Their first book, *Hope the Butterfly Wants to Go*, focuses on core vocabulary, while their upcoming release, *Hank the Slug Wants to Eat* (out July 14), introduces adjectives and encourages picky eaters. The books include interactive elements to engage young readers. Inspired by their clinical work, the authors aim to empower children with language skills, emphasizing the transformative power of words. STORY 2: PSC approves Georgia Power rate freeze Georgia Power will freeze customer rates for three years under a plan approved by state regulators, delaying base rate increases until 2028. However, the utility can recover storm damage costs, sparking criticism from environmental groups who argue it shifts financial burdens to customers. The plan sets a maximum Return on Equity at 11.9%, despite calls to lower it. Critics also objected to the lack of public hearings, citing transparency concerns. Georgia Power plans to meet growing energy demands, including for data centers, by continuing fossil fuel reliance, with a related vote on generating capacity set for July 15. STORY 3: How to be safe in the water this summer As summer heats up, officials urge water safety, emphasizing life jackets as essential. Chris Purvis of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers highlights that 89% of over 4,000 drowning fatalities since 1998 involved individuals not wearing life jackets, with men aged 18-54 most at risk. The Corps’ “Life Jackets Worn…Nobody Mourns” program targets this demographic. Purvis warns drowning is often silent and quick, debunking movie myths of splashing. Parents are advised against using non-Coast Guard-approved floaties for kids, recommending safer alternatives like Puddle Jumpers. Life jacket loaner stations are available at key Cherokee County locations to promote safety. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.
