TERIS SWANSON Special to The Ballard County Weekly
This time last year Pastor Aaron Crainshaw was gearing up for what would become known as West Kentucky Fall Outreach, not knowing that the event would be such a success it would develop into an annual event. Founded by Pastor Crainshaw and his wife, Cassia, who IS currently pastor at Victory Full Gospel Church in Metropolis, IL, but are West Kentucky residents, West Kentucky Fall Outreach (WKFO) had two very simple goals: to bring together churches of all denominations and to reach out to nonChristians in the West Kentucky area. Over 500 people were in attendance the inaugural year of WKFO and Crainshaw said that he believes both of those goals were met and hopes to see growth this year. Adding to the event from last year, there are also several more recovery groups and other charitable organizations that will be attending in an endeavor of providing hope and encouragement to those See WKFO on Page 8

PADD receives 2014 Innovation Award in D.C. WASHINGTON, DC – The Purchase Area Development District, based in Mayfield, Kentucky, received a 2014 Innovation Award from the National Association of Development Organizations (NADO) Research Foundation for the Innovative Readiness Training Partnership project.
During August 2013, the US Army Reserve and the Delta Regional Authority partnered to provide free medical, dental, and optical services via the Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) in Mayfield, Kentucky. The purpose of the IRT program is to improve military readiness and training to
doctors and nurses in the reserve forces while simultaneously providing quality health care to communities. By utilizing their extensive resources, the military is able to meet urgent civil needs, including expanding access to basic health care. Anyone could receive services, on a walk-in

said. Built in the early 1900s the house associated with the original G. T. Scott Farm, Robinson’s great-grandfather was freshly under restoration. Contractor Jason Beasley hired by Robinson to complete the preservation project had removed an addition to the rear of the house, a week prior to the fire occurring, that was not a part of the original construction. Although there are several structures, as well as the farm, with historical significance the house is where the
efforts had been concentrated. Over the past four years, a considerable amount of time has been spent with consultant and historic preservation specialist Melinda Winchester on surveys and research into the back ground of the farm and buildings. Mentioning to a hwy planning team which worked its way through the area about five years ago, Robinson says he had asked if any one had looked into the history of some of the buildings he owned along the current Hwy 60. Not considering any of the structures to have historic value they were

surprised at the findings during a preliminary record search. Architecture is part of what gave the house historical credentials. According to an article by Winchester, the hip roof gave the bungalow style house its unique design. Catching on in popularity there were few of this type house in Ballard. The Scott farm once had three located on it. A Field Guide to American Houses states this type house made up less then 10 percent of Craftsman constructed houses. The house has been used for the past ten years as a storage facility for Robinson’s late wife’s, Dr. Charlene Robinson, medical practice records. Lost also in the blaze, according to Eagle Rest Plantation Secretary Dawn Bergeron, were a couple of antique bed room suites and a few other miscellaneous antiques. Bergeron said as far as they are aware there hadn’t been as much as a trespasser on the property. Robinson says he had cancelled the insurance on the house thinking the condition of the roof made it uninsurable but had made arrangements to reinsure it after the restoration was completed. Robinson said if the fire had occurred a few weeks ago it would have saved him a couple thousand dollars. The fire is under investigation at this time and arson is believed to be the cause.

was on my way to BMHS, I made a special trip past the cemetery just to see how it looks a couple of days after the makeover. Knowing the exact location, or so I thought, I blew right by without knowing. The cemetery had been cleaned a year or so earlier, and it was a maintenance and repair trip for the group of seven volunteers this time out. I had gone out on the past Saturday to observe their efforts as they cleared away overgrowth from the thicket as it was threatening to reclaim the cemetery as its own again. One of the stones in the cemetery is engraved with the name Thos. Terrell; a Civil War soldier Making the connections: Pink-Out On Tuesday, Sept. 23rd, the Lady Bombers volleyball played Community Christian Academy at home in their annual Pink Out for a Cure game. During the game, which Ballard won, I unexpectedly happen to run into someone I had intended to contact. Johnny Hargrove, or as some of his friends refer to him, ‘Groover’, is someone I have known for a lot years. Johnny is quite the creative sort, working with natural wood such as finding and making canes or walking sticks from twisted grape vines, etc. Figuring an old-looking rail-style fence would highlight the cemetery, I sat down beside him to ask if he would be interested in putting his creativity to use and erect the fence. The fence would be on either end of the cemetery between the road and the stones leaving an opening between the two pieces of fence to create an entrance. As we discussed the cemetery and the fencing, much too my surprise Johnny was familiar with its location. As the cemetery was obscured in over growth again, I was curious how he would have known of its existence. He said as he was passing by when the cemetery had first

been cleaned, he noticed a piece of twisted sassafras that had been cut and discarded by the cleaning crew. He stopped to get the stick, and while he was there he took the time to explore the cemetery. The GPS At that point of the conversation he said he found a GPS singling device in the cemetery. When he told me about the GPS, I knew instantly what he was talking about. I remembered the cemetery cleaning crew finding something they weren’t sure what it was or what to make of it. The item they had found was around the size of a Band-Aid box, a little thicker possibly, made of plastic the color of army green. There was speculation as to what they had found, and what it might be, but as I recall no one ever mentioned GPS. The signaling device it seems is part of a nationwide scavenger hunt game called GEOCACHING. He was acquainted with these types of games through his son. During the years his son attended middle school, he and all the students had played this style game. Intrigued by the information I had just received, I returned to the cemetery to see if I could find the game piece. Not sure where to begin looking and fearing it had been thrown away and covered up by debris, I began my search at the place it had been found. There it lay a foot or so away on the ground underneath the piece of tree stump where it had been found. The tree stump in its self is unique in that it is arced in an 12-16 inch radius with a natural grooved out spot from where the stump had once been a tree about eight inches across that had been bent over exposing the hollowed out portion facing skyward. That’s where the GPS had been found, and that’s where I put it back but not before bringing it home with me. The signaling device said Do Not Disturb, but

The condition of the cemetery on Saturday, Sept. 20, before cleaning and repair. At right, the stump where the GEOCACHE device was located before being toss aside. there was identifying information written on it with a felt tip marker that gave code numbers, the name of the person who had left it there, etc. The markings were faded beyond my recognition, but I knew a younger pair of eyes at home could probably make out what I couldn’t. The game piece read GOECACH.com. The information I couldn’t decipher was a code number, the code name of the person who had placed it there, and the date it was placed. If you look up the web address and type in your zip code, the site will popup several devices planted in this area. This particular apparatus was put in that location June 10, 2013, by Refuge Road and named Lest We Forget. The Civil War soldier Buried in that little unobtrusive cemetery is a tombstone that reads Thos. Terrell. The GPS device, according to the web page, was placed and named in honor of Terrell. The following is an account on the GEOCACHE site explaining why the canister is at that particular site: I have driven past this location for at least 20 years, and it was always just an overgrown fencerow. Last spring, the highway department cleared it to reveal several headstones. I was saddened and amazed to see that one was an official government issued marker. Thomas Terrell was born about 1830, in

Ballard students among 1,400 attending fourth annual Construction Career Day
There were 83 students from Ballard County Career and Technical Center among the 1,400 from all over Western Kentucky in attendance at the fourth annual Construction Career Day at Murray State University on Sept. 18. The event is hosted by Paducah’s Associated General Contractors/ TBCW Photo Western Kentucky ConJanie Curtis drives a concrete refinishing struction Association, machine at the the fourth annual Construction Career Day at Murray State University on Sept. 18.
along with MSU’s Department of Industrial and Engineering Technology; MSU’s Regional Outreach Council; West Kentucky Community and Technical College; the Paducah Area Construction Advancement Foundation; McKeel Equipment Co.; Pinnacle Inc.; Jim Smith Contracting Co.; and over 40 additional vendors. Students came from
25 school districts, from the river counties to as far away as Ohio and Muhlenberg counties. Organizers are trying to reach out to a very diverse talent pool to fill an estimated 2 million new skilled jobs in the industry by 2017, from welders, laborers, machinists and equipment operators to project managers and engineers. The event is staffed
by construction professionals who answer questions and demonstrate many construction workforce tasks. Students even get handson time on some of the largest and newest technology available in the industry, from backhoes and concrete finishers to computer-assisted welding and other simulators.

grapes are usually found on the ground unless a vine can be located growing in a fencerow or other such low support. My vine at home was in a tree that the 2009 ice storm broke over and brought the vines to the ground, these vines have grown back up the broken tree and formed a large shrub structure so the grapes are at eye level. Used fresh, in jellies, jams, and wines the muscadine has been utilized since early European Settler days. Prior to that Native Americans enjoyed the sweet treat. Not only are the grapes themselves eaten but young shoots and leaves may be boiled and eaten as well. The muscadine is not only good to eat but is good for one as well as it contains several beneficial antioxidants and vitamins. So when out enjoying this cooler weather keep an eye peeled for the muscadine grape. As usual when describing edible or medicinal properties I must add the following disclaimer, neither the paper nor myself are responsible for the mis-identification and/or possible untoward effects from eating or otherwise utilizing wild plants

It seems a little early but I have noticed some ripe Muscadines, Vitis rotundifolia falling to the ground recently. The muscadine is one of two common wild grapes in our area. The other is called a wild grape or possum grape and is much smaller and more tart tasting than the muscadine. When comparing the two vines possum grapes have a much larger leaf and the grapes grow in hanging bunches similar to store bought grapes but just smaller. Muscadines usually grow individual grapes or maybe have two to four individual fruits on the same stem. Some cultivars that are grown commercially have several grapes in a bunch but the wild ones I have seen here are of the variety that have one or two. The grapes range in size from half to three quarter inches across and are a purple/black color when ripe. They are very thick skinned and have seeds but are very sweet and rival any store bought grape for flavor. The skin is tough though so is not usually eaten but instead the contents are squeezed out into your mouth. Vines grow to the tree tops so the ripe
