We live in a country where we don't think twice about going to the sink and pouring a cold glass of water from the faucet. Well, maybe we should, or at least should have. In this article we take a look at the water contamination issue in Jacksonville, NC. We will also hear from one Vet who has been significantly impacted by the contamination.

I regret to inform the Members that Bryan Ayres, our President since 2013 and Vice-President this year, has stepped down from his position. Bryan's life is fast-paced and busy, and he felt now was the right time. He remains in contact with me and I won't miss his counsel, as I still have it! And he remains available to Myron and us all to help out as Myron assumes his duties as President. You met Myron in a past issue of Root Scoop II, and I and the Board have full confidence in both his abilities and capabilities!
