And while North Georgia College & State University students look forward to summer vacation, many students in Lumpkin County schools will be missing the nutrition provided by the school system’s reduced and free breakfast and lunch program. NGCSU’s sorority and fraternity members helped alleviate that situation by choosing Community Helping Place as it philanthropic focus during Greek Week. Students in the 12 Greek organizations collected food items for CHP’s Summer Food Program, donating more than 3,200 individual items weighing in excess of 1,500 pounds.

NOTEBOOK Crash clears way for Newman Those NASCAR fans who have been waiting for a slam-bang finish to a Sprint Cup race got their wish at Martinsville Speedway on Sunday. In the closing laps, Jeff Gordon had passed his teammate Jimmie Johnson for the lead and was poised to deliver car owner Rick Hendrick his 200th Cup win. But just as Gordon took the lead, the caution flag flew for David Reutimann, whose No. 10 Chevrolet had stalled on the track. On the restart, Clint Bowyer made it three- wide with Gordon and Johnson going into Turn One, setting off a crash that took all three of them out of contention for the win and opening the door for Ryan Newman, who had taken two fresh tires during the final caution period, to get the victory. It capped a big comeback for Newman, who fell a lap behind early in the race because of a penalty for speeding on pit road. “We were not a dominant race car today, but we put ourselves in contention,” Newman said. “The way the strategy and everything worked out, coming in for two tires and Clint [Bowyer] kind of clearing out Turn One for us, we were fortunate to be in the right place at the right time.” Newman’s crew chief Tony Gibson said he The NASCAR tire test at Rockingham Speedway on March 6.
