City of Hahira Announces New Special Event Coordinator;

February Third Thursday Restructured


Hahira, GA -
 After a lengthy search, the City of Hahira recently hired a new Special Event Coordinator.  Sherri Burgess will work with the Hahira City Council and Hahira business owners to enhance economic development opportunities in Downtown Hahira.  She will coordinate special events and implement new ideas for the citizens of the City of Hahira.  

 

Mrs. Burgess has experience with event planning and retail business management.  A long-time resident of Las Vegas, Nevada, she and her husband, Paul, are newcomers to the Hahira area.  Paul recently retired as Chief Master Sergeant with the United States Air Force.  "We are tremendously pleased to have Sherri join our team," stated Hahira Mayor Wayne Bullard.  "Her talents will only enhance the quality service that citizens of Hahira and the surrounding area have come to know and love in our City."

 

Many events are currently in planning for 2011 in Hahira.  However, because of the transition, Third Thursday will not have the traditional activities that patrons have come to know and love.
