Sources and how this guide stays useful
The date window follows the current Friday–Sunday in Georgia. Ended or cancelled visits are removed; the full event guide remains available for other dates and towns. Organizer details can still change after a check, and saved calendar copies do not update automatically.
Extra visit notes are tied to the facts we reviewed and are hidden when those facts change or the review becomes old. Suggested visit lengths are editorial guidance, not firsthand observations or reserved time slots.
