Macon-Bibb County traveled to Japan,
including Bibb County School District
students who visited Kurobe and Tokyo.
The adult delegation visited Kurobe and
attended the annual Southeast U.S./Japan
(SEUS/Japan) Conference in Tokyo, bringing
together leaders from across the Southeast
and Japan to build partnerships that drive
both economic and cultural exchange. The
newest branch of Middle Georgia Regional
Libraries, the Cathy Ivey Community
Library, opened on Forsyth Road in October.
People & Pets Project has spayed 401
cats and dogs in the last year. Dedicated
to implementing impactful interventions,

December 19 at Macon Area Habitat for
Humanity.
