My first response in check… The gun show at the Ag Ctr today was filled with many male, female, black, white, brown, old, middle aged and young citizens of Chatham and likely surrounding counties, myself among them. Um, it’s OUR Ag Ctr too? BTW, if a bad guy with aContinue Reading

Students heading to college this fall
Joanna posted about one student in need, but I bet there are others as well. Maybe part of the back to school events planned in the county could include these students with postings of Amazon wishlists that they or friends could provide with links and the gifts would be deliveredContinue Reading
