3. WSB-TV reports that the Heroes & Champions Camp, scheduled to start today at the University of Georgia, has been canceled without warning and without word on when or whether families will receive refunds for the four-day camp, which charged $325 to $375.

4. The state Department of Education released school-by-school results on the CRCTs Wednesday, and we’re working to make the data as local and as easy to understand as possible. Creating the charts is taking longer than we hoped, but Northeast Cobb Patch should have a full story packed with useful charts later today or Friday. In the meantime, here’s The Marietta Daily Journal’s look at the results from a countywide perspective, and here’s the state announcement with links to all the data. Here’s the article we had about the county results.

5. A Northeast Cobb murderer is due for execution July 20, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Here’s the U.S. Court of Appeals report on his appeal, with details of the crime.
