• Mike Ebert takes new athletics role at Snook Christian following retirement from BCBE schools (gulfcoastmedia.com) — Perdido School families may recognize longtime coach Mike Ebert, who once led teams there and is now taking a new role at Snook Christian Academy. After retiring from Baldwin County public schools, he’ll serve as associate athletic director, head baseball coach, and football assistant, keeping his decades of experience — and his focus on local kids — close to home.

• South Alabama Land Trust protects 238 acres near Splinter Hill Bog in Baldwin County (gulfcoastmedia.com) — A new 238-acre Dyas Creek Preserve near Splinter Hill Bog will help protect wetlands that feed into the Perdido River, just north of many Perdido-area residents. South Alabama Land Trust says conserving this high-growth area now will safeguard rare pitcher plant bogs, improve downstream water quality, and potentially open future opportunities for guided access and environmental education.
