Most people in DeKalb County know about Lighthouse Christian Camp. But, do you really KNOW about Lighthouse Christian Camp??

In Episode 1.3 of The Tom Duggin Show with Jordan Atnip, Tom and Jordan sit down with Aaron Young, CEO & Executive Director of Lighthouse Christian Camp, for an inside look at an organization that has been making a difference in the lives of children in need throughout the Upper Cumberland since the early 1980s.

Aaron takes us behind the scenes to discuss the programs Lighthouse offers, the countless volunteers who make its mission possible, and the impact the camp has had on children and families over the years. He also breaks down what it takes financially to operate Lighthouse and uphold one of its most important commitments: no child ever pays a single penny to attend camp.

But this episode goes beyond facts and numbers. Aaron shares his personal testimony, the journey that brought him to Lighthouse, and why its mission has become such an important part of his life.

How many people does it take to make Lighthouse happen? What does it cost to provide these opportunities completely free to children? And what happens when a community comes together to invest its time, resources, and heart into kids who need it?

If you've ever driven past Lighthouse Christian Camp, heard the name, donated, volunteered, or simply wondered what really happens there, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

After nearly four decades in law enforcement, Patrick Ray is trading the Sheriff’s Office for the County Mayor’s Office — and he’s joining The Tom Duggin Show with Jordan Atnip to talk about the journey.

In Episode 1.2, Tom and Jordan sit down with newly elected DeKalb County Mayor Patrick Ray for a wide-ranging conversation about his 37 years in law enforcement, including 20 years serving as DeKalb County Sheriff, and the experiences that shaped his approach to leadership.

Ray also tackles one of DeKalb County’s most controversial and talked-about issues — the county jail. He discusses the challenges facing himself in his new role, as we as a County Commission that welcomes eight new members after the August General Election.

Then, the conversation turns toward the future. Why leave a career in law enforcement to become County Mayor? What are his priorities? And what is his vision for DeKalb County in the years ahead?

It’s a conversation about public service, difficult decisions, changing roles, and the future of DeKalb County with a man who has spent much of his life serving the community.
