HAZARD — Officials in Perry County continued on Thursday to assess damage from the flash flooding on Wednesday that covered roads, filled culverts and downed trees. While Perry County received around five inches of rain in just a few minutes causing some road damage, areas on Knott County were very hard hit with severe damage to both public roads and private property.

Perry County has been hit by major storms that have caused flood damage about once a year for the past several years. All of this adds up to waiting for several years to get federal money to pay back for large scale repair projects. It can be up to five years before some counties receive funds for damages.

Perry County is currently waiting for reimbursement for two floods, both from over a year ago. This waiting has stretched the county’s budget, though at present the county remains on solid ground financially, said Perry County Judge-Executive Denny Ray Noble, who declared a state of emergency on Wednesday.

Noble is already looking at how Perry County will pay for their minimal repairs and are looking at joining forces with other counties to apply for grant money from the National Resources Conservation Service.

“I didn’t think yesterday, in my mind, that we would have enough to file for that,” said Noble. “But we can go in together with other counties. There is probably not enough damage in Perry County to file on our own.”

In Perry County, most of the rain fell in the southern part of the county, breaking a few roads and overwhelming several culverts. Fort Branch in Fusonia and Bull Creek in Leatherwood were two of the hardest hit areas in Perry County.

While minimal property damage has been reported in Perry County so far, Noble said that he hopes that by applying for funds early they will be able to help any people that have issues from the flooding.

It is these rainy days that Noble said he has been saving for, and he is worried about how Knott County, which was so hard hit by the storm, will be able to handle the costs of clean up since they may not be reimbursed for several years.

The issues created by previous floods in Perry County have been fixed mostly by using county funds and county workers. Since they have not yet been able to be inspected by the Federal Emergency Management Administration for those projects, they have not been able to recoup those losses.

I have never heard such b.s in my life That little girl has to live for the rest of her life with the nightmars of the things this pedophile done to her: so in my opinion 20 years is not nearly enough. As far as testimony to the fact that the hymen was in tact and all this other bull the Honarable Bill Engle would never follow through on a trial of a person with evidence showing his innocence because he could be disbarred Mr Engle is strict and by the book if he held a trial and a unanimous verdict was rendered you can bet money it will not be over turned. He has never had a case over turned or ever lost an appeal. Stop crying over the fact your brother is a child molester and rapist and deal with it. The man is a worthless piece of garbage and deserves to spend the rest of his life behind bars! And hopefully when you get your criminal justice degree in 20 years because it will take an inbreed dumba;; like yourself that long, maybe then you can start busting all those drug dealers in scuddy starting with your brother and your mom and maybe then your boyfriend. The case is over and your brother will be tortured when he makes it to prison and im sure by the time he gets out in 17 years his hymen definetly will not be intact.

Director Terry Thies has announced the cast for the upcoming production of “The Fourth Princess” by Geoff Bamber.

The play, a presentation of Little Theatre of Hazard, will be performed during Summer in the Park, a celebration of the Arts and Bobby Davis Park, on Saturday, June 22 at 7 p.m. Thies also announced that Letha Patterson will be the music director for the play.

This year the group will add more musical numbers to their show and that is only being made possible by Patterson having time to work with LTH this summer. Everyone in the production is very happy to have Patterson on board and are adjusting well to the additional song and dance numbers. Patterson is also running the sound effects for the show.

“The Fourth Princess” brings together actors from age 4 to age 18 to tell the story of a broke kingdom (from paying off the dowries of threeprincesses), their valiant king just home from the Crusades to discover his treasury is no more. His ever faithful Prime Minister Batac concocts an impossible task to bring the country back to greatness.

The cast of the “The Fourth Princess” includes by alphabet: Emile Adams, Dana Bush, Jonathan Counts, Mary Daniels, Alexa Davidson, Ava Dixon, Libby Doll, Mandy Engle, Connor Francis, Raegan Francis, Caitlyn Fugate, Ramsey Hall, Kelsy Howard, Madison Howard, Halle Jo Kilburn, Seth Lewis, Trey Lewis, Madison Miller, Elly Morris, Haley Patterson, Henry Sepulveda, Skyanne Slone, Brock Torres, Sarah Torres, and Lily Williams-Lucero.

The Teen Players will also present a short play, “Among Friends and Clutter” by Lindsey Price. Seth Lewis, one of our originals, is directing with assistants Connor Francis, Rebecca States and Tori Howard. The play is a series of vignettes around the lives of seven people who were in the same First Grade class. The Players in this production are: Alexa Davidson, Connor Francis, Caitlyn Fugate, Ramsey Hall, Seth Lewis, Elly Morris, Skyanne Slone, and Sarah Torres.

Summer in the Park was voted the Best Community Festival for 2012 in March’s “Reader Choice Awards” conducted by The Hazard Herald. The Art Festival will be June 22 this year with displays ready for viewing by 4pm. Any young artists in the area, ages 3-18, are welcome to submit pieces for the Youthful Art Display this year. Artists of all disciplines are welcome to display, demonstrate and sell their works at the festival, with no charge to the artist. Room is still available if you would like to set up for the festival. See our page on Facebook, Summer in the Park, to sign up, or contact Terry Thies 436-2848. The Festival is made possible this year by the Foundation for Appalachian Kentucky, the Hazard Lions Club, Community Bank and Trust and Whitaker Bank.

The hardest hit room at Big Creek was the kindergarten room which is in a separate building to the side of the school. Mud and water from the overflowed creek still covered the floor of the room Wednesday afternoon as cleanup had yet to begin in that area. (photo by Amelia Holliday | Hazard Herald)

I have never heard such b.s in my life That little girl has to live for the rest of her life with the nightmars of the things this pedophile done to her: so in my opinion 20 years is not nearly enough. As far as testimony to the fact that the hymen was in tact and all this other bull the Honarable Bill Engle would never follow through on a trial of a person with evidence showing his innocence because he could be disbarred Mr Engle is strict and by the book if he held a trial and a unanimous verdict was rendered you can bet money it will not be over turned. He has never had a case over turned or ever lost an appeal. Stop crying over the fact your brother is a child molester and rapist and deal with it. The man is a worthless piece of garbage and deserves to spend the rest of his life behind bars! And hopefully when you get your criminal justice degree in 20 years because it will take an inbreed dumba;; like yourself that long, maybe then you can start busting all those drug dealers in scuddy starting with your brother and your mom and maybe then your boyfriend. The case is over and your brother will be tortured when he makes it to prison and im sure by the time he gets out in 17 years his hymen definetly will not be intact.

Director Terry Thies has announced the cast for the upcoming production of “The Fourth Princess” by Geoff Bamber.

The play, a presentation of Little Theatre of Hazard, will be performed during Summer in the Park, a celebration of the Arts and Bobby Davis Park, on Saturday, June 22 at 7 p.m. Thies also announced that Letha Patterson will be the music director for the play.

This year the group will add more musical numbers to their show and that is only being made possible by Patterson having time to work with LTH this summer. Everyone in the production is very happy to have Patterson on board and are adjusting well to the additional song and dance numbers. Patterson is also running the sound effects for the show.

“The Fourth Princess” brings together actors from age 4 to age 18 to tell the story of a broke kingdom (from paying off the dowries of threeprincesses), their valiant king just home from the Crusades to discover his treasury is no more. His ever faithful Prime Minister Batac concocts an impossible task to bring the country back to greatness.

The cast of the “The Fourth Princess” includes by alphabet: Emile Adams, Dana Bush, Jonathan Counts, Mary Daniels, Alexa Davidson, Ava Dixon, Libby Doll, Mandy Engle, Connor Francis, Raegan Francis, Caitlyn Fugate, Ramsey Hall, Kelsy Howard, Madison Howard, Halle Jo Kilburn, Seth Lewis, Trey Lewis, Madison Miller, Elly Morris, Haley Patterson, Henry Sepulveda, Skyanne Slone, Brock Torres, Sarah Torres, and Lily Williams-Lucero.

The Teen Players will also present a short play, “Among Friends and Clutter” by Lindsey Price. Seth Lewis, one of our originals, is directing with assistants Connor Francis, Rebecca States and Tori Howard. The play is a series of vignettes around the lives of seven people who were in the same First Grade class. The Players in this production are: Alexa Davidson, Connor Francis, Caitlyn Fugate, Ramsey Hall, Seth Lewis, Elly Morris, Skyanne Slone, and Sarah Torres.
