Well, I've got quite a few stories on my list for this week, but with schools and many others off tomorrow for Good Friday, I'm scrambling to get a lot of interviews done today. Here's what I hope to have for the next edition:
• Information on the Board of County Commissioners meeting on Tuesday.
• A more in-depth story on the Orange County Schools superintendent's proposed budget for the 2009-2010 school year.
• I'll be heading over to Cameron Park today for their Earth Day celebration and taking some pictures.
• The Montessori Farm School is doing some interesting stuff as a fundraiser. I'll be heading over there to talk to some people about it.
• Max Carlin is having a speaker at C.W. Stanford to talk to students about life in Kuwait.
I've got a few other things on my list, but they're a little more up in the air. Read Wednesday's paper to find out if they made it in!
On a completely different topic, two deputies in the area I used to live and work where shot yesterday, one killed. They were and are great men — both of them — who went out of their way to help me on my beat and just had and have a great love of serving and protecting. Det. Pearson, who was killed, left behind a wife, and Det. Dawson, who is so far recovering well, has a wife and two children. If you could, keep them all in your thoughts today, that would be much appreciated. And, if you see an officer today, tell them thanks for doing what they do. They've got tough jobs, and they take a tremendous risk every day.
