Early Voting = Time Saver

Oct 15, 2008 by Stephanie

A couple of us had a few minutes left in our lunch break so we decided to take a stab at early voting. We parked, walked to the voting precinct, voted and walked back to our car in only 12 minutes!

Every Tuesday night a couple of Athens' local business owners have dinner and then bowl on a league at Showtime Bowl.
