Hometown Throw Down

Join us for the second annual Hometown Throw

Down in downtown Lyons on September 8th, the day of TCHS’s first home game! Clubs and organizations from TCHS will have tents set up downtown with goodies. Meet the football, softball, baseball, and basketball players, as well as the track team, wrestlers, cheerleaders, and the Redcoat Marching Band. Bring something for them to autograph and take a picture with the mascot! Cheer the football team on as they do the Dog Walk downtown, Lyons, before heading to The Pit. If you would like to be involved, call Tabatha Nobles at 912524-3212.

If you enjoy meeting new friends and being active in your community, Lyons Main Street is the place to be! All of these events are sponsored locally and run by volunteers.

How do you use your Toombs County Magazines?

We often have people tell us they keep all of their Toombs County Magazines cherishing them like history books that are a testament of our community. We even had a lady tell us she used it as a “phone book” to look up numbers for her preferred providers, shops and restaurants. Recently, Janice Hernandez, Enrichment Teacher at Toombs County Middle School, dropped a note sharing how her class used the magazine for a project. The class made vision boards from magazine articles. “Toombs County kids making visions from Toombs County made visions–it was powerful, and they all had a great time doing it,” said Janice.
