Let’s show our signature Southern hospitality and give a warm Bainbridge welcome to all our visiting teams and their families.


June's Fire Safety Tip:
Cook Carefully
*Never leave cooking unattended.
*Be on alert! If you are sleepy or have consumed alcohol don’t use the stove or stovetop.
*If you are simmering, baking, or roasting food, check it regularly, remain in the home while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you that you are cooking.
*Keep cooking areas clear of combustibles and wear clothes with short sleeves when you cook.
*Turn pot handles inward on the stove, where you can’t bump them and children can’t grab them.
*Have a “kid-free zone” of at least 3 feet around the stove and areas where hot food or drink is prepared or carried.
*If grease catches fire in a pan, slide a lid over the pan to smother the flames and turn off the heat source. Keep lid on until pan is completely cooled.
*If in doubt about fighting a small fire just get out. Close the door when you leave to contain the fire and call 9-1-1 from a safe location outside the home.

Beginning the week of June 16-23, customers in the Highway 84 East and Nebo Church Road area may experience low water pressure over the next 5 to 6 weeks.

Our commitment to becoming a regional shopping destination is evident in the incredible progress made in less than a year.
Swipe to see the transformation — the first photo was taken last August, and the second shows the exciting development happening this week at the Publix site, which will also include five additional retailers.
