It

was a nice community celebration, complete with a

tailgate party.

The

Fayette Heritage Project committee has used some

of its funds to promote historic communities

throughout the county, both those long gone and

those still in existence. The first sign recently

was erected in the Kenwood Community in the north

end of Fayette County and both committee members

and community residents turned out for the event.

Hot

cider was served from the back of a truck and

historical information was exchanged between

long-time Kenwood citizens.

total of 18 community signs will be erected and

the other sites include: Fife/Bethany, Helmer,

Friendship, Hopeful, Sandy Creek, Stop, Tyrone,

Fayetteville, Cross Roads, Harp's Crossing,

Aberdeen/Clover, Rest, Inman, Woolsey, Dublin,

Starr's Mill, Lowry, Brooks and Chestlehurst.

The

Fayette Heritage Project Committee is made up of

county employees, representatives from the local

newspapers, the historical society and interested

county citizens.

It

is responsible for the Heritage Fountain at

Stonewall Village, Fayetteville, and for the

veteran brick project, also located at the

fountain.

The

funds from the brick project will be used not

only for the historic signs but also for various

historic projects throughout Fayette County.
