โ€œWe Remember!โ€ Is the message today as Pickens County remembers 9/11, 25 years later.

Thank you to our public service members, veterans, and active military for putting it all on the line for their communities, and for America. Many made the decision to serve after the towers fell.

A huge moment of pride for our veterans and everyone who calls Pickens County home. Today, Pickens County Veteranโ€™s Hall held its ribbon-cutting ceremony. Using a bayonet to cut the ribbon, the Veteranโ€™s Hall is officially opening its doors to support veterans throughout our community.

The American Legion, VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars), DAV (Disabled American Veterans), and the Marine Corps League have all worked tirelessly to make this vision a reality.

Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, and played a part in making this possible. This is truly a shining star for our community as a whole.

A strong veterans community make for a strong town.

This is John, and Iโ€™ve been looking for a hat to replace my old Condor Operatorโ€™s Hats that Iโ€™ve worn for years. I think Iโ€™ve finally found one that will fit my rather large head and I found it at one of my favorite stores, Hinton Milling!

This ball cap is locally made by Copper Nickel Engraving & Graphics. I really like the fit, and itโ€™s even wife-approved!

Thanks, Hinton Milling. Yโ€™all never disappoint!

After seeing a mom and her four young children at Peace Park two Wednesdays in a row and hearing what sounded like worship music, our curiosity got the best of us. We wanted to find out what they were all about.

Once we made a brief introduction, we asked, โ€œWhy are you out here singing?โ€

The reply from Arianne Davis was genuine. She explained that she is there singing music to set a tone, set a spiritual presence, and to worship in Jasper.

Later in our conversation, Arianne shared that she belongs to a Facebook group called Adopt a Park and Pray. Their goal is for Christian churches and families to adopt a park where they pray over, read Scripture over, and teach their families how to follow Jesus at public parks.

Arianne and her four very polite children have adopted Peace Park to do just that. With a small speaker, a guitar, and their voices, they sing praise and worship music to glorify Jesus.

If youโ€™re in Downtown Jasper on a Wednesday, stop by and say hello. Give them some encouragement and maybe even take a moment to pray with them.

As many of you have already experienced, the GDOT contractor has rerouted traffic onto the new temporary bridge on Hwy. 136.

According to GDOTโ€™s website, the project is currently 48.65% complete. Work still remains to construct the permanent bridge and remove the temporary bridge.

The current scheduled completion date remains March 31, 2027, and the project is still on schedule.

Interesting week in the Jasper, GA News group. From education, to faith and family, to Jeepfest. There was plenty to talk about.

One post that drew quite a bit of conversation came from Hunter, who shared a first-grade worksheet belonging to his niece. His question was pretty straightforward: โ€œIโ€™m 24 and have no idea what this is even asking, let alone how they are right.โ€

The worksheet asks students to identify words based on vowel sounds, but by the reaction, plenty of adults were ready to go back to school themselves. Is this just the way phonics is taught now, or are we making first grade a little more complicated than it used to be? Either way, Hunterโ€™s post definitely made conversation.

Another post that drew a tremendous amount of attention came from Brian Rittenberry, sharing an update about Meganโ€™s cancer journey. The post brought encouraging news about her latest scans, along with a heartfelt request for continued prayer as she moves forward with chemotherapy and radiation.

Brianโ€™s message was filled with faith, gratitude, and hope. Sometimes social media gets criticized for what it brings out in people, but posts like this remind us of what it can do at its best.

And then there was Dwight Barnettโ€™s simple observation, โ€œJeeps everywhere!โ€

If youโ€™ve spent any time around Jasper lately, you know exactly what he means. With Jeepfest, they seem to be everywhere you look. Dwightโ€™s photo of a customized Jeep got peopleโ€™s attention.

These posts may have been completely different, but they all had one thing in common:

They got Jasper talking.

Thatโ€™s what makes the Jasper, GA News group interesting. Itโ€™s not just news. Itโ€™s questions, concerns, celebrations, opinions, recommendations, laughter, and sometimes a whole lot of Jeeps.

Whatโ€™s been on your mind this week? Post it.
