The festivities will soon be under way for the annual Christmas on Liberty.

I was coming through town as I saw them moving Santa's house in and decorating the tree.



Join us in beautiful, historic downtown Waynesboro for our annual Christmas on Liberty Square Victorian-era festival.
Family fun with activities for all ages, and plenty of Christmas cheer! Vendors provide plenty of hot chocolate, cider and goodies and DOOR provides a ton of fun!
It promises to be a great evening filled with exciting events and period costumes.
You won't want to miss Santa Claus as he makes his entrance on the fire truck and opens the evening's festivities.

Please note that there is plenty of public parking available on Myrick and Shadrack Streets which flank Liberty Street.

This event is sponsored by DOOR the Downtown Organization of Retailers.

Wishing you all a Wonderful Holiday Season!!

People looking for rentals in Waynesboro Ga

I have already received numerous emails asking about rental properties in the Waynesboro Ga and areas surrounding communities. I do know of 1 current possibility I will speak to the owner and see if we can get a flyer up on this home in Millen Ga.

I do realize that there is a huge shortage of rentals within the area for folks coming to work at Plant Vogtle. I will do my very best to try to find owners that would want to rent rather than sell at this time. If you are a Homeowner that would consider renting your home please contact me at 706-558-0042 or Marie@mariesProperties.com although I can not personally oversee the rental aspect of your home I do work with Rental Management companies that do.

Please check back regularly to see what we have come up with. And Welcome to Waynesboro.
