Commercial: THE STRAND 

STORY 1: Sawnee EMC announces a balanced rate approach for 2026 

Sawnee EMC has some good news for its members heading into 2026—most will see their monthly bills drop slightly in January compared to December. It’s not a huge change, but hey, every little bit helps, right? 

Here’s the deal: the Board of Directors voted to lower the Wholesale Power Cost Adjustment (WPCA) by $4.72 per month for accounts using 1,500 kWh. At the same time, they approved small increases to base charges—about $2 to $3 per month. The net result? A $2 monthly savings for most members using 1,500 kWh. 

For those using less energy, the savings will be smaller, but still there. 

Sawnee says it’s committed to keeping rates affordable and only making changes when absolutely necessary. Serving over 203,000 accounts across seven counties in north Georgia, they also offer energy-saving tips, rebates, and incentives to help members cut costs. 

Questions? Call 770-887-2363 or visit www.sawnee.coop. 

STORY 2: Northside Hospital Cherokee named one of the best in U.S. for maternity care 

 Northside Hospital Cherokee just snagged a big honor—it’s been named one of the nation’s top hospitals for maternity care by U.S. News & World Report. The “High Performing” rating puts it in the top 10% for uncomplicated pregnancies, making it one of only seven hospitals in Georgia to earn the distinction. 

Last year, nearly 3,000 babies were born at the Canton hospital, which also holds a Level III maternal care verification. Christina Roberts, director of women’s services, called the recognition a testament to their “high-quality, compassionate care.” 

Oh, and it’s not just maternity—Northside Cherokee also excels in 15 other areas, from cancer surgeries to heart failure care. 

STORY 3: School board honors retiring Chief of Staff Mike McGowan 

 After nearly 30 years with the Cherokee County School District, Mike McGowan is hanging up his hat—and the farewell was as heartfelt as you’d expect for someone who’s been a cornerstone of the district. 

At his final school board meeting last week, McGowan, CCSD’s first-ever chief of staff, was showered with gratitude, stories, and a few tears.  

Here is Superintendent Mary Elizabeth Davis and several school board members thanking McGowan for his service to CCSD. 

VO CLIPS  

From “hall monitor” to “everybody’s best friend,” McGowan’s legacy is clear: he made things better—for students, staff, and the entire community.

STORY 4: Names approved for new Cherokee High School athletic facilities 

Tommy Baker Field isn’t going anywhere—at least in name. 

Cherokee County’s school board made it official on Dec. 11: the new Cherokee High School’s football field will still be called Tommy Baker Field, while the stadium itself gets a fresh name, Warrior Stadium. For Cherokee’s athletic director Jeremy Adams, keeping the name alive wasn’t up for debate. 

The original Tommy Baker Field, home to the Warriors for 70 seasons, was named in 1958 after Tommy Baker, a student who passed away tragically in 1957. His legacy? Still strong. 

BRAVES:  Ha-Seong Kim is staying put in Atlanta—at least for another year. The 30-year-old shortstop signed a one-year, $20 million deal with the Braves on Monday, locking him in as the team’s starter for 2026. Not bad, considering he turned down a $16 million option just last month and walked away with an extra $4 million. 

Kim joined the Braves late last season, claimed off waivers from Tampa Bay on Sept. 1. He made an immediate impact, hitting .309 with a .372 OBP, three homers, and 12 RBIs in his first 19 games. Sure, he cooled off at the end—1-for-19 in the last five games—but the Braves clearly see his potential. 

Kim’s journey hasn’t been without bumps. Injuries sidelined him for much of 2025 with the Rays, where he hit just .214 in 24 games. But let’s not forget—this guy won a Gold Glove with the Padres in 2023 and has 84 career stolen bases. 

The Braves are betting on a bounce-back. And if Kim can channel his San Diego form, he could be a 3-4 WAR player. High hopes, but hey, the talent’s there. 

I’m Keith Ippolito and this is your tribune ledger sports minute. 

STORY 5: Tanner Place in Canton will soon welcome its first residents 

 Come January 1, the first families will finally move into Tanner Place, a long-awaited affordable housing community in Canton. The ribbon-cutting ceremony on Tuesday wasn’t just about opening doors—it was about honoring a legacy. 

Pat Tanner, the neighborhood’s namesake and a former Canton City Council member, stood alongside her 98-year-old mother, Ozella Tanner, as she cut the ribbon. “This is humbling,” Tanner said, her voice full of emotion. “We knew this city needed safe, decent housing, and today, we’ve made that happen.” 

Tanner Place replaces 39 old units with 70 new ones, funded through state tax credits, HUD vouchers, and local contributions. Mayor Bill Grant called it “money well spent,” noting it’s the first new public housing in Canton in over 50 years. 

CHA Director Jacquelyn Loberg said 18 units are ready now, with more to follow in January.  

This project is just the beginning—next up, the redevelopment of Oakside Drive.

Commercial: THE STRAND 

STORY 1: Canton Lions Club donates $6K to 'Shop with a Cop' program 

The Canton Lions Club stepped up in a big way Tuesday, donating $6,000 to the Canton Police Department’s “Shop with a Cop” program—a holiday tradition that brings smiles to kids and families in need across Cherokee County. 

Lions Club members Shawn Tolan and Marty Taylor handed over the check, and they weren’t alone in their generosity. The Laurel Canyon Optimist Club chipped in another $1,500 to help make this year’s event even bigger. 

“This program is everything,” said Canton Police Chief Marty Ferrell. “It’s about connection, joy, and showing kids we’re here for them. We couldn’t do it without these amazing partners.” 

STORY 2: New taco fusion restaurant opens in Woodstock’s Towne Lake 

 There’s a new taco spot in Towne Lake, and it’s not your typical taco joint. Towne Lake Taco Co., owned by Rick and Julie VanBuren, is throwing a grand opening party this Thursday through Saturday, complete with deals, giveaways, and a special-edition taco. 

“We’re not a Mexican restaurant,” Rick said. “We’re a fusion spot—tacos are just our canvas to play with flavors.” And play they do. This weekend’s exclusive? A steak au poivre taco with sirloin, greens, and a peppercorn sauce spiked with Grandaddy Mimm’s sorghum rum. 

Deals include free tacos, $45 taco flights, and $8 sangrias. Oh, and brownie chimichangas for dessert. 

STORY 3: Road closure planned for Cherokee Avenue in Nelson 

 Heads up, Nelson residents—storm drainpipe work is coming to Cherokee Avenue, and it’s going to mean a road closure. From Dec. 15 to Dec. 19, the stretch between 61 and 98 Cherokee Avenue will be shut down. 

Here’s the deal: if you’re at 61, you’ll need to head west to get in or out. If you’re at 98, it’s east for you. Signs will go up at Dogwood Pass and Hillside Lane to mark the closure. 

Be careful around the crews and equipment, and please follow the work zone signs—it’s for everyone’s safety. Questions? Call 678-493-6077. Thanks for your patience!

STORY 4:Chattahoochee Gold grabs top three finish at senior state championships 

  The Chattahoochee Gold Swim Club made waves at the Georgia Senior State Championships in Athens last weekend, with both the boys and girls teams landing top-three finishes. 

The boys snagged second place with 587.5 points, just behind Swim Atlanta (622) and ahead of Dynamo (505). Asher Cooper was the standout, racking up 90 points with wins in the 200 backstroke (1:47.77) and 200 butterfly (1:51.11). Parker Hebert and Jack Lynch also delivered big, with Hebert taking second in the 500 freestyle (4:33.09). 

On the girls’ side, they finished third overall, led by Ashlyn Loftin’s 55 points and Ariana Lutz’s two first-place swims, including the 500 freestyle (4:58.75). 

BRAVES:The Atlanta Braves just inked a deal with free-agent outfielder Mike Yastrzemski—yep, Carl Yastrzemski’s grandson—for two years and $23 million, with an option for a third. 

Yaz (the younger) has had an up-and-down career. He burst onto the scene in 2019, hitting .272 with 21 homers as a rookie, and even snagged some MVP votes in 2020 when he batted .297 during the shortened season. But since 2021? He hasn’t quite found that same spark, hitting .233 with 17 homers last year between the Giants and Royals. 

At 35, he’s likely looking at left field or a fourth-outfielder role—Acuña’s got right field locked down. 

I’m Keith Ippolito and this is your tribune ledger sports minute. 

STORY 5: Cherokee Chick-fil-As donate $155K for local charities 

 The Operators and Marketing Directors of Cherokee County’s six Chick-fil-A and Truett’s Grill locations handed over a jaw-dropping $155,000 check to the Cherokee County Educational Foundation (CCEF)—all thanks to the 12th Annual Cherokee County Chick-fil-A 5K. This year’s event? Bigger than ever, with over 2,700 runners and walkers showing up. 

It wasn’t just a race—it was a full-on celebration. Think Chick-fil-A biscuits, a petting zoo, balloon animals, face painting, live dance performances, and giveaways galore. Oh, and nonprofits got free booth space to connect with the community. 

The best part? That $155,000 will support CCEF and Cherokee County Special Olympics.

 Heads up, Nelson residents&mdash;storm drainpipe work is coming to Cherokee Avenue, and it&rsquo;s going to mean a road closure. From Dec. 15 to Dec. 19, the stretch between 61 and 98 Cherokee Avenue will be shut down.&nbsp;
Here&rsquo;s the deal: if you&rsquo;re at 61, you&rsquo;ll need to head west to get in or out. If you&rsquo;re at 98, it&rsquo;s east for you. Signs will go up at Dogwood Pass and Hillside Lane to mark the closure.&nbsp;
Be careful around the crews and equipment, and please follow the work zone signs&mdash;it&rsquo;s for everyone&rsquo;s safety. Questions? Call 678-493-6077. Thanks for your patience!&nbsp;

&nbsp; The Chattahoochee Gold Swim Club made waves at the Georgia Senior State Championships in Athens last weekend, with both the boys and girls teams landing top-three finishes.&nbsp;
The boys snagged second place with 587.5 points, just behind Swim Atlanta (622) and ahead of Dynamo (505). Asher Cooper was the standout, racking up 90 points with wins in the 200 backstroke (1:47.77) and 200 butterfly (1:51.11). Parker Hebert and Jack Lynch also delivered big, with Hebert taking second in the 500 freestyle (4:33.09).&nbsp;
On the girls&rsquo; side, they finished third overall, led by Ashlyn Loftin&rsquo;s 55 points and Ariana Lutz&rsquo;s two first-place swims, including the 500 freestyle (4:58.75).&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.tribuneledgernews.com/sports/braves/braves-sign-of-mike-yastrzemski-to-2-year-deal/article_21733ff0-a3c9-537e-8338-2257955d7bc6.html">BRAVES:</a> The Atlanta Braves just inked a deal with free-agent outfielder Mike Yastrzemski&mdash;yep, Carl Yastrzemski&rsquo;s grandson&mdash;for two years and $23 million, with an option for a third.&nbsp;
Yaz (the younger) has had an up-and-down career. He burst onto the scene in 2019, hitting .272 with 21 homers as a rookie, and even snagged some MVP votes in 2020 when he batted .297 during the shortened season. But since 2021? He hasn&rsquo;t quite found that same spark, hitting .233 with 17 homers last year between the Giants and Royals.&nbsp;
At 35, he&rsquo;s likely looking at left field or a fourth-outfielder role&mdash;Acu&ntilde;a&rsquo;s got right field locked down.&nbsp;

 The Operators and Marketing Directors of Cherokee County&rsquo;s six Chick-fil-A and Truett&rsquo;s Grill locations handed over a jaw-dropping $155,000 check to the Cherokee County Educational Foundation (CCEF)&mdash;all thanks to the 12th Annual Cherokee County Chick-fil-A 5K. This year&rsquo;s event? Bigger than ever, with over 2,700 runners and walkers showing up.&nbsp;
It wasn&rsquo;t just a race&mdash;it was a full-on celebration. Think Chick-fil-A biscuits, a petting zoo, balloon animals, face painting, live dance performances, and giveaways galore. Oh, and nonprofits got free booth space to connect with the community.&nbsp;
The best part? That $155,000 will support CCEF and Cherokee County Special Olympics.&nbsp;

Pre-Roll:  

From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  

 

Today is Friday, December 5th and Happy Birthday to Walt Disney 

 

I’m Chris Culwell and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal 
New Jersey Mike’s Subs location opening in Hickory Flat
FBI warns about rise in charity and disaster-relief fraud as holiday season ramps up

STORY 1: New Jersey Mike’s Subs location opening in Hickory Flat 

Jersey Mike’s Subs opened its doors at 6764 Hickory Road in the Hickory Flat community this Wednesday. 

From Dec. 3 to 7, the new location will support Every Link Matters, a nonprofit helping kids with KBG Syndrome. Got one of their special fundraising coupons? Donate at least $3, and you’ll snag a regular sub in return. No coupon, no deal—so keep an eye out for those flyers. 

“We’re so excited to join the Woodstock community,” said franchise owner Diego Rangel. “Giving back is who we are. Partnering with Every Link Matters lets us make a real difference—one sub at a time.” 

Hungry? You can order in-store, online, or through the Jersey Mike’s app. Delivery and curbside pickup are also options. 

The shop will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. For more info, visit jerseymikes.com or call 470-523-8055. 

Looking for a job? Email nico@rangelcompanies.com. 

STORY 2: FBI warns about rise in charity and disaster-relief fraud as holiday season ramps up 

 The holidays are here, and so are the scammers—because, of course, they are. The FBI is warning folks to watch out for charity and disaster-relief fraud, which always seems to spike after major disasters or crises. 

These scammers? They’re sneaky. They’ll pose as legit charities, relief workers, or even government agencies, using emails, fake websites, crowdfunding pages, or social media to tug at your heartstrings—and your wallet. Sometimes they’ll even offer cleanup services, demand payment upfront, and then vanish. 

The FBI’s advice? Double-check charities before donating, skip sketchy links, and stick to secure payments (no gift cards or wire transfers). Stay sharp out there. 

STORY 3: Walmart launches drone delivery service in Woodstock 

 Residents near the Woodstock Walmart on Highway 92 can now have small packages delivered by drone—yes, drones. 

Walmart and Wing, the drone company behind the service, kicked things off Wednesday with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and the first official delivery. Woodstock is one of six metro Atlanta cities chosen for the launch, alongside Conyers, Dallas, Hiram, Loganville, and McDonough. 

The drones, fully electric and weighing about 11 pounds, can carry up to two pounds of goods and fly six miles one way. They operate quietly at low altitudes, dropping packages to designated spots like driveways or backyards. 

Here is what Senator John Albers had to say about these new delivery drones.

STORY 4:  Wolverines perfect through five games 

 Woodstock basketball is on fire. Under third-year coach Eric Blair, the Wolverines are off to a perfect 5-0 start—already their best in nearly a decade. They crushed Roswell 58-34 before Thanksgiving, thanks to sophomore phenom Jahmar Maurice dropping 21 points. 

The team’s averaging 70.4 points per game, a huge leap from last year’s 57.7. They’ve blown out opponents like Blessed Trinity (by 30!) and edged out a nail-biter against Chapel Hill. 

With region play kicking off today against Creekview, the Wolverines are eyeing a championship. They swept the Grizzlies last year, and a win this week would be a big step toward that goal. For now, though, this team is rolling—and it’s hard not to get excited about what’s ahead. 

GA BULLDOGS:  

Georgia lost five-star quarterback Jared Curtis to Vanderbilt just before National Signing Day, dropping their recruiting class to No. 6. Despite the hit, the Bulldogs signed 30 players, including one five-star, defensive lineman Valdin Sone, and 22 four-stars. 

Key signees include local standout Craig Dandridge Jr., three top tight ends like Kaiden Prothro, and Colquitt County running back Jae Lamar. Defense was a focus, with edge rushers Pierre Dean and Khamari Brooks, plus safeties Jordan Smith and Zech Fort. 

Gwinnett County contributed five players, including Carter Luckie, continuing his family’s Georgia legacy. Coach Kirby Smart’s class remains strong despite the late shakeup. 

 

I’m Keith Ippolito and this is your Tribune Sports Minute. 

 

STORY 5: Cherokee County to form T-SPLOST citizen committee 

Cherokee County is forming a five-member citizen committee to keep an eye on how the county spends the $445 million expected from the new T-SPLOST, which kicks off April 1 and runs for six years. 

The Board of Commissioners approved the plan on Dec. 2, and each commissioner will appoint one member to the group. Their job? Make sure the county sticks to the approved project list and spends the money responsibly. They can give advice and updates but can’t change the project list. 

The committee, unpaid and open to the public, will hold its first meeting in early 2026.
