New ‘Heart of Rome’ mural celebrates community, inclusivity along ECO Greenway
What was once a graffiti-covered concrete wall along one of Rome’s busiest trails has been transformed into a 192-foot piece of public art celebrating the people, places and traditions that make the city unique. The new “Heart of Rome” mural, located along the AdventHealth ECO Greenway beside the Fifth Avenue Bridge, features a large heart filled with symbols representing Rome’s history, natural beauty, education and community. The blue-and-white artwork was created by local artist Renee Peterson through a collaboration involving Keep Rome-Floyd Beautiful, TRED of Rome Floyd County and AdventHealth Redmond. Hannah Bagley, program coordinator for Keep Rome-Floyd Beautiful, said the goal was to create something that represented more than the city’s landmarks. “We wanted to highlight what special things are between the rivers, and that is so much more than just a place,” Bagley said. “It’s the people and those who have built all these amazing things.” Bagley said she and Julie Smith, the city of Rome’s trails and transportation planner and a TRED board member, had discussed creating a mural for approximately two years.

So yes, at Barron Stadium in Rome Friday, there were onside kickoffs and fake punts. Only, it was the 7-2 Lassiter High Trojans of Marietta using these “trick” plays as a way of building a huge halftime lead on the 3-6 Rome High Wolves. The Trojans won the Region 6-6A battle 42-7 behind the passing arm of sophomore quarterback Caden Jones and his four touchdown passes among the 35 times he threw in the first half alone. In fact, 42-7 was the score heading into halftime and stayed that was through a running clock the entire second half. Lassiter also controlled the turnover margin with two big second-quarter takeaways, and the Trojan special teams not only recovered two onside kickoffs and converted a fourth-down out of punt formation, but it also blocked a Rome field-goal try. Throw in several 15-yard penalties that mainly went against the home Wolves and it was a rather miserable night for football amid a low wind-chill
