Lake Oconee Area Residents Chant "Move That Bus!" as the Extreme Makeover Home Edition and local volunteers put finishing touches on a new home for a Madison family. The Emmy-award winning show "Extreme Makeover" has come to our area to embrace and enhance the lives of a 5th grader, Aniah Rucker and her family. Aniah lost a limb in an accident trying to save her sister from being hit and killed from an oncoming vehicle.
