The Forkland Community Center in rural Southwest Boyle County, Kentucky, was formed in 1971 after the Forkland School was closed.  The people of the Forkland community pooled their money to buy the school buildings and incorporated the Community Center.  Its dual purpose is to preserve and promote the rural heritage of this unique and scenic knobs area and to provide a facility for a variety of community uses.  Several events each year are open to the public; please come and visit the people down on the Fork!
