Kids Art in the Park was a huge success!
This year was all about young creativity! Kids get to showcase their art, sell their creations at the Kids Business Fair, and even perform for the crowd. It’s a full celebration of young talent, where creativity shines and everyone is invited to come be part of the fun!
We appreciate everyone who helped make this event possible and look forward to next year!

Edit the circus like it’s a reality TV Show. 👀
The Kingdom of Wonders Circus brought something truly special to Calvert City this week!
More than 1,500 people came out to experience a show that was anything but ordinary. From start to finish, the performers delivered a professional and talented production that went beyond the traditional circus. They told a story, created memorable moments, and most importantly, kept the kids completely captivated.

We had an amazing time at the Sustainability Garden at Kentucky Dam Village, filled with fun, learning, and a whole lot of creativity. A big thank you to our wonderful partners the Marshall County Public Library, Marshall County Master Gardeners, and the 3rd grade class at Calvert City Elementary for making this event happen!👏
We painted, planted marigolds 🌼, learned about recycling ♻️, explored the walking trails 🌳, and created an Earth Day quilt! 🎨
We are grateful for this community effort to teach and inspire the next generation to care for our planet 💙 #EarthDay

More than 30 paddlers joined us April 1 for a beautiful evening on the water welcoming the Pink Moon, and yes, it really did have a rosy glow!💕
Thank you to KY Dam Village State Resort Park our volunteers and the Tennessee RiverLine for providing a fleet of kayaks. Sixteen people used the free kayaks, including several experiencing the water via kayak for the first time. ☀️
We love seeing our community come together for moments like this and we are already looking forward to the next paddle. 🛶 @tnriverline @visitkylake @kentucky_dam_village

We had a great time at the Glass Fusion class at the Calvert City Civic Center!
Thank you to Jackie from Funky Monkey Pottery in Draffenville for leading such a fun class. Everyone did an amazing job on their projects.
Glass fusion is the art of taking a base piece of glass, adding a design with smaller pieces of glass, and then firing it in a kiln so it melts into one finished piece.
We loved seeing everyone’s creativity come to life! #glassfusion

On Monday, Feb. 23, city officials, council members, and local leaders gathered for an exclusive VIP event to mark the soft opening of the historical horse racing facility at Marshall Yards.
Mayor Gene Colburn had the honor of placing the first bet, officially pulling the first historical horse racing machine lever and ushering in a new era of entertainment and economic development for the region.
The facility is operated by Churchill Downs Incorporated, a company with deep roots in Kentucky history. Known worldwide for hosting the Kentucky Derby since 1875, Churchill Downs has long been a cornerstone of the commonwealth’s equine heritage.
Marshall Yards represents a significant investment in Calvert City, bringing more than 100 new jobs to the community. The development has transformed what was once a dark and underutilized area along Interstate 24 into a vibrant and welcoming gateway for residents and visitors.
“This project represents more than a new entertainment venue. It represents momentum,” Mayor Colburn said. “We are seeing real community growth, new jobs for our citizens, and thoughtful development that enhances the entrance to our city. Marshall Yards is proof that Calvert City is moving forward, and we believe this is just the beginning of even more opportunities along the Interstate 24 corridor.”
The official grand opening of Marshall Yards is set for Wednesday, Feb. 25, at 10:30 a.m. The public is invited to attend and help celebrate this exciting new chapter for Calvert City.
