At its heart, the Coweta County Fair symbolizes more than just exhilarating rides and tantalizing flavors. It stands as a cherished celebration of community, uniting neighbors and friends in honor of shared traditions and the creation of lasting memories. The laughter of children experiencing the fair for the first time intertwines with the nostalgia in the eyes of older generations, evoking fond memories of fairs past.

Notes from Perry Street

The Little Black Dress and I had just plopped down on the sofa for a little, as teens say now, “Netflix and Chill.”

The difference between that phrase and reality, at least in our situation, was we really were going to watch something on Netflix. And the “chill” involved a nice chardonnay. Anyhow, I turn on/stream/upload/ whatever one does to get Netflix going. Instead of getting to my “home screen,” a message pops up. As near as I can recall, it is something along the lines that “this television” (being the one we are watching), does not appear to be part of the Home Network.

That gave me pause. I follow the online instructions and Netflix again tells me I am not part of the network. I again pause, thinking - this is my home, this is my television, this is my “Netflix.” Well, okay, all that is true except, apparently, the Netflix part.

I do what any guy in his sixties would do …

“Hey dad, what’s up?” The Eldest says after picking up my call.

“Netflix is telling me I am not part of the ‘home network.’ Oh … and why is the account in your name?” I responded.

“I just did that when we set it up,” he responded. I then proceed to point out that when he “set it up,” he was living at home when he wasn’t at college. He is now in Texas with a new wife. Basically, he took the Netflix account with him … BUT … I am the one paying for it.

Make sense? I mean it makes sense what happened, but I don’t think it makes sense that he gets to take our account, the one I am paying for, and just make it his own.

“Well, I will take photos of the screens so you can see what you all had saved and are watching when I get back,” Caleb, that would be the Eldest said. “Listen, love you, gotta go get ready.”

An aside, technology is pretty amazing, like how your son can essentially steal your Netflix account. Furthermore, he and I were having that conversation while I was in Newnan and he was at Fort Irwin in California, sitting on his tank getting ready for war games.

Since he wouldn’t be back for three weeks or so, we bit the proverbial bullet and got a John and Corby Netflix account. Our very own. A clean slate so to speak. And that is exactly what I mean, because when we signed on, there was no “continue watching for John,” “because you watched …” “your saved shows” and so on. A clean slate, literally. Nothing showed up. How often do we get a clean slate? How often do we desperately wish for one? Take them when you can. They are a rare gift. It is July. The month we celebrate our nation’s independence. So between the hotdogs, hamburgers, cook outs, picnics and adults blowing off their fingers after one too many “watch this, hold my beer,” please take a moment to thank that someone you know who serves or did in our nation’s military. They are the reason we have a 4th. And that goes for you too, Caleb. Until next time.

Carol Moore, who has served as executive director of The Newnan Centre since, well, there was a Newnan Centre, is exiting stage left after 11 years at the helm. She said she plans to “hang around” Newnan. We want to thank her for making the Centre one of the crown jewels for the city of Newnan. Taking her place, whom Carol calls her “mini me,” is Newnan native Peyton Shelnutt, who has worked with Carol for several years. We wish Peyton continued success.

Coweta County - Did You Know?

Every month, there are many new employees moving into Coweta County. Recently, I had the pleasure of working with the Newnan-Coweta Chamber of Commerce and taking some of the new hires for a “Windshield Tour” of Coweta County. We took them to see many different areas and sites around the county.

One of the handouts provided to the new residents was a Coweta County “fun fact” sheet provided by the Chamber of Commerce. I knew many of the facts but there were several I did not so I thought I would share:

• Coweta County covers 441 square miles with nearly 150,000 residents. The number of residents has nearly tripled since 1990 and will reach 163,00 in the next five years.

• The average Coweta household earns $79,795 per year, compared to the state average of $65,030 and a national average of $70,784. The median income for married households in Coweta County is $105,846. The unemployment rate in Coweta rests at 2.5% compared with the national rate of 3.7%. Coweta’s population is relatively young, though approaching middle-aged, with a median age of 39.

• The largest employers in Coweta County are Amazon.com Services, Cargill Meat Solutions, Hello Fresh, Piedmont Newnan Hospital, Yamaha Motor Manufacturing, and the Coweta County School System. Others include large companies and organizations such as City of Hope, formerly Southeast Cancer Treatment Centers of America, Georgia Power, Newnan Utilities, Kason Industries, and Bonnell.

• With 23 international companies making their home here, Coweta County is quickly becoming a hub for global industry. Countries represented in Coweta include: Japan, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, England, Netherlands, France, Taiwan, Ireland, Norway, Canada, Austria, China, Israel and Italy.

Speaking of international, I also attended the NewnanCoweta Board of Realtors monthly meeting in May at the Central Education Center, in Newnan, where Sarah Jacobs, President of the Coweta County Development Authority, spoke. Sarah discussed FREYR, a global lithion-ion battery manufacturer. FREYR plans to invest $2.57 billion in Coweta County and add 723 jobs. Wow!

Mark Whitlock, CEO of the Central Education Center in Newnan, Georgia’s first college and career academy, also spoke. He shared how the Central Education Center is preparing their students for high-paying jobs immediately out of high school as well as the many programs CEC offers. More and more young people are learning skills and a trade, working right out of high school and forgoing the typical college experience. Many of the alumni of the Central Education Center were being placed into high-earning jobs for international companies. What a great opportunity for our citizens!

Piedmont NEWNAN

Thomas F. Chapman Family Cancer Wellness Center Provides Healing and Support to Those Affected by Cancer

has ever been diagnosed with cancer at any point in their journey. The program focuses on Five Pillars of Wellness – Exercise, Nutrition, Creativity, Education, and Relaxation.

Piedmont Newnan Celebrates Topping Out on New South Tower

Let’s Create Together, a crafting class. Everything’s Gone to Pot, a creative planting class, as well as One Hour Drummer, an African drumming class held during the lunch hour, are great opportunities to focus on interesting new hobbies.

Education is provided through a Let’s Talk series, led by Margarette Coleman, and the Oncology Support Group led by Oncology Social Worker, Shannon Wooten. Both classes give people a chance to discuss various topics in a group setting and form new networks of support.

Piedmont Newnan Hospital recently celebrated the topping out of its new South Tower. The first phase of this $65 million expansion project will add 80,000 square feet and 50 new patient beds. It will consist of three levels that will connect at the south side of the hospital and the structure is designed to support five future additional floors.

Hospital staff and community members gathered for a topping out ceremony to celebrate this significant milestone. The final beam, which was signed by hospital staff, physicians and volunteers the week leading up to the ceremony, was hoisted by the tower crane into place during the event.

Exercise is key to regaining strength after cancer. “We offer a variety of exercise classes that can be modified to a person’s unique abilities,” said Jennifer Palmer, Program Coordinator. “In-person classes include Balance & Flex, Chair Yoga, Exercise Is Medicine, Exercising to the Oldies, and Gentle Pilates. We also offer Gentle Yoga via ZOOM two evenings per week.”

Relaxation is the goal of the center’s two most popular services –Massage and Reflexology. Offered as thirty-minute appointments, both services are great ways to reduce anxiety and depression.

“The ultimate goal of our program is to offer a safe space for cancer survivors, and those still in treatment, to heal mentally and emotionally,” said Palmer. “The friendships made here are an important part of the journey to wellness, and we encourage the social connections that easily form here.”

The Thomas F. Chapman Family Cancer Wellness program is funded by individual donations, as well as proceeds from our annual Piedmont Newnan Soiree. In 2022, the second annual Soiree raised over $160,000 for our program and other oncology services.

“This is a significant milestone in the construction of the new South Tower that will open next spring. We’re very excited to be celebrating this with our community,” said Piedmont Newnan Chief Operating Officer (COO) Vicki Kaiser. “We appreciate everyone who joined us to celebrate the last beam being placed and we are excited for the completion of this much needed expansion to our hospital’s campus.”

As a top destination for care in south Atlanta, this project is necessary to keep up with Coweta County’s fast-paced growth and to continue to provide high-quality, patient-centered care close to home for the county’s residents, especially after the increase in volumes since the opening of the new interchange at Interstate 85 and Poplar Road in 2019.

Nutrition is the focus of the center’s two monthly cooking classes. Chef Nancy Waldeck hosts Taste & Savor, which focuses on easy, healthy and delicious meals that can be duplicated at home. Chef Michael Laidlaw shares plant-based recipes and illustrates how nutritious a vegan menu can be.

Nutrition is also the focus of the center’s in-house dietitian, Andrea Swartz. Swartz meets privately with cancer patients by appointment to discuss their changing dietary needs during their cancer journey.

The Piedmont Newnan Thomas F. Chapman Family Cancer Wellness program currently offers eighteen classes and services.

“One of our biggest challenges is spreading the word about our amazing space and all the programs we offer here,” said Palmer.

“If you or someone you know has ever been diagnosed with cancer, please let them know about us.”

Piedmont Newnan’s Thomas F. Chapman Family Cancer Wellness Program celebrated National Cancer Survivor Day this year with a globally-themed open house. On Wednesday, June 7, approximately fifty cancer survivors attended the event which included demonstrations, wellness services and food from around the world.

“This inaugural celebration was a huge success, and we are already looking forward to making it even bigger and better next year!” said Palmer.

The hospital has previously expanded the current facility, growing from 136-bed to 167-bed facility, but remains full. The South Tower project, which broke ground in October, will add 50 additional beds, which includes the intent to continue to build additional floors in future phases, and is the most significant investment Piedmont has made in Coweta County since building this new hospital on Poplar Road in 2012. Since opening the new hospital on Poplar Road, Piedmont has invested almost $300 million in capital here at Newnan, including the $65 million budgeted for this expansion.

Construction is estimated to be completed in Spring 2024. Once complete, the hospital’s capacity will increase from its current licensed bed count of 167 to 217 licensed beds.

“We’re very grateful for the support of our community during this construction project,” said Kaiser. “The Piedmont Newnan team is

looking forward to continuing serve the healthcare needs of those in Coweta and surrounding communities through this new addition to our hospital.”

Creativity is great medicine for the anxiety that often plagues those battling cancer. The center currently offers Art & Soul, a weekly painting class; Bumble Beads, a jewelry-making class; and

Kathy Bohannon’s Front Porch Stories

My husband’s grandmother was a well-known resident of Madras, Georgia. Lee Phillips may have been best known for the multitude of quilts she handstitched and also demonstrated at Powers Crossroads Fair, back when that was a thing. Of course, anyone would be impressed by her fortitude as a widow raising seven children alone, so it could have been that. Come to think of it, it may have been her appearance on the 1950’s era Queen for a Day show, and the item she chose for her prize. More on that later.

Grandmother Phillips created legacy pieces and made sure her grandchildren had something she had made. I don’t know if she was able to share something with every grandchild, but she definitely tried. My husband’s quilt was made in the early 1950s. It is constructed of cotton ticking, pieces from clothing and assorted blocks cut from flour sacks. It has seen better days, having been in my husband’s life for nearly 70 years.

Grandmother Phillips lived in a wood framed house on Highway 29, and it is still there today. I recall the rooms had tall ceilings and a bathroom that was clearly a coat closet in its early days. It was so small I could barely get inside when I was expecting our first child. My father in law said it was added “later”. I can’t imagine my mother in law and her six siblings waiting for that tiny bathroom. My brother, two sisters and I would have had fights over less.

I often think of Grandmother Phillips when I sew. I first met her when she was in her late seventies and I was amazed at her ability to do pretty much anything she wanted to do. Quilting and cooking were her

Caregivers of Excellence

number one and two favorite things, only after gardening and canning, which, to be honest, were also numbers one and two.

It was in the mid 1970s when I first went to her home. We had a family reunion, and all of the aunts proclaimed I was “the one” because John had never brought a girlfriend “home” before to meet the family. I remember seeing some sort of contraption close to the ceiling. It was something I’d never seen before. That contraption was her quilting frame.

My mom and both grandmothers had “modern” household tools that helped them with their tasks and hobbies. I had never seen anything like a quilting frame way up on the ceiling, but after a bit of explanation from my boyfriend at the time, I discovered how it worked.

Grandmother Phillips would lower that thing by loosening ropes which allowed it to descend to the level most comfortable for quilting. She would move her ladder backed chair along all four sides as she progressed with her stitches.

I think of her often, most times when I am planning a project on my high-tech machine. I have no doubt that Grandmother Phillips would pass up the chance to work on anything but her old quilt frame, no matter how fancy something else was.

Oh, and that Queen for a Day thing? She was offered everything from a diamond ring to a fur coat. What did she ask for? A rototiller for her garden. Her mule got too old to work so thankfully she decided to go for modern. Maybe folks passing by knew her best by the elderly woman managing a tiller. Whatever she was known for, she was Grandmother Phillips to me, and a great inspiration.

TheWeekly Kitchen with Angela Real Women Do Eat Quiche

Back in the early 1980s, a book became famous largely because of its provocative title, Real Men Don’t Eat Quiche. It was a bit of satire that probably would be unpublishable today, but I remember thinking several times since its publication that any man who doesn’t care for quiche is welcome to send his slice my way.

I recently experimented with a mini quiche recipe that turned out so well, I plan to use it again and again. A small serving of quiche is a versatile food that can be served at brunches, teas, receptions, and showers.

Earlier this month, my sister and I hosted a baby shower for my niece Cari. I had offered to make mini quiches, and to be honest, I spotted some frozen ones at the grocery store and was tempted to buy a couple of boxes and call it done. Still, I was eager to try a new way of baking the pastry cups using a technique I’d read about online, and I also wanted to make two different flavors, so I opted for homemade. When I got compliments on the quiches at the shower and mentioned that I’d almost purchased the premade ones at the grocery store, a couple of the ladies shook their heads and insisted I’d made the right choice. These bite-size quiches couldn’t have been simpler to make, and my taste-tester husband (a real man, I might add) liked them too!

Recipe Mini

Quiches

o 2 deep-dish pie shells, thawed

o 5 large eggs

o 1 cup whole milk

o 1/2 teaspoon salt

o 1/2 teaspoon pepper

o 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

o 1/2 cup grated cheese plus extra for garnish

o 1 cup add-ins of your choice (meat, chopped vegetables, etc.)

On a lightly floured surface, roll out each pie shell and flatten with a rolling pin until it’s at least a 12-inch circle. Using a 2-1/2-inch-round cookie cutter, cut 24 circles from each pie shell. (I used a scalloped cutter to create flowerlike edges around the circles.) When the dough is thin enough and the scraps are rerolled, it works perfectly.

Spray a mini muffin pan with cooking spray, insert a pastry round into each well, and press the dough up the sides of each one.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, combine eggs, milk, and seasonings and combine well. Stir in 1/2 cup of cheese and the add-ins. Spoon approximately one tablespoon of egg mixture into each cup, stopping just shy of the top of the dough, and garnish with a bit of extra cheese. Bake for 20-22 minutes. Yields 48 mini quiches.

You may serve these immediately or let them cool, place them in a plastic container, and refrigerate them overnight. Before serving, warm quiches in a preheated 350-degree oven for 5-7 minutes and serve hot.

Note: I halved the egg mixture and used 1/4 cup of mozzarella and 1/2 cup cooked and drained spinach in one half, and 1/4 cup of cheddar and 1/2 cup chopped bacon in the other. Feel free to experiment!

Caregiving is a challenge but you can successfully do it!

Most often the role of caregiving is not something that comes to us slowly.  It hits us abruptly after a loved one’s illness, fall or hospital stay.

One day your life is full and you have plans for the future and the next day, BAM! Life has taken an unexpected turn.

If you have just begun this caregiver journey, you may not know how you are going to do this, especially since your plate is already full.  How do you gain the confidence you need to do this caregiving thing and do it right?

You take it one step at a time.

First – You need to pull up every bit of courage and patience you have from your toe nails and tell yourself YOU CAN DO

Senior Living Advice

with BETH DOW, Geriatric Care Manager

THIS!  You may have doubts, you may not know how, but you can survive this.

Next –  Learn everything you can about the illness or injury that your loved one has. Read, Google and go to workshops.

Third – Call a mandatory family conference.  This can be in-person, by phone or by FaceTime.  The purpose of this call is to get everyone on the same page

... This is what we are dealing with, this is what it means, and I cannot do it alone.  I am going to survive this and I need your help to do so.   If you need help with this conversation ask a trusted friend, pastor or a Geriatric Case Manager.

Fourth – Run, do not walk to your nearest Elder Law Attorney, Financial Advisor, Banker and VA Specialist.  You need to know what financial resources are available to help with care.  You need to know if name changes on property, bonds, etc., need to happen.  You need to make sure all your legal paperwork, wills, trusts and Power of Attorneys are in order.  If your loved one is a veteran, you need to know how to apply for the programs they are

entitled to.

Fifth – Commit to not doing this alone.  Caring for someone does not mean that you provide 100% of the care. The best care you can give your loved one may not be the care you provide.   How many super heroes have you seen save the world all on their own?  You’ve got to let someone else help.

Sixth – Do not isolate.  Isolation is one of the most damaging effects that caregiving has on the caregiver.  Continue to go to church, go out with friends and find a support group.

Seventh – Consider that your loved one may not be the only one that needs to be medicated.   Caregiving is stressful.

One doctor said that 97% of all illnesses

could be traced back to stress.  You have got to survive this: for yourself and for your loved one.  Go to your doctor, get a checkup and get on something to help you with anxiety, stress and depression.   And last – Don’t forget to laugh.  It has been proven, that laughter improves your mood and helps the chemicals in your brain, maintain balance.

Caregiving is hard but you can do this, one step at a time.
