• Area lifters blast through districts: OHS, KHHS, CHS titles (claytodayonline.com) — Keystone Heights High’s boys weightlifting team dominated district competition at home, sweeping team titles and stacking up individual wins led by defending state champion Elijah Mize. The Indians will now host the Region 4-1A championships on April 24, drawing top lifters back to town as they chase more state berths alongside strong showings from Clay, Oakleaf, Middleburg, Ridgeview and Fleming Island.
   

• Arrests and Bookings 04/16/26 (claytodayonline.com) — Keystone Heights residents are included in this week’s Clay County arrest and booking report, which lists names, ages, hometowns, and charges for each case. The log spans several days and covers a wide range of alleged offenses across the county, while emphasizing that all listed individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
   

• Clay County under countywide burn ban (actionnewsjax.com) — Clay County has issued a countywide burn ban, but it applies only to unincorporated areas, not inside Keystone Heights city limits. Residents outside town boundaries must avoid campfires, fire pits, and yard-debris burning or face penalties. The ban will stay in place until significant rain eases the extreme drought risk.
