Merchants Association of Columbia County presents check to Children's Hospital of Georgia
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF) – The Merchants Association of Columbia County presented a check of $150,000 Wednesday to the Children's Hospital of Georgia from proceeds raised in the Columbia County Spring Fair. 'Everyone who has experienced having a sick child, we want to make sure that they can reinvest in the healthcare that takes care of sick children,' said Dr. Ralph Turner, president of Wellstar MCG Health at the check presentation on May 7. 'The Merchants Association has been wonderful with supporting us. They did last year, they're doing it this year. And it is one of those things, that when you want into one of our facilities and you go into our NICU or you go into our PICU and you see some of the sick kids, immediately you want to do all you can to support them.'

Bristol in Pictures: Painting the town red
Not only has the sun had his hat on this week, but there have been loads of big events in Bristol. Bristol City secured their place in the play-offs and a shot at the Premier League, and the Bristol Folk Festival began. Rovers and City legends took each other on for charity at the Mem, and morris dancers welcomed in the start of May. There was also a sneak preview of the next Gromit Unleashed trail, an award win for a cutting-edge Bristol company, and a special procession through the city on Saturday morning. Sneak preview: With two months to go until the next Gromit Unleashed sculpture trail returns to the city, organisers the Grand Appeal and Aardman have released pictures of how the artists, including Paula Bowles (above), are getting on with their unique creations. All smiles: The Bristol Folk Festival began on Friday at St Georges, with Talisk (above) among the performers. The event continues on Sunday with performances beginning at 13:00 BST at both the Folk House and St Georges. Painting the town green: You may have seen Bristol's Jack in the Green heading from the Harbourside up to Horfield on Saturday. The event welcomes the summer each year, keeping alive a tradition that would have been commonplace across England a couple of centuries ago. Legends return: Past heroes from Bristol Rovers and Bristol were pitted against each other on a warm evening at the Mem this week in aid of charity Talk Club, which helps men with their mental health. Rovers took the win on a night organised by the Bristol Rovers Community Trust, Bristol City Robins Foundation and Talk Club itself. May day: Morris dancers welcomed in May as dawn crept across Bristol on Thursday, keeping their traditions alive. Revving up: Fowlers Motorcycles held the first of this summer's bike nights on Friday, bringing together enthusiasts of all things on two wheels. The events will continue on the first Friday of each month. Packed out: More than 700 people visited the popular St Werburgh's City Farm as it held its Spring Fair last weekend. Come on down: Whitehall Rugby Club hosted an all-women day at the weekend to help it develop more all-female sides at its base in the east of the city. Winners: Dynisma, based just outside Bristol, won Technology Company of the Year at the 2025 British Business Awards. Founded by former Formula One engineer, Ash Warne, Dynisma makes high-performance driving simulators for motorsport teams. Painting the town red: Year Six pupils Headley Park Primary School showed their support for Bristol City when players Zak Vyner, Joe Williams and Elijah Morrison dropped in as part of a Robins Foundation event this week. Cutting edge: The dBs Institute of Sound & Digital Technologies held a new showcase at the Loco Club at Temple Meads on Thursday, featuring cutting-edge sound art created by third year students at its Bristol campus. Brains of Bristol: Staff from 11 Bristol hotels took part in a quiz organised by the Bristol Hoteliers Association (BHA), raising £1,250 for the Brain Tumour Support Charity.
