Monster Jam provides a massive night’s entertainment tailored perfectly for your family’s budget, and these colorful, larger-than-life beasts are sure to capture the hearts of both young and old."

MACON, GA.--Ingram-Pye Elementary School students used special passports to travel the world on Friday, January 20. The passports, created by the school's staff, gave students access to nine countries featured during a Culture Fair.

"We're hoping this will expose the students to different countries because so many of them don't even leave Macon," Ingram-Pye teacher Anna Halbrooks said. "Maybe this will inspire them to stay in school, get a better education, and earn money so they can travel to these places."
