McDONOUGH â In just a few days, children will again run and dip their toes into the cold water spring flowing through this hallowed piece of land in McDonough. Many children will be playing in that same natural spring where their ancestors once drew water for drinking and cooking during what became, for some, the highlight of the year. And like those generations before them, children and their families this year will hear preachers talk about Godâs love, forgiveness and salvation during camp meeting at the historic Shingleroof.
As Henry County celebrates its 200th anniversary, 2021âs Shingleroof is being called by organizers the Henry County Bicentennial Campmeeting.

For local Realtor Valerie Torelli, celebrating Easter in Costa Mesa is usually cause for mass egg-citement.
That’s because, since she opened Torelli Realty in the city’s Mesa Verde neighborhood in 1986, the business has sponsored a number of community events, most notably Costa Mesa’s annual “Torelli Realty Egg-Citement Easter” celebration.
The springtime spectacle typically draws upward of 500 people to Tanager Park with a dizzying array of activities, from train rides to bounce houses to egg hunts for kids big and little that register on the scale of chaos somewhere between “mad dash” and “absolute free-for-all.”
“Bands would play, schools would participate. We’d have the Easter bunny,” Torelli recalled in an interview. “It started out small but then we just took over the whole park.”
