1. HandsOn Northeast Georgia

Community Connection's service wing urges Athenians to make MLK day (that's today) a day on, not a day off, with volunteer opportunies galore.

2. Rebecca Ballard

"What's the phrase: 'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'? Well, a parent who loses a favorite storytime host takes it up a notch," wrote Flagpole's Kristen Morales about this very weird ACC library drama.
