As forecasts this weekend show temperatures nearing 95 degrees, many in North Georgia will likely try to stay cool inside. The “Beat the Heat” Summer Fan Program, sponsored by the Gainesville-Hall County Senior Life Center, works to provide local senior citizens with necessary indoor fans each summer. “As you know, summer is very hot particularly here in the Southeast, and a lot of older adults are prone to heat stroke in that time,” said Phillippa Moss, director of the Gainesville-Hall County Community Service Center.
