STORY 1:Barry Loudermilk and Cherokee Leaders Praise Georgia Highlands' Impact

On August 5, U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk and local leaders gathered at the Cherokee County Conference Center to highlight the importance of Georgia Highlands Medical Services during National Health Center Week. The organization, which serves several Georgia counties, provides essential healthcare services to those without traditional coverage. Loudermilk emphasized the role of local leaders and community-driven solutions, noting the void left by past mental health facility closures. Todd Shifflet, CEO of Georgia Highlands, discussed upcoming renovations to expand services at their Canton locations. Challenges faced by community health centers, including funding and insurance issues, were also addressed. For more information, visit www.ghms-inc.org.

STORY 2:Woodstock Native Emma Hunt Advances at Paris Olympics

At the Paris Olympics, Cobb County-linked Olympians Emma Hunt and CJ Allen advanced in their events on Monday. Emma Hunt, a Kennesaw State student, qualified for the quarterfinals in speed climbing with a top-seeding time of 6.36 seconds, though it was later surpassed by a world record. She will face Indonesia’s Rajiah Sallsabillah in the quarterfinals on Wednesday. CJ Allen, a former Washington State athlete now studying at Marietta's Life University, advanced to the semifinals in the 400-meter hurdles, finishing second in his heat with a time of 48.64 seconds. The 400 hurdles semifinals and Walton High's Hampton Morris’ weightlifting competition will also occur on Wednesday.

STORY 3:Public Hearing Postponed for Mixed-Use Development in Pearidge  

The Canton City Council has postponed the public hearing on a proposed development in Pearidge to October 3. The project, by Pearidge Land Investments, LLC, includes 196 single-family homes, 32 townhomes, and a 1.4-acre commercial space. The delay gives the applicant time to address feedback from city and county staff, including traffic, infrastructure, and property tax concerns raised by residents. The development would cover about 70.72 acres, with plans for open space and adjustments to the site plan. An additional public input meeting will be held before the rescheduled hearing.

STORY 4:Funk Heritage Center Director Receives Gubernatorial Appointment
Jeff Bishop, Director of the Funk Heritage Center, has been reappointed by Governor Brian Kemp to a third term on the Georgia Historical Records Advisory Council (GHRAC). Bishop, first appointed in 2017, will continue promoting public access to historical records, enhancing archival preservation, and advising on record issues. He also contributes to the GHRAC awards and grants programs. Bishop, who has led the Funk Heritage Center since 2018, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to further serve and represent Reinhardt University on a statewide level.

STORY 5:‘Farmstead’ Community Coming to North Cherokee 

Reservations are now open for Sanctuaire Farms, a new 461-acre "farmstead" development in northeast Cherokee County near Ball Ground. This community will feature lots ranging from five to over 20 acres. The development includes 56 tracts, with prices starting around $42,000 per acre. Buyers can choose from a list of local builders for custom homes, with a minimum size of 1,000 square feet and a two-year build timeframe. The project, set to start construction in November, includes a 40-acre community farm with a garden, greenhouse, and educational resources. It aims to offer a simpler, family-focused lifestyle with fresh produce, community events, and close-knit living. For more details, visit www.sanctuairefarms.com.
