The Geezer Gang is a group of elderly gentlemen, mostly from the Douglasville area, who get together for lunch on alternate Wednesdays. We call them Geezers because, traditionally, they have all been retired and in their 60's (or even older). We say gentlemen, but that is only by accident, ladies are always welcome, as are any other guests you might wish to bring, including children. However, everyone is expected to pay for their own meal.
We meet at 11:30, have lunch, chew the fat for awhile, reminiscing about the "good old days" and working out the most perfect solutions for all the worlds problems. If only someone would listen to us.....
We are mostly veterans (although that is not a requirement) and when I, the Douglas County Genealogical Society WebMaster first got involved, some 15 to 18 years ago, there were easily two dozen of us. However, unrelenting problems with age, health, and relocation's (as well as occasional visits by the Grim Reaper) have reduced the total roster to 14, with only 4 regular attendees, and another 2 to 3 occasional attendees. So, please consider joining us, at least once. We believe you will enjoy it - and maybe become a regular, helping halt the demise of the group.
We meet every other Wednesday (every 14 days) and just rotate through the list (below). Our next meeting location can be determined by stepping through the list below. Begin with the fact we kicked off 2024 with a visit to Cracker Barrel on the 10th of January, and just count off the number of two week intervals since. We would love to have you join us.
Of course, if you will drop an email to the , including your name (so I can identify your email address in my list), you will receive an email notification of each lunch location one week in advance (the previous Wednesday) and a follow up reminder on the Monday just prior.
The list of restaurants changes occasionally, as they close, stop serving lunch or otherwise become unusable or undesirable. However, we always strive to have something on the list to keep everyone happy. The current list, which we just rotate through (in the order listed) is:
