SYLVANIA - Emotions were charged last week during a town meeting called to discuss the uncertain future facing AMI Kids Savannah River Program in Screven County and to garner community support in an effort to save the program. "The decision made by the Department of Juvenile Justice to rebid the program is a normal course of business," said Chuck McMullen, government affairs specialist for AMI with Piedmont Public Affairs in Atlanta. There were two bids in place, he said, and the D.J.J., through the Department of Administrative Services, recently issued the notice of intent to award to another vendor.
