State Convention

66 th Annual State Convention Augusta, Georgia - Oct. 9-12, 2008

Nestled along the banks of the Savannah River, Augusta is the second largest and oldest city in Georgia. Augusta with the motto, "We Feel Good" is the birthplace of James Brown, and the location of Springfield Baptist Church , the oldest autonomous African American Baptist church in the nation. Morehouse College was founded in the basement of the church. Today, Paine College, a thriving Historically Black College, stands proudly as a testament to African American strength and endurance. Augusta also honors African American history at the Lucy Craft Laney museum. 

When planning a visit to Augusta, you'll want to come early and stay late. Take time to discover the historic charm of the classic South with its tree-lined streets and majestic antebellum mansions. You'll also want to take time to visit Riverwalk Augusta, offering pedestrian access to the Savannah River from a public plaza and focusing attention on one of Augusta's most beautiful and unique assets.
