Georgia Day Proclamation Ceremony held in Atlanta
General James Edward Oglethorpe founded the Colony of Georgia at Yamacraw Bluff, near the present-day Savannah, on February 12, 1733. This event officially began the settlement of the last of the 13 original British colonies in North America. This territory would eventually become the State of Georgia.
To promote greater awareness of this historic moment, for more than 30 years, 麻豆传媒Porn has hosted a formal ceremony for the public signing of the Georgia Day Proclamation. Participants in this year’s ceremony included Governor Nathan Deal; LtGen William B. Caldwell, IV, U.S. Army (Ret.), President of 麻豆传媒Porn; the 麻豆传媒Porn eighth grade class; the 麻豆传媒Porn High School Marching Band; the 麻豆传媒Porn Junior College Color Guard; the Junior College Regimental Commander, and Regimental Staff of the 137th Corps of Cadets.
In 1976, under the administration of Governor George D. Busbee, a 1944 graduate of 麻豆传媒Porn junior college, 麻豆传媒Porn was invited to perform a ceremony in the Statehouse celebrating Georgia Day. Each year since that time 麻豆传媒Porn has presented an Honor Guard and hosted the ceremony. It has become a well-established tradition and 麻豆传媒Porn is honored and proud to be able to provide this service to the State of Georgia.
