Great conference
“This is a rave for Rodney and his wife Katrina McCray for putting on the conference out at the UGA Center. Special guest was Kinton Jones from Atlanta ... and various church groups that performed last Saturday at the UGA Center. It was a great conference. Thanks. You did a great job.”
Get it going
“Way to go, Blue. Why can’t we schedule a community pep rally for our Devils to show how many fans they have behind them all the way to the Georgia Dome? Let’s get the spirit going, not just in the game, but let’s get them going before the game.”
Crow a la king?
“Democrats take control of the House and Senate in January. Charlie Rangel will be chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. He says they, the Democrats, are going to hit the oil companies with a big-time tax increase so I am wondering how much consumers are going to enjoy eating crow when they pay more for gas at the pumps since they elected to put the Democrats back in control.”
Nice place
“I would like to give a huge rave for the Venus Grill. I have lived in Europe for nine years and have eaten in some of the finest restaurants that Europe has to offer and the Venus Grill is better than most of them. Not only is the food fantastic, but the restaurant itself is beautiful. Tifton is very fortunate to have such a nice place. ...Kudos to owner Tad and chef Blake.”
Halloween fun
“Ewing Nursing hosted over 60 children for the Halloween Festival. They had face painting, refreshments, goodie bags and the hay ride. The staff was dressed in costumes which made the event just that much more fun. At the end of the day, all the children left with a pumpkin. A huge thanks to Jason Ewing, the nursery owner, and manager, Nola Gentry.”
Thanks for your help
“I would like to send this rave out to Mr. Hall, who works at Bank of America in Tifton. I would just like to say thank you so much for all of your help.”
Stick to it
“I hope the commissioners stick to their guns to deny Mr. Goff and don’t let him put that trailer park in there, that modular home park in there. Those people have worked hard for what they have got out there...”
No. 1 surgeon
“This is a rave for Dr. Karsten and his family. I want to say, Dr. Karsten was a number one man and a number one surgeon. A few years back, him and the good Lord saved my life. This is Ester Harris. I would just like to wish and tell the family that you have my deepest sympathy.”
Support the ROTC
“I think we need more support for our high school ROTC program. These kids practice before school and after school to compete in drill meets all over and I rarely see any support for them. ...These kids have a great exhibition performance and it needs to be seen by all of Tift County. They will be holding their drill meet this Saturday the 18th starting at 8:30 a.m. and will continue the day until around 5 p.m. Schools from all over will be attending this meeting and Tift County ROTC needs your support.”
