What does it take to turn a beachside idea into one of the fastest-growing vodka brands in America? In this episode of The Mark Haney Show, I sit down with Matt Levitt, founder of Tahoe Blue Vodka, to unpack the wild entrepreneurial journey behind the brand that went from a solo hustle in Lake Tahoe to a top-10 vodka on store shelves across the West.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of July 13th Publish Date: July 13th From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast Today is Saturday, July 13th and Happy 84th Birthday to actor Patrick Stewart. ***07.13.24 – BIRTHDAY – PATRICK STEWART*** I'm Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Sports Turf Company Selected to Build New Cherokee High School Athletic Fields Opening Date Announced for Renovated Hickory Flat Library Woodstock Selects Construction Manager for New Fire Station We'll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you're looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Commercial: CU of GA STORY 1: Company Selected to Build New Cherokee High School Athletic Fields Sports Turf Company has been chosen to construct Cherokee High School's new athletic complex, set to be completed before the school opens in August 2026. The complex will feature an eight-lane running track, a natural grass practice field, and several artificial turf fields including those for football, softball, and baseball. The artificial turf fields will utilize AstroTurf's 3D Decade Turf system with Brock Powerbase YSR shock pad and organic BrockFILL infill, designed for athlete safety and performance. Additionally, the natural grass field will incorporate Tifway 419 Bermuda grass. The running track will feature a Rekortan B synthetic surface. This project is part of Cherokee County's broader construction plans funded by Education SPLOST and bonds. For more details about Sports Turf Company, visit sportsturf.net. STORY 2: Opening Date Announced for Renovated Hickory Flat Library The Hickory Flat Public Library is set to reopen after an extensive renovation and expansion project lasting a year and a half. The grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony are scheduled for July 25, hosted by the Sequoyah Regional Library System. The event begins at 3 p.m. with a ribbon cutting followed by tours, refreshments, and an opportunity to sign up for library cards. At 4:30 p.m., a Summer Discovery Finale event featuring a puppet show by That Puppet Guy will take place. The renovated library, originally built in 1993, now includes an additional 7,800 square feet for expanded book collections, technology, program areas, and meeting spaces. Funded by SPLOST and a state grant, the project reflects community support and leadership. For more details and event registration, visit SequoyahRegionalLibrary.org. STORY 3: Woodstock Selects Construction Manager for New Fire Station Woodstock is progressing with plans for a new fire station following a recent city council decision. The council voted 3-0 on July 8 to select John W. Spratlin and Son, LLC for "construction manager at risk" services for the project. This involves hiring a construction manager to oversee the project under a guaranteed maximum price framework. The manager will collaborate with Croft and Associates, the design firm, on technical reviews, cost evaluations, and scheduling. The new fire station, prompted by increased call volumes due to Woodstock's growth, will be located on city-owned land, likely along Ridgewalk Parkway. Construction is slated for 2025-26. Woodstock currently operates two fire stations: Station 10 and Station 14, serving essential roles in the community's fire protection infrastructure. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. Back in a moment Break: DRAKE STORY 4: ARC: Cherokee County Seeing Slower Growth Cherokee County, part of the Atlanta region, continues to grow rapidly, albeit at a slightly reduced pace. According to the Atlanta Regional Commission's 2024 estimates, Cherokee County added 5,400 residents over the past year, bringing its population to 292,360, marking a growth rate of 1.9%. This is a decline from the previous year's 2.5% growth rate. Despite the slowdown, Cherokee County's growth rate remains among the highest in the region, second only to Atlanta. Factors contributing to the overall slowdown in growth across the region include reduced housing permits, moderated job growth, and high housing prices. The ARC underscores the importance of continued infrastructure investment to sustain the area's growth trajectory. STORY 5: Downtown Woodstock Launching Summer Scratch Off Event in August Downtown Woodstock is launching The Summer Scratch Off Lottery from August 1 to August 15, encouraging shoppers to explore local retail stores. Participants can pick up scratch off cards from participating shops, each offering various discounts redeemable immediately or later in August. Additionally, shoppers can enter a raffle by providing their details on the card for a chance to win $100 in Downtown Dollars, usable at local businesses. This initiative, organized by the Woodstock Office of Economic Development, aims to promote local businesses and enhance the shopping experience in Downtown Woodstock. Winners will be announced via Visit Woodstock GA's social media in early September. Commercial: HELLER 4 – INGLES 2 STORY 6: Chatt Tech Welcomes New Board of Directors Chair Chattahoochee Technical College appointed Ford Thigpen as the new chair of its Board of Directors, succeeding Debbie Underkoffler. Thigpen, regional president of The Piedmont Bank, brings extensive civic engagement from his tenure in Paulding County, including leadership roles in healthcare and local chambers of commerce. Outgoing chair Debbie Underkoffler, president of North Georgia Staffing, was honored for her dedicated service to the college and community. Awards of appreciation were also bestowed upon departing board members Mark Haney, a retired healthcare executive, and Stevan Crew, founder of Crew & Associates, recognizing their profound impact on Chattahoochee Tech's success and community advocacy. The board, comprising leaders nominated by local industry and community figures, plays a crucial role in advancing the college's mission and fostering workforce development initiatives.
