People Bring Empty Jugs To This Little Georgia Spring For Free Water Straight From The Ground
A small pipe sticks out of a brick building, and fresh spring water just keeps pouring out of it. Nobody charges a cent. People simply show up with empty jugs and fill them. Visitors have reported a neutral pH and low dissolved-mineral readings, although these measurements alone do not establish whether the water is safe to drink. I like how something so basic feels like a small treasure.

Roper Romp to raise money for William S. Davies Homeless Shelter
The American sitcom “Three’s Company” graced TVs for eight seasons during the late 1970s and early 1980s, and fans may recognize several Helen Roper lookalikes this weekend as locals dress up as the character during Rome First United Methodist Church’s Roper Romp event. Roper Romps are events happening nationwide, where a group gathers for a good time dressed up as Helen Roper. Rome First UMC Senior Pastor Rev. Valerie Loner describes the character as a fun, quirky and eccentric red-headed woman often seen sporting chunky jewelry and loud caftans. Rome First UMC is holding its Roper Romp for the second year in a row, serving as a fundraising opportunity for the William S. Davies Homeless Shelters . The Davies Shelter is a nonprofit that provides housing to men and women in need in Floyd County. The organization has two shelters: a men’s shelter that houses 16 men and a women’s shelter that houses eight single women and four women with children, with room for at most 14 children at a time. Along with providing shelter, the nonprofit provides residents with many amenities that many take for granted: hot meals, shower and laundry facilities, hygiene supplies, bedding, towels, internet access, computers,

Floyd County College and Career Academy students visit Coosa Steel
Students from the Floyd County College and Career Academy visited Coosa Steel on Thursday to see what working in a steel manufacturing facility might look like as they consider careers after graduation. The students were given a tour by plant manager Chance Highfield, a Model High School graduate who has been with the company for 18 years. Coosa Steel is a full-line steel service center on Darlington Drive. Started in 1972 by the Saville family, it sells bulk steel, the way a lumber yard sells wood products, and manufactures a full line of steel products used by almost every industry. “Right now, our biggest business is manufacturing and selling steel racks, mostly for the tire business,” Highfield said. “So if you need a mobile and collapsible rack, you’re going to want to talk to Coosa Steel.” During the tour, Highfield led students through the various buildings on the property, explaining what the machines do and what individual employees were working on. The company offers robotic plasma cutting, tube laser cutting, steel plate processing up to 6 inches thick, cold-cut steel sawing and precision structural steel punching, among other technologies. Several of the students studying computer-aided design at the academy expressed

Darlington outlasts Mt. Bethel in first-round playoff game
MARIETTA — In the grand scheme of the season, very few would have expected Mt. Bethel Christian to be in a position to host a state playoff game in 2026. But despite a 6-4 season in their first year of region play, the 16th-seeded Eagles were unable to defend home turf, falling 42-38 to No. 17 Darlington and its option-heavy offense Friday in the first round of the Class AA-AAAA Private state tournament at Arrow Field. “It’s almost impossible to prepare for a triple-option in a week, but we did the best we could, and I think our guys went all-out,” Mt. Bethel coach Damon Dawson said. “We were neck and neck as far as our (playoff) ratings, and that’s what the score reflects. In the end, there were some plays that went their way, some fourth downs we didn’t stop, and here we are.” Mt. Bethel (6-5) had no answer defensively for Darlington (6-5) as the Tigers averaged 8.9 yards per carry on 46 attempts. But in the end, one could point to Darlington’s special teams blocking an Mt. Bethel extra point and breaking up a pair of 2-point conversions as the difference-maker. “It’s playoff football in Georgia, so

GNTC graduate earns cryptocurrency transaction security patent
Computers once intimidated a Georgia Northwestern Technical College (GNTC) graduate who holds a patent on technology to make cryptocurrency transactions more secure. Evelyn Cronnon shares the patent, which was awarded in 2025 and utilizes fully homomorphic encryption, with two collaborators. Their technology allows cryptocurrency transactions to be conducted without decrypting private information or exposing an individual’s encryption key; the technology prevents threat actors from taking over a digital wallet.
