When the eye of Hurricane Michael passed over Calhoun County, the bleachers at Sam Atkin’s Park were destroyed. This county owned park is heavily used by the residents and the communities surrounding Calhoun County. Calhoun Liberty Employees Credit Union has donated 8 sets of bleachers, valued at $50,000, to replace the ones damaged for the four main ball fields at the park. The Department of Corrections assisted the county, using two local inmate crews to assemble and install the bleachers. This donation is part of the Credit Union’s on-going commitment to make a difference in the communities they serve. [Full Story »]
