Good morning, Jackson.

Heaven’s Cradle held the Twilight Run and Sunset Rendezvous at Union University yesterday on Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.

Residents joined a timed 5K run and a one-mile fun walk to support families and work with local hospitals (an event that has supported the community for 15 years).

A free luncheon honoring workplace inclusion was held last Thursday at Union University’s Grant Center (bringing together local agencies, employers and community leaders) to recognize those who opened doors for workers with disabilities during National Disability Employment Awareness Month.

Jackson-based Prysmian Jackson has received a $100 million investment that will double production and add roughly 100 jobs by 2028 in the Jackson-Madison County Industrial Park.

The project also honored six long-time employees (35 years with the plant) at a recent ceremony.

The Jackson Symphony is set to perform 'Brunch & Beethoven' on Nov.

8 at 2 p.m. at the Carl Perkins Civic Center and will hold a 'Christmas on Main Street' family matinee on Dec. 5 at 11 a.m., with tickets available online.

The city of Jackson and its Community Redevelopment Agency were named finalists in Capital One's $25 million homeownership initiative.

The Madison Academic Mustangs defeated the Milan Bulldogs 5-1 on Thursday in the District 14-A championship game.

The Tennessee Vols lost a 86-70 exhibition game to Xavier on Oct.

Head Coach Josh Heupel expects the Vols to face a tough test against Alabama tomorrow in Knoxville as they build on a win at Arkansas, with running back Desean Bishop recording 678 yards and 8 touchdowns and a defense that limits opponents to 15.5 points per game.
