Good morning Forsyth County, and welcome to June 2026!

This morning, our photo was snapped in front of Tri-County Collision on Dahlonega Hwy (Hwy 9) near downtown Cu***ng.

Have a great week Forsyth and start it off right by paying it forward somehow. Leave us a comment down below how you plan to do that or how someone has paid it forward to you in the past.

On Memorial Day, this individual was driving on GA400 going 104mph. That's not the worst part of it, they were in a 55mph CONSTRUCTION ZONE! Thankfully no one was working in the area due to the holiday. This type of speed in a construction zone is extremely dangerous and can be deadly to those road crews. Needless to say, this person was taken to the Freeman Hotel for Reckless Driving.

For this we give a shout out to Chief Joe! On his way home yesterday he stopped and helped a turtle get to safety!

While helping a turtle isn't a proven ticket to instant riches, in folklore, saving a turtle in the road is often viewed as an act of good karma that brings positive blessings.

Please keep in mind, with all this rain, the turtles are on the move. If you see one in the road, if it is safe to do so, help a little feller out. But please don't call Animal Control, they only respond for domestic animals and not wildlife.

Yesterday, the University of North Georgia Advanced Public Safety Academy at Forsyth graduated Class 008.

During the 20-week academy, these deputies and officers were pushed, but they never quit. They leave this academy with additional training that would take them years to acquire while working. They are better prepared to serve and make a positive difference in their communities, through agencies across North Georgia.

Congratulations Graduates of Class 008!
