Youth homes, sponsored by the Georgia
Sheriffs Association, were discussed at
the Friday meeting of the Noon Optimist
Club of Summervifie-Trion. H.Y f-)lamlin

Sheriff’s Home Policies
(Continued From Page 1-B)
The children are allowed to
return to their real homes dur
ing holidays if they wish or
they can remain at the homes.
Sheriff McConnell said if
authorities find conditions in
the youngster's home change
so that it is suitable for them
to return home permanently,
they are allowed to.
The Boy's Ranch accepts
only boys at the present time
and has a capacity for 48
boys. The Cherokee Estate
serves both girls and boys
with a capacity for 36 children
and presently has 30 children
on campus. Both homes ac
cept children between the
ages of six and 14, regardless
of race, color, religion or na
tional origin.
CHEROKEE ESTATE
Cherokee Estate has been
co-ed since 1972. The family
unit creates a strong bond bet
ween brothers and sisters.
Prior to Cherokee Estate ac
cepting girls, this family bond
was broken in many cases,
The estate was, founded in
September of 1957 by a
charitable corporation
established by the court of
Whitfield County. Sponsor
ship by the Georgia Sheriffs
Association began in 1972.
The estate is located six miles
northeast of Dalton off the
Cleveland Highway.
The children live in home
environments with the capaci
ty for 12 children in each fgmi
ly group. The children live
with house parents in cottages
as though it were a regular
family unit. Each child has
certain chores they must do to
help around the house or
estate. These chores include
such things as mowing grass,
helping in the garden, tending
to the animals, cooking, clean
ing or washing dishes. The
children are expected to at
tend the church of their choice
and they attend regular public
schools.
BOY'S RANCH
The Boy's Ranch was
founded in 1959 by the
Georgia Sheriffs Association.
In July of 1959, in a conven
tion at St. Simon's Island, the
sheriffs voted unanimously to
undertake the Boy's Ranch
program as the association’s
major project. The ranch is
located along the banks of the
Withlacoochee River six miles
east of Hahira on State
Highway 122.
The ranch provides a home
for needy and deserving boys.
It is a real honest-to-goodness
ranch with cattle and
ponies . ..a place where the
youngsters can breathe the
fresh air of the open space.
| The boys also?ive in family
units with house parents and
are assigned certain chores
just as the youngsters at
Cherokee Estate are. They at
tend public schools and the
church of their choice.
The children at both homes
also enjoy a variety of recrea
tional activities such as swim
ming and baseball. In addi
tion, a gym is provided at
both homes for the
youngsters. The children live
in environments as near
‘regular family life as possible.
SUPPORT
The youth homes are non
profit ventures supported en
tirely by voluntary contribu
tions from citizens and
organizations interested in
the welfare of the youth.
All of the children's ex-
Eenses are taken care of by the
omes. The children attend
school through the 12th grade
and if they wish to continue
their education on into college
or a technical school, the
youth homes will also assist
them.
Kirkman gave an example
of a success storX concerning
one boy who lived at Cherokee
Estate. Kirkman said the boy
graduated from high school
and the University of Georgia,
Discuss Youth Homes
returned to Dalton as an ac
countant, and now serves on
the board of directors at the
estate. ‘‘That’s the key to the
&ogram. helping the youth.
e like to see results like
that.''
Sheriff McConnell said any
type of donation to the homes
is always appreciated. He
noted that the homes could
use such donations as money,
clothing for the youngsters,
