STORY 4: oil
The Georgia Board of Pharmacy has introduced regulations that will allow independent pharmacies in the state to dispense cannabis oil to eligible patients. This move will provide more options for Georgians seeking treatment for chronic illnesses with cannabis oil. In 2019, the General Assembly passed legislation permitting the cultivation of marijuana in Georgia for the production of low-THC cannabis oil. Currently, two companies, Trulieve Georgia and Botanical Sciences LLC, have received manufacturing licenses and opened dispensaries in Marietta and Macon. In addition to these dispensaries, independent pharmacies will also be authorized to sell cannabis oil to eligible patients. Over 100 out of 700 independent pharmacies have shown interest in participating. The Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission expects the first licensed pharmacies to begin selling cannabis oil in late August or early September.
Story 5: library
Starting yesterday, library card holders of the Sequoyah Regional Library System (SRLS) in Cherokee, Pickens, and Gilmer counties can now check out an admission pass to visit the Cherokee County History Center. The pass allows up to four people to visit the History Center for free. SRLS offers Experience Passes that provide free or reduced admission to various cultural institutions, and the addition of the Cherokee County History Center pass expands their collection to 11 passes. The History Center features six galleries showcasing the history of Cherokee County through exhibits, photographs, artifacts, and interactive elements. The partnership between SRLS and the History Center aims to provide access to the local venue for a wider audience. SRLS library cards are available for free and offer access to various resources, including books, audio books, movies, music, and more.
Story 6: callaway
Katie Callaway, a junior forward for Etowah High School's girls' soccer team, had an exceptional season, scoring 23 goals out of the team's total of 39. Her performance led Etowah to their first 10-win season since 2017, including a 5-0 victory in the state playoffs. Callaway was named the Cherokee County Girls Soccer Player of the Year by the county's coaches. The team's success was attributed to their strong defense, which allowed only one goal in region play. Callaway played a pivotal role in key moments, including a four-goal performance and a decisive penalty kick. Despite having several young players, the team showcased excellent chemistry and teamwork. Callaway, known for her skill and humility, still has one more season of high school soccer before joining the college ranks at Utah.
