agree email: comments: I agree with the blogger regarding the cc hearld. It looks like they could some
interesting news. I don't thing tthey have a reporter that goes out. They only use what comes to them. . comments:
Boots Dinkins did not work full time. Out the door at 11:30! Too many grandchildren to babysit to work full time. LOL! . comments:
seeking out minorities is a form of racism...seek out most qualified candidate no matter what color..but to put a preference
on hiring a certain color is wrong..getting a government job because of a program and not on ability is demeaning comments:
I don't know about anyone else, but I use to look forward to buying the CC Herald every week and catching up on the "local"
news. Lately, there isn't alot of news about Charlton County, lots of articles from other folks about general information. We
get the board of education minutes every once in awhile, very little school news (when in session) lots of ads. It
is very boring, to say the least. I for one, don't purchase the paper like I use to. comments: A few
years ago The asst.Suprt Dr Aurthur retired. Her pos. was never filled. Mr Dinkins took on some of her duties. He
was paid for part time but he worked full time. The asst super job was/is still in the budget. Dr larisey IS the
RIGHT PERSON for the job!!!!! Josh howard IS the RIGHT PERSON to run the HS. YOU can fuss and complain
but, THANK GOD you don't matter. I think more of the dirt under my shoe than I do of you who don't like the way
things are. The truth is that what is done is done for the best of the SCHOOL. If you do not like it
then run for school board. fullname: Re: Associate Superintendant email: comments:
If the jobs were posted for 14 days, then I was wrong stand corrected. Thanks for the info. I am glad they did that the right
way. Hopefully the right, qualified candidates got the jobs. . comments: The Board of Education
should not have to actively seek minority candidates for the Assoc. Superintendant and High School Principal positions. THAT
IS RACISM. If the positions were properly advertised, minorities should actively seek the positions. Then the most qualified
candidate should get the position. comments: If the Associate Superintendant and High School Principle
positions being open had been public knowledge BEFORE the positions were filled there would not be questions. I can't answer
for everyone, but I only learned of this when I read it in the Charlton Co. Herald last week that Dr. Lairsey was the new
AS and I have only seen on this site that Dr. Howard was the new High School Principle. Maybe I missed Boots Dinkins retirement
being anounced in a earlier edition, if I did that then I admit I'm wrong. It may have been public knowledge by word of mouth,
but I'm not in the know. Contratulations to both men. comments: You're all right about that good ol
boy system. I know someone that was told by the superintendent himself a few years ago that the hirings especially at the
high school is all about who you know and nothing about your qualifications. . comments: Hey,
whoever the anti war thug is why don't you go take up a collection from all of your liberal friends,buy your ass a 1 way ticket
to Iran, Afghanistan or Iraq and try and change the world there. I would be willing to bet that within 1 week you would probably
be ready to kill for a return ticket back to the USA. fullname: CARY HOWELL comments: HEY LADYS AND GENTS IM HAVING A YARD SALE ALL WEEK LONG, THERE IS TO MUCH TO PACK AND UNPACK. I HAVE
TONS OF NAME BRAND LIKE NEW GIRL & BOY CLOTHES. SCHOOL IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. STOP BY YOU WANT REGRET IT. I ALSO
HAVE WAY TO MANY BABY BOY CLOTHES. THEY RANGE FROM NEW BORN UP TO 2T. I LIVE BESIDE HOMELAND CITY HALL ON PENNSYLVANIA AVE! comments:
You are right, it wasn't Bethune Elementary, It was Bethune Middle. Everything else is correct. And how about
placing these so-called administrators in the classroom? . comments: You are right, it wasn't
Bethune Elementary, It was Bethune Middle. Everything else is correct. And how about placing these so-called administrators
in the classroom? . comments: Why does CC have so many churches? I'm really confused and I
actually thought about organized religion, but I will pass. I visited First Baptist following a long 7 year vacation from
home with a friend, and boy did I sense some unfriendly stares after the message from folks I thought was OK. The minister
gave a nice talk, but nothing to ruffle their collars or jeopardize his position. He's a good man in the midst of evil, folks. comments:
Did anyone hear the new school is not completed and kids will be heading to St. George? comments: Football sign ups begin Monday from 8 to 5. Cost is $30 for children from 6 to 12. Please bring
child so they can be fitted for equipment. .
THURSDAY BLOGS

Cary Howell comments: hi i having a yard sale it is right beside homeland city hall tons of clothes there lots of baby boy
clothes and the are lots of little girl clothes comments: The assoc. superintendent and hs principal
may have been advertised for 14 days, but the good old boys had everything mapped out from the get go. How many applied? Who
all was interviewed? Were minorities actively sought? No. No. No. Take care of our own, boys, take care of our own. . Date: 7/29/2010 5:10:47 PM Subject: News at 11 Reports from Home Jobs |  |  |  |

of her and she ordered online an Key Wealth System. Before she knew it, she discovered her own step-by-step
secret to beating the recession, and being able to provide for her family while at her home with her amazing
three children. Step by step instructions below: ( This link will stop working by midnight ) Yours, Melissa C. Phillips comments: No Pain Clinic he passes Diet pills which
turn into money for most of the ones who gets them. IT IS CALLED SPEED ! He should be put out of business. Just like the other
diet Dr. They call themselves DR.... . comments: TRY BRANTLEY ROOFING COMPANY, INC. THEY
ARE ONE OF THE BEST. 912-285-4609 . comments: I wonder what the different is in the diet center
by Hopkins Gowen and the one by the courthouse? Everyone is fussing about the train cars, what about those two
Saturdays a month when you can't hardly shop at Rite Aid or go by the courthouse because of all the FLORIDA cars. Dont
Folkston folks realize the FLORIDA pain clinic folks are coming here instead? They are running them out of Florida,
but do we care, I doubt it!! comments: It is a diet clinic. . fullname:
concerned email: comments: Does Folkston have a pain clinic? Last week, before 5:30 in the morning, the
doctor's office near the courthouse had over 20 cars parked nearby, and dozens of patients surrounding the biilding waiting
for it to open. Is this a "pain clinic" or what? comments: Just so the facts are out there...
Boots Dinkins was never principal of Bethune Elementary School. In addition, both the asst superintendant and high
school principal positions were advertised for 14 days. The state website to advertise open positions is www.teachgeorgia.org comments: The comments about the rail cars must have upset some folks - because they are no longer
posted here. Wow!!!! The intent was not to angry rail fans or business owners who benefit from this tourist
attraction, but to emphasize the fact that there obviously are no City Ordnances to regulate businesses in this town. If
there are, they simply are not being enforced - DUH! So, if I understand someone's comment in response - we are
to forget about the taxpayers who live here, work here and cater to someone that visits our town 1 weekend a year? I
don't get it - why can't we encourage the business owners who have less attractive establishments to make their businesses
more presentable. I believe it would help their businesses. Is that such a bad thing to ask for the
City of Folkson? fullname: RE: Assoc. Superintendant email: comments: I do not see
why an Associate Superintendant (AS) needed. This county ONLY has four schools. Is the superintendant that busy? With a tight
budget, I hust believe that salary could be better spent elsewhere. (New books, teacher supplies, etc.) Heck, I bet you could
hire two additional teachers with that one salary. Even if the need for a AS can be substantiated, why is the job
just given to someone and the job not advertised? The same can be said for the High School Principle position. Why is that
position not advertised? I mean no disrespect toward Dr's Lairsey or Howard, but don't the school board have a responsibility
to make sure the right person(s) are chosen from a pool of possible qualified candidates. It also cuts down on the perception
that a good ol' boy system is being operated. comments: You go Cindy R! God Bless our Vets! . comments:
I don't know what the position of Assistant Superintendent does; however, I thought it was County policy now that if a teacher
resigns/retires they are not replaced; why was Mr. Dinkins replaced? Teachers are in the classroom, the Assistant
Superintendent is not. Why is his job more important than that of a teacher? Maybe we could send some students
to the board office to be taught by the employees there. comments: why are the blogs for wed off
(you tell me)webmaster . fullname: Dorinda Montgomery comments: Family Story Time Program tonite at the Charlton Public Library, Inc. at 6pm till 7pm. This program is
free and everyone is welcome. . comments: The most obvious thing about Folkston Ga is : If
you don't know what you are doing everyone else does ! Sad little town , never grew up. Always gossip,gossip ,gossip...
if you go to some other town and they ask where you from that is what you hear people say about Folkston.. fullname:
Kayla Kilgore email: comments: ATTENTION: my mother has brought home a kitten. he, i think
its a he, has a white/cream coat with a black tail and white paws. he was found around Cathy Stapleton's house down martin
street. he/she has a pinl collar with a bell on it. if anyone has lost or knows someone who has lost a kitten please let me
know by calling me or on facebook comments: I agree the vacated postion of Boots Dinkins
should remain vacant. Besides, it was created for him when he was displaced as principal of the Bethune Elementary
in the late 70's. I was a student and his sister Taska served as our UNOFFICIal principal. She thought she ran everything
at the school. BoE is a good of boy system, but I gotta givem credit for how they balance their budgets. We
have board members as dumb as the county commissioners and are too stupid to identify what's happening. The best
thing they got going is Pender. What they need to do is hire the next supt outside the system using a qualified search professional.
fullname: cindy r email: comments: to the complete DUMB*SS who wrote "may all who support this war got to hell", guess I
will see you there, or better yet, we will take a collection up and sent you on a one way ticket to Iran, Syria or China so
you can keep your opinions to yourself. MY Family has fought for YOUR RIGHT to have an opinion, if you don't appreciate it
then get the hell out of the USA
TUESDAY BLOGS
comments: Over
1 Trillion bucks spent for war. Why the hypocritical preachers aren't condemning this. WWJD? He will
beat those war tools into domestic policy for the good of the country. Now, i'm convince there is no difference
between the 2 political parties. May all who support this war, go to hell. Americans in power are evil
and corrupt comments: Charlton County already has less central office staff than most school systems
in the state, and that is with the associate superintendent's position filled. I am just thankful that no teachers
or other staff members have lost their jobs during this crisis. comments: Hey school board.Why did you
replace the assistance supertindent job,but still giving furlough days.Do we not have a full time superintendent.That position
could have freed up some funds for other purposes.For example,bus monitors.Some of those drivers sure need them if not all
of them.The bus radioes needs up grading,because what I have heard from some of the drivers,is that they some times can not
hear the other drivers even if they are parked right next to them.They also said the cameras on the buses needs up grading
as well.To me that is important because a students may some times lie but a camera will not.These are a few example,but I'm
sure there are many more problems that need attention.I am in no ways mad at Mr.John L. for no reason at all nor the Board
Of Education.I just feel like that position should have stayed vaccant until this budget churnch is over. comments:
I'M LOOKING FOR A GOOD ROOFER. DOES ANYONE KNOW ONE? IF SO PLEASE POST THE INFO ON THE BLOG PLEASE. . comments:

Two generous citizens have already promised guitars for our 7th and 8th grade students! Look for them soon in the
Charlton County Herald. Used guitars are fine, but if you would like to purchase a new guitar for our children,
go to www.guitarcenter.com and search for Yamaha CS40(119.99) or Yamaha F335 (149.99). Your donation would be greatly appreciated! comments:

MONDAY BLOGS comments:
Folkston needs a restaurant that delivers, how nice would that be? comments: bend over tax payer your

tickets to pay for healtcare for workers. Otrher food service places are starting to do this. they ALL
will be doing this by 2014. obama care was not wanted by over 2/3 of this country. Please remember this . the dems

our military and does not respect the working man. he and nancy p want you the worker to pay for the dead beats
that want the american dream but do not want to work. Oh yes baby! we got change. fullname: David Batten email: comments:
I cant believe the stuff that is wrote in here... So many people complaining about what others are doing or have, reading
what this person said about getting up early to fix breakfast,, you must be a big bad butt its easy to hide behind a screen
make you feel real big dont it? How about you hush because your not bad you are like a little flea run your month on here
but scare to put your name ha ha ha ha get a life you grow up,, you made a comment about staying home and cook like the old
people did,, what are the old people doing up there then shut up comments: Might want to try bigger
bait for that hook??????? . fullname: Dawn email: comments: I have the
priviledge of teaching 7th and 8th grade students this year. I have taught these same students since they were
in the 3rd grade and need something new to offer them. Teaching basic guitar would offer the students a skill that
they could enjoy for relaxation and pleasure for their entire lives. I can meet the state requirements for this
subject area and let students actively make music if I can find enough guitars. If you are looking for lessons,
I highly recommend Clint Wilson or Robert Wilson. Jess Nettles is a wonderful guitar player as well. We
have a wealth of talented musicians here in Charlton County! Again, if you can donate an acoustic guitar, please
give me a call. You will make a lot of students happy for many years to come. 496-3247 comments:
Dawn - tell us more about the guitar lessons are you opening that up to the public? Give us some prices on the lessons and
when you will be starting. . Hi Jack Mays: I have been reading your history papers and when
you did the one about Mr. Billy Mizell I remembered when his deer attacked Mrs Mizell. My Father Jack Davis went to her rescue
along with some one else but I don't remember who. My Dad and the other guy put Mrs Mizell in a straight back chair and carried
her back to the house. You are right Mr Billy was a good man. He always treated my family with kindness.
I enjoy reading your blog. I never thought we had so many sore heads in Folkston, but it is fun to comment.
Thanks old friend Leon E Davis . comments:
