Board members come together to better Clinton

In 2009, when Jacey Blaylock was 17, she and a friend decided to take an early October trip to the Castle of Muskogee for its haunted house. But the outing spiraled into crisis when the pair was hit head-on in rural Cherokee County by a man in a speeding car who strayed into their lane. Blaylock, now 33, is still dealing with the effects of that day when she was pinned inside the vehicle for 45 minutes. It would take her a year to learn to walk again, though moving would never be the same because her foot was mangled.
Introduction
Serving as chairman of the Clinton Chamber of Commerce this past year has been a great experience. I’m proud of some of the accomplishments within our community over the past year … While we have a long way to go there were some accomplishments worth noting, specifically the ones that bring our community together for projects and fellowship.
It is truly an honor to serve as the chair of the Clinton Chamber of Commerce. As the owner of Pepsi Bottling Company and someone who deeply loves this community, I’m excited to step into this leadership role and help continue building the momentum Clinton has created.

DENVER (AP) — Authorities said Tuesday they removed two dozen decomposing bodies and multiple containers of bones and likely human tissue after discovering remains last week behind a hidden door of a Colorado funeral home owned by the local county coroner.
