April 24, 2018
The Tate High School FFA recently worked to help to fight hunger by sponsoring a Meals Of Hope event.
With help from the community and other school organizations, Tate FFA raised over $5,000 – enough money to assemble 25,920 meals. During the event, 170 students, volunteers and teachers assembled in the gym to package meals. The assembled meals will stay in the Gulf Coast area and will be distributed to the needy.
“The members of the Tate FFA were thrilled to be able to help our community in such an impactful way,” Leanne Jenkins, Tate FFA advisor, said.

Safe Exchange Zone Now Available To Protect Online Buyers, Sellers
April 24, 2018
Atmore now has an “E-commerce Safe Spot” for online buyers and sellers to conduction transactions.
The area’s first e-commerce safe spot with two marked parking spaces is located at on Pensacola Boulevard on the west side of the Atmore Fire Department. The area is monitored by video 24/7.
“We believe that having an area designated for this specific purpose and which is recorded and monitored by the police department will deter those wanting to engage in criminal activity,” Brandi Giger, president of the Atmore Area Chamber of Commerce, said.
Reservations are not necessary, and there is no charge to use the safe spot. City employees, including police officers, will not serve as witnesses or take part in any transaction.
