It was a great week at the 2024 BCBA Annual Conference, "Horses, Hoops, & High Spirits." The spirit was high from the opening reception, and our great speakers included Congressman Andy Barr and State Representative Michael Lee Meredith. Thanks to Kentucky's Mr. Basketball, Travis Perry, for speaking to the attendees. Scholarships were given, and the gavel was passed from Edna Hughes of Lewisburg Banking Company to Doc Meredith at Lincoln National Bank. We ended the conference with a golf outing and a unique horse tour. Community banking is alive and well in the Commonwealth!
