Good morning, dear readers! I’m Sean Peek, your host for the Dallas-Hiram Daily, bringing you the latest in local community news. Here’s what you need to know right now.

Weather Update: To start your day, let’s check out the weather. It’s a partly sunny day ahead with temperatures reaching a high of 91°F and a pleasant low of 72°F. So, prepare accordingly for your outdoor plans today.

1. Graduation Milestone at Paulding County Sheriff’s Office: In an impressive achievement, the Paulding County Sheriff’s Office proudly announced the graduation of two of its deputies, Sergeant Ashley Henson and Corporal Kevin Dutton, from the challenging Driver Instructor Training Program at the Georgia Community Safety Training Center. This two-week course is renowned for its difficulty, boasting an average failure rate of 52%.

The intensive training program equips officers with the skills and knowledge required to ensure safe and responsible driving practices in the community. The fact that Henson and Dutton, along with just seven fellow officers, successfully completed the program, despite initially starting with a group of 19, is a testament to their dedication and the rigorous nature of the training.

Sheriff Paul Ingram expressed his pride in the graduates, highlighting the importance of well-trained deputies in maintaining public safety. “Our community can rest assured that we have some of the finest law enforcement officers on the road,” he said.

Local residents can take comfort in knowing that their law enforcement officers are committed to upholding the highest standards of professionalism and safety.

2. Walmart’s Wellness Day Offers Free Health Screenings: Walmart has always been an active and supportive member of our community. Tomorrow, they’re extending a warm invitation to our residents for a special event – Walmart Wellness Day.

Taking place at various Walmart locations, including our very own Walmart in Dallas, this event promises an array of complimentary health services. Between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., you can visit and take advantage of free glucose, cholesterol, BMI, and blood pressure screenings. In addition to these essential health checks, Walmart is also offering COVID-19 vaccines and boosters, ensuring that our community has easy access to vital vaccinations.

Walmart Wellness Day is an excellent opportunity to prioritize your health. These screenings can serve as valuable early detection measures for various health conditions, giving you the chance to address them proactively. Don’t miss this chance to take control of your well-being.

3. Sanitation Bids Open for the City of Hiram: The City of Hiram is committed to delivering top-notch services to its residents. To that end, they’ve opened bidding for the “FY2022 – Town of Hiram Sanitation Service Town Project #22-002.”

This initiative is crucial for maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of our community. The bid window is open until August 4th at 4:30 p.m., providing interested parties with ample time to submit their proposals. More information about this bid project, including specific requirements and submission details, is available [here](insert link).

4. Back to School Safety Reminder from Dallas Police: With the upcoming start of the Paulding County school year on August 1st, the Dallas Police Department wants to remind all drivers about the importance of school zone safety.

As students return to classrooms and school buses hit the roads, it’s vital for everyone to exercise caution. School zones will be active, and it’s crucial to adhere to traffic rules, especially speed limits, in these areas. The safety of our young learners is a top priority, and it’s a shared responsibility that involves both law enforcement and the community.

The Dallas Police Department is committed to ensuring a safe environment for students, and they will be actively monitoring school zones to enforce traffic regulations. Let’s all do our part to keep our children safe as they embark on another school year.

Adopting a pet is not just an act of kindness; it’s a lifelong commitment to providing a loving home.

Remember, when you adopt a pet, you’re not just changing their life; they’re changing yours too.
