Flanked by a group of children at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Lanier, Gov. Nathan Deal helped dedicate the organization’s new $16,000 computer lab Tuesday. He emphasized the importance of technological skills in gaining higher-paying jobs when those children become adults. “If you acquire those skills, I can almost guarantee you’re going to have a job, you’ll be able to stay in Georgia, you will have a very high-paying job and you will be able to do what you want to do for yourself and your family,” Deal told the children. “Your future is indeed bright.”
