Someone once said that being a journalist is like having a front row seat to history. Well, I've been sitting in that seat for more than 15 years and I want to share the view with you. Front Row will keep you informed of what's really going on in your community and across the nation. Send news tips, pictures, or videos to michellemccalope@gmail.com. I'd love to hear from you!

Date Auction Raises more than $25,000
Bachelors and Bachelorettes in the Golden Triangle went on auction Thursday night for the Ubi Caritas fundraiser. The fundraiser was held at Madison's restaurant. Ubi Caritas provides affordable healthcare for children. Participants were paired with a package that included tickets to a Texan game or a fishing trip, or a golf outing, just to name a few. Participants competed in a live auction. Some of the packages raised more than $1,000. Six News Anchor Bill Leger emceed the event. The participants included Nicole Murray, Ashley Gaston, Ivan Lemus, Alex Murphy, Cody Schroeder, Amy Whitman, Bill Jack Lynch, Jason Richards, April Hecker, Marcie James, Brooke Vernon, Nathan Tice, Marissa Wheeler, Jody Nolan, Roy Culver, Lisa Taylor-Cowart, Shannon Golf, Scott Frederick, Trey Ricks, Tiffany Martin, and Rhianna Rae Artz. Congrats to Ashely Gaston for a very successful event!
