Twenty-one agencies ranging from municipal governments and school systems to community gardens and parks were honored Thursday for their efforts to make North Georgia healthier. The awards were part of the Celebrate Healthy North Georgia initiative, organized by District 2 Public Health and held at the Lanier Technical College Forsyth Conference Center in Cumming. “This event is intended to give ... the opportunity for all of you representing the 13 counties (in Northeast Georgia) to celebrate, educate and communicate,” said David Westfall, health officer for the district.
