I cannot think of a better way to spend a spring weekend in Perry Georgia than at the 25th annual Perry Dogwood Festival.  Both days this weekend (April 13th and 14th, 2013), Downtown Perry and the Georgia National Fairgrounds will come alive as events, vendors, and thousands of visitors converge on Perry GA.

Anita, Sounds like another great event!  We need to plant a dogwood or two again in our yard.  Our first attempt didn't fare so well.
