Dear Friend,  Before we jump into the good news stories of the week, I want to wish Simon Britt of Campbellton a happy belated 100th birthday! Mr. Britt is a lifelong farmer and fisherman who served in the U.S. Department of Agriculture. He’s also contributed a great deal to Jackson County. We’ve been very fortunate to have him for a whole century!  Here are some good news stories to add a little more sunshine to your week --  Kayson Hawkins of Vernon, Florida won First Place in the Annual Essay Contest hosted by the Florida League of Cities and the Florida League of Mayors. The topic of the essay contest was “If I were Mayor for the day…” Kayson focused his essay on infrastructure improvements and economic growth.

From there, the gathering of 246 veterans boarded 105 boats to sail the waters of the Steinhatchee River, reeling in fish and finishing off the excursion with a chicken-and-rice dinner.
