Help Preserve Civil War Battlefield in Smyrna, Vinings

Learn about preserving a Civil War battlefield in Smyrna, Viinings and South Cobb at a Mableton public meeting today.

The Mableton Improvement Coalition (MIC) will host a public meeting, "Preserving the Chattahoochee River Line Battlefield", at 7 p.m. Tuesday. The meeting will discuss the importance of the Chattahoochee River Line Civil War Battlefield, which begins in Mableton along the Chattahoochee River and runs north through Smyrna to Vinings. 

Topics of discussion also include methods to preserve and protect the battlefield, potential tax advantages to property owners and new opportunities for recreation and heritage tourism. The MIC's ultimate goal is to open this publicly-owned greenspace and historic area to the public.

The meeting will be held at Whitefield Academy's Barnett Gathering Room in the Middle School Building located at 1 Whitefield Drive, Mableton.
