HOPKINS COUNTY, KY – At 11:30 AM on Monday iSurf News was on the scene as Bluegrass Pharmacy / Home Medical held a public ribbon cutting ceremony in honor of the business reopening in a new building.

Owned by Gary Russell, Bluegrass Pharmacy has been a very prominent business in Madisonville for almost three decades. Earlier this year the initial building that the pharmacy was originally housed in was torn down and rebuilt. The new building was officially open for business in July with a $3 million dollar investment by Bluegrass Pharmacy who has 40 employees.

The ribbon cutting ceremony was a great success with over thirty prominent local individuals showing up, such as the Madisonville-Hopkins County Chamber of Commerce and Old National Bank representatives. The ceremony opened with Chamber spokesperson Harriett Whittaker speaking about the business itself. Afterwards, Russell himself shared a little information regarding the Pharmacy’s history.

Russell and his Wife performed the actual cutting of the ribbon to a huge round of applause. Directly afterward the ceremony ended with an invitation for the public to come in and look around the store.
