2025 January E-News

Young Leaders

On December 4th, our Young Leaders gathered for an exciting Hospitality and Tourism Day, and we want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who made it possible! The day kicked off with a candle-making experience at Making Good Scentz, followed by insightful presentations from local hospitality leaders: Sam Lacy of Bourbon Capital Academy, Hannah Medley of Visit Bardstown, and Lisa Thomas from the Bardstown-Nelson County Chamber of Commerce. Our Young Leaders learned about the diverse career opportunities in hospitality and the exciting developments happening in our community.


The group then toured My Old Kentucky Home State Park before enjoying a delicious lunch aboard the My Old Kentucky Dinner Train - RJ Corman, where they also learned about the trainโ€™s operations. The day concluded with a visit to the Bardstown-Nelson Co. African American Heritage Museum, where they gained a deeper understanding of our history.


It was an inspiring day filled with learning, discovery, and community engagement!

December Connect Hosted By: American Fuji Seal and Holiday Inn Express & Suites

What an incredible last 5PM Connect of the year sponsored by American Fuji Seal and Holiday Inn Express & Suites!


The evening was all about great conversations, amazing food, and fantastic company. Manoj and Wilma outdid themselves and everyone enjoyed the Indian cuisine and a beautiful charcuterie board.


The holiday cocktails were flowing, and the mood was festive. And talk about awesome giveaways - bottles of wine and bourbon that had everyone excited!
