Travel advisory for those of you driving on the 11th (or 12th):
The state-wide Georgia Special Olympics fall games will be held at a facility about 2 miles from the Adventures headquarters from October 10 – 12. This event is expected to attract as many as 4 – 5,000 participants and spectators. We are anticipating that traffic congestion and parking will be serious issues at the intersection of Rt 129 and Nopone Road throughout that three day period. We are providing alternate driving directions from that intersection HERE, should you need them.
