"We are the front lines of truth advocacy. Major media outlets have traded truth for sensationalism, and online news sites have no real legal concerns to keep them in check. Digital text is not ink. The community newspapers are left as the only legally challenged body of information. We cannot afford to lie. We cannot afford to be inaccurate. We are the last stand for freedom of the press. We are the last of the true journalists."

Community Service Programs bring cheer to Eoline


Community Service Programs plants cheer into renewing Eoline community

The Bibb County Office of Community Service Programs of West Alabama visited Eoline on Saturday June 9 with a small group of smiling volunteers and a whole lot of plants and flowers.  They were there to bring more renewal to the small community still rising from rubble of an April 27, 2011 tornado.
Dozens of new plants promising a variety of colors and beauty were placed into the grounds at homes and other establishments in the portion of Eoline, which was struck by the tornado. 
“We hope this spreads even more hope,” said Bibb County Coordinator of CSPWA, Taneka Tucker.  “So many plants were destroyed along with these homes on that day and this is a symbol of renewal.”
The group and its volunteers also gave out monetary donations as they visited the community.  For more information about Community Service Programs of West Alabama and your local branch in Centreville please call (205)-926-9384.
