Duncan Center News

Scott New, Daniel Boone, Chautauqua was a tremendous success. A United Way of the Coalfields and the Heidi Badgett fund grant made it possible for the Duncan Center, through the efforts of co-director Shara Snodgrass, to take this program into our schools. Five schools participated by having Scott portray Daniel Boone for their students. More than fifty people attended the performance at the Duncan Center on September 5. Scott New was outstanding as he brought Daniel Boone to life for an evening show at the Duncan Center.

Director Peggy Gossett applied for a good works program grant from the Honorable Kentucky Colonels for a new copier for the Duncan Center as well as for a new track lighting system for the main exhibit room. General Jan Camplin, trustee to the Kentucky Colonels, presented Peggy Gossett with a letter of approval on September 1.

Shara and Peggy wish to express a warm thank you to both the United Way of the Coalfields and the Heidi Badgett fund and the Honorable Kentucky Colonels for their generous support of the Duncan Center and our endeavors to make it the Pride of Muhlenberg County!!!
