September 1, 2020 - Hurricane Laura blew through Shelby County the morning of August 27th and brought down a Water Oak tree (Quercus Nigra) which is believed to be over 100 years old.

August 31, 2020 - Local businesses are joining forces to provide meals for all the linemen working in the Shelby County area to restore power since Hurricane Laura came through causing many to lose power. Your hard work does not go unnoticed! We know there are long hours being worked, never-ending days and lots of hard work involved.
