Lloyd, our Education Coordinator, has been on the move lately!! 🏛️
He recently represented us at Appalachian Heritage Days in Logan, WV. It was a fantastic day of making new connections, and Lloyd even narrowly escaped a run in with Don Chafin! 😉

Where should we go next?

A huge shoutout goes to CoalfieldDevelopment for an awesome Council Day! Lloyd spoke on the significance of the Nenni Building, many visited the museum, and we finally replaced the banner on the side of the Cecil E. Roberts Building.
