Residents urged to form own Destin library group
Sholes advocates shelving and volunteers to run a library with school support possible. Destin Library Board president Patterson says residents may need to form a library independent of the county system due to slim funding and long volunteer history. She offers to meet groups, donate duplicates, and help organize, with contact at 837-2657 before writing to library officials or county commissioners.

Flooding floods Dune-Allen area with high water and road damage
Residents like Rev. Bob Edgar blame chronic floods on an overrun Lake and a high culvert. The event closes courses and washes roadways in Dune-Allen and Chat Holley Road areas, stranding campers and students while officials vow action after ten years of inaction. Some Bay Elementary students miss classes while Freeport schools enjoy a holiday. Campground manager Helen McCall reports repeated flood damage and offers discounts for troubled guests as repairs lag with no immediate fixes.
