Cullman graduate Paul Callan helps redesign schools he once attended

CULLMAN, Ala. – Architect Paul Callan is helping redesign some of the same school buildings where he once attended classes, including the space where he studied drafting at Cullman High School. Callan, a 1989 Cullman High graduate, is a senior project manager at Hoover-based Lathan McKee Architects. His work with Cullman City Schools includes renovations at Cullman Middle School, the new Cullman Intermediate School at the former West Elementary campus and the STEM and Career Tech Center at Cullman High. Callan attended East Elementary and Cullman Middle School before graduating from Cullman High and earning an architecture degree from Auburn University. His return to the district began when Superintendent Kyle Kallhoff and the school board selected his firm to work on the Cullman Middle School renovation. “It was a school I had attended many years before, and it was virtually unchanged from the classrooms where I was taught, the locker-lined hallways I had roamed and the gymnasium where I had played,” Callan said. A campus tour brought back memories but also revealed the need to update the facilities. The project replaced outdated spaces and added classrooms and other amenities while working within the existing campus. Callan said his experience on

Baileyton’s Harvest at the Park brings a Stars Hollow kind of magic to Cullman County

BAILEYTON, Ala. – Some towns hold festivals. Baileyton, it turns out, holds its people close. On Saturday, Oct. 31, Baileyton Town Park filled with hay bales and painted pumpkins, bounce houses and classic cars, sack races and sunflowers for the town’s first-ever Harvest at the Park. Neighbors wandered between vendor tents. Children raced from the merry-go-round to the Fun Zone. A principal took the plunge in a dunk tank for a good cause. And as the sun went down, the trunks opened and the candy came out. For anyone walking in for the first time, it felt a little like stepping into a storybook town, the kind of place where everybody knows your name and the whole community turns out for every season. That was exactly the point. Finding Stars Hollow in Baileyton When Baileyton Council members Kaleigha Fitch and Taran Garrison sat down to plan the town’s first Harvest at the Park, they shared the same vision: they wanted it to feel like Stars Hollow, the fictional hometown from the TV show “Gilmore Girls,” famous for its cozy town square, its quirky traditions and the way the whole community shows up for one another. They had just two months
