Young Leaders!

🎉 Congratulations to the 2025–26 Bardstown–Nelson County Young Leaders here from Bethlehem! 🎉

We are proud to recognize this outstanding group of young leaders who exemplify community, initiative, and promise:

Vivian Dye
Logan Fentress
Josey Hite
Ty Johnson
Brady Simpson
Makenzie Sinclair
Tatum Stone

The Young Leaders Program is a leadership initiative organized by the Bardstown–Nelson County Chamber of Commerce for high school sophomores across all four area schools.

Students are selected through a formal application process—including essays, recommendations, attendance, and resumes—and are intentionally chosen for their drive, civic engagement, and potential—not solely GPA.

Over the school year, participants engage in multi-session leadership training and in-depth community exploration. The program takes them across key sectors—including agriculture, tourism, government, business, health, workforce development, volunteerism, media, law enforcement, and civic engagement—so they can better understand, connect with, and serve their community.

The mission? To spark personal growth, deepen civic involvement, and prepare future leaders who are grounded in—and committed to—making a difference in Bardstown and Nelson County.

We couldn’t be prouder of Vivian, Logan, Josey, Ty, Brady, Makenzie, and Tatum. Thank you for stepping up to lead with heart and purpose!
