SUMMARY: Firefighters from across the state united to raise funds for Kaylee Randolph, a Wiggins firefighter injured in a fire engine accident on May 19. The fundraising initiative was planned during last week’s firefighter conference. Today, Chip Brown and Bo Murphy from the Forest County Fire Department presented a donation check. Despite initially keeping her identity private, Kaylee felt the community’s overwhelming support through messages, food, and love. She has gained a new family in her colleagues, who have stood by her since she joined the department. Tune in tonight at 10 to hear Kaylee discuss the safety measures that saved her life.

Kaille Randolph doesn’t want to be known as a victim. The 26-year-old Wiggins firefighter says she’s a survivor.

SUMMARY: **Summary (100 words):**
In this week’s *Behind the Business: Sugar Tribe Sweets and Events*, what began as a hobby for Ocean Springs’ Jennifer Mayfield has grown into a flourishing bakery and event business. Inspired by a cake she made for her nephew’s birthday, Mayfield launched Sugar Tribe through social media. Self-taught via YouTube and trial and error, she expanded from home baking to two storefronts. Sugar Tribe now offers custom cakes, themed desserts, brownies, cinnamon rolls, king cakes, and event services including linens and decor. Though cakes are her specialty, Mayfield’s creativity drives her growing success—alongside owning an urgent care clinic.
