FRANKFORT, Ky. – (July 12, 2010) – Forest landowners suffered extensive damage from the 2009 ice storm and many are still left wondering what to do to restore damaged forests. In an effort to provide additional assistance to these landowners, the Kentucky Division of Forestry (KDF)—through a federal grant from the U.S. Forest Service—has partnered with the Kentucky Division of Conservation and local conservation districts.
The partnership has enabled conservation districts to hire contractors to supplement assistance available from the Division of Forestry. These contractors are available to help private forest landowners throughout central and western Kentucky. They work closely with division foresters and, like division foresters, are available to provide assistance to forest landowners at no cost.
Private forest landowners seeking advice on managing their woodlands are asked to contact the Division of Forestry office that serves their area. Either the division or the contractors will come out, develop management plans, and work with landowners to help them achieve their objectives. If cost-share money is available, they can help landowners understand the requirements and completion of the practice after the landowner receives approval.
For more information or to request forestry assistance, please contact your local KDF office or visit www.forestry.ky.gov.

CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. — Former All-State pitcher and Kentucky Wildcat Sean Bouthilette has committed to Campbellsville University for the 2011 season. Bouthilette, a week day starter and reliever at UK, is the 23rd signee for the Tigers’ recruiting class and first NCAA Division I transfer.
“I don’t think I’ve ever been as anxious to get them all together,” CU head coach Beauford Sanders said of his recruiting class. “(Sean’s) a good athlete. He’s definitely going to be a big plus and positive impact for us … When we talked to the staff at Kentucky, they had nothing but good things to say about him.”
Bouthilette appeared in six games for the Wildcats in 2010, starting in two. His longest start of the season was a March 30 win at the University of Cincinnati. He went six innings, allowing two runs, one earned, on three hits and a walk.
As a freshman at UK in 2009, he threw 17.1 innings with nine appearances and five starts. He tossed five shutout innings in the Wildcats’ second game of the year, his first collegiate start en route to an 8-3 Kentucky win. His only other win came March 17, 2009, in relief at the University of New Orleans, as he struck out two through 1 1/3 innings and did not allow a base runner for the 5-4 win.
Over his two-year career in Lexington, Bouthilette held a 3-1 record with a 7.64 ERA. He allowed 35 runs, 28 earned, off 49 hits and 11 walks. He pitched 33 innings in 15 appearances and had an opponents’ batting average of .345.
Before UK, he was a two-time All-State pitcher at Elizabethtown High School, where he posted a 1.07 ERA and 8-2 record as a senior and a 0.43 ERA and 10-2 record as a junior. Over the two years, he struck out 195 batters in 130 2/3 innings of work. During his four-year varsity career for Coach Don Pitts, Bouthilette compiled a 30-8 record and struck out 301 batters in 226 2/3 innings.
The former Elizabethtown star could also hit, leading the Panthers to three district titles. During his senior year of high school, he hit .346 with 11 doubles, three home runs, 18 RBI and stole 29 bases. During three years as a position player, he swiped 82 bases.
