The city of Woodbine, much to their credit, has created a wonderful public space along the banks of the Satilla River, incorporating boardwalks and an old Seaboard Coastline Railroad trestle, as well as a public boat launch. It’s also the home base for the annual Woodbine .Crawfish Festival, held each spring. If you’re ever driving along US Highway 17, you should stop here to stretch your legs and enjoy the scenery.

Though I can’t locate a date for this structure, it’s very similar in appearance to other Masonic Halls built in the 1890s. This would make it one of the earliest public buildings still standing in Woodbine.

The Georgia Girl Drive-In was owned and operated by Davis & Lillian White. Thanks to their son Mickey for bringing this to my attention.
