Local store raises money for rescue workers
In honor of those who responded to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the local Fred's store sponsored a "Hero Hats" program. Proceeds from the purchase of Hero Hats benefited local first responders. Shown, from left, are John Williams, a customer; Robert Reeves and David (Blue) Denham, Millen/Jenkins County Fire and Rescue; and Johnny Baker, Fred's. (Staff photo by Deborah Bennett)
