Commercial: DRAKE STORY 1: Around Town: Three Area Residents Have a Real Vote on Biden’s Future In Rome and Floyd County, following Joe Biden's recent debate performance against Donald Trump, concerns about Biden's energy and ability to serve another term have sparked editorials and discussions. Despite this, local Democratic figures like Wendy Davis and Vinny Olsziewski remain steadfast in their support for Biden, emphasizing his achievements in job creation, healthcare, and infrastructure. Meanwhile, as the presidential election approaches, the focus remains on upcoming conventions and the potential candidates. Additionally, local economic updates highlight job growth in the area, driven by new developments like the SK On/Hyundai battery plant, though concerns persist about rising unemployment rates in some counties despite overall job gains. STORY 2: Winners Club of Calhoun Hosts Summer Camp The Winners Club of Calhoun hosted a summer camp for at-risk children in Gordon County at the end of June. Activities included visits to Jumpin' Jacks Zone, swimming at Calhoun Recreation Pool, pickleball and splash pad use at Sonoraville Recreation Department, and bowling at Calhoun Bowling Center. Each day, participants enjoyed special lunches. The camp was made possible through donations from North Georgia EMC Roundup, Community Foundation of Northwest Georgia, local departments and businesses, Firehouse Sub, McDonald's, and community volunteers. The Winners Club, a United Way of Gordon County partner, is now accepting applications for the 2024-25 school year and welcomes referrals, volunteers, and donations.

Factors contributing to BER include low soil calcium levels, improper watering, and unfavorable soil pH. Prevention tips include soil testing and pH adjustment before planting, adding gypsum to supply calcium, ensuring well-drained soil, and proper watering practices. Additionally, applying calcium-containing fertilizers and being cautious with cultivation can help mitigate BER.
