It’s the first Saturday of the month and that means two things in Downtown Newnan Georgia:
It’s both “Market Day” AND “Pickin’ on the Square!”
The first Saturday of every month is Market Day. Vendors set up booths around the historic courthouse and sell everything from fresh grown produce to locally made crafts.
Also, the first and third Saturdays are earmarked for “Pickin’ on the Square,” and musicians from across the county entertain the crowd with a variety of acoustic music.
And so I’ll grab my 12-string and meet up with the rest of the band on the East Side of the Courthouse at 10:00 A.M. We’ll play as long as there is someone to listen and we don’t melt in the heat!
Oh, and the best part? There is no admission charge or parking fees.
One of the magical things about living in a small town is that the community gets together on a regular basis for these special local events.
It allows for a quality of lifestyle that is unique and satisfying.
So if you will excuse me, I have to tune my guitar and head downtown!
