We are absolutely thrilled that Molly won a Stave Award in the Attractions category last night! It is so well deserved.

If you visit the park, you could find Molly welcoming group tours, being a tour guide in the mansion, helping businesses plan meetings, making dreams come true for a bride and groom, or running around working an event. No matter where you find Molly, you'll always find her with a smile on her face. We've been blessed with Molly's friendly personality for almost 7 years and that is something we're so proud of.

When you're visiting the park, you'll always be welcomed with our "Welcome Home" greeting. Molly is someone who truly makes the park feel like home. To know her is to love her.

So help say a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Molly on her Stave Award!

Congratulations to all the winners and nominees! Bardstown is such a special place with top shelf hospitality. Thank you to the Bardstown / Nelson Co. Hospitality Associations for putting on such a great event!
