You’re cordially invited to attend our upcoming Chamber of Commerce monthly luncheon on Tuesday, July 2nd.

We have a very special program hosting Daniel Boone, Portrayed by Actor Kevin Hardesty.

The Kentucky Chautauqua has brought to life more than 70 famous people from Kentucky’s past. Chautauqua performers travel to schools and community organizations throughout the state delivering historically accurate dramatizations of Kentuckians who made valuable contributions.

Daniel Boone is the quintessential Kentuckian, having blazed the trails that would become the map of Kentucky through courage, love of the newfound region, and his cunning facility with the land and its native peoples. Boone was an intrepid adventurer and natural leader whose exploits justify his larger-than-life reputation.

Lunch will be held at The Center for Rural Development and will begin at 12:00 (Noon).
