along.

8:17
Four former students have reached settlements with Bardtown City schooled
8:21
over the alleged sexual misconduct of former Bardstown High School
8:25
coaching teacher Jeremy Dale. Last Friday, the Career Journal reported
8:29

9:03
given to the school two years ago. Two of the
9:06
former students worked as student workers in the district's Tiger Den,
9:10
of which Dale was their supervisor. This suit alleges quote
9:14
Dale's subjected plaintiffs and other co op employees to unwanted
9:18
physical touching and sexual comments end of quote. These actions,
9:22
including allege included alleged explicit comments and inappropriate touching. The
9:27
second suit, filed near the end of twenty twenty three,
9:31
alleges a third student, during their time with athletic and
9:34
extracurricular activities, was quote repeatedly subjected by defendant Dale to
9:39

and several of her fellow female students, both during her
9:46
participation in the activities described and as she moved about
9:50
the school during the regular course of her school day
9:53
end of quote. The Courier Journal reported that through open
9:57
record request VCS settled with all POE students whom had
10:01
filed lawsuits against the district. They report two students settled
10:05
with the district in August twenty twenty four, and two
10:08
other students settled with the district in December twenty twenty four.
10:12
One former student included in the original report of alleged
10:15
misconduct appears to have not filed against the district. The
10:19
joint lawsuit from two former students was dismissed from court
10:23
this February. The Courier Journal reported the women settled with
10:26
the district last December for nearly one hundred twenty thousand
10:30
dollars combined. The second lawsuit filed in December twenty twenty three,
10:35
was dismissed last September. The Courier Journal reported that the
10:38
former students settled with this district in August twenty twenty
10:42
four for fifty two thousand, five hundred dollars. The largest
10:46
settlement from the district also came in August twenty twenty four.

According to records obtained by the Courier Journal. They report

a fourth former students settled for one hundred and fifty
10:55
thousand dollars with the district and with agreement term stating
10:59
they would not file a se suit related to Dale
11:01
as it pertains to claims of misconduct as a former
11:04
student of BCS. The Kentucky Standard has reached out to
11:08
BCS prior to press time for Wednesday's publication for its
11:11
own open records request of the settlement. The district confirmed
11:16

18:24
opens at the Opera House by Jane reen Kline March
18:27
nineteen to twenty twenty five, Central Kentucky Theater or c
18:32
KT brings yet another enjoyable performance to the stage of
18:36
the Supremefield Opera House. Bright Starr opened on Friday, March
18:40
fourteenth with a talented cast of local and regional performers.
18:44
The c KT website describes the play as quote inspired
18:48
by a true story and featuring the Tony nominated score
18:51
by Steve Martin and Eddie Brickle. Broadway's Bright Star tells
18:55
a sweeping tale of love and redemption set against the
18:58
rich backdrop of the AMers himself in the nineteen twenties
19:02
and forties. Bride Star is the story of one woman,
19:05
Alice Murphy, at two different points in her life, the
19:08
first when she is a wild young thing growing up
19:11
and falling in love, barefoot and care free in the
19:14
Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. The second when she
19:17
is a well to do magazine editor in Asheville. Twenty
19:20
two years later, when Alice meets the young soldier just
19:23
home from World War Two, he awakens her desire to
19:27
understand her past, and what she finds has the power
19:30
to transform her life forever. With beautiful melodies and powerfully
19:35
moving characters, the story unfolds as a rich tapestry of
19:39
deep emotion, an uplifting theatrical journey that holds you tightly
19:44
in its grasp. Bride Star is as refreshingly genuine as
19:47
it is daringly hopeful. It's the beautiful story of love
19:51
lost and found set to incredible bluegrass music. Bride Star
19:56
was nominated for five Tony Awards, six Drama Deaths Awards,
20:00
and seven Outer Critics Circle Awards. C k T will
20:04
be performing Bright Star again this Friday, March twenty first
20:08
through Sunday, March twenty third, and tickets were still available
20:12
as of press time. The game of gratitude and opinion
20:19
piece by David B. Whitlock, Life Mattered. We sit silently
20:25
at the drop off line at school, still dark outside
20:28
with a time change. Car lights in front of us,
20:30
flickering the kids. Eddie Emming upset that the outfit she
20:34
picked out the night before didn't look as good as
20:36
in the morning. Eli's telling her to get over it.
20:40
I choose to ignore this minor skirmish, though I know
20:43
that never in the history of siblings has a little
20:45
sister quotes gotten over it, because her older brother told
20:48
her to get over it. And I was not as
20:51
chipper as usual, tired and entertaining serious second thoughts about
20:55
my choices for fasting during less then a random idea quote,
21:00
let's thank God for the things money can't buy. End
21:03
of quote. I announced silence from my passengers, so I
21:07
started it quote I'm thankful I can drive you too,
21:10
little munchkins to school. End of quotes. To my surprise,
21:14
they watched on. Emmy ventured first quote love at tad general,
21:20
but a start quote that's good, Emmy, I encouraged her,
21:24
glancing out the car window. ELI seconded her with quote
21:28
the moon back to my turn quote good health, I said,
21:32
I'm thankful I enjoy good health. End of quote, quote
21:36
the Trees study. By continuing the game, my teachers, Emmy
21:40
quickly matched him. We have the discussion about games money
21:45
can and can't buy. Money can buy the ice cream,
21:48
but not the taste to enjoy it. It takes money
21:51
to go on vacation, but we have to have the
21:53
health to travel. Money by baseball uniforms, but not the
21:57
ability to hit the ball, although we can pay for
22:00
batting lessons that might help. Back and forth we went
22:03
until I saw the cars in front of us beginning
22:05
to move. It's amazing how giving thanks changes our attitude
22:09
in an instant. We can move from criticisms to encouragement,
22:13
bore them to engagement, neutral to active quote. Remember things
22:18
go better when we are thankful. I reminded them, just
22:22
as they opened their car doors and scoot it out,
22:24
whispering a prayer as I drove away that our little
22:27
game would have a positive effect. Repeated studies have shown
22:31
that regularly practicing an attitude of gratitude has numerous mental
22:36
and physical benefits. It can reduce anxiety, which can lessen depression,
22:40
and improve sleep quality, which has a variety of health benefits,
22:44
including the most obvious mental alertness and physical energy. It
22:48
stands to reason that practicing gratefulness can, as studies have
22:52
repeatedly shown, improve relationships and increase our overall happiness. Often,
22:57
the most beautiful offerings of gratitude of merged from the
23:00
ugliest circumstances. I thought of one of my favorite quotes
23:04
of gratitude from Michael J. Box, who lives with Parkinson's diges.
23:09
Quote with gratitude, optimism is sustainable. If you can find
23:13
something to be grateful for, then you'll find something to
23:16
look forward to, and you carry on. In a quote
23:19
he said in an interview, quote you carry on. Gratitude
23:24
gives us a perspective that enables us to carry on
23:27
in a healthy, positive way, even if we aren't feeling
23:30
well or living in delightful circumstances. Exiting the school parking lot,
23:36
I imagined a new board game, Gratitude for the Things
23:39
Money Can't Buy. Each player would have to identify something
23:43
money could not buy within three seconds without repeating another
23:48
player's item of gratitude before moving on to the next
23:50
square on the board. One player could jump another player
23:54
and get more points it's the start, I thought, and
23:56
maybe by refining it, I could present an unshark tank
24:00
become a millionaire. I laughed at myself for entertaining the
24:04
silly idea of making money for a board game on
24:08
how to be thankful for the themes money can't buy
24:11
one thing I immediately did. Instead of focusing on what
24:14
I had decided to give up during WENT, I added
24:17
something A renewed commitment to the daily practice of gratitude.
24:22
The one sustainable habit I could maintain that would generate
24:25
positivity for all the other habits. The one card I
24:29
could play that's guaranteed to empower me to carry on
24:32
in difficult time through the board game of life. Gratitude.

24:46
twenty twenty five. And actually this is written by Ken Zegla.
24:53
It's coming up on my wedding anniversary with Sunday this month.
24:56
It's our thirty six. I feel like I should do
24:59
something nice for a woman. That is were are now
25:01
five adult children as the keeper of Birthdays, Christmas and
25:04
Easter of them their spouses and their grandchildren. I sort
25:08
of take care of myself, though she says that is
25:11
a full time job as well. But I'm not very
25:14
good at this sort of name, so I like to
25:15
go down to park few it game and run it
25:17
past the cashiers. I've found those ladies are some of
25:20
the smartest folks I know. I saw Pat there the
25:24
other day and said, my wedding anniversary is coming up,
25:26
and I'm curious's what you think I should do for it?
25:29
Pat said, Well, all women likes to go out to
25:31
eat to a nice restaurant. Have you thought about that? Yeah?
25:34
But McDonald's dollar menu isn't what it used to be.
25:37
McDonald I met a real restaurant with waiters and waitresses,
25:40
not somewhere where they ask you if you want fries
25:43
with that. Wow. I never realized what expensive taste you had. Pat,
25:47
I like to consider McDonald's as the gourmet choice of
25:49
the fast food industry. After all, over seventy million people
25:53
serve daily. Can't be wrong. Well, if I were you,
25:56
I think about that location over again. Have you thought
25:59
about sending her a dozen red roses for that special day? Oh?
26:03
You must think I'm made of money. Pat Besides, they
26:05
die in a week. I always get her a nice
26:07
house plan each year. Well, a plant can be nice,
26:10
But what do you get her? Is it a magnolia, camelia, orchid? No,
26:15
none of that. I like to get her the same
26:17
thing every year. Well, what is that at cheaped? You
26:20
mean that weird a leaky green stuff that grows in
26:22
the shape of flower pots to resemble people and animals. Yep,
26:27
I can see that you're a connoisseur of plant life
26:29
as well. Passed. How does that go over not as
26:33
well as you think. I might have to rethink this
26:35
idea this year anyway. Why well, they ran out of
26:39
trumpet Kenny. You are truly the last of great romantics.
26:43
I know, Pat that I would do anythin for Cindy.
26:46
I'd climb mountains, clim oceans and cross the desert for
26:49
that woman. That is just the kind of husband I am.
26:51
There are no limits when it comes to that. Sindy.
26:54
When are you taking her to dinner next Friday? If
26:57
it doesn't rain. I hope McDonald's is not the same
27:01
writer's notes. Just kidding, Cindy, Love you babe, Happy anniversary,
27:05
and you are loved for all you do for our families.
27:07
That she had Pat is also in the mail. Also
27:10
that conversation with Pat may not have happened. If Pat
27:13
wants to see me, then it definitely didn't happen or
27:17
it didn't happen. About this page. The opinions expressed on
