The beloved Wolfe County landmark sat empty for a decade atop a hill overlooking town, slowly falling apart before everyone’s eyes. Baseball-size hail broke windows and damaged the roof in March 2012, the same night a tornado destroyed much of nearby West Liberty. Two years later, teenaged vandals broke into the school and went on a rampage.“If you hadn’t come along when you did, we would have lost this place,” J.C.

It’s Girl Scout cookie season in the Kentucky Bluegrass, where you are likely to purchase a box of Caramel deLites and scoff when someone at your office claims the chocolate-coconut cookie is really called Samoas.That’s because there are two bakeries in the Girl Scout cookie business, and each council — which oversees troops in a specific region — chooses which bakery provides them with cookies.Susan Douglas, chief executive officer of the Wilderness Road Council of Girl Scouts in Lexington, sa..>> view originalBalagula Theatre may be gone, but its influence will endure
When word spread in December 2014 that Balagula Theatre’s co-founding artistic directors Ryan Case and Natasha Williams had resigned amid financial troubles, you could almost feel the theater community collectively hold its breath to see what would happen next. We had just lost Actors Guild of Lexington the previous month, when it announced it was entering “hibernation” from which it has not awoken. Regardless of Balagula’s fate, it felt like the end of an era.We now know that the Balagula era ..>> view originalNotes: Marcus Lee gives UK a counter to Gamecocks inside
With Alex Poythress sidelined and facing arguably the Southeastern Conference’s most physical team, Kentucky needed one of its “bigs” to play well. Marcus Lee was that “big.”Lee posted his first double-double since Nov. 30 to help Kentucky beat South Carolina 89-62 Saturday. He scored 11 points (first double-digit total since Jan. 5) and grabbed a career-high 13 rebounds. The latter tied Poythress (13 against Eastern Kentucky) for the most rebounds grabbed by a UK player this season.“So proud o..>> view originalPaul Dunbar sweeps 8th Region swimming finals
There were no surprises in store at the Stivers Aquatic and Wellness Center Saturday.

The question is simple: How can Lexington turn food waste from a challenge into an opportunity?The answer is not so simple, but a group of residents tackled it Saturday during small-group discussions on composting and food recycling.“Food has more value than just being a nutrient,” said Sarah Legas Newman in the meeting at Sayre School in downtown Lexington.She meant that kitchen scraps, coffee grounds, peels, rinds, leaves, grass clippings and other organic matter has value when it breaks down..>> view originalEastern Kentucky University opens surprise time capsule
Eastern Kentucky University officials have opened a more than half-century-old time capsule whose discovery on campus came as a surprise.The copper box, manufactured by students on campus, was buried in 1961 by former university President Robert Martin in the cornerstone of the hall that bore his name, the Richmond Register (bit.ly/1WjCeu8) reported. A crowd of EKU students, staff and faculty attended the box's opening this past week.Copies of newspapers along with a course catalog, magazines a..>> view originalNortheast wakes up to record cold for Valentine's Day
