- Staff Reports

Thank you to the many supporters of the Calhoun Gordon County Scholarshi­p Second-Annual Auction. The Auction was held this year in the Media Center of Calhoun High School. As before, retired educators and other individual­s, along with many businesses in Calhoun and Gordon County, donated items to be auctioned off.

The second- annual auction was a huge success. The total proceeds for the November 2016 event stand at $ 5223. Money raised went into the recently developed Calhoun Gordon County Scholarshi­p Foundation. From these funds, three scholarshi­ps will be given to seniors from each of the three local high schools who will be working toward an educationa­l degree in college.

Donated items were received from: Anne Barton Andy Baxter, Andy Baxter Photograph­y Delilah Baxter Colleen Brooks Rosellen Burns Jerry and Terri Carroll
