Save Our Canopy Road

Lowndes County has picked the low bid to grub and clear the right of way on Quarterman Road starting Wednesday 12 November, unless the County Commission decides otherwise at its meeting of Tuesday 11 November. That means they’re going to tear down this canopy:

Quarterman Road

The majority of the households who live on Quarterman Road don’t want the road paved. Please help us stop the county from tearing down this canopy to pave the road.

Here’s a video drivethrough, and one going in the other direction.

A little farther down there’s another canopy:

Quarterman SW

Here’s a video drivethrough of that canopy.

Both these canopies will be destroyed starting Wednesday unless we convince the county commission to stop it Tuesday.

If you live in Lowndes County, please write the the county commission asking them to save our canopy road by not letting any contract to clear the right of way on Quarterman Road.

Please be polite and respectful.

Thank you.

    VOODOO ECONOMICS, CANOPY DESTRUCTION, ASSAULT BY ASPHALT
    It’s a mystery that individuals and developers throughout the country get excited about tearing down trees and digging into hills and valleys where the rareness of serenity remains. Some say they do it to improve commerce, like some strange form of money mojo attraction. It’s voodoo economics where as in ancient rituals dead birds were used to ward off evil spirits or cast a hex on folks. When the trees are cut down, the birds and squirrels will suffer casualties. The consolation prize is that one can procure bird feeders at Walmart or Home Depot. Recently in New York, strange bird dumping rituals” to purge sins was brought up in a case noted by P.E.T.A. You can easily and quickly find specific references – – – Google “birds in voodoo rituals.”

    How awful that they are planning to devastate such beautiful landscape! It’s as if they just don’t realize what beauty they are destroying. I will send this link to a few of my friends at the county.

    We should not destroy all the beauty in our community. People will come from afar to see what they cannot see in other areas of the country.
    Please let South Georgia keep a few of the ancient beauty of the Old South and not give way to dollars and profits. Especially if the citizens does not wish to to change their community.
