Cody Jackson, known across America as the One Boy USO, is announcing his soon-to-be released children's book  Pint-Sized Patriots Coloring and Activity Book, of which a portion of the sales will go to Cody's fund raising efforts for sending  packages to military men and women overseas. Cody became popular across America after being featured on CNN, FoxNews, CBS, and NBC for thanking over 10,000 troops at the Atlanta airport.

Cody's journey as the One Boy USO began when he was four, with a simple question: "Why is it so hard to get on a plane?" Ever since the moment his parents tried to explain what happened on 9/11, Cody has been a new boy. Every day he goes out of his way to thank our military men and women and regularly goes to the airport to salute our men and women in uniform. As a way to thank more soldiers personally, Cody also collects donations to help fund care packages to ship to deployed troops.

The Henry County Administration Building has expanded its gallery of student artwork! A new set of students' artwork has been installed in the County Administration Building thanks to the Arts Initiative launched two years ago by the Henry County Board of Commissioners, in partnership with the Board of Education and the local Arts Coalition.  The program is designed to highlight the extraordinary artwork being created by our young people by displaying select pieces in the County Administration Building. 

When the New Year comes people make goals, aspirations, and ways to make new lives for themselves. Whether it’s getting on a new diet plan, changing the people in your environment or changing your environment all together, we make plans to change in area in our lives that we are dissatisfied. As a society, we are taught to set goals, in order to be successful or to have some type of progress in our lives. We are now approaching the end of January. Have you made the necessary steps to obtain to secure your personal goals?

I set personal goals for myself on a daily basis. I come up with a list of goals to pace myself so I can really achieve them. Each task leads me to an ultimate objective or goal. Like for instance, my overall life goals are to be a great mother and own a successful international entertainment empire.
