    You should have parked by Euharlee Creek and shown it! It is a highlight of the town!

    The Silver Comet Trail starts on the northwest side of the Atlanta area and goes 60 miles west to the Alabama state line.

      It goes even farther but when you hit the Alabama line it turns into the Chief Ladiga Trail. The most scenic part of the Comet Trail is from Dallas to Cedartown.

    The Meggitt plant used to be a Goodyear plant, they make fuel tanks for military helicopters now. That cute little neighborhood across from it is called Goodyear Village. I live near the back side of rhe plant. I fly R/C planes at the old golf course beside the plant a good bit.

      I moved to Cedartown two years ago from Marietta, glad to be here. There's also a great dirt bike playland called Highland Park just south of town.

    Clothes made from a cotton home spinning wheel of cotton thread were then made into cotton clothes. Thus, home spun cotton. The Home Spun Festival gets its name from that.

    This elementary school, built by Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company soon after they opened a factory in Rockmart, is typical of other schools of the era. It is no longer in use. The Rockmart plant of Goodyear Tire & Rubber was responsible, for many years, for the production of the giant balloons used each year in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

    In these old towns you have to know the history to find the old hospitals....my sister was born in Metter, Ga in hospital which was a converted 2 story house downtown at that time
