Good afternoon Oconee County:
Just a quick reminder that this Saturday is the day to participate in the Great American Cleanup in Oconee County - starting at 9 am at the Oconee County Library in Watkinsville.
We are so fortunate to live in such a wonderful place with rolling green hills, a pastoral setting, and small town charm.  However, as you travel the roads of Oconee County, you have likely noticed that we have a growing problem plaguing our beautiful community:  Litter.

I would like to issue a person invitation on behalf of KOCBC.  May 10th is our annual Great American Clean Up in Oconee County and they need your help.
You can make a big difference.  Please consider participating in one of the following ways:

·       Get a volunteer team together for this Saturday's clean up event.  It's a few hours of community service on a beautiful Saturday morning outdoors and with great results.  KOCBC really needs your help because a big turnout will show how important the issue of litter really is.
·        Donate a cash prize or gift certificate so that KOCBC can offer prizes to its wonderful volunteers.
·        Become a supporter of KOCBC's Youth Advisory Council, the Clean Community Coalition and their plan for LITTER FREE OCONEE.
·        Participate in KOCBC and other programs such as Adopt-A-Spot,  Adopt-A-Mile, Rivers Alive, etc. and/or recycle within your homes and businesses.
KOCBC's five year goal, one that will be greatly publicized, is to create a LITTER FREE OCONEE – a plan that we hope will be a model for counties all over the state and across the nation.  Just imagine.....no more litter.  Thank You For Making An Effort To Make A Difference In Your Community.
E-mail gacoconee@gmail.com mailto: gacoconee@gmail.com or phone 706-769-5120 for more information.
 Sincerely,
Melvin Davis
Chairman, Oconee County Board of Commissioners

Jeff Dantzler's arrests may be the best thing that ever happened to him

THis has next to nothing to do with Oconee County with the possible exception of the location of his former office, but a former colleague of mine on the radio got popped today for four counts. Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler. Jeff and I are pretty much diametrically opposed poltically, but today he was arrested on four counts including DUI. I hope he gets the help he needs following his incarceration. I work for a lawyer who could help him out if he does not having someone already representing him. This man is a great broadcaster and I hope this arrest serves as a wake-up call for him and his rock and roll lifestyle. I live a far from perfect life myself but long ago and far away I learned how and when not to drink. Now we will be without he dulcet tones on Lady Bulldog broadcasts as well as on Georgia baseball games and also on the after
