It is amazing how time flies when everyone is working hard to educate the children within the county to become productive citizens later in life. This being the Christmas holiday, the education committee of the Carroll County Development Association presented the teachers, bus drivers and other workers in the schools with gift certificates. These certificates can be redeemed at several business within the county by January 31, 2026, which is the deadline.
Our way of wishing each of them “A Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year”.
