Foundation History

 

During July of 1981, the State of Kentucky announced a series of revenue short falls that in turn resulted in significant reductions in state budgets.  This caused a significant number of layoffs, staff and service reductions in many of the agencies and departments within state government.  The state park system was one of the segments of the state structure that was most affected.  More specifically, E.P. “Tom” Sawyer State Park was significantly affected by these changes.
