CHEERS & JEERS: Welcome to Barren’s greatest week
Glasgow Daily Times
GLASGOW
—
Everything has fallen into place this year to make this the best week to be in Barren County.
It all began with the June Dairy Days celebration last Saturday at the Cave City Convention Center. Many area citizens were able to enjoy a day dedicated to recognizing Barren County as the No. 1 dairy-producing county in the state. There were treats for all and demonstrations for those willing to take a crack at milking a cow by hand. Mostly, the kids enjoyed the simulator — a plastic cow named Kate.
The spectacular reasons for being in Barren County continue Thursday and Friday.
The annual Concert on the Square returns Thursday with the Louisville Orchestra playing patriotic tunes in celebration of the Fourth of July. The concert begins at 7 p.m. adjacent to the Barren County Courthouse on the Glasgow Public Square.
It’s always a spectacular show that has brought the Louisville Orchestra to our community eight times in the past 10 years. It’s the result of the progressive vision of a number of people within Barren County and it should be greatly appreciated. Not every small town gets a Fourth of July concert each year.
Also Thursday at around 8:45 p.m., Cave City will have its annual Fourth of July explosion with a fireworks display.
On Friday night, the sky over Barren River State Park will light up with the pop of fireworks. It’s another annual event that draws thousands of people from many miles.
This year the calendar fell right so that the Dairy Days was on one weekend and the Fourth of July holiday began on the following Friday.
It makes a great week for our community to attract people from outside the area to come and visit. And hopefully, they’ll stay a while and enjoy the many other venues we have to offer.
