Magical weekend at Habersham Mills! Peaceful, zen modern accommodations - perfect getaway! Melissa was wonderful and welcoming and we enjoyed meeting Rick! Such a unique property rich with history and now with modern touches! We look forward to coming back!Lauren2015-07-19T00:00:00Z
Our stay at the mill was everything we hoped for and more! We had a great time exploring the grounds. The design of the shed was flawless.. we absolutely loved it. Melissa and her family were amazing hosts and definitely went above and beyond to be sure that our stay was perfect. We will definitely be back soon!Katie2015-10-25T00:00:00Z
This place was absolutely amazing! Definitely going to go back! The hosts were very informative and great as well! The Mill is sitting right on the banks of a beautiful river. There's picnic tables and fire pits on the river bank behind the mill also. Truly one of my favorite places now! Waking up to the autumn colored leaves right outside my window were so beautiful! And the local handmade soaps were lovely also!Amy2015-11-01T00:00:00Z
I took my boyfriend to the mill for his birthday. We had the absolute best time! It is absolutely beautiful and we had everything we needed! We visited three wineries and three waterfalls. It was amazing! We will definitely be back!Aliza2015-11-08T00:00:00Z
Cori Williams, the host, was wonderful. She made sure we had everything we needed. The Shed Space was absolutely what I hoped it would be and more. Staying at the Habersham Mills complex in the Shed Space was truly a unique experience. I can't wait to go back.Amy2014-05-19T00:00:00Z
This was our first experience with airbnb and what an experience it was. The space looks just like the pictures but perhaps the most amazing part of this trip was the portion of the grounds that aren't shown. Overlooking the water is a fire pit, comfortable seating, and plenty of beautiful sights to keep your attention. This was such a relaxing weekend enjoyed by my wife and I and our two dogs. Joanna was wonderful and accommodating. Such a fun and easy trip - we will definitely be back!Kaitlyn2014-11-02T00:00:00Z
Wow. This AirBnB experience was by far the best we have yet to encounter. Both in terms of living space and accommodating hosts this trip has fully exceeded our expectations and set a new bar for others to reach. The space: the shed was truly a remarkable living space. In case the modern rustic design of concrete, iron, brick, and wood wasn't charming enough, the large glass window panes that placed you in the middle of your own personal forest sure did the trick. The rain showerhead, clean comfy bed, quaint kitchenette, and quiet structure added an extra layer of satisfaction not only to us but to our wallets as well. The surrounding ambience: the Habersham Mill was what really set this AirBnB apart. Everything about the environment was no less mystical. If you are looking for a peaceful, enchanting, relaxing get away there really is no better recommendation. The grounds around the shed include a beautiful waterfall for swimming, a baseball field from the 1800's, several fire pits, a hammock, and of course the historic abandoned Habersham Mill to explore. All in all, hosts are extremely accommodating, lots of hiking in the surrounding areas, and it is a recommended location for a couple's retreat.Ivy2014-09-01T00:00:00Z
We had a great stay at Habersham Mills. This place is definitely a gem. We were pleasantly greeted by our host, Joanna, who helped us become acquainted with our room, and gave us a wonderful, informative tour of some of the property. She was very respectful of our privacy and simply let us know that she was available if we needed her. We stayed in the Shed which I chose for the screened porch and large windows (the largest window opens entirely and is not screened, which was a plus), but after seeing the other spaces you truly can't go wrong with any of them. Everything is so tastefully designed with amazing attention to detail. Loved that our room had a coffee press (and coffee) and a cool hand drawn map of the property;). The old mill village is truly unique (and so fun to explore). It was great to learn from Joanna and her husband about the rich history of the area. After a nice dinner close by in Clarkesville we came back for some wine riverside (which is accessible through one of the old warehouses just a very short walk from the Shed). The space by the river had a great firepit area (stocked with wood and paper) as well a gorgeous screened in area. Overall, this has been one of my favorite places to stay. I recommend tacking it on to the end of a backpacking trip in the North Georgia Mountains! We will be back at some point soon, for sure.Anna Marie2014-10-14T00:00:00Z

I absolutely loved Kelly's place! The location was super convenient to all things of interest in northern Georgia. The apartment is super cute just like in the pictures! The bed was comfortable, the decorations were modern, and the amenities were perfect. Kelly left a nice basket with goodies which we enjoyed greatly. We also enjoyed the nice selection of coffees each morning. The only thing we had trouble with was The Roku TV. Of course that was just user error, us old folks couldn't figure it out! I'm sure if we had called Kelly she would've been happy to explain it to us! LOL In our first day, we went into the salon and met Nathan and he gave us information about local wineries. We later ran into Kelly and she offered suggestions of places to eat. We went to the Attic, which she recommended, and it was outstanding! We found things to do in Clarksville, which is only about 5 miles away. We also took day trips to Anna ruby falls, Helen Georgia, and Dahlonega. If you're on the fence about whether not to stay in Demarest, I would definitely recommend you go ahead and book this place!Jane2016-10-23T00:00:00Z
Kelly's place is very special. The space is unique and very attractive. It was hard to believe I was in a small Georgia town. Kelly is a very thoughtful host and did everything to make our visit pleasurable. We hope to return soon.Vicky2017-02-19T00:00:00Z
We were suprised and fortunate to find such a nice place. Kelly and Nathan certainly do a wonderful job at making you feel at home to the very smallest of details. I would highly recommend this affordable cozy place in Norhtern GA. We plan on coming back again.Jochen2017-04-23T00:00:00Z
This was a great place, well decorated and designed well. Kelly's communication was great, and the surrounding area was quite.Brandon2017-03-26T00:00:00Z
Excellent. Highly recommendDavid2017-01-11T00:00:00Z
Kelly's place is the perfect spot for a quick getaway out of the city and in to the country where you can still get a taste of rustic modern luxury. You're greeted by a spotless house, and a basket full of goodies. Kelly's hospitality is wonderful, and she just asks the same from you in return as a guest. If you're ever visiting a nearby city, or making a pit stop in Demorest, don't waste your money on a hotel, stay at Kelly's Downtown Studio. You'll be happy you did!Ashley2017-05-24T00:00:00Z
The studio was perfect for my wife and I. A quick overnight stop here was superior to nearly any hotel. Kelly was a sublime host. Our welcome basket had items that accounted for my wife's allergies. She also made reservations for a restaurant that was perfect for what we like. A great choice!matthew2017-05-07T00:00:00Z
Kelly was super responsive. She prepared a welcome basket full of treats for our New Years trip to the mountains. The studio met our needs and exceeded our expectations!Jenny2017-01-01T00:00:00Z

Had a wonderful time! We stayed in the Carriage Loft. The property the loft sits in is beautiful and exceeded expectations. Looking forward to another trip to the area again.Amelia2017-04-10T00:00:00Z
Excellent choice! Beautiful scenery and very comfy accommodations. We enjoyed the hiking trails "on-site", as well as the other hiking opportunities in the nearby vicinity. If we had more time, we would have done the zip-lines too. Becky and Mark were gracious and friendly hosts, extending personal consideration with emails to see if we needed anything and by leaving the entry gate open, when weather was rainy, so that we didn't have to get out of the car in bad weather. Its the kind of place you would like to go back to and spend more time.Jerry2017-04-25T00:00:00Z
If you want peace and quite this is the place to come. The Carriage Loft is secluded, peaceful and very comfortable. The local area is well worth discovering, we found lots to do in our five days here. Recommended!Jenny2017-05-20T00:00:00Z
The loft was just great. Plenty of room for a family of four to stay comfortably. Becky's hospitality was first class. We will tell our friends. Thank youjimmy2017-04-15T00:00:00Z
Becky's place was lovely and secluded. Everything in the listing was as described. I would recommend staying here.Casey2017-04-20T00:00:00Z
Good place to relax for a couple of days and to enjoy nature!Theresa2017-05-07T00:00:00Z
Perfect getaway. Beautiful scenic views wherever you look. Very quiet and relaxing. Close to Helen and only an hour from Highlands NC for shopping and restaurants. The cabin was very roomy and comfortable. Definitely would love to come back again.Charlyn2017-05-13T00:00:00Z

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.Lee2016-12-10T00:00:00Z
Jamie and Cindy's little loft is absolutely perfect. They've taken care to make sure that every important detail of staying away from home is on point and it makes the entire process easy and relaxing. The floor plan is just right, the bathroom is cute, and the bed is so comfortable... especially the covers. It stays dark in the morning so be sure to sleep in late and enjoy the privacy. We heard no one during our stay and can't wait to go back for a summertime dip in the pool. It was a great experience.Matthew2017-05-23T00:00:00Z
This place is amazing! I stayed here while taking a class at John C. Campbell Folk School (it's a 10-12 min drive to the school) and it was the perfect week. Jamie and Randy have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and cozy. From the surprising amount of storage to the sweet welcome basket you will feel right at home here. Super comfortable king sized bed. Hot shower with good water pressure. Giant TV and fast wifi. Great kitchenette so you don't have to eat out all the time. Conveniently close to Murphy, Brasstown and Hayesville. The property is quiet and the airbnb is detached from their house so you don't have to worry about disturbing anyone if you're a night owl. Don't pass this up! It's so much better than a hotel!Ashley2017-04-22T00:00:00Z

This place can only be described as magical! From the minute we arrived we were astonished by the rustic beauty all around us. It simply must be experienced. Our host couldn't have been more kind, friendly and informative. Having spent only one day there, we knew this was a place we will visit many times. Thank you for sharing this wonderful place.shaun2017-02-25T00:00:00Z
This place is perfect for a weekend getaway. We loved roaming the property and even ended up ditching a few of our weekend plans so we could spend more time in this beautiful location. The loft is gorgeous and very comfortable, with really good attention to detail. I brought my mat to do yoga in the morning by the waterfall, and it was a really great experience. I loved it, my boyfriend loved it, and our dog did too. You can tell they have very lovingly worked to preserve the feel of the mill while creating a very contemporary and comfortable space. It's cool to get to see it while its still in transition. There are tons of buildings on the property that haven't been renovated yet, and the place seems bursting with potential. It's a very special place. The host was great and very helpful when needed, we definitely felt taken care of. I highly recommend.Julia2016-04-17T00:00:00Z
Reasons it is a 5-star rental: Excellent Communication with Hosts: Hubs & I decided we'd go on a spur-of-the-moment/same day trip for our 18th anniversary. We contacted the hosts 5 hours before we wanted to arrive. They responded within minutes and it took a total of 20 minutes to have the place booked. Very kind and friendly hosts! That is 5-star customer service and a rare find. Aesthetically Pleasing: We enjoyed spending time lying in bed looking up at all the unique markings in the ceiling and the bricks. I'm typically not drawn to modern minimalist spaces but, this one was warm and inviting. Hubs & I are suckers for beautiful environments and historic places. 5-star attention to detail & craftsmanship. Random Goodness: Comfy bed, linens, towels. Coffee provided. Bottled water in the fridge. Wine glasses and a wine opener. Score! No ridiculously pricey security deposit. The reading material. The property with all of the endless opportunities to explore! Late checkout. Fire pits everywhere. So clean you could eat off the floors. (aside from the random ladybugs which can't be helped) We LOVED this place and will be back! If we had a magic wand and could change anything: No shelf in shower for shampoos/soap/body wash. Found myself holding my trial-size shampoo with my teeth while rinsing before re-lathering. Small inconvenience. The lack of window coverings made it impossible to sleep late. (which was one of our anniversary goals). The sun BLASTED in early filling the room with light. Although we enjoyed the unobstructed view, a roll down shade would make this place the perfect weekend, sleep-late hide-a-way. :)Melissa2016-01-17T00:00:00Z
A great place to get out of town - close enough to Atlanta for an overnight or two. The spaces have been carefully and painstakingly restored by true artisans. Habersham Mill's history is fascinating and the vision of this restoration is remarkable. It is a peaceful place to relax with lots of outdoor activities to appeal to anyone.Anne2014-06-28T00:00:00Z
We absolutely loved our stay at the habersham mill! Melissa was so sweet and walked us through the whole property, super easy to communicate with and offered great recommendations for eating. The interior is stunning and very clean, the architect has such a great eye for furniture and finishes, we loved all the ways they reused materials from the old mill.Sarah and Andrew2015-06-23T00:00:00Z
My fiance and I visited this gem for his birthday. This is the type of place you can only dream of staying. Absolutely everything was PERFECT! We had such a wonderful and romantic weekend. It is a place you want to tell everyone about and no one about to keep it a secret all at the same time. There are so many places to explore on this property! It is like stepping back into time. The property owners and Melisa were so friendly and helpful! We will be returning for sure!! Best airbnb stay hands down. :)Georgia2016-05-01T00:00:00Z
This was a great Airbnb experience. The PO was just as pictured and extremely clean. Melissa was very responsive whenever we had questions and very attentive. The heat was not working well, so she had the caretaker bring a space heater over for us which fixed the problem. We had a great time and would recommend the PO to anyone.Maret2016-02-16T00:00:00Z

We chose this loft as we went hiking in Tallulah Gorge and Demorest was on our way back to Atlanta. Kelly and Nathan were more than accommodating. It was so easy upon arrival and the loft was so cool, clean, and perfect for our family. We were going to go out for dinner that night but we were so comfortable in the loft we decided to buy some groceries and make dinner in! I would definitely suggest staying here. We will also plan a visit back!Corey2016-12-30T00:00:00Z
Just as advertised. Very charming.Ricky 2017-05-21T00:00:00Z
My husband and I needed a place to relax over Memorial Day weekend, and Kelly's loft was the perfect spot!! The loft itself is just adorable!! It is beautifully decorated, and has everything you need to feel right at home! Actually, it feels like a cross between a cool city loft, and an upscale boutique hotel. The town of Demorest is also adorable!! We just loved how clean and well manicured the downtown area is. It is a great place to sit outside with a glass of wine and read a book! My dog also loved her walks to the pretty park nearby. We also enjoyed some great meals while in town. Sweet Breads across the street was great for brunch, and there were quite a few yummy restaurants to choose from within a 10 minute drive. We look forward to visiting again and exploring some of the waterfalls nearby. Thank you for creating such a lovely space!Roanna2016-05-31T00:00:00Z
We loved staying at the downtown loft. Easy access, good communication with the owners, and a clean space to relax after touring the vineyards in the area. Worth the price to stay even for one night!Caroline2017-04-30T00:00:00Z
The Downtown Loft was a perfect place to stay for my weekend getaway! Kelly was an amazing host that paid attention to all the details and I felt that she truly cared about her guests experience. I arrived to a wonderful basket full of goody's for my stay at the Downtown Loft. Kelly also left a goody bag for my dog. Her binder full of information was extremely helpful for my stay. I mainly went up to this area to go hiking. I was charmed by the little community of Demorest. When I go back up to North Georgia, I will plan to stay at the Downtown Loft. Thanks Kelly and Nathan for making my long weekend getaway memorable! I highly recommend staying at the Downtown Loft! Also, plan to grab a bite to eat across the street at Sweetbreads, it was a delicious recommendation from Kelly.Heather2016-07-05T00:00:00Z
Such a sweet spot in the quiet Georgia mountains! I'm tempted to keep my mouth shut and let this be my secret escape - but it's just too good to not share ;)Linsey2016-07-31T00:00:00Z
We loved staying at the downtown lift in Demorest! It was a charming place and our hostess, Kelly, was fantastic. I would definitely recommend it and hope we can return some day.Ellen 2016-07-18T00:00:00Z

We had a great time at Habersham Mills. It's a great place for a nice relaxing weekend and a great opportunity to explore some historic buildings. The facilities are great and we loved the smell of the pine the Barber Shop. We had a great time and will be back!Stuart2017-01-29T00:00:00Z
We loved our visit to the mill. While the lodgings have been renewed with a modern, minimalist design, you can't escape the history of the mill and its grounds. Nor should you. Get out and explore and get a true sense of essential Americana from a simpler time. But be sure to enjoy the modern amenities like the deck and fire pit next to the shoals of the Soque river, which runs alongside the main mill buildings. It's a photographer's playground. Peaceful, quiet, serene and only an hour from Atlanta. We ventured into nearby Clarkesville and had a couple of great meals, too. Highly recommend Harvest Habersham just off the Clarkesville square. Fantastic farm to table food. Overall, a great getaway with delightful hosts.John2014-08-31T00:00:00Z
We had an amazing time during our short visit to Habersham Mills. Joanna gave us some great tips for exploring the property and even provided a hand drawn map. We loved the industrial feel of the complex and were truly blown away by the beauty of the mill. We packed sandwiches and spent a few hours on the deck relaxing and watching the sun set. We also enjoyed the interior of our space which had a very curated feel to it. We will absolutely return - next time for a longer stay. Many thanks to our wonderful hosts!amanda2014-10-11T00:00:00Z
My boyfriend and I stayed here for my 30th birthday! The entire property is an aesthetic lovers dream escape. This was one of the most unique experiences and I don't want to give too much away about all the magical elements that made this trip so special because you really need to visit and take it all in for yourself. We can't wait to go back and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for something extraordinary. We did not get to meet the hosts but interacting with them was great. The owners of the Mill were there that weekend and greeted us and showed us around. It is truly incredible what they have done with the place. We were more than blown away at all the design/architectural concepts combined with their vision, it was a lot to take in and we couldn't get enough. We will look back later in life and always remember the memories made here for a milestone birthday. Thank you so much for sharing such a phenomenal place with others. A place like this makes life more enchanting.Lauren2016-05-30T00:00:00Z
The host was so accommodating that they met us late and even had time to give a brief history of Habersham Mills and explain the lay out of the Barber Shop apartment. The apartment was immaculate, and had everything one could need, plus it was close to places to eat and right by the river. The grounds were just what one needs to get away, a full deck by the river, closed in seating areas, fire pits, even places to walk in the woods and just enjoy nature at its best.Ernest2016-02-14T00:00:00Z
Great placeCasey2016-09-05T00:00:00Z
Our experience was so wonderful. We came up for Valentine's Day and spent our afternoon/evening exploring the grounds and marveling at how well they have been preserved. We definitely felt like we had the place to ourselves, since only a few people stay at a time and the facility is so large. The buildings stay open late, so you can visit every nook and cranny. If you visit here, be sure to swing by the baseball field (with its own stands), and build a fire by the waterfall. We absolutely plan to come back!Jessica2015-02-15T00:00:00Z

Department of Defense Takes Next Step in Modernizing Electronic Health Records
By Jim Garamone
United States Department of Defense
August 25, 2014
- WASHINGTON, Aug. 25, 2014 â The Defense Department has issued a request for proposals to modernize its electronic health records and allow DoD to share health data with the private sector and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
It is a multi-billion dollar request to replace many of the current DoD legacy health care systems. This includes Armed Forces Health Longitudinal Technology Application (AHLTA), Composite Health Care System (CHCS) (inpatient), and most components of the Theater Medical Information Program-Joint (TMIP-J), with the objective of achieving initial fielding of a modernized replacement by the end of calendar year 2016.
"We are not just buying an off-the-shelf system, we're really looking to modernize how the department delivers health care," said Christopher Miller, program executive officer, Defense Healthcare Management Systems. "Ultimately, program success will result in continued improvement in patient safety, quality of care and readiness of forces worldwide."
The RFP is the culmination of 11 months of intense work by the Defense Healthcare Management Systems program executive office. The key to the department's strategy is to engage the larger Health IT marketplace to help identify a solution approach that provides best value and meets operational requirements. This approach allows the department to leverage the latest commercial technologies, improve usability, and save on costs.
"We exposed industry early and often to our requirements development process through a series of industry days, draft RFPs, and targeted Requests for Information," program manager Navy Capt. John Windom said in a letter that accompanied the RFP. "We appreciated industry's timely input and related comments/questions throughout our iterative draft RFP release process."
Windom's office adjudicated more than 1,500 questions/comments from industry. The intense give-and-take with industry gave both industry and the government clarity in the process, the captain said.
Officials expect to select the solution in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Plans are for the initial operational capability to begin in the Pacific Northwest in fiscal 2016 with other regions added in waves. When fully operational, the system will support the health care needs of DoD's current population of 9.6 million beneficiaries.
When fully operational, DHMSM is expected to support medical readiness for DoD's military personnel and support the department's current population of more than 9.6 million beneficiaries and over 153,000 Military Health System personnel.
Interoperability is a key tenet of the proposal. Not only DoD and VA will need the information contained in the electronic health record system, but civilian health care providers also need access to support continuity of patient care. Civilian health care organizations provide nearly 60 percent of health care for service members and their families. The Office of the National Coordinator and a DOD/VA interagency program office set the protocols and interfaces that all systems will seek to align to.
Through the DoD's EHR modernization, the DHMS program executive office will also continue to improve health data sharing capabilities with the VA and private sector health care providers, officials said. This allows clinician and beneficiary access to information whenever and wherever it's needed.
The DoD is a leader in health information data sharing and it will not compromise the transition of our active duty members to veteran status, officials said.

I have teamed up with Crystal Paine (Money Saving Mom) to help promote her new ebook, 21 Days to a More Disciplined Life. If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know I am a huge fan of Crystal and her Money Saving Mom blog (I have been a loyal reader for many years). I also reviewed her first book, The Money Saving Mom's Budget, that you can read about here.
Crystal is offering her new ebook for the selling price of 99 cents from today, October 23rd through Wednesday, October 25th. Make sure you purchase your copy soon, as the price will go up to 4.99 after Wednesday. Click on the icon above to purchase your copy today!
I had the opportunity to read this ebook, and it is for anyone who feels they could use a little push to complete a large task they have been putting off, or anyone who feels they could use some assistance with jump starting some new, healthy habits. Even if you feel you have your life in complete working order, this book breaks down simple ways to start enhancing your good habits, creating new ones, and sticking with disciplined behaviors.
10 key points I took away from the book:
1. You are the problem, and the solution.
2. Start with small, achievable goals rather than large, overwhelming goals.
3. Focus on changing/implementing one habit at a time.
4. Satisfaction in one area will propel you forward to other areas of your life.
5. Write things down.
6. Find someone or something to keep you accountable.
7. Use a timer.
8. Change your thinking about yourself.
9. Learn to say "no".
10. Get things done early.
As a busy stay at home mom, I found so many things in this book that directly correlate to my daily life. This ebook is a great reminder for how I want my life to function and how to get there. I have always believed that kids need and want discipline, and I don't think adults are any different!
I will be giving away 5 copies of this ebook on the blog today. Simply be one of the first five people to comment on this post and I will email you the details. Please make sure I have a way to contact you via email.

Boot Camps in Mount Pleasant, SC Can Help Troubled Teens, if They Are Like Gateway Boys Academy
Are you researching boot camps in or around Mount Pleasant, South Carolina to try to help a rebellious teen? See how boot camps can help troubled teens and look at how Gateway's program may prove even more beneficial for your teen.
If your teen exhibits unashamed disregard for authority, forever displays defiant behavior, gets into regular and growing trouble with the law, and lacks motivation in school, perhaps a boot camp can help sort out your troubled teen.
Boot Camps in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina Can Help Boys Learn to Respect Authority
Public conception gives military schools, especially boot camps, a reputation for making badly behaved teens put their lives in order. In truth, in several positive ways, boot camps can help troubled teens. Boot camps offer an intensive focus on discipline, personal responsibility and respect for authority. Programs like these can send a powerful message to a teen who might otherwise ruin his life with crime. For the ones who are shaped by it, boot camps can give them a new understanding of the consequences of their actions. For some teens, boot camps can initially help them move from self-defeating habits, to more respectable behavior. But those bad attitudes often return.
Boot Camps Can Help Troubled Boys Change their Behavior, But Many Teen Issues Go Beyond the Behavior
Although boot camps can help troubled teens in some situations, most teenage issues are more complicated than they seem on the surface and are often only symptoms of other issues. Boot camps rely entirely on forcing compliance; they do not include the counseling or therapeutic input to help teens address the true underlying issues. For teens displaying anxiety, depression, drug or alcohol use, low self-esteem, emotional disorders, and in fact most types of rebellious behavior, the stressful boot camp environment may prove counterproductive instead, if it isn't set up in a way that the discipline is coupled with Christian love and support.
Most boot camps in Mount Pleasant, SC on their own will not speak to family issues but simply return a somewhat more compliant teen to the same home environment in which he was struggling. Then he will return to old habits. For this reasons, boot camps in Mount Pleasant, SC are typically a short-term solution at best, and may be harmful to the teen at worst. Fact is, teens often revert to past behavior after returning home from short-term boot camps, because the length of the program doesn't make the good attitudes, respect and discipline a habit in their life.
Gateway's Boot Camp and Military School, Plus It's Therapeutic Boarding School and Ongoing Counsel and Support are What it Takes to Turn Around Troubled Boys
If you find that a traditional short-term boot camp is not the best choice for your teen, but you still like the idea of what a boot camp teaches, Gateway an alternative that combines the strengths of the military approach with the therapeutic component of a therapeutic boarding school. Gateway, located in the Panhandle of Florida, is a Christian military boarding school that has served – and brought restoration to- struggling teenage boys and their families from homes all across the nation for more than 20 years. Troubled teenage boys from Mount Pleasant, South Carolina and other places receive an accredited academic program, counseling and teaching, instruction in military drill and history, and the discipline for which boot camps are renowned. Gateway offers a caring staff that cares deeply about each teen. Gateway is a military-style school that features a number of essential components that are typically missing from boot camps. Those include:
- Caring staff and mentors who provide positive role models and constructive input, not simply breaking teens down.
- Biblical teaching and spiritual emphasis, to help teens realize the true source of lasting heart change.
- Counseling, to help teens address issues and replace harmful patterns with healthy new habits.
- Family restoration through Biblical instruction and seminars for parents and families.
Boot camps can help troubled teens if they are coupled with an ongoing program like Gateway offers. We invite you to look beyond Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, for what may be the best situation your boy…a program with a boot camp element, but also ongoing instruction and therapy for a longer period of time.
Gateway is Located in the Panhandle of Florida. Boys Come to Gateway from Around the Country. Call Us!

Greetings from our Committee Leadership
Rarely does one receive the opportunity to be part of a movement that transforms the landscape of the community and impacts hundreds of people, particularly teenagers. So, too, is it rare to feel the satisfaction that comes with bringing a community together to share in an inter-generational experience of a lifetime.
In July, 2016, the Jewish Community Center of Greater Columbus will host the JCC Maccabi Games® for the fifth time, the last time being in 2004. The JCC Maccabi Games® are an Olympic-style sporting competition held every summer in North America and are one of the largest organized sports programs for Jewish teens in the world. Over 750 Jewish teens, ages 13-16 will descend upon Columbus from July 24 through 29 to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Delegates from across the United States, Israel, Mexico, Canada, and other countries will test their skills in more than 12 different sports while experiencing all that Columbus has to offer. In addition to athletic events, the week begins with the excitement of Opening Ceremonies and concludes with the passing of the Maccabi torch at week's end. In between, athletes learn the value of teamwork, integrity, cultural pride and community service, while expanding an appreciation of Jewish values, enriching their Jewish identities and building lifelong friendships.
The athletes visiting host cities stay with local Jewish families. The "home hospitality" is vital to the experience, representing the extended family and value of welcoming the stranger. Every set of Games includes a community service project called JCC Cares. The JCC Cares program allows athletes to participate in a hands-on service project to give back to the host community is a meaningful way. The basic American concept of community service in closely tied to the fundamental Jewish value of Tikun Olam (repairing the world), which obligates us to make a difference in the lives of others less fortunate than ourselves.
Hosting the JCC Maccabi Games® is a monumental endeavor that requires the commitment of over 1,000 volunteers, giving their time and opening their hearts and homes. Your chance is now. Your generosity will ensure that the Jewish Community Center of Greater Columbus shines as a first-class host surrounded by a supportive, welcoming and caring community.
We look forward to your becoming a member of the team that will make a meaningful difference in the lives of our youth to create a lasting legacy.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/26/13 -- FinancialForce.com, the cloud applications company, today announced the Winter '13 release of FinancialForce Professional Services Automation (PSA), a cloud-based solution that transforms how professional services (PS) organizations sell, resource, and deliver professional services projects. FinancialForce PSA Winter '13 reinforces FinancialForce.com's commitment to making PS teams more effective, mobile and social.
Built on the Salesforce Platform and natively embedded with Salesforce CRM, FinancialForce PSA is one of the industry's fastest growing PSA solutions. Winter '13 is based on enhancement ideas submitted online by the company's growing community of users via the FinancialForce Community. FinancialForce.com has delivered new capabilities in PSA Winter '13 to dramatically simplify expense entry and receipt capture via mobile devices. FinancialForce PSA Winter '13 also features a host of new innovations based on customer feedback to boost productivity and ease of use for services teams.
More Efficient, Mobile and Social
FinancialForce PSA Winter '13 features a new mobile expense entry application which complements the existing FinancialForce PSA timecard entry application. The new app gives highly mobile PS workforces the tools they need to focus on customer service and satisfaction and minimize the time spent on administrative responsibilities.
Mobile expense entry enables users to submit and track their expenses on their Android device, iPhone or iPad, taking photos of receipts and attaching them to expenses. Once submitted, expenses are immediately available for client billing and/or accounting for employee reimbursement. With everything centralized, PS professionals can access all the information they need to collaborate on the road, including via Salesforce Chatter, while getting their timecards and expenses entered anywhere, anytime.
PSA Winter '13 also introduces many time-saving features, based directly on users' evolving needs. For example:
- The FinancialForce Output Builder now offers automatic, scheduled project status reports. Output Builder can create project status updates directly from the data in the system, which can be automatically emailed to customers and stakeholders. In addition to keeping external and internal teams up-to-date, this capability also saves PS teams significant time and resources from the laborious process of gathering data manually, and assimilating the information into attractive and informative project reports based on the customers' needs.
- ClickLink, a FinancialForce Platform "click to integrate" tool now features Import/Export functionality to transfer integration rules and configurations between organizations. This allows integration rules to be shared between sandbox and live environments as well as sharing amongst the FinancialForce user community.
- Bulk Timecard and Expense Approval allows professionals to breeze through an often arduous process in bulk rather than manually manage approvals one by one.
"For professional services teams, maximizing their business value for customers remains the top priority," said Christine Dover, Research Director at IDC. "Mobile expense entry, bulk approval and customized real-time reporting capabilities allow consultants and services professionals more time to focus on what's essential -- customer service and satisfaction."
In addition, PSA Winter '13 includes dozens of productivity enhancements to reduce data entry, make resource assignments easier and allow more flexibility to adapt to changing project needs on the fly.
"Manual and time-intensive administrative duties consume too much of a consultant's time, both personal and potentially billable time," said Jeremy Roche, CEO at FinancialForce.com. "This new release not only gives them an edge in mobile and social capabilities but it gives them back time to do what they do best -- delighting customers."
FinancialForce PSA Winter '13 is available immediately to FinancialForce PSA users as part of their subscription fee. The Mobile Expenses Application will be available in the Apple App Store and Google Play within three weeks. To learn more, visit www.financialforce.com.
