Paddle Georgia will shove off on their 92 mile trip (in 7 days!) from the banks of the
Coosawattee River in
Ellijay on June 20, 2009. Details about the entire trip can be found on the Paddle Georgia
website.
Gilmer County is set to give the paddlers a big send-off. Paige Green, President of the
Gilmer County Chamber of Commerce said, "we are having a music festival in downtown on June 20
th from mid afternoon to 9pm in the city parking lot that adjoins the Times-Courier. In addition, country music star, Ty
Herndon will perform at the
Ellijay Elementary School that evening. The afternoon music festival will feature local talent and will be free to the public. Tickets for the Ty
Herndon concert start at $10 and are available at the Chamber of Commerce Welcome Center." Paige further indicated that "plans are still very fluid". Keep in touch with this blog for all the details.
