The Best At It!!

 ReShard Lee is a former football running back in the NFL for the Cowboys, Packers and Raiders. And he's also a good friend of mine, and an alumni of my high school Brunswick High Mighty Pirates. Lee was one of the top athletes in the state of Georgia during his tenure. At the time he was our quarterback. He led our team to the state championship game, but unfortunately we fell short. But it doesn't take away the success the football team had while he was under center. As a senior, he passed for 1,600 yards and 18 touchdowns, while running for 670 yards and 8 touchdowns, contributing to 14 straight wins. He received honorable-mention in the USA Today All-American, Class AAAA first team and WTOC-TV Player of the Year honors. After the end of the season was done, he finished his high school career with 4,175 passing yards, 56 passing touchdowns and 73 rushing touchdowns, and breaking many records in the process.

LET THERE BE LIGHT: SAINT SIMONS LIGHTHOUSE

Image
 The St. Simons Lighthouse and Keeper’s Dwelling were built in 1868-1872, replacing an earlier light station destroyed during the American Civil War. The brick tower still serves as an Active Aid to Navigation and houses the original third order Fresnel lens. Designed and manufactured in France, the lens casts its beam 23 miles out to sea. The Dwelling was home to lighthouse keepers and their families until the light was automated in the mid-1950s. In1975, the Dwelling became a museum of coastal history, operated by the Coastal Georgia Historical Society. In 1804, John Couper, owner of Cannon’s Point Plantation, deeded four acres of land at the southern end of St. Simons to the Federal government as the site for a lighthouse. In May 1807, James Gould was awarded the contract to build the St. Simons Lighthouse. James Gould moved south in the 1790s to survey timber. In 1810, President James Madison appointed Gould to serve as the first keeper of the lighthouse. Gould acquired a cotto...

Original First African Baptist Church

Image
 I'm in disbelief that no matter where I search, I cant find any type of history of the church me and my family grew up in. I really going to have to do some research from old members or something. I grew up attending what we call First A.B Church. Praising God every Sunday, bible study on Wednesdays, and whatever else is going on during the week, of course we had to be there. Because I was a child at the time, and when grandma goes you go, and if you had a grandma in the church, then you already know how that goes. But back to the story. First African Baptist Church, from what I remember is the old black church in my hometown of Brunswick, Georgia. The originally part of the church is still standing until this day, on top of added renovations and annex building over the years. First A.B. was established in 1863. The church has had it share of pastors including my pastor Reverend Pettibone and before him my godfather Reverend Wingard and many others. I have so many memories growing...

MAKING HISTORY 2021

Image
 Words can not express how much me, and my alumni nation feel about the 2021 Brunswick High Boys Soccor team this year. Now I'm not gone lie, I'm not the biggest soccor fan, and recording the games was a great opportunity for filming. As the season progress while watching these young men put it all on the field has been an amazing experience. They have definitely open my eyes to the sport or soccor and I'm also becoming a new fan. But back to the reason for this post. The boys team has been making history all year. This has by far been the best team put together in our school's history. Currently with a 8-2 record as I write this, this is the best record in school history. This year I go to witness the ending of a winning streak. A few weeks ago, they won for the very first time in school history against our crosstown rivals the Glynn Academy Terrors. Yes, you read that right, the very first time in school history. I could not believe that in the 60+ years this school h...
