Hello

Due to construction delays at the Madison County Extension Education building we must change our location for the Giant Watermelon and Pumpkin Seminar. The construction was supposed to be finished by mid January. Sorry to say it did not happen.

The seminar will now be held at the Mt Pleasant Christian Church.

Traveling in from the North or South on I-75 take EXIT 95 (Boonesborough exit).

If you are traveling from the North at bottom of ramp turn RIGHT on KY 627 go to
4-way stop. Turn LEFT on Lexington Rd. (US25) drive 0.8 miles. See Church on the LEFT …

If you are traveling from the South at bottom of ramp turn LEFT on KY 627 go to
4-way stop. Turn LEFT on Lexington Rd (US25) drive 0.8 miles. See Church on the
LEFT…

If you are staying at the Jameson Inn or other hotels located at EXIT 87 the seminar is approx. 13 minutes NORTH on I-75.

Because this venue is slightly smaller please RSVP Tim Pennington at [email protected] the KGPG will be glad to reserve a seat for you.
