Letter From the Director We have recently finished another year and should take note of all the blessings of this life. Although we may have experienced challenges in 2013, God has blessed us in ways too numerous to mention. Consider our health, our businesses, our families and all the positive opportunities that have come our way.

Think about the privilege we have to live in Chilton County. Consider the freedoms we enjoy as United States Citizens. As you celebrate the New Year, give thanks to God, our Father, and please remember that Jesus is the reason for the season. - Mike Robertson Executive Director
