We finally got some nice weather last week. And perfect timing because Spring Football is in the air in Georgia! My ex-husband is he head coach at Cass High School in Bartow County. My oldest son, Connor, is an assistant coach there too. After a couple of weeks of practice, the Cass Colonels hosted Paulding County in a little Friday night scrimmage. Football games are one of the few times I can wrangle my family together at the same time. And before you ask, my ex-husband and I are still incredibly close (a little weird to some, but very normal for us). The two big things I took from the night were that I m so ready for football season AND flip-flops were NOT a good choice. The minute the sun went down.it was COLD!!!!!

He added that construction funding is in place, and Cartersville-Bartow is blessed with a state coffer that can .bring in some resources to continue projects that were long needed in the county.
From a regional perspective, all eyes are on the 2023 fiscal year. That is when the long-awaited Rome-Cartersville Development Corridor is finally expected to begin construction.
