Historic Vinings Village

The Vinings Historic Preservation Society invites you to a unique interactive evening of “History and Place”, to be held Thursday, June 26, 7:00pm, at the Pace House and Old Pavilion on Paces Mill Rd. The evening will be the unveiling of Tony Doyle’s new book “Vinings Revisited.”

After 8 months of compiling research, Tony says that there is much to “re-appreciate” about a sense of this place called Vinings. Have you ever wondered how Vinings got its name? This, and more comes with a comprehensive work of historic intrigue about our own backyard.

Tony will open the evening with introductory comments and make available some surprising opportunities for members to see and feel what old Vinings was like. Included will be several present deemed the oldest and interesting of those he calls “Elders”, who worked on the railroad, knew all the players, and provided many of their stories in the book.

“This is an opportunity to become aware of just how much myth, legend, and history surrounds Vinings, and underscores the importance of it’s preservation. All that being relevant, its Thursday and a work night, so no flipcharts or long lecture. Come, learn, and enjoy.” -Tony Doyle

“Vinings Revisited” will be available for purchase beginning at 6:30, with brief discussion at 7:00pm.

The Vinings Historic Preservation Society was founded in 1993 to preserve the historic spirit and structures of the Vinings area.. The Society is an all volunteer, non-profit organization that is funded in full by local individuals and businesses. Maintenance and special projects are approximately $80,000 per year.

We need to build a financial reserve that allows the Society to strategically plan for future projects and events. Help us preserve this piece of Atlanta that is so rich in history and culture. Play golf, be a sponsor, or both on behalf of yourself, your company, your corporation or your grandchildren. We look forward to your involvement!
