Thibodaux Regional Health System is pleased to announce the hiring of Aquatic Swim Coach Robert Fletcher. Fletcher, a former collegiate swimmer, brings to Thibodaux Regional 30+ years of coaching experience, produced nearly 100 All-Americans, and has seen greater than 50% of his swimmers go on to compete at the collegiate level. His coaching experience spans the United States and will enrich opportunities for all ages in our region. The Thibodaux Regional competitive swimming program will begin this month. As the community is aware, Crawfish Aquatics announced the discontinuation of its operations in the Bayou Region this past March. “When the parents of the swim team approached us requesting our assistance in continuing the program, we were happy to help,” says Greg Stock, Thibodaux Regional CEO. “Through our Wellness Center, we continue to work on perfecting and expanding sports performance. We feel that the opportunity to work with these talented, young athletes through integrated sports and wellness services, such as strength and conditioning, sports nutrition, and injury prevention, will enable high performance and help them to grow and excel in their sport.”
Most small towns, villages, cities and communities throughout the United States have a recognizable Main Street.
A public hearing on a proposed ordinance establishing a moratorium on large commercial solar facilities has been set by the St. James Parish Council for Wednesday, August 17th, at 6:00 p.m. Attorney Vic Frankiewitz, special counsel to the Parish in matters pertaining to the Land Use Plan, said the proposed ordinance will apply to solar facilities over three acres in size. If the ordinance is passed, the moratorium will be in effect until next March to allow time for South Central Planning and Development to do a study on the effect large solar facilities would have on the geographical area and the local sugarcane industry. St. James Parish officials are planning new roadways, widening existing roads and the parish hospital is planning to build a new west bank clinic near the intersection of Hwys. 3127 and 20 in Vacherie. The parish is hoping to attract new homeowners to the area and officials are unsure what effect the solar facilities would have on their plans.
South Hickory Street resident Zedra Thomas again appeared before the Aldermen and Mayor of the Town of Gramercy Monday to rectify the problem with a non-working fire hydrant near her home. Last month she made the same appeal to the municipal body. At that time Mayor Steve Nosacka said he would meet privately with her. Thomas said she never heard from the mayor and so she asked an out-of-town fireman to check the hydrant. Instead of a gush of water coming through, Joseph said there was only a trickle of water. Nosacka said he attempted to called Joseph to meet with her and received no answer. He also said Town employees told him there was nothing wrong with the hydrant.
