The annual Grist Mill and Old Engine Days at the Red River Museum in Clay City brought together artisans, crafters, and old engine enthusiasts from all over for two weather-perfect days of enjoyment. WSKV was on hand for the event that organizers say grows larger with each passing year. The highlight of this year’s festival was the benefit auction of donated handcrafts and artwork that included a “courting” dulcimer, with proceeds going to the Red River Museum.
Red River Gorge native, singer/songwriter, Barry Morrison was in the WSKV studio May 7th to debut his new release titled, “The End of the Line,” during the Bluegrass Breakout show with Matt and Angela. He talked about returning to his roots and his love of making music as well as renewal in the place he grew up, Nada, Kentucky. Barry will be performing at the Nada Mountain Heritage Festival June 8th. WSKV will be on site and will share more details about the festival as they become available.
Join us today from noon to 12:45pm for the National Day of Prayer Observence LIVE from downtown Winchester. The annual event is organized in Clark County by Grace Baptist Church in Winchester.
In an effort to better serve our listeners all over the Central and Eastern Kentucky region, WSKV has launched the Appalachian Health Awareness Campaign to educate and empower listeners by sharing important health information. The Campaign kicked off at the start of March with the National Nutrition Month public service announcements made possible by United Clinics of Kentucky Beattyville and in Campton.
Future campaigns on the calender to increase health awareness are Stress Awareness, Men’s Health, Mental Health Awareness, and more. It is our hope that partnering with area health care professionals to deliver important health information to our audience, we can have a positive effect on the overall health of the region. After all, the people of Appalachia are our most valuable resource!
Partnerships for the WSKV Appalachian Health Awareness Campaign are still available at incredibly low rates. Call WSKV today at 606-663-2811 to find out how your business can help.
