MAMMOTH CAVE

Allen Jaggers has been working at Mammoth Cave National Park for the past three seasons.

Jaggers, of Edmonson County, works in the park’s maintenance department and says it’s a job he loves.

“You meet a lot of different people,” he said.

Some of his duties include emptying trash cans, changing light bulbs, changing air-conditioning filters and cleaning the bathrooms at the park’s Visitors’ Center.

When he’s not at work, Jaggers said he likes to fish.

“I try to go once a week during the summertime,” he said.

His favorite fishing spot is Lake Nolin.

When he goes fishing, he usually fishes for catfish, blue gill and crappie.

Jaggers once caught a 20-pound catfish. Rather than having the big fish mounted so he could hang it on a wall in his home, he put it in the freezer.

Jaggers also enjoys hunting.

“I hunt rabbit and quail,” he said.

He’s also a “shade tree mechanic,” working on cars as a hobby.

Jaggers attends Cave Hollow United Baptist Church in Edmonson County.

He has one stepdaughter, Tara Michelle Lindsey, who is 23.

Jaggers’ plan for the future, he said, is just “surviving.”
