Thursday Evening
The Conference reception, beginning at 7:00 PM, will be held in the former
passenger shed of the Central of Georgia Railway. The building now houses the
Savannah History Museum, and thus offers a useful introduction to the history
of the region and the trains that rolled through the building. Professor John
Duncan, a colorful and noted expert on the history of Savannah, will present a
slide show to introduce you to the city. The reception, included with
registration fee, will serve hors dÌoeuvres and offer a cash bar. Trolley
rides or guided walking tours will be offered to get you from the hotel to the
Savannah History Museum. (About 1 mile, as the crow flies).
