We are back with the last installment from the Milton Historical Society!
In the previous two episodes, we recounted many pivotal moments in Milton's history—ultimately going from rural farmland to a now thriving community—this transformation tells a quintessentially American story of progress, preservation, and purposeful growth.
In this episode, we will get some insight from Jeff Dufresne and Lynn Tinley, on how Georgia 400 changed many things, how a grassroots movement led to cityhood, and how Milton continues to balance growth with a deep commitment to greenspace, community character, and civic pride. If you love history, hidden gems, and stories that define a place—this one's for you.
With the community in mind, this podcast explores the stories, people, and initiatives that make our community unique. Each episode offers insights into local government, highlights Milton's history and future developments, and showcases the vibrant arts, culture, and sustainability efforts shaping our city. Join the conversation, celebrate our community, and discover how we're building a better Milton together.
