DALTON, Ga. – Dalton and Whitfield County’s heritage is helping to ensure the community’s future.
Officials hope a Civil War Landscape Museum, which would draw on the area’s collection of pristine military fortifications, will launch the area into a new age of tourism and further its goal of attracting younger residents.
“We have an untapped wealth of tourism-type assets,” Mayor David Pennington said.
