I was over there working last summer when they got the skate park below the high school. I am glad that the kids actually have some where to go now to do things instead of driving the 30 minutes to Hazard.

That is awesome! I have always said that Letcher County needed a YMCA or some kind of sports complex of some sort for these kids and well, us Adults, LOL!
