The Ark Encounter - Williamstown, KY
Monday, September 26, 2016
Join us and visit one of the most interesting, new attractions in the
U.S.! The new Ark Encounter is one of a kind, historically themed
attraction. In an entertaining, educational, and immersive way, it
presents a number of historical events centered on Noah’s Ark as
recorded in the Bible. As the largest timber framed structure in the
country, the 510-foot-long full-size Ark is designed to be historically
authentic. The Ark Encounter, as a sister attraction of the popular
Creation Museum, a Christian evangelistic outreach intended to bring
the Ark of Noah’s day and the events recorded in the book of Genesis
to life.
We’ve all seen pictures of Noah’s Ark in children’s books, complete
with giraffe heads sticking out the top. But, the real Ark, the one
described in the Bible was huge! It was amazingly seaworthy—a ship
that kept the occupants safe during a year-long, world-wide flood. Few
wooden ships have ever come close to the size of Noah’s Ark. It was
almost one and a half football fields long and taller than a modern four
-story house! Prepare to be blown away as you explore the life-sized
reconstruction of Noah’s Ark!

Smart Drive Course - AARP
Since 1979, AARP Driver Safety has met the
needs of older drivers through educational
programs led by more than 4,000 volunteers
and a myriad of resources; however, they
aren’t the same programs and resources that
were available nearly 35 years ago. AARP
Driver Safety has continued to evolve with the
times.
A lot has changed since many American
drivers first got their driver’s license. The
roads have changed. Cars and the technology inside them have
changed. Even the people behind the wheel have changed. As drivers,
if we don’t keep up with those changes we put others or even
ourselves at risk.
Participants are awarded a certificate of attendance for drivers 50 and
older. Please check with your insurance company for possible
discounts. Refreshments are served. Lunch is on your own.
