KENTUCKY WOOD EXPO 2023
Friday September 15th & Saturday 16th
Masterson Station Park, Lexington, KY
The KY Chapter of The American Chestnut Foundation will have a Display Booth at Spaces 20 & 21. Come by to meet us and to hear the latest American Chestnut news. * * * *
This year marks the 35th Kentucky Wood Expo, which has been ranked as one of the top 10 events in Kentucky by the Tourism Council. We are celebrating 40 years of the Kentucky Wood Expo also known as the Kentucky Logging Show which began in 1983 in Morehead, KY. An expected 3,000-5,000 visitors from around the region will be on hand.
The Kentucky Wood Expo will feature over 75 inside and outside exhibits and demonstrations for everyone to enjoy. Sawmill, pallet, logging, secondary, and all types of wood processing machinery will be on display along with a wide range of support services. Inside and outside exhibit spaces will be filled. Educational displays will also be present, and a number of groups will be available to talk forest management and the promising future of the wood industry in Kentucky. Landowner and Logger education classes will be conducted during the show on both days which will provide plenty of advice on how to properly manage forests and the many benefits that they provide to everyone.
Along with the industry exhibits, a number of activities will be taking place for the entire family to enjoy. Activities will include chain saw carving demonstrations, collegiate lumberjack competitions, knuckle boom loader and log skidding contests, monster log weight guess, craft displays and a silent auction to benefit Log a Load for Kids and the Kentucky Children’s Hospital. An educational program open to all students will take place on Friday, September 15th and a woodworking class on both days will offer a chance for attendees to make their own free cutting board.
Show your support for the wood industry which is one of the largest manufacturing industries in Kentucky. The show offers something for everyone. Advanced tickets can be purchased for only $5 by calling the KFIA office at 502/695-3979. Parking is free and entry to the show costs only $7.00 at the gate and $5.00 for children age 6-12 (children under 6 are free). The grounds will be open from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Friday and from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday.
