KYIQ sponsors a holiday gift tree called "Silver Bells."  Joseph Beth Booksellers, at Lexington Green and Worlds Apart in Chevy Chase each hosted a 'Silver Bells" Holiday Gift Tree decorated with names of nursing home residents in Fayette County. It was a rousing success for Fayette Co, KY. We distributed 586 gift bags to 11 nursing homes in the county. It has been really heartwarming to see the beautiful gifts that people brought. Everyone is up for next year with improvements in our control system! Thanks to everyone who helped and made a big difference.
