July 23, 2008 — Editor,
On behalf of the Carter County Sheriff’s Department Relay For Life Team, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone who had any part of any kind in helping our team to reach our goal of $5,000.00 plus.
I would love to mention everyone individually but I know I would leave someone out and I do not want that to happen. We had so many people who contributed, donated, worked, volunteered or simply “encouraged” us in our team efforts in this fight.
I would like to personally thank Vickie Salyers for her donation of six (6) bicycles to The American Cancer Society for fundraisers and for prizes for The Kids Walk. I want everyone to know that your help did not go unnoticed. So again thanks and hopefully we’ll see each and every one of you next year!

Questions about Hitchins school
I am a member of the Hitchins Preservation Society and have worked various events to raise money to renovate the Hitchins High School buildings. I was shocked to read that Mr. Isaacs had given the school to the Christian school group. It had been my understanding that he had given it to the HPS several years ago.

What prompted this letter was when a young boy said to me, “No wonder kids get on drugs around here, it’s so boring-nothing to do.”
