Lowndes County announces Bird Supper tickets sale

Dec. 15—VALDOSTA — Tickets are on sale for the 2024 Lowndes County Bird Supper, scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2024, at the historic Georgia Railroad Depot in Atlanta, beginning at 5 p.m.

The event, sponsored by the Lowndes County Board of Commissioners and the City of Valdosta, brings together hundreds of state officials, local businesses, and professional and government personnel for a dinner of quail and meaningful conversations.

"Professionals from all areas affected by legislative decisions should participate in this event, such as those from the business, education, development and construction, health care, industry, agriculture, and government, to name a few," said Lowndes County Chairman Bill Slaughter. "It is important to have events such as the Bird Supper that allow local leaders to meet with and become familiar with their legislators and state officials, as both sides benefit from understanding the needs and philosophies of the other and from listening, which ultimately leads to better informed decision making."

The 2024 event is being held early in the legislative session to allow attendees to have a positive impact on the issues affecting our community, region, and state. Community members who want to stay informed on the legislative issues are encouraged to visit http://tinyurl.com/GA2024.

"Join us in Atlanta to hear and be heard during the 2024 Legislative session!"
