Before I get started, yes, we are all thankful for our jobs that we have, however, does that mean we should roll-over and let the Commissioners take from us what has been rightfully ours for many, many years? I'm not just talking about us current employees of 5 years or less, I'm talking about employees of this fine county that have had these holidays for eeeeons!!! The Presiding Commissioner just can't stand it unless she has all of us under her greedy little thumb!! The other two are afraid of her, so just follow along like whipped pups. Okay...I'm done venting for a bit. Did you know that they took off the holiday list, VETERANS DAY!!! OMG!!! What a slap in our fine Veterans faces as well as all our Americans. How dare they!! AND.....they took away Martin Luther King Jr. too!!!! Are these people insane or what??? The PC was heard on the radio this morning that in the past, the employees didn't get their work don on those days off. Has she lost her marbles or what??? Of course we get the work done. It may take a day to catch up, but who is she kidding?? She is trying to answer for all the elected officials!!! I for one am furious as to the communist ways of this present commission. There is absolutely NO MONEY being saved by taking away our holidays. In fact, it will COST the county to run the entire courthouse and R&B for that day....electricricity, water, fuel for county R&B vehicles. I"m soooo glad that election year is coming fast, because this county needs to clean the slate and start over again with CARING, COMPASSIONATE commissioners. Unless you are employed by the county, it may be a bit confusing, but trust me, it's all true. And for those of you that think we are greedy employees, think again. We have families, pay bills and look forward to ALL the perks promised to us when we signed the dotted lines. Taking money out of the employees pockets is not the way to do it, especially when there is a reserve of 3.9 million. OK, I'm done. Thank you for stopping by and reading this.

Despite a cease and desist order from Camden County, the owner of an entertainment venue at the 7-mile marker is not only open for business, he’s challenging the legality of planning and zoning. Gary Prewitt, owner of Shady Gators and Lazy Gators, filed a lawsuit against Camden County after being ordered to shut down for being in violation of the planning and zoning rules. Prewitt is asking for $2.7 million in damages from the county. According to the county, Prewitt is doing business under a catering license on a piece of property that is zoned for residential use not commercial. Prewitt has built a pool, tiki bar, volleyball courts and cabanas where patrons can relax and enjoy the water and view.
