Road Warriors – While there’s still some gasoline
left…
See, you gotta listen to
92.5 WBKR – The Country Station – to learn all the details about this thing,
but here’s a quick summary: Teams will drive to a pre-designated checkpoint,
where they will receive clues that will lead them on a mysterious journey to
yet another checkpoint, where they will get more clues (and so on). Once each
team has crossed each of the checkpoints, they’ll cross the finish line; their
total mileage will then be logged by certified mile-log-oloists. The team that
has a final mile total closest to the actual distance of the course will win.
Sounds easy, right? It ain’t.
Teams of two to five are allowed; they must present proof
of insurance and of course the driver has to have a license and proof of
insurance.
What’s the payoff? A thousand damn dollars, that’s what.
It all happens Saturday, October 24; sponsors include
Diamond Lake Resort and Ole South Barbeque. So listen to WBKR for more. Ready,
set, go!
Charlene Blay & Second Edition will be performing at Taste of Owensboro.

Fall Family Fun
It’s autumn; the air is
fresh and crisp with the occasional aroma of burning leaves in the air. Time to
dredge up the fall playlist (Samhain for you punk rockers; Sabbath Bloody Sabbath for you old school metalheads; and uh… I
don’t know, what’s appropriate for hip-hoppers? Eric B & Rakim’s always
worked for us). With the music picked out, what to do next? How about trucking
down to Utica
to Trunnell’s Farm Market each weekend for their ongoing Fall Family Fun Fest?
Activities include pumpkin and face painting, hayrides,
straw mazes, corn hole and pumpkin toss games and much more. Trunnell’s is a
great place to pick up farm-fresh wares for the kitchen too. Check out
trunnellsfarmmarket.com or call 270-733-2222 for extra information.
