Cherokee Residents To Attend Trump Inauguration

CANTON, GA -- A group of Cherokee County residents will hit the road next week to attend the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump.

Members of the Cherokee County Republican Party Elect Trump Committee, along with members of Sutallee Baptist Church and students from the Academy at Double H Ranch, will be attending the 58th Presidential Inauguration to witness the swearing in of Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence.

The group will depart Wednesday, Jan. 18 for the Jan. 20 event. They will return Saturday, Jan. 21.

The group went through a long process in order to secure official tickets to the ceremony. They requested tickets through the office of U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk, and they were told tickets would be distributed through a lottery system.

After securing their tickets, the residents began researching the most cost-effective travel and lodging accommodations, along with making reservations at restaurants in Washington.

"Everything is now falling into place and we are all stoked about attending," the group said in its press release.

Logistics will be finalized at a meeting scheduled for Jan. 16 at Las Palmas Mexican Restaurant at the Walmart shopping center in Holly Springs.
