Guess Who's Bartending at The Pasta House?!

Bob Hoppmann and The Pasta House have uncorked countless bottles of love for St. Nicholas Family Clinic, bringing in guest bartenders every Thursday night to help raise funds for the non-profit, which provides quality health care to working individuals and families.

Join me and some special friends Thursday from 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. as we pour, sample and sip for a great local cause. $5 buys you five tickets, one for each glass of wine that you choose to sample. Plus, half-priced appetizers!

Zombies Walk on Saturday

Hundreds of local zombies will haunt the streets of Downtown Paducah this Saturday starting at 5:30 p.m. for the second annual Zombie Walk. Don’t be spooked, though. They follow a strict zombie-code, complete with behavior, traffic and costume rules. Participation in the walk is free, but all zombies are asked to bring a nonperishable food or monetary donation. The walk will start at 9th and Broadway. Donations benefit The Family Service Society of Paducah, The Paducah Renaissance Alliance or the Paducah Zombie Walk group.

These lovely zombies recognize the importance to help our local charities and those in need, and want to preserve downtown Paducah's historic character. Loves it!
