Therapy dog Blanche
SUMMARY: Saint Alphonsus Catholic School in Ocean Springs has adopted two therapy dogs, Mabel and Blanche, to benefit the students. Amy Nemo, the admissions director at the school, rescued five puppies and found that Mabel had a natural ability to be compassionate. She decided to train her as a therapy dog and bring her to the school. Mabel has been a great comfort to students, knowing exactly who needs her presence. Blanche, Mabel's sister, recently completed her therapy training and will also provide support to the students. The dogs help students relax, enjoy reading, and provide a stress-free environment. They will alternate their services at the school every other week for three days at a time.

SUMMARY: A 35-acre oyster reef is being built in Bay St Louis as a recreational fishing spot and oyster landing ground. Agencies are working to repopulate oysters by creating places for them to attach and mature, with mounds of limestone being constructed vertically to serve this purpose. Tom Morman is spearheading the project, with the goal of oysters growing, reproducing, and drifting to commercial reefs downstream.
