leven years ago something was started in Macon that is worth our Houston County readers knowing about. When Brax and Tate Bragg, brothers and local musicians were tragically killed in a car accident on their way home to a gig at the Rookery in Downtown Macon, friends gathered in their stead and played their songs. Every year since, those same friends have gathered, at that same place, and have played those same songs. Only over the years, Macon’s largest music festival has risen around them. But the Bragg Jam Festival isn't just for live-music lovin' night owls. During the day, Bragg Jam's Arts @ the Park hosts a free daytime event where families are invited to create, perform and play in the heart of the city. The event features art, food and beverage vendors, live music and community performances and nature-oriented activities.As the sun goes down, Bragg Jam's signature Concert Crawl is already geared up, featuring 36 live music performances at a variety of Macon hotspots, with free trolley service throughout the night. In addition to bars, there are all-ages performance venues that are
smoke-free and family friendly. Admission to the Concert Crawl is $20 for an armband that gets you into each venue. Armbands are not pre-sold but available for purchase at any of the participating venues during the Concert Crawl. In 2009, the Bragg Jam Festival donated a portion of this year's net proceeds to the Ocmulgee Heritage Trail, the Cox Capitol Theatre and the Georgia Music Hall of Fame's M.I.K.E. (Music in Kids Education) program. Inspired by late musicians and brothers Brax & Tate Bragg and operated as a 501(c)3 under a volunteer board of directors, the festival has contributed over $110,00 of its net proceeds to charitable organizationsIn 2008, NewTown Macon awarded Bragg Jam with the Partners in Progress Award for "Creating a Sense of Place," which declared, "Bragg Jam helps NewTown's goal of creating a vibrant, youthful downtown community. Macon and music are synonymous, and NewTown's focus through branding and events is to highlight this connection. No downtown event has done this more successfully than Bragg Jam."

The things making our world just a little bit better | by brad evans
July is vacation time, and I’ve done my fair share of it this month spending about five days in the lovely town of Apalachicola, the last great bay. A friend’s family has a house right on the water there, and a small group of guys carried fishing poles and a couple of pairs of shorts down for some serious fishing. I came home with a couple of meals full of trout and more than a few stories to tell. It was my kind of vacation and my kind of town. On the water all day, same restaurant every night, same bar every night. It was just what I needed. I’ve been into four books this week. Battle Cry of Freedom, by John McPherson, was written to be a one volume history of the Civil War, is thorough yet really interesting to read. It’s supposedly THE Civil War book and I’ve just never got around
to reading it. I’m glad I did. Legacy of Ashes, The History of the CIA by Tim Weiner (no relation) is a fairly interesting indictment of the CIA and an overview of its history from World War II to Iraq. I usually don’t like reading history laced with opinion, unless I agree with it and it’s hard not to agree that the CIA has done quite the job on undermining American principles and politics. In a desperate attempt to get myself out of the “History of” run I’ve been on for what seems like a year, I also started reading Orientation by Daniel Orozco. In this fantastically original debut, Orozco leads the reader through the secret lives and philosophies of bridge painters, men housebound by obesity, office temps, and warehouse workers. I think this book might just get me back into fiction again.
I’ve been listening to the Temptations Greatest Hits, The Band Of Horses Infinite Arms album and truckloads of Levon Helm>. If you don’t own the White Mansions album, some of his songs on there are wonderful. I also got Ramble at the Ryman this week and Dirt Farmer. All of them are wonderful. Bragg Jam is coming up though which means that I have to get a schedule together. 3

THERE IS ‘UNITY’ IN COMMUNITY RACHEL HELIE hen physical health and fitness feels like a solitary endeavor, something elusive and distant that we are always striving toward but never attain, the goals seem unreachable. This is not how things stand at Kingdom Impact. Love Burnseed, Program Director, Sparks Coach and choreographer at Kingdom Impact, places emphasis on the community effort it takes to sustain health and wellness. Illustrating three goals, 1) Family dietary modification, 2) exercise with an emphasis on family group participation, and 3) limiting “screen time”, anyone can achieve their fitness goals and keep a sense of humor and their sanity. “Parents must model healthful behaviors if they expect their children to adopt those values in their lives,”Burnseed emphasizes. “Even in a quest for individual health and fitness, it takes a village. Working together we become stronger.” Staying true to this idea, Kingdom Impact and its community partners, New Hope International and HODAC are bringing this approach to Houston County. Dedicated to the principle of community service, these institutions, along with a handful of citizens committed to making a change in their town, hope to impact their world in big ways and serve Houston County with generous enthusiasm. Kingdom Impact started as a fitness facility attached to the Youth Center of New Hope International. It has grown in leaps and bounds so energetic that this non-profit organization hopes to start construction on a new facility of 44000 square feet, in the near future. The building will feature indoor baseball, dance and fitness centers, and an education center that provides information and intervention plans to address issues such as childhood obesity and diabetes, conditions at epidemic proportions in the state of Georgia. The blueprints have been drawn. The project will cost Kingdom Impact $3 million, but representatives at KI, as it is known in the community, feel it is well worth the investment. With two All-star Cheer teams catering to ages 14 and under, a variety of year long day camps, and a Special Needs program so effective that Robins Air Force base has a contract, KI is a force unto itself. Burnseed emphasizes that “diversity is key in scheduling programs here at Kingdom Impact. We are currently trying to start a Special Needs cheer team, and have embraced that challenge with modified programs and equipment. We want to organize a coordinated community service initiative through Houston County Board of Education that rewards children with a two-fold incentive program to promote fitness and academics.
W
We have worked with HODAC providing parenting orientation and education on site.” The list goes on. Jamie Walderman, a B.A. in physical education employed at KI, has her eye on her next prize. With Jordan Poole, Janice Ketchie, and K.I supporting them, Burnseed and Walderman hope to cheer on the Teen Center at Sewell Circle Park. Jordan Poole, creative director at New Hope International, paid a visit to the Dream Center, located two miles from the heart of urban Los Angeles. The Dream Center is said to embody the “find a need and fill it, find a hurt and heal it” quote by Tommy Barnett, pastor of Phoenix First Assembly of God. Poole, after seeing this model thriving, was inspired. Adopting the concept, Poole started a weekly hydration project in Sewell Circle Park, distributing water and Gatorade to the athletes who practice there, as the park does not currently have water fountains. From there he has helped pilot an Adopt a Block program, a Brown Bag Project for ages K-12 serving 50 families in the Sewell Circle area, and fitness initiatives that include a Flag Football League and the second annual 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament September 17, sponsored by 97.9 WIBB, Atlanta Hawk (the official Atlanta Hawks radio) and Mentor Plus. Flag football registration opens at the end of August The Deloris Toliver Teen Center, named for a teen from the Sewell Circle area, is surrounded by resources. Basketball courts, a pool, ball field, playground, and the center itself are present and accounted for. What was missing until recently was a little TLC. The city cares for the grounds along with community volunteers through Keep Warner Robins Beautiful. Janice Ketchie, director of the Teen Center through HODAC, states that “the aim of the center is to provide after school enrichment programs to kids age 10-18 in the Houston county area, and the kids of the Sewell Circle Park neighborhood specifically.” Ketchie hopes to work with Burnseed and Walderman to expand her program and resources. KI, Hodac, and New Hope International demonstrate the same ideas in these efforts. A community does not have to be perfect for its citizens to be proud of it. Civic pride is only the beginning.

CITY SCENE
New salon promises employees and clients a spiritual experience JENNY MURR hen Ginger Huff dreamt of the salon she would one day own, she knew it would be ground-breaking for Middle Georgia. Her goal was to create an atmosphere of tranquility, an oasis in the middle of her customers’ own personal desert. “I want my customers to feel the peace they seek,” said this visionary. And so began her journey to gather like-minded professionals to build a “dream team” of b e a u t y . Understanding that it takes more than just a beautiful environment to achieve the peace she envisioned, Huff is taking measures to provide an atmosphere of growth and serenity for her staff. Salon Fusion garners its name from Huff’s desire to take the best of myriad successful salons and fuse them with the unique qualities of her new team. “I want the vision of the Salon Fusion staff to be the customers’ vision,” Huff said. “Using their skills and passion, the staff turns the client’s vision into reality.” She accomplishes this by “providing encouragement, support, passion and education to uplift the stylists and encourage them to be the best they can be in their chosen field, as well as life.” During her eight year career, Huff has witnessed just what makes a salon successful and a beauty team happy. Her passion to provide a unique experience for her staff spilled over to her sister, Kim Veal, who is the administrative part of this flourishing partnership. Desiring her salon to be on the forefront of the industry, Huff is interested in hiring only the most motivated and creative staff. To that end, she is holding a “hiring event” to cull only the most innovative local talent—something not offered in this area before. “We are the only salon in the area with a trained salon/stylist coach,” Huff said. Salon Manager and stylist Renee Jones is a National
W
Education for Paul Mitchell Systems and a former cosmetologist for MAC Cosmetics; she promises to bring her own passion for beauty to the salon. “I felt my heart swell every time I heard my guests say, ‘Renee, I just want to take you home and have you do my hair everyday!’ Now, I teach other stylists in Southeast region how to give their guests the same experience,” she said.
“I travel all over Georgia, Florida, parts of Tennessee and Alabama doing classes for salons, hair shows, and working with some amazing people! I've trained with some of the most incredible hairdressers in the industry and I've had the experience of working with top-name photographers, models, and magazines, as well as doing commercial workincluding, but not limited to, Tommy Bahama's, Maserati, Coastal Carolina Magazine, and One Serious Threat Clothing. Though I've done a little modeling work myself, my passion is ignited the most when I help someone else feel like a model.” Jones will be on site during the hiring event offering demonstrations of latest techniques. “Guests can receive information about the vision of the salon while taking a look around and meeting the owner and salon manager at a relaxed pace,” Huff said. Huff plans to hire at least seven people from this hiring event, but can hire up to 12 staff if the event is a success. These lucky new hires
will profit from innovative leadership who understand the importance of cross-promotions and becoming part of the community. “We are teaming up with organizations and groups in the immediate Middle GA area to garner recognition that doesn’t come with traditional advertising techniques. By giving back to the community and partnering with other local successful businesses, we expect our grassroots marketing model to set a new standard in the industry.” Coupling her unique marketing techniques with continuous education of her staff, she will ensure that her crew stays on top of the newest trends and that the salon provides the
Charles “Bud” Matlock and his wife Cheryl from Bonaire were the big winners Saturday, July 16, at the 26th Annual Museum of Aviation Foundation Auction, Raffle and Taste of Local Cuisine. Their ticket was the lucky one drawn to win $30,000 cash or a choice of a new car or truck from one of eight Middle Georgia car dealers. The couple attended the event but left before the drawing was held. They have decided to take the cash. “We just bought a new car,” said “Bud” who works for Boeing on the C-17 program. The second raffle winner of $3,000 cash was Helen Grady from Macon and Keith Bennett from Kathleen won the $1,000 third prize. Tori Hulette from Bonaire also won $1,300 in the “blinking pin” headsor-tails 50/50 drawing. The event was a great success, according to Pat Bartness, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Museum of Aviation Foundation that put on the annual event. “This is our second largest fund raiser each year to raise money to help the Museum. We had a great turn out and the event raised $203,000 in cash and another $58,000 worth of food donations from 29 restaurants and caterers.”

Bethany Fuss, First Lady Sandra Deal, and Ms. Maureen Martin, Bethany's AP World History teacher from Houston County High School. This picture was taken at the Days of Remembrance of the Holocaust, 2011 in Atlanta.
HOUSTON COUNTY HIGH STUDENT WINS STATE AWARD LOU WARREN ouston County High School rising senior,Bethany Fuss tied for 3rd place in the 2011 Georgia Commission Holocaust Art/Music Competition. Bethany's winning art entry was a poster depicting Holocaust Victims. Bethany and her family went to the state capital in Atlanta where she was honored in an early morning ceremony, April 29,2011. Also attending was Bethany's AP World History teacher and Social Studies Department Chairperson, Maureen Martin, who first told Bethany about the contest. Martin remarked,"Bethany is a quiet, sincere, and graceful young woman with a talent for artistic expression. Her grandmother survived an arduous labor camp experience in Poland during WWII; I am so proud of Bethany's integrity and perseverance in this project." Ellie and John Fuss, Bethany's parents wrote this about the award:"Bethany is humbled and honored to have received this news. Our entire family feels honored as Bethany's grandmother was a WWII survivor and was forced to work on a labor farm. Bethany has read many books on the holocaust which inspired her drawings." Bethany said she accepted the challenge of the project because," I wanted to honor my grandmama, Littie Kolldviej, who lived with
H
my family. Last summer I visited Auschwitz. It is a very sad, solemn, and thought provoking place. I kept thinking that I was standing where people who had died had also stood.� Her poster honors those who died as well as the survivors. Bethany said she had always liked to draw but became really excited about it after a friend encouraged her to take an art class from Mrs.Peavy, in the 9th grade. The contest winning poster is a collage of pencil drawings Bethany did of real Holocaust victims she discovered through researching the reference material from the Holocaust curriculum for her AP World History. She worked on and off for a couple of months to produce and incorporate the drawings into the winning design of her poster. "The Georgia Commission on the Holocaust was established to teach the lessons of the Holocaust to present and future generations of Georgians in order to create an awareness of the enormity of the crimes of prejudice and inhumanity, and a vigilance to prevent their recurrence." In this year's contest, students had the choice of creating in various media to answer the question," What are the lessons of the holocaust?" Entries were judged on creativity, artistic excellence, and thematic content. For more i n f o r m a t i o n , v i s i t www.holocaust.georgia.gov.

ll types of hairdos walk through this maze of aisles, bins, and end-cap displays: the tightly curled, the heavily-shellacked, the Easter egg-colored, the pigtailed, and even the bald. These captains of hair commandeer their vessels as soon as they file through the automatic glass doors. The cargo ship is launched and guided through the vast selection of human staples and nonessentials. All the while, the ship’s bowels are loaded with planning and purpose; but, at times, seemingly without a single thought or any sense at all. This place can be risky, too. All day long it holds dear the most perilous combination of traffic impeders---the very young and the very old (and their handlers). Additionally, these polarized subgroups can have the most interesting of hair styles known to mankind and they can butt heads like nobody’s business. Welcome to inside the commissary, or in layman’s terms, the military’s grocery store. Upon entry, one should be issued full-body padding and a hand paddle that reads, “Sorry!� on one side and “Excuse me,� on the other. I say this not only because you will constantly bump into your fellow shoppers, but you will also rapidly tire of saying those apologetic phrases over and over again. Silent “severe storm alerts� fill the gulf and are unheeded. Even the produce section may sound out a simulated thunder clap followed by rain sprinkles. Such troubled waters bring out the worst in people and I can attest to that personally. When my son was two-years-old, he was cursed with the ailment of daily tantrums. (I know that is highly unusual for that age bracket, but I digress.) But,
since I am his mother, I knew best how to get his bursts of ill temper to pass more quickly---completely ignore his screams, cries, and flailing limbs. As I slighted his latest fit, I breezily inspected the navel oranges. (My cart was maybe six feet away. I didn’t want to look like I was “with him�, but I didn’t want to get stopped for child neglect either.) On deck with me at the oranges was a petite, senior woman. I acknowledged her with a smile and she just glared back. I began to wonder if her helmet-hair was too heavy to keep her responsive. But, she broke her hush with a saucy, “I hope I don’t have to hear that [my son] the whole time I’m in here.� A little miffed, I softly responded, “Well, I hope you don’t either.� Despite that, she forged ahead with, “You should take him outside!� Whoa, Gussy! This made me start to waffle and scramble, but then my right arm swung around to almost hit her between the eyes with my index finger extended out. As I stood for all mothers who suffered in stores with their embarrassingly loud children, I shouted, “Why don’t you mind your own business, lady?!� That emphatic statement left the old bat speechless, but me in a near nervous breakdown. I returned to my son who had fallen asleep upright and slowly wheeled away towards the condiments. I wanted to go home. But, now, I had a napping toddler and I needed to complete filling my vessel with, something. The explosion was heard ‘round the shipyard. On my way out, I was stopped by well-wishers with “high-fives� and then others who gave me looks of reproach. Without a hair out-of-place, I retreated to the cashier’s line soaked by the incident and its fallout. Maybe straight-jackets should be issued at embarkation as well.

NIGHTLIFE | david brockway explores Houston County’s nightlife
WIL POWER I mean, who doesn’t know Big Wil. He’s the top dog, the numero uno, the big enchilada where security for our favorite venues is concerned. And, he’s about as nice and noble a human being as you could ask for. As I write this article, I am not very sure where to go with it but I am convinced that the success of several entertainment outlets that contract him for their security is at least partially due to his presence. Wil just knows how to make everyone feel like they are going to have a fun, safe evening and they can relax on the knowledge that he has already seen and is on top of whatever may occur. I sat down with Wil this week and had a little powwow about his job and the thing that I immediately recognized was that almost every person that came in the door made a bee-line to him and said hi. I guess in a sense, they are all just saying, thanks for what you do and acknowledge his authority where safety is concerned. When I asked him about his job, Wil replied “I just love the people. I like knowing that they can rely on me to insure their safety while they having a good time.” One of the local bartenders said this about Wil. He’s always near when you need him and he really makes me feel like I don’t have to get involved.” You see, it’s not like the awesome Patrick Swayze movie, ‘Roadhouse’, at all. In his words, “it doesn’t take brawn to do what I do, it takes people skills and a level head and patience.”
I LIVED THE DREAM I asked a few of our local musicians and entertainers to get with me last Monday at Kipper’s Sports Grill for a brief meeting about how to make our music scene the best it can be. I was amazed that so many people showed up and yet I find, I really shouldn’t be, because these players are as passionate about their scene as I am. We had a brief discussion and then got into what we really wanted to do and that was play music. For those of you who were there that night, you got a great show from skilled players like Griff and Russ and Earl and Anny and Travis and Keith and a bunch of other guys and all hosted by
Darin and Jason. I lived a dream. I got great compliments from Steve and Foster and a dozen others, thanking me for putting the thing together but I willingly acknowledge, the kudos go to you guys that believe in live music and entertainment and showed up to support it. I can tell those of you within the sound of my voice, the winds of change are blowing and they are blowing a gale. With so many talented players and genuinely great people, how can we possibly fail? I encourage you, the reader, to get involved, support local music and help us make Warner Robins the best it can musically and artistically be. Yes I did live a dream that night because I see that Warner Robins has so much diversity in styles and sounds and and I am proud to be small part of it. Now just so you know, Jason Hobbes and Darin Curtis host Open Mic Night every Monday at Kippers at 9:00pm and if you are remotely interested in getting into music, whether you play or sing, please come support these guys in what they do. They would love to see you and Kipper’s will give anyone who plays a $10 food or drink tab. If that doesn’t motivate you, I really don’t know what will.
THE DOC IS OUT!
I met Eddie Stone at a golf course one day soon after I moved here and it took all of 3.7 seconds for me to recognize this was someone who has lived experiences most of us only get to dream of. Now Eddie and I are friends and it is with heavy heart that I announce the disbanding of a 30+ year band extraordinaire, Doc Holliday. With over 15 albums, hundreds of songs, thousands of gigs and tens of thousands of fans, this band has been a staple source of awesome music. The members of Doc Holliday are Bruce Brookshire - Vocals, Lead Guitar Eddie Stone - Keyboards, Guitar, Vocals John Turner Samuelson Lead Guitar, Vocals Daniel Bud Ford Bass Guitar, Vocals and Danny "Cadillac" Lastinger - Drums. I am honored to be able to offer the farewell and standing ovation they deserve for such a successful and long-lived career these guys have carried. How proud we should all be that little Middle Georgia is called home by this world-traveling band and how fortunate we are to continue to hear
the stories and music from said members. I will try and get with the band in the next couple of weeks and get a little more detail about their immediate future so stay tuned.
catch them August 14th at Bouchez. You can also friend them up at www.facebook.com/jubeeandthemorningafter
JUBEE & THE MORNING AFTER
Sugar Creek will be appearing at Friends on the Hill on July 22nd. Also on July 22nd is Holocaustion and Grievances at Bouchez and Steve and Mike at Kipper’s. From Within has two chances to catch them at Applebee’s in Perry on July 23rd and Meldino’s Pizzeria on July 24th. The Wall is gonna rock out at Shenanigan’s on July 22nd. Local legends Rob Walker and Eddie Stone are playing at the Tavern every Wednesday at 6:30. Treblemakers is making their debut at Applebee’s on Russell Pkwy Thursday 21st. The Cavern is hosting Sidewinder on July 23rd and awesome band, Homeless Hill on the 30th. Florida band, Simone and the Supercats, return for the sixth straight month to Yesterdaze on July 29th and 30th.
“What is that?’ I asked several people at Bouchez regarding the genre of music being played by the band. The band was Jubee and the Morning After and the response to my inquiry by the majority was, “I don’t know, but I like it!” It really is hard to nail down or label the style of music JATMA plays because it is made up of so many different styles, influences and personalities. It’s a little funk mixed with some reggae spiced with hip-hop and seasoned with alternative, all in a giant bowl of good old rock ‘n roll. I was impressed with their energy and their obvious ease of pocket groove as these guys have been playing together in a variety of bands like ‘Dope John Paul’ since they were kids. Members are Danny Davis, Alex Scarborough, guest guitarist Steven Bell from ‘Not Hollywood’, Alec Stanley, lead guitarist and of course, lead singer, Jubee. Jubee has great vocals, awesome stage presence and is a proficient rapper. I love hearing the great harmonic blends he and Danny play around with. I love the crisp snap of Alex’s snare drum. I love the clever riffs and progressions Steve throws in. Yes, I love Jubee and the Morning After and you will too. Go check them out at Bragg Jam in Macon on July 30th or

Ray, Russ, Chris and Toby are bringing their grunge metal back to Warner Robins. Emphatically stating they are not a cover band, they play a “plethra” of everything from their own heavy sounds to their favorite incluences like Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Incubus, Creed and Soundgarden. These guys are from Macon, and aren’t afraid to turn the dial way, way up.

Homeless Hill @ The Cavern
Wednesday,Aug 3
Eddie Stone & Rob Walker @ Tavern Dare we call them legends of the Warner Robins music scene... maybe just infamous. Ed and Rob perform classic rock, pop, and Americana hits on acoustic and electric guitars.
Ask anyone who has been fortunate enough to see Homeless Hill live and they will tell you about their amazing live show,dynamic stage prescence and how much sound comes from just three people. As Chris Horne from The Macon Telegraph wrote "relying on their vocal harmonies and powerful hooks, if you catch one of their live shows, you may just become one of their Homeless Homies" a name they have... adapted for their die hard fan base they have ammased over the years. The band quickly found success playing the Georgia bar circuit by distinguishing themselves from all the other bands with their impressive live performance and original material. With some of their biggest influences ranging from The Red Hot Chilli Peppers to Alterbridge their sound is like a mixture of every great rock song you've ever heard all thrown into one.
