On Wednesday, August 16, at 10:00 a.m., the Lowndes County Board of Commissioners will break ground on a new Community Center in Naylor.  Voters approved the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax project via referendum with the passage of SPLOST VII.

Designed by J. Glen Gregory & Associates, the 2,417 square foot center is being constructed by local contractor, Kellerman Construction, at a cost of $255,997.00.  Facility amenities will include a kitchen, dining/meeting room, and restrooms.  The estimated completion date for the project is January 12, 2018, after which the center will be transferred to the Valdosta-Lowndes County Parks and Recreation Authority for operation.

The event location is 6030 Savannah Avenue, Naylor.  Citizens are encouraged to attend.
