Have you ever ridden by Lindsey Garrett Post 64 of the American Legion and wondered who Lindsey Garrett was? If you looked closely at the sign, you would see a small dash between the two names. Actually Lindsey and Garrett are two men for whom the post was named in 1925 when it was chartered as Walton County's first American Legion Post. Broadus B. Lindsey and William Grady Garrett were Walton County soldiers killed in action in World War I.

It was a great time

Yesterday was exactly what we hoped History on Tap would be.

A 1920s Ford dealership, full of people who believe historical locations like this still matter.

And the room felt full in the right way. Thanks to everyone who came out!

Stay tuned for more events!
