Currahee Club on Lake Hartwell celebrated the groundbreaking Wednesday afternoon for the 2013 Southern Living Showcase Home. Currahee Club Managing Director Andrew Ward said it brings a lot of credibility anytime you embark on a project with Southern Living. “This is a regional home that is promoted regionally throughout the Southeast U.S.A. and we will get a lot of exposure from this,” said Ward. “We are very excited about it.” He went on to say that he is not just excited for the club, but for the impact that the home and the publicity that goes with it could have on the local community. “What we are really excited about is they talk about potentially 15,000 or 16,000 people (that) will come and tour this house,” said Ward. “We will make sure that once they come visit the house and Currahee Club, they will not leave here without coming to Toccoa. We want them to come to the shops, stores, and restaurants in Toccoa.” Dillard-Jones Builders of Greenville, South Carolina will build the home and once the home is complete, it will open up for tours this September through December, closing for a short time in November to decorate for the holidays. Proceeds from the tours will benefit several charities including Neighbors 4 Neighbors of Stephens County and the Food Bank of Northeast Georgia.
