Kentucky Section ITE
November 2019
Does anyone else feel like we went straight from summer to winter?

I blinked and we went from scorching temperatures and no rain for 36 days to "Expect 1-2 inches of snow tonight."

Well, suddenly it is November and November is the time of change: time change, administration change, leaves change, and KYSITE officers change!

KYSITE members should expect an email soon with the ballot for our slate of 2020 officers.

We hope you are excited for our Annual Banquet to be held this Friday and Winter Technical Session which will be held in January or February. More details to come.

As always, thank you for your continued support and please don't hesitate to reach out if we can be of assistance.

WCPO in Cincinnati reported in 2015 Bevin swept Boone, Kenton and Campbell Counties by 17,000 votes, but on Tuesday, Andy Beshear cut his margin in those areas to just 4,000 votes. READ MORE.
