Retired educator Etta Mann was recently recognized by Beaufort County Council for leading the effort to establish the official seal of the County Council of Beaufort County. Others recognized at the January County Council meeting were William McBride and Grady Thames.

The 2014 theme for the annual County Land Preservation Calendar called for photos representative of the five symbols within the county seal. The cost of the calendar is now only $10 and can be found at many local stores or online at www.bcgov.net.
