Mt. de Sales senior Wil Summers signed a golf scholarship with ABAC Thursday afternoon.

Summers earned All-Region honors earlier this week at Houston Lake Country Club and helped the Cavaliers to a second place finish which qualified the team for the State Tournament next month at Jekyll Island.

He wants to pursue a career in Agriculture with an emphasis on Turf Management.

ABAC coaches say Summers will fit in nicely with their squad as they puruse a National Championship.

Sooooo…. Where were we?

Oh yeah! Following my busy weekend last week, On Tuesday me and my kids packed the remainder of our camping gear, gassed up and headed out for High Falls State Park. We arrived shortly after 10 and quickly set up our camp.

Carly was very excited as this was her first excursion to the great outdoors all night! She wanted to do everything right NOW! We gathered some firewood for later on for marshmallow roasting. We took a hike near the rocks that were once used to wash and preserve the scalps of the settlers that attempted to move them as trophies. I love to see the look of amazement in her eyes when taking in the beauty of God’s works.

Macon Mayor Robert Reichert has vetoed a city anti-smoking ordinance passed by the city council last week.

The rules would ban smoking in most Macon public buildings, including bars and restaurants.

But in a statement released Thursday afternoon, Reichert said the rules are too broad -- banning smoking in public parks and other outdoor spaces -- and that opponents didn't get enough chance to speak out.

Rather than try to override his veto, Reichert urged the council to pass an improved version of the ordinance, and to work with Bibb County to pass similar rules.

The council passed the proposed ordinance on April 19 by a 9-6 vote. They'd need 10 votes to override a veto.

Anti-smoking activists say the rules would prevent health problems by reducing people's exposure to second-hand smoke. Bars and restaurants said the ordinance was unfair and would drive smokers to Bibb County establishments outside the city limits.
