United Bank, which was first chartered as The Bank of Zebulon in 1905, is a business success story and success in business – particularly in banking – requires great leadership. Today, United Bank operates 18 branches in Zebulon, Barnesville, Milner, Williamson, Covington, Griffin, Jackson, Locust Grove, Madison, Newnan and Locust Grove. That growth is the result of leadership and good business sense. [Full Story »]

Here is a free-for-all posting opportunity on sports: Trojans, Pirates, Dogs, Jackets, Falcons, Braves - you name it!

My brief thoughts:

The Trojans and the Pirates will both make the playoffs. The competition there will be much tougher than it is in Region 4AA.
