Toccoa-Stephens County Day Held in Atlanta


The theme for Tuesday's Toccoa-Stephens County Day at the Capitol was "All Things Currahee" and representatives from Toccoa and Stephens County had the opportunity to see and be seen by leaders at the state level.  Toccoa-Stephens County Chamber Chair Lee Ellen Fields said that it is very important for local representatives to spend time in Atlanta meeting with state officials at events like this.  “We had a photo op with the Governor and had a brief word with him,” said Fields. “We had lunch with people from the Department of Community Affairs. Rep. Dan Gasaway had lunch with us and we saw Sen. John Wilkinson. After lunch, we split up and saw a lot of other people who contribute to the well-being of this community.”  Also, Currahee Club golf course designer Jim Fazio was featured at the State Capitol as the Georgia legislature passed a resolution declaring Tuesday as “Toccoa-Stephens County All Things Currahee Day.”
