Lake Bogue Homa restoration efforts in Jones County
SUMMARY: Leaders in Jones County are teaming up for the Lake Boma restoration project, with a fundraiser aimed at bringing in new equipment and beautifying the area. Lake B has been neglected over the years, prompting a community effort to revitalize it with a new playground, welcome sign, and other enhancements. The lake is known for fishing and boating, but hasn’t seen renovations since the late 2000s. An upcoming bass fishing tournament is the first step in raising funds for the restoration project, with cash prizes for top anglers. The goal is to attract visitors and bring attention to this hidden gem in south Mississippi.

SUMMARY: As Thanksgiving approaches, Stew Pot Community Services, a nonprofit organization, is preparing to distribute 1,000 food baskets to families in need, surpassing their usual distribution of 300-350 baskets. Executive Director Jill Buckley attributes the increase to a rise in need and grocery costs. Volunteers, like Anthony McFarland, play a crucial role in helping those less fortunate, emphasizing the importance of community support and encouraging younger generations to engage in service. Stew Pot also serves lunch daily, averaging 200 to 225 plates, ensuring that local families can enjoy a Thanksgiving meal together.
