 Life is good all this month at Appalachian Wireless. Get the LG G5 for just one penny with sign-up or renewal of a two-year service agreement. That's almost $100 off the regular price. Better service, bigger savings. That's today's Appalachian Wireless. Big Sandy Community and Technical College hosted a Get Together Multicultural Symposium today on the Prestonsburg campus. Eastern Kentucky is a melting pot of diversity. Today was a day to celebrate, learn and understand all the different cultures our area has to offer. It is about local culture as well as understanding, gaining a better understanding of who we are and our immigrant population at the turn of the century and about inclusivity as well as visibility and establishing commonalities among people in Eastern Kentucky. The event was free and open to the public. It featured keynote speakers, panel discussions and presentations throughout the day. What's exciting about this event is we are exploring global perspectives, differences in religions, differences in ethnicities as well as our local heritage as it relates to coal and where we want to see progress made in Eastern Kentucky. Officials say a key part of the event was awareness. Coming together and having that dialogue is essential because we want to plan. We want to plan for our future, where we want to go and to be more precise about that. The event was hosted by the Diversity Committee at Big Sandy.
