Treat today was completing the Peachtree Road Race with 12-year-old Landon. Been a fun journey over the years that began watching him *compete* in the Peachtree Junior. Thanks @ATLtrackclub and @ajc for helping make memories. #ajcprr
Thanks to @ATLtrackclub and @ajc for another well-run and fun Peachtree Road Race. Team @GABankers finished strong, @bogunz, @annemgarrard, Landon, and our CFO and club treasurer John Runnion who ran virtually. #ajcprr
Fun times with @hightowerbanks at College Football Playoff national championship game. Good to see lots of @GABankers members stopping by our tailgate before the 65-7 dominant Georgia Bulldogs win. #GoDawgs#BackToBack@UGAAthletics
With the Fed’s rate move and lots of other financial news this week there’s no better time for bank CFOs and finance teams to gather at our Financial Risk Management Conference. Committee Chair Donna Kelley of @FNBDecatur kicked things off this morning for the big crowd.
Georgia’s top ag lenders have been on the road with us visiting some of Georgia’s amazing agribusinesses. Our quick tour took us to Franklin’s Citrus Farm near Statesboro, the @americold cold-storage facility near Pooler and the bustling @GaPorts Garden City terminal.
Early voted this fine Fall Saturday. Lines of candidate and directional signs outside the polling place were lots longer than the voter lines inside. Easy peasy. #GoVote
Congrats to three favorites named by @southernliving as top BBQ places for GA: @FreshAirBBQue, @foxbrosbarbq and @southernsoulbbq. Passing through Macon and couldn’t resist stopping at Fresh Air for a pork plate. Just as good as it looks!

Thanks @cclark_georgia1 for your leadership with the @GAChamber and willingness to spend time with @GABankers association members sharing employment trends. Lots of synergies working together to create opportunities for current and next gen workers.
Thanks @cclark_georgia1@GAChamber for an incredibly thorough update and outlook for Georgia’s workforce today at our President & CEO Conference. Super helpful to member bankers as they work to retain and recruit top talent.
Some really in-depth economic data from FHN Financial’s Chris Low and commercial real estate market Intel from Michael Bull @BullRealty during this morning’s sessions at our President & CEO Conference.
