affects a number of teenage girls.
Hellmeister has entered an intensive outpatient
treatment facility in Gwinnett County. While 92
percent of insurance companies in the United State
recognize anorexia nervosa as a serious emotional
disease, none cover expenses for eating disorders.
Donations to assist Hellmeister should be made
out to: Homer United Methodist Church, designate

Ga. 30547. Gifts of any size are greatly needed and
deeply appreciated, according to church organizers.

MYSTERY TRIP
Homer Baptist Seniors recently took a mystery trip. Their journey took them to the home of
Peggy Etheridge, on Lake Hartwell, where they enjoyed a lavish meal prepared by associate pas
tor Chad Hope and an evening of bingo.
Reaching thousands of children.
Focusing on one overriding goal.
Teaching respect for our environment.
The NEW Waste Management.
Because today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders, we go out of
our way to help them develop a genuine respect for the
environment we all share. That’s why the NEW Waste
Management provides videos, CDs and other teaching tools to
help students of all ages understand how environmental
awareness is at the heart of what we do every day.
We show them how state-of-the-art engineering techniques help
us safely maintain and restore landfills into usable green
spaces. How we use advanced optical sorting technologies to
efficiently recycle plastics and glass. And how we transform
common waste products into uncommonly clean energy that
powers homes and businesses.
We partner with communities all across North America to
educate students about our environment and the steps we are
taking to safeguard it for generations to come. It’s another way
we’re making a difference. One community at a time.
From everyday collection to environmental protection, look to
the NEW Waste Management.
