If you were born between 1947 and 1964, you are a “baby boomer,” and the Cordele Dispatch would like to share your story with its readers in the next edition of the Tri-County Scene, a full color, glossy magazine.
We are particularly interested in glimpses from the past. Please share your best childhood and youth memories and quality photographs, especially candid shots that tell a story.
If you had a special experience such as meeting a famous performer or any other unusual or unique experience, we are interested in interviewing you for a full-length story. Please call me at 273-2277 or e-mail me at peggy.king@gaflnews.com.
We will take care of all photo submissions and return them to you if you’ll include a stamped self-addressed envelope. We also welcome e-mailed submissions if you have digital photos or can scan your photos and send them as jpegs.
Please take a trip down memory lane and tell our readers what it was like growing up in the 1950’s,1960’s and 1970’s.
To meet our deadlines, we must have your submissions no later than Monday, March 22. Please e-mail to peggy.king@gaflnews.com or mail to P. O. Box 1058, Cordele, GA 31010.
