1. An informational article outlining all of the volunteer opportunities for teens in Athens and surrounding counties (found on the Hands On NorthEast Georgia website: http://volunteer.truist.com/hng/volunteer/)
2. A features article recommending fun and inexpensive daytrips to enjoy with friends near the Athens area. For example, Stone Mountain.
3. Athens is hosting a half-marathon on October 23rd and 24th.
I think it would be interesting to interview a teen that participated and list tips on training for the next one. (information can be found on their website: http://athensgahalf.com/)
4. Bored on a Saturday? Go Geocaching around Athens!
(Don’t know what geocaching is? Go here: www.geocaching.com
5. Photography 101: Tips to make your amateur point-and-shoot photos more interesting
6. Study tips to prepare for college. Which college for which major?
7. The story behind the famous lime-green restaurant in Athens, Weaver D’s with the famous headline, “Automatic for the People”
8. An article on underage drinking: not only it’s consequences, but exploring whether or not teens growing up in the Athens area are more likely to fall victim to underage drinking due to the large bar scene/college-student-packed-downtown
9. The effects that the influx of thousands of college students has on Athen’s teen citizens each fall and spring semester.
10. The importance of blogging. http://thefuturebuzz.com/2009/05/10/reasons-you-should-blog-and-not-just-tweet/
11. I also think an article emphasizing limits on what information should go onto facebook and other social networking sites would be interesting. Warn teens about future employers doing a “facebook search” and list real-life examples of people who have lost job opportunities due to inappropriate material on facebook.
12. Students thoughts and opinions concerning the sex education taught at their Athens public school. Should schools go back to teaching abstinence only or continue teaching about other forms of birth control?
