1 Cooperative Extension Service University of Kentucky Barren County Extension Office 1463 West Main Street Glasgow, KY Fax: extension.ca.uky.edu Dear Homemakers, Fall is finally here! I hope the Slow Cooker and Breads lessons came just in time for your family. The Bazaar is keeping so many of you busy and I hope everyone can join in to make this annual event a success as always! Please spread the word with friends and family and please let the office know how many flyers you need if you would like to help post around town. I m excited to be teaching a money habit/spending program in multiple high school classrooms this fall. Additionally, I will be attending some trainings and my state conference. Look for an online class at the first of the year Small Steps to Health & Wealth. I hope you enjoy the upcoming holiday with your family and I hope you don t forget to take care of yourself during this busy season.
