My Turn
  

 

We are into the second half of the year 2010.  Time to reflect on the first half.

 

It has been an interesting 6 months.  Elections, tragedy in many forms... and some good news.

 

Let's dwell on the good.  The county is nearing the end of a long process to determine where, up to $2 million could best be spent, to assist Bladen County.  A dedicated group of about 125 have met monthly since late 2009.  A final decision should be made in October.  The money is coming from Golden Leaf Foundation. Every person in the county was invited to participate.  Out of over 32,000 residents, about 125 cared enough to get involved.

 

BladenOnline continues to rack up good numbers.  We were also recognized as the Small Business of the Year by the Elizabethtown-White Lake Chamber of Commerce.
