The second annual PossumFest is back to celebrate the beloved Trash Cat of Kentucky. October 14th, enjoy 80 plus unique vendors, cleverly named delicious food, family fun, and live music.
One of Pike Countyâs longest tenured public servants recently wrapped up over 45 years of work in the community.
Blaine Beekman has entered retirement, a state he sarcastically called âperfectâ, because there isnât much to do these days but turn on the news and view all the chaos that is taking place.
For a man who has kept as busy for as long as Beekman has, retirement will likely be a significant change of speed, but given the broad and lasting effect he has had on his community, it is a well deserved break.
Beekman began his career as an educator- the occupation in which he says his true identity is found. His first teaching job was at Southeast Community College in Cumberland Kentucky as a Political Science teacher.
