Today we gathered at the Flight 5191 Memorial at The Arboretum to remember and honor those who lost their lives 20 years ago today in the Comair Flight 5191 tragedy.

Today and always, our hearts and minds are with those impacted by this tragedy. Our respect and gratitude also go out to our first responders and community members who acted with courage and compassion on that difficult morning and the days that followed.

P.S. 925 — save the date 🦋.

Next month, the city will celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Lexington Senior Center. From holiday parties and card games to art and fitness classes, the center aims to be a source of joy, community and connection for the seniors in Fayette County. Here’s what a few of our teammates have to say about the big milestone:

“Our senior centers are the happiest places in town,” said Kristy Stambaugh, our Director of Aging and Disability Services. “The Lexington Senior Center keeps the energy high, the smiles bright and the community thriving.”

Sean Wright, Aging and Disability Services Program Manager Sr., added, “Ten years strong — built on compassion, connection and community. Here’s to the people who make the Lexington Senior Center more than a place — it’s a place to belong.”
