Inside this Issue... In the beginning of this internship, I was uncertain what to

expect, how to behave, or who I would be interac ng with.

And thanks to that, I’ve had more of a memorable

experience that I ever expected from this summer. From

the very beginning of this summer, I was thrust into the

works of the community. Thanks to the people over at the

LaRue County Extension Service: Pa y Holbert, Daniel

Carpenter, Theresa Howard, Sue Ann McCandless, Marcy

Ward and especially Misty Wilmoth; this summer was one

of the most rewarding of my life.

This summer was full of wonderful experiences and inter-

es ng events. It was a pleasure and a delight to be able to

work here at LaRue County with all of the amazing people

of the county. Thanks to everyone who welcomed me into

the community, I’ll never forget this experience.
