P.A.W.S. joins forces with local businesses
It’s not uncommon to find an animal in the care of Public Animal Welfare Services with a unique name, but some of those names have become extra special in response to local businesses sponsoring adoption fees. “It actually started as a bit of a joke,” said P.A.W.S. Director Katy Walters. Since late September, several businesses have sponsored animal adoption fees, which led to unique names being assigned to the pets, Walters said. It began after humorously naming a group of cats OSHA Inspector, Forklift Certified and Unlicensed Contractor. This caught the attention of ComplyAuto, who loved it and reached out to sponsor those cats’ adoption fees, she said. “That’s what kicked off the idea,” she said. “Somebody liked it, so we decided to embrace the chaos.” They’ve since reached double digits in local businesses that have reached out to donate and sponsor adoption fees, paired with unique names for P.A.W.S. to craft. Interested businesses can either give P.A.W.S. a call at 706-236-4537 or swing by the shelter at 99 N. Ave. NE. Workers can connect them with an online link to make a donation to cover the adoption fees or they can make one in person, Walters said. “And then,

Costumed kids get hands-on fun at Chieftains Museum
Children dressed in Halloween costumes traded trick-or-treating for science experiments, crafts and other hands-on activities at Chieftains Museum in Rome. The museum is offering STEAM Saturday activities on the last Saturday of each month. With October’s event falling on Halloween, organizers decided to incorporate spooky-themed activities. Children created their own sensory bottles using water, oil and glitter, decorated trick-or-treat bags, made masks and experimented with thaumatropes, which create the illusion of two images combining when spun rapidly. Executive Director Camille McElwee said the activities were designed to introduce children to scientific concepts through projects that feel like play. “So, we like to tailor our crafts to be easier to understand. It’s something where it’s a lot of fun, but they maybe don’t necessarily know that they’re learning something in the process until after the fact,” McElwee said. Jennifer Bagby, president of the Friends of Chieftains board, said the event also provided families with an affordable way to celebrate Halloween before traditional evening festivities began. Admission was discounted to $2 for visitors ages 5 and older, while children 4 and younger were admitted free. “Everyone knows their kids like to be in their Halloween costumes all day long, and there’s not
