Ribbon Cutting for Marble Valley Friends

PRESS RELEASE- Congratulations to Marble Valley Friends on their recent Ribbon Cutting! Located at 5600 Highway 53 East in Tate, Georgia. Did you know the Old Tate Gym was built in 1925, thanks to the Georgia Marble Company’s commitment to education? In 1997, a passionate group of local citizens formed Marble Valley Friends to preserve this historic gem from demolition. It was officially added to the National Registry of Historic Places in 2002! For more information, call (678) 454-5477 or visit their website at https://www.marblevalleyfriends.org/

Be sure to mark your calendars for Tate Day
November 2nd from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm!
