MOULTRIE, Ga. — The Kiwanis Club of Moultrie recently named Andy Hardin as Citizen of the Quarter.

Hardin is the head coach of the CCHS basketball team. He is passionate about his job, the boys he coaches, and God, the club said.

He recently received a lot of media attention for a noble act while on vacation: He and his wife Kendra recently went to Panama City Beach. While on the beach, a family got into trouble in the water. Hardin did not hesitate to help. Using a float his wife had purchased, he was able to save three lives. A fourth was saved by another gentleman. He would not take credit for what he did that day, but gave all the credit to God, the Kiwanis Club said.
