Mayor Receives $25,000 from Charitable
Mayor Wilson St. Claire
received the Hogansville
Charitable Trust's check for
$20,000 July 12th for its prom-
ised share of the matching
funds for the Royal Theater
(Hogansville City Hall) ren-
ovation grants.
The Charitable Trust,
brainchild of Hogansville
businessman John Jones, is a
non-profit corporation
formed to help the City of
Hogansville pursue federal
and state grants. Chaired by
Hogansville CiW Councilman
Jack Leidner, board members
include Joan DeMarrais,
Mack Reynolds and Jones.
"But that's just the tip of
the iceberg," said Leidner.
"The charm of the Trust is
flexibility. We can taskforce
organize according to what-
ever job needs to be done.
Ricky Thrash, Bobble
Freeman, Suzanne Cook,
Andy Sharp, Nancy Clemmer
are just a few of the folks that
have helped with specific
tasks. And of course City
Manager David Aldrich and
Lynn Miller from Chart Flint
Regional Development are
mainstays for all the pro j-
tS."
To date the Charitable
Trust has helped get $44,000
for the Royal (with an addi-
tional $35,000 coming from
the state via Senator Dan Lee)
and $350,000 for streetscapes
for Main Street and Route 29.
They've also put in for a
Community Development
Block Grant for another
$350,000 for street paving and
sidewalks outside of
Hogansville's main business
district.
Results of that application
are due in September.
for it, most can be done with
in kind work performed by
the city, but we might need
as much as $20,000 in cash.
Jones and other developers
have agreed to cover up to
half of that if the festival and
the trust can't, but even so,
every dollar we can make on
the festival the city needs.
And we're not getting the vol-
unteers for the festival that
we've got to have."
"Bottom line," agreed
Leidner, "is that this year's
festival is probably the most

points out, "Both the Festival Honz0040000
and the Trust are extremely
important to Hogansville this
year. The Trust is on the hook
for almost $11,000 in addi-
tional matching funds for the
rest of the front of City Hall
and we need more cash to help
the city with the $350,000
streetscape project. Of the

tion on Hamilton Road. The
vehicle was stopped by
LaGrange Police Officer

"We are extremely grate-
ful to the LaGrange Police

tance and quick response in
helping to apprehend these
subjects," said Sheriff

Trnup County Sheriff

males are in custody follow-
ing two armed robberies over
the weekend.
According to reports, at
approximately 12:48 a.m
Saturday morning, July 13th,
three males wearing hoods
over their faces entered the
Chevron store at 2255 West
Point Road and demanded
money. According to the
clerk, one of the males pro-
duced a handgun while
demanding the money. The
males left the store on foot
with an undetermined
amount of money.
At approximately 4:16
a.m. on the same morning,
other armed robbery
occurred at the Shell Mart
Food Store on Upper Big
Springs Road. According to
descriptions from the clerk,
it was believed that the same
males were involved in this
robbery.
The males entered the
store with one of them pro-
ducing a handgun, took an
undetermined amount of
money and merchandise and
fled the store on foot: A wit-
hess told deputies that he had
seen a large, white car in the
area earlier.
A lookout was given on a
large, white car with possi-
bly three black males in it.
