The city of Corbin wishes to acknowledge and thank the Corbin Tourism Commission on behalf of the citizens of Corbin, the board of commissioners, city manager and myself, for their cooperation, fine work and many endeavors they have rendered to the city of Corbin.

Most citizens are not aware of what an important part the Corbin Tourism Commission members and their employees are to this area.

Additionally, the donations contributing to the beautifying of downtown Corbin with the banners, flowers and street lighting would not be possible without their help these past three years.

They certainly have added greatly to the pleasure of driving downtown. Rarely a city experiences the quality that their involvement brings to Corbin.

With gratitude,

Willard McBurney, Mayor

Memory of Bark Camp should be revived
I am the grandson of George H. Earls who was born in Bark Camp in Whitley County in 1857. His father, Thomas Earls, settled there in 1812. My father, Rev. Maynard 0. Earls, was raised in Whitley County. The town of Bark Camp Mills disappeared during the Great Depression. I’d like to revive its memory. I am also a published author, historian and professor at Wilmington College in Ohio.
