Hands On St. Nick - A Makeover
St. Nicholas Family Clinic
1901 Kentucky Ave.
8:00 am - 6:00 pm
Come help us give this 20 year old organization a NEW LOOK! Help us paint, clean, organize and create a welcoming environment for our patients and the community.

Specific needs include: taping & mudding supplies, paint & artwork groupings, rugs, blinds & plants/interior foliage, soft fluorescents, baby changing station (x2), office organizers, L-shape desk, chairs, coffee tables, flooring – wood laminate & vinyl or tile, and volunteers.

Having served almost 7,000 patients since opening in 1994, St. Nicholas Family Free Clinic has made a significant impact on the health of our community and region. We are looking forward to giving back to the clinic by recruiting local businesses and volunteers to help lay new floors, freshen the walls with new paint, and organize the space for people to be proud of. Featuring JLF Interior Designs.

Kentucky Girls ROCK!

image Nikki and I are SUPER EXCITED about this new initiative coming to Paducah, 4-6 p.m., Thursday, May 6, at WKCTC’s beautiful Emerging Technology Center. It’s called The Kentucky Girls STEM Collaborative — a FREE regional forum for female students of all ages. So if you’ve got any or know any, please bring ‘em! Parents and business and community members are welcome, too.

STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, subjects I hated in school — well, we didn’t have Technology then, but I’m sure I would have hated that, too. However, if we’d had a cool conference with really cool women role models all around, I may not have been so intimidated by it all.

Check out the flyer and speakers:

Jennifer Rukavina, WPSD-TV
Jeanne Davis, Cooperative Extension Service
LaDonna Knoth, Marquette Transportation
Mary Pettus-Rowland, Pettus-Roland Funeral Home
Dianne Leveridge, UK College of Engineering — Project Lead the Way
Dr. Evelyn Jones, WellSprings Dermatology

Plus, Nikki and I will have our iList Paducah booth there to show how we’ve embraced technology and made our own funky little business out of it. We’re bringing Vera Piggsley, too, for photo ops!

Many thanks to the Chamber’s Business Education Partnership folks for partnering with the Kentucky Girls STEM Collaborative to coordinate this event. Key sponsors include WellSprings Dermatology, USEC, Kentucky Federation of Business and Professional Women’s Clubs, Paducah River City BPW, UK College of Engineering, WKCTC and Swift & Staley.

Again, it’s totally free — just register here.

See you there!
