Commercial: CU of GA STORY 1: Bascomb Elementary School Earns Top Award from Safety Organization Bascomb Elementary School has been awarded the Partner of the Year Award for the West Georgia region by Safe Routes to School, as announced by the Cherokee County School District. This recognition celebrates Bascomb's efforts in promoting safe walking and biking among students while fostering healthy and active lifestyles. Safe Routes to School, a statewide nonprofit, awarded only four regional honors across Georgia, highlighting Bascomb's exceptional commitment to community safety, reducing traffic, and encouraging sustainable transportation. This accolade adds to Bascomb's previous achievements, including multiple Gold Awards from the organization, under the leadership of Principal Carolyn Daugherty. STORY 2: Man Charged With Stealing $4,500 From Disabled Cherokee County Woman Flint Witt, a 58-year-old man from Dallas, Georgia, has been indicted by a Cherokee County grand jury for allegedly stealing approximately $4,500 from a disabled woman. The charges include robbery by sudden snatching, exploitation and intimidation of a disabled adult, and theft by taking. Witt, who was hired as a handyman, purportedly entered the woman's home under false pretenses and took the money from her kitchen countertop. The incident occurred on April 11, 2023, in southwest Cherokee County, and Witt reportedly fled the scene without attempting to return the money or contact the woman. He was arrested on January 17 and released on a $4,875 bond the same day, according to authorities. STORY 3: Seven Arrows in Woodstock Closing Doors After Nearly 24 Years After nearly 24 years, Cheryl West is reluctantly closing Seven Arrows, her beloved Native American art gallery and shop on Woodstock’s Main Street. Citing a significant rent increase, West, driven by her lifelong passion for Native American cultures, decided to shut down the store. Despite not having Native American heritage herself, she opened Seven Arrows in 2000, inspired by the book "Seven Arrows" by Hyemeyohsts Storm. The shop, known for its artifacts and jewelry from across the United States but not specifically Georgia tribes, will close alongside Diversified Mortgage Services, operated by her husband. Iconic items like large concrete cactuses displayed outside the shop are now for sale at discounted prices until the final closure, after which remaining items may be sold online or donated. West, reflecting on her unexpected retirement, expressed gratitude for her loyal customers and the memorable journey with Seven Arrows.
