SnoBiz® A Popular Choice of Capitol Unit Club Members

Need a great way to beat the heat?  Club members at the Capitol Unit have found a way by enjoying snocones from Sno-Biz on Northside Drive every Friday.  Andrell Harris and Vanessa Taylor who own and operate their own Sno-Biz business come each Friday and set up the booth at the Unit for the children.

Mississippi Department of Corrections Teams Up With Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Mississippi To Launch Public Service Announcement Campaign

 "Be Smart, Choose Freedom" is a series of public service announcements produced by the Mississippi Department of Corrections.  This is part of the agency's efforts to help improve the quality of life for Mississippi families by discouraging young, at-risk youth from becoming criminal offenders.  This is a proactive approach in crime prevention.

Commissioner Chris Epps joined Billy Redd, President/CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Mississippi and Daryl Neely representing Governor Barbour at the Capitol Unit Teen Center for the press conference.  To view these public service announcements follow the link:
