Members of the Dodge County-Eastman Development Authority enjoyed yesterday’s Meet and Greet at the Middle Georgia State University Flight Department located right here in Eastman, Ga.

Our Executive Director, Robert Pruitt was happy to talk with a few former students who are now Flight Instructors and are working here.

He said that it brought back fond memories of him being a student in the first graduating class in 1996.

It is a blessing to see the progress that’s been done and we look forward to future growth.

Saturday mornings are cartoon time! Hope you'll check out the new Cars on the Road on Disney Streaming. Episode 7 features Lightning McQueen & Mater stopping at a Truckey's. Love the homage to Stuckey's...although I wish they'd picked up some delicious pecan road snacks ;-)
