Welcome to Kentucky, where locals like to think of themselves as your first stop in the south and all the hospitality that involves. Kentucky may be known best for their green grass, thoroughbreds and bourbon, but the state offers so much more during your OT job assignment. That is not to say they shy away from their pleasant stereotypes. After all millions flock to Louisville every year for the pageantry of the Kentucky Derby and others make a pilgrimage to see how their favorite beverage is distilled in the hills of Kentucky at the Jim Beam factory.

Other exquisite activities and sites to see in Kentucky during your OT job include the beautiful state parks, festivals, bluegrass music extravaganzas and historical sites. More than 40 wondrous state parks dot the landscape in Kentucky, more than any other state. Festivals ranging from Civil War history to festivals highlighting barbeque and bourbon show off the versatile Kentucky events and activities calendar.
