The City of Barnesville would like to clarify the roles of the City and the Barnesville-Lamar County Chamber of Commerce during Buggy Days.

The Barnesville-Lamar County Chamber of Commerce is responsible for coordinating the Buggy Days schedule, vendor and food tent locations, generators, Food Truck locations, parade route and lineup, port-o-lets, entertainment, and fireworks show.

The City of Barnesville is proud to support Buggy Days by providing Police and Fire protection, maintaining emergency access, providing barricades and garbage cans, and helping maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for our citizens and visitors.

The City serves in a support role alongside the Chamber to help make Buggy Days a safe, successful, and enjoyable event for our entire community.

A big thank you to the Barnesville-Lamar County Chamber of Commerce for all the time, planning, and hard work that goes into making Buggy Days possible each year! We appreciate your dedication to bringing this special tradition to our community and look forward to another great Buggy Days! 🎉

🚨🚧🦺 Atlanta Gas Light (AGL) technicians are busy working on natural gas lines in Barnesville. They are locating and replacing 18,000 linear feet (3.5-miles) of gas lines between now and early next year. They are replacing older metal pipes with safe, plastic or polyethylene lines. The new, yellow gas lines are either 2-inches or 4-inches wide. This project will take about 5 more months to complete, and the result will be a safer, more reliable gas system for Barnesville residents.
