The Rotary Club of Loganville recently gathered at Your Pie in Loganville for a special thank you party honoring the individuals and businesses that helped make this year’s Wing Fling possible.

The celebration brought together sponsors, volunteers, participants and community partners whose support contributed to another successful year for the popular local fundraiser. It was an opportunity for Rotary members to personally recognize the many people who donated their time, resources and talents to the event.

Now in its 11th year, the Loganville Wing Fling has grown into an important community tradition. During that time, the event has raised more than $400,000 for a wide variety of local charities, organizations and community causes.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp has appointed Walton County District Attorney Randal “Randy” M. McGinley to serve as a Superior Court judge for the Alcovy Judicial Circuit.

McGinley will fill the vacancy created by the retirement of Superior Court Judge W. Kendall Wynne Jr. The Alcovy Judicial Circuit serves Walton and Newton counties.

McGinley has served as district attorney for the circuit since 2020. He began his legal career as an assistant district attorney in the Alcovy Judicial Circuit in 2011 before being promoted to chief assistant district attorney in 2017.

The Walton County 4-H BB team delivered a nearly flawless performance at the 59th Daisy National BB Gun Championship in Rogers, Arkansas, earning its third national title in commanding fashion.

The five-member team of Violet Combs, Olivia Barth, Aubrey Fendley, Freya Combs and Madisyn Everett dominated the national competition, defeating the second-place team by an impressive 57 points to claim the prestigious Golden Gun trophy.

Walton County finished with 1,928 points out of a possible 2,000, the highest score the team has ever posted and just two points shy of the NRA National BB Gun team record.
