By Joe Brady, Editor for The Times The Jenkins County Chamber of Commerce and the FFA program had hoped every graduate would be sporting the red cord. “We fell short of that this year, but there are 65 graduates in the 2024 class, maybe we can achieve 100% participation next year!” Says Mandy Underwood, Chamber Director. The Red Cord program is sponsored by Shepeard Blood Center. If a student donates three times within a school year, they can wear the red cord. If the student has been deferred and can’t donate blood, then someone can donate for them. Students have until May 31 to donate and still receive credit. And the good thing is, if you aren’t graduating, keep donating, the red cord will be put up just for you when the time comes. For more information contact Shepeard Blood Community Blood Center by emailing info@ shepeardblood.org. The next blood drive will be held at the Chamber of Commerce office on Tuesday, May 30 from 2-6 p.m. Front Row Left to Right: Abbie Bennett, Peyton Merier, Marisol Guzman-Rangel Back Row: Bryn Suggs (11 pints donated).

Free Estimates If you are entering the 11th grade this year when school starts back in August, guess what? It’s immunization time. According to a press release from the Department of Public Health as the Times was headed to press, “if your child is 16 years of age or older and entering the 11th grade this year, that student must have received one booster dose of the meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MCV4), unless their initial dose was administered on or after their 16 th birthday.” According to the press release. To avoid the back-to- school rush, the Jenkins County Health Department encourages parents to schedule the immunization with their pediatrician, GP, or the health department. Meningococcal disease is a serious bacterial illness that affects the brain and the spinal cord. Meningitis can cause shock, coma, and death within hours of the first symptoms. Getting vaccinated against meningococcal disease now will help protect your child against the ongoing threat of meningitis. As your pediatrician or local health department about other vaccines your child may need such as the human papillomavirus (HPV) series, tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis shot (Tdap or Td booster), annual flu vaccine, and other vaccines your child may be behind on such as chickenpox, MMR, and hepatitis B. For more information, please contact the Jenkins County Health Department at 478-982-2811 or your local physician. ossa csess vssm mnH heme® SsB'KSffl M mv, BOOKING LOG May 8-14 Douglas P.
