It was so nice catching up with author and travel writer Kathryn Witt as she made a trek across Kentucky this weekend. She and her husband John visited Hodgenville's many winners from Kentucky Living's Best in Kentucky contest during their time here.

The museum is proud to be included in two of her recent books, featuring the most unique destinations across the commonwealth, including a number of Hodgenville destinations. Kathy's books are available in our museum's gift shop.

As a reminder, the museum will be open on Columbus Day, Monday October 12 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (Eastern time).

On Wednesday, September 30, a group of twelve 8th grade students began a 9-month program called "Lincoln Museum Young Leaders” in conjunction with LaRue County Schools and sponsorship assistance from Lincoln National Bank.

This pilot program is designed to follow the school’s Learner Profile curriculum and to foster knowledge and understanding of various aspects of the community from locally-owned small business, agriculture, manufacturing, and civic engagement.

We received the nicest piece of mail! It was copy of Escapees RV Club magazine (with a nationwide distribution to 100,000+ members) and the cutest thank you card.

Back in April, the museum hosted Traveling With Marilyn, and coordinated a visit that included two nights at The Lincoln Lodge and visits to historic sites throughout the community, including Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historical Park.

The pictures are wonderful, the article is in-depth (and even includes coordinates for the RV enthusiasts).

We're thankful to Marilyn and to everyone who helped make her visit so memorable.
