In addition, the backcourt will look to provide some excitement of their own with big dives on the hardwood while providing relentless defensive pursuits on the ball.

The Peach Belt has returned to the three match schedule for our conference, something that we ran with two years ago. There will be plenty opportunities to see your favorite Jaguar matchups throughout the season. The rest of the schedule is filled with opponents that will challenge us every night of play whether it is at home in the 'Berry' or away. We will get their best and in turn this will prepare us for what's to come in late November and December.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) - Augusta Commission member Tina Slendak, Sheriff Eugene Brantley and more officials met with over 40 members of the Montclair neighborhood Thursday afternoon.

The meeting took place because the neighbors strongly oppose the possibility of a new Parker’s Kitchen being built in a vacant lot.

The original plan was to build a doctor’s office, and the neighbors feel lied to as the new plan seems to mean more traffic to the area.

“The traffic is a big concern. Where there were 34 accidents last year, 18 so far this year, and three in one day,” said Thomasine Deer, lives in Montclair.

Slendak says the plan for a doctor’s office fell through.

“I really think the neighborhood didn’t think it was going to be rezoned to anything that would allow for a convenience store, and I think that’s the surprise right there,” said Slandak.

Slendak says not to be upset with Parker’s or at the planning and zoning committees.

“If you want to be mad, you know your beef is with the developer,” said Slendak.

Deer says neighbors weren’t told anything, and that this caught them by surprise.

“For some people, the largest investment that they have is their home. And so you know that’s unfortunately, that’s what we’re having to go through,” said Deer.

Slendak says she is going to do everything she can to help, whether that means the project shutting down or it gets sent back to rezoning, but she isn’t sure how the ordinance would get changed.

With the number of accidents that occur in the neighborhood, Deer says having fuel trucks going in and out would be a bad idea.

The proposed Parker’s Kitchen is still in the early stages of planning, but neighbors say this was the first of many meetings, and they plan to reach out to more city leaders and explore legal actions.

Chuck E. Cheese is a lot of fun, but some adults may be hesitant to visit without a kid. There's now a solution for that.

On Monday, the family-fun giant announced the launch of a spin-off called "Chuck's Arcade" with one of the first locations in Georgia. Here's what we know:

What games are at Chuck's Arcade?

The company calls Chuck's Arcade a "modern-day love letter to the games and people who made Chuck E. Cheese great." It's particularly designed for adults with retro machines of Pac-Man, Mortal Kombat, Donkey Kong, and similar classics.

There are also games of today including racing simulators, VR games, Jurassic Park, Halo, and Connect Four Hoops.

Where is Chuck's Arcade in Georgia?

Chuck's Arcade in Georgia is located at the Mall of Georgia.

Where is Chuck's Arcade at the Mall of Georgia?

Chuck's Arcade is on the first floor of the mall across from the interior entrance of Macy's.

Does Chuck's Arcade sell food?

Unlike at Chuck E. Cheese, most Chuck's Arcades are solely arcades that don't sell food. However, one of their locations is the Chuck's Arcade and Pizzeria in Kansas City.

Where are Chuck's Arcade locations?

Chuck’s Arcades are located in malls across the U.S. in:

June 14 is set to be a busy day with Flag Day, President Donald Trump's birthday, and now 'No Kings' Day.

This is a nationwide movement against Trump and his upcoming military parade, with events in Georgia and the rest of the U.S. Here's what we know:

What is happening in Washington D.C.?

Trump is planning a lavish military parade on June 14 which marks the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary and is Trump's 79th birthday. It will include 7,500 troops, 120 vehicles, 50 aircraft on the streets and in the skies of Washington, D.C. According to a planning document seen by USA Today, the parade and a series of related events in D.C. beginning next week will cost up to $45 million.

The public perception around this parade has been incredibly mixed. While some view this as a show of strength or national pride, Markus Schiller, the CEO of a German aerospace and security company, echoed what many of Trump's opponents feel:

"There's definitely a correlation between putting on a military parade and authoritarian regime...These parades are about sending message to other countries and also to domestic political rivals."

What is No Kings Day?

'No Kings' describes itself as a nationwide day of defiance by multiple groups including Indivisible, 50501, and Stand Up America.

"The flag doesn’t belong to Donald Trump. It belongs to us. We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it," organizers said on the No Kings website. "On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings."

Where are No Kings events happening in Georgia?

Each event will look different depending on who is organizing it. Some may be simply flag-waving rallies, while others will be marches or full-on sign-waving protests. More than 20 are confirmed in Georgia:

The historic Sibley Mill was a textile manufacturing site that closed in 2006. Located between the Savannah River and the Augusta Canal, the 21-acre site has contaminated soil and several buildings contaminated with hazardous substances. The commercially desirable canal-side location provided strong incentives for the site to be redeveloped. In 2010, the Augusta Canal Authority purchased the mill to clean up and redevelop the site. The site cleanup was completed in 2018.

The Augusta Canal Authority used EPA’s Analysis of Brownfields Cleanup Alternatives (ABCA) checklist to guide the cleanup and redevelopment process. This checklist requires that the resilience of remedial options be evaluated in light of reasonably foreseeable changing climate conditions. The Augusta Canal Authority used climate change considerations provided by South Carolina Department of Natural Resources to understand and account for expected climate impacts. The site is vulnerable to more frequent and intense storms and flooding, which can impact the mobility of contaminated material left onsite.

By including current and future risks from environmental changes in its analysis, the Augusta Canal Authority was better able to understand potential vulnerabilities associated with their planned brownfields cleanup and to provide assurances to future site tenants or owners. In 2011, the Authority started a $1.3 million environmental cleanup which is expected to be highly resilient to climate projections developed for the area. Rather than isolate and cap contaminated material onsite, the Augusta Canal Authority excavated the contaminated soil and disposed of it offsite. With assurance that the site was cleaned up in a resilient and safe manner, Cape Augusta Digital Properties began a 75-year lease on the Sibley Mill complex in 2016. The property is being developed into a mixed-use technology park with a 20-megawatt data center, called Augusta Cyberworks.
