Dycusburg News: Sept. 20, 2007

Thank you to whoever hauled off the old recliner that was sitting out. That was very nice of you. I am so happy to see everyone taking pride in our town.

Homecoming was held at the Baptist church on Sunday. A big crowd attended services. Bro. Jerry Thurman, a former pastor at the church, preached and following services was a huge potluck dinner. The Hampton Brothers sang in the afternoon. Everyone enjoyed the day.

Fall Revival at the Baptist church will be held Oct. 14-17. Sunday services will be at 9 a.m. (Sunday School), 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., for worship services. Monday-Wednesday services will be held at 7 p.m. Everyone is invited.

Matthew T. Patton informs us that he updates dycusburg.com every day or two with interesting local anecdotes and news. The site has also recently been redesigned. Be sure to check it out!

Do you have some great recipes to share? The Dycusburg Community Fund (DCF) Committee will be printing a cookbook to benefit the DCF. The proceeds from the book will benefit future Dycusburg Day events, special holiday celebrations or other special community projects.

The group is accepting recipes via e-mail at tcochrum1@localnet.com. Deadline for recipes is Nov. 15, 2007, and printing will occur in early 2008. If you'd prefer to mail your recipes, please send them to PO Box 59, Dycusburg, KY 42037.

Although we welcome all recipes, we are looking for recipes from with a solid family or heartwarming story behind them, such as a recipe handed down through generations or a classic dish made with a twist. Include the story or history behind the recipe if you can!

The Dycusburg Community Fund Committee will hold a meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Dycusburg Baptist Church Fellowship Hall. Anyone interested in our goals, fund-raisers, projects, etc., please attend.

The Dycusburg Post Office has all the latest mailing supplies and stamps. They offer money orders and fax services. Boxes are available for rent and the lighted lobby is open 24 hours a day for your convenience.
