There are many events occurring so far this year that demonstrate community progress.  The first is the new Humane Shelter opening this Friday.  Also, is the Ground breaking for the new health care wing at North Georgia Technical College.

And did you hear about the Currahee Club being named to the “Rolex World’s Top 1,000 Golf Courses” list.  And how about the Stephens County Hospital named to the Georgia Trend Magazine’s Top Hospital List, that’s number #8 on the top “Small Hospital” list.
