Howdy. You are are now reading the Polk County News Blog, jointly powered by the Tampa Tribune, News Channel 8 and TBO.com and written by Channel 8 reporter Jennifer Leigh and Tribune reporter Billy Townsend, both of whom are stationed in Polk County.
For those of you who don’t know, blog, in this case, is just an overused word for an ongoing series of short, digestible on-line news reports from Polk County. We’ll update it throughout the day and week with local news of all flavors, announcements and anything else we think is worth noting. Think of it as the on-line version of a ticker or a crawl. We hope you’ll engage with us, provide us tips and criticize us. This is an ongoing conversation for and about Polk County. We want you to take part.

“Some good news about Polk young People”
Polk County was represented by two Christian groups who preformed in the Megafest (TD Jaskes) in Atlanta in July. These are two groups of young people who are members of Trinity Worship Center in Auburndale, Pastors Charles & Judith Anderson, congrats!

Finally something new from TBO.com. This web site is hard enough to navigate. Maybe this new blog will be the start of some changes for TBO.com. Good luck Jennifer and Billy.

Hi, my name is Trevor Wilson. I am 11 years old. I attend Academy At The Farm Charter School. I am a member of the 4-H at the Academy.
I am raising a Blue Butt Hog for the Pasco County Fair. My hog’s name is
Dixie. I have been taking care of her every day since October 21,2006.She
loves to have back & tummy rubs every day. It is a FUN learning experience.
I am raising her to sale at the Pasco County Fair February 24,2007. At 6:00p.m. Any one interested in bidding on her can do so. Her pig number is 401. I have mailed out many bid letters to invite bidders. Also I have to keep a record book of Dixie.
