Directed By Joey Roderick
In this delightful, laugh-a-minute comedy, four unique Southern women, all needing to escape the sameness of their day-to-day routines, are drawn together by Fate—and an impromptu happy hour—and decide it’s high time to reclaim the enthusiasm for life they’ve lost through the years. Over the course of six months, filled with laughter, hilarious misadventures, and the occasional liquid refreshment, these middle-aged women successfully bond and find the confidence to jumpstart their new lives.

Trees down, but roads clearing in Union

News

BLAIRSVILLE, Ga. – Lieutenant Brent Long, of the Union County Fire Department, reported to Fetch Your News Saturday morning that crews are working this morning (Saturday, Dec. 9) to clear about 30 fallen trees from roadways throughout the county. Long stated there was no specific concentration of downed trees and that incidents of such were sporadic across the county.

Long added that the Union County Road Department worked throughout the night Friday and into early Saturday morning to treat and clear roads. According to Long, only three vehicle accidents occurred since 5 p.m. Friday evening, bringing the total number of accidents in Union County as a result of the weather to 45 since the arrival of Winter Storm Benji early yesterday morning. Long also reported that no fatalities or injuries were sustained in any of the accidents.

“We were very fortunate,” Long said of the lack of serious injuries to motorists.

As of 10:30 a.m. Saturday, isolated power outages were still being experienced across the county, Long stated, as a result of downed trees falling across lines. However, Long again described these outages as “sporadic” and not widescale.

Long added that the only road closure in Union is state Route 348 (Richard B. Russell Scenic Highway) and said he expects the road may remain closed throughout the weekend.

There was one house fire overnight in Union, occurring off of Fortenberry Road in the southeastern corner of the county. Long reported the fire was considered a total loss, but there were no injuries sustained. The family of the one displaced resident of the home is providing shelter and assistance to the resident.

Long stated cause of the fire is yet to be determined and local investigators are still working to find the cause of the blaze.

Panthers ‘Light Up’ Banks County 38-6!

TeamFYNSports, UCHS Football

 

Union County Panthers vs Banks County Leopards

Varsity Football

September 15, 2017

Location: Blairsville, GA

 

Friday night was a very ‘colorful’ night for the Panthers, to say the least!  Some fans entered the stadium in bright neon colors and others in their own football jerseys/cheer outfits.  It was a Neon Night for the UCHS Student Section and also a night to recognize the Union County Recreation Department football players and cheerleaders.  

With the game proceedings beginning, the roar of the crowd became silent when the National Anthem was played and the captains were listed off over the intercom.  The UC captains for the game were: #8 Cole Wright, #11 RJ Banton, #76 Clay Carroll, and #34 Bryan Nelson.  Banks County won the coin toss and chose to receive the ball first.  

The Panthers, determined to continue to keep their undefeated streak for the season, showed their enthusiasm and scored first off a 1-yd pass from #8 Cole Wright to #22 Austin Pattee.  The kick from #36 Brian Smith was good making it 7-0 Panthers with 5:31 left in the first.

Realizing the talent they were up against, the Leopards put it into gear and worked their way down field.  On their third attempt at the 2-yd line, the Leopards put up 6 against the Panthers on a rush.  The kick was absolutely NO good due to a remarkable diving block by Panthers #2 Chayton Schafer!!  

This would be the only time the Leopards scored against the Panthers for the duration of the game.  

With something to prove, Panthers Junior #2 Chayton Schafer decided to show off his wheels and take a kickoff return up field.  Literally … up the field.  Remarkably, he zig-zagged his way up the right side and nearly to the endzone before he was tripped up by a Leopard player.  He fumbled the ball BUT a fellow Panther fell on the ball in the endzone, scoring yet another touchdown!  14-6 Panthers with 1:09 left in the first.

With the Panthers ‘ready to eat,’ they wasted no energy showing mercy to the Leopards.  In the second quarter the Panthers scored an additional three more touchdowns!  Two of which were made by Senior Quarterback #8 Cole Wright!  Wright, remaining completely untouched and headed in the right direction (pun intended), scored his first touchdown of the night off a 39-yd run. 21-6 Panthers with 10:02 remaining in the second!

With an amazing interception by #17 Pierson Allison the Panthers get the ball on the 8-yd line.  

#22 Pattee with a complete short pass, made it 3rd down with 3 to go for the Panthers. With incredible feel for the ball, #8 Wright, spotted an opening on the left-hand side and dove through some Leopards into the endzone to increase the score to 28-6 with 3:06 left in the second!

Moving quickly through the end of the first half, Panthers #8 Wright manages to advance upfield after a 17-yd cutback.  Panthers kicker #36 Brian Smith places a ball high and through the posts for a 26-yd field goal.  31-6 Panthers to end the half!

#21 Sawyer Drake broke free from his defender and was hit with a beautiful 5-yd spiral in the end zone for the final touchdown of the game with 6:32 left in the fourth.  FINAL: 38-6 Panthers!
