On October 23, 2008 from 6 Pm to 9 Pm An Exhibit of personal photographs of Jackie O will be on display to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society at the First Federal Savings Bank in Elizabethtown, KY. As you may or may not know, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis lost her battle to lymphoma, but you can help us find a cure so that others are able to survive. Please support our efforts to raise awareness about blood cancers while paying tribute to an American icon.
This event is by invitation, and there will be a silent auction as well as a cash bar and donations will be taken at the door. This will be an event to remember so mark it on your calendar. If you would like to attend, or have questions or to RSVP, please contact Jen Pitts at 502.584.8490 or jen.pitts@lls.org. If you would like to be involved at a sponsor level, we are taking donations of all types of services such as spa packages, and donations of paintings, or electronics, etc. The collection of 28 personal photographs taken by renowned photographer Jacques Lowe provides a glimpse of Kennedy life before and during the White House era.
Plan to attend this exciting event.

I found this great little website that is useful if you are moving to a new zip code or trying to decide which zip code in a particular area you might want to settle in. You can easily compare several different zip codes and find information such as Educational Achievements, Marital Status, Newcomer Appeal/Stability of each area, approx. household income, Occupations, as well as some general info such as population and land/water area. Check out our zip code here or compare it to your own by visiting this cool site. www.zipskinny.com While you are there, don't forget to check out the schools listed in your zip code. Remember too that in a community such as ours, the schools are mostly county schools so they would actually pull up under several different zip codes. If you are moving to our area, you might also want to check out Radcliff (40160), Ft. Knox (40121), Cecilia (42724), Vine Grove (40175), Hodgenville (42748), and Brandenburg (40108).
