About this event
Let’s take a trip back in time as we travel along Georgia’s famous Antebellum Trail from Athens along Georgia highway 441 to Milledgeville, the antebellum capital of Georgia.
In Athens we’ll assemble at Athens Mercedes-Benz of Athens (4735 Atlanta Highway Bogart, GA 30622 ) prior to beginning our journey south along GA Highway 441. Cars will depart from the dealer’s lot beginning at 9:30 a.m. at 3-minute intervals. Before leaving Athens we’ll take a short driving tour through the University of Georgia campus.
Our journey will take us through Watkinsville, Madison, Eatonton, and will end in historic Milledgeville. Along the way we’ll see Antebellum and Victorian era structures, as well as many historic commercial buildings. If you so desire, you can stop along the way to explore each of these towns as we make our way to Milledgeville.
Once in Milledgeville we’ll meet at the Visitor Center Milledgeville-Baldwin Co. Convention and Visitors Bureau located at 200 W. Hancock St., Milledgeville, GA 31061 (478) 452-4687. We should plan to be in Milledgeville by 1:30 pm so we can take the 2:00 p.m. Trolley tour. After the tour we can have an early dinner at a popular local restaurant, Aubri Lane's 114 S. Wayne St in downtown Milledgeville 478-454-4181 before heading back home. http://aubrilanes.com/
