"The most fun you can have with your overalls on," is how some locals describe the Woodbine Opry. Travelers on Interstate 95 can venture just 14 miles north of the Florida/Georgia border, mosey over west just a few minutes, and find themselves in the heart of Woodbine, Georgia-population: 1353 (or thereabouts). And Friday and Saturday nights are always Woodbine Opry nights.
This is where the Grand Old Opry meets Hee Haw. Where fiddles, mandolins, and banjos meld with steel guitars, harmonicas and autoharps. This is where the legendary sounds of Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, Jr., Johnny Cash and Jim Reeves revive lost loves, faded dreams and hard times. And this is where you come to suspend time, to check your troubles at the door, and immerse yourself in a night of music and remembering and smiles, and some good old-fashioned down home cookin'.
You're only a stranger once at the Woodbine Opry. And once is never enough for people who appreciate real Americana. Come along and experience a sliver of American culture that is as sweet as the honeysuckle for which Woodbine is named. Open: Music starts at 7 pm on Friday and Saturday nights. Free admission and parking.
Phone: 912-576-3027 - Address: Old Woodbine High School, 305 Camden Avenue, Woodbine Georgia - Visit The Woodbine Opry website. |
