Show notes

Two centuries of stories, one city ready to celebrate. We’re kicking off Thomasville’s bicentennial with guest April Norton, exploring how a birthday becomes a living, year-long collaboration that blends history, community action, and a whole lot of local pride. From a free, family-friendly opening celebration with live music and partner booths to a citywide “200 Initiative,” we share some ideas and practical steps that will make this milestone matter.
Want to take part? The 200 Initiative invites you to do “200” acts that fit your mission—plant roses, read to kids, organize service hours—and maybe earn a custom challenge coin. You can also grab bicentennial merch at the visitor center and follow updates at Thomasville.org. Join the celebration, share your “200,” and help shape the next chapter of Thomasville’s story!
