The Depot in Historic Olde Town

The Conyers Depot is definitely one of the favorite tourist attractions in Olde Town. The Depot was a working station until 1972, when passenger rail service between Atlanta and Augusta was stopped. It now serves as a social gathering place and is maintained by the Rockdale County Historical Society. This Conyers landmark is surely the heart of Conyers.

The Dinky Alongside the Depot is “The Dinky,” a 1905 Rogers Steam Locomotive that ran service between Conyers and the neighboring mill town of Milstead until 1961. The engine was used to haul cotton from the main line to the textile mills. It is one of only three of its kind in the world.

Featured Restaurant - Whistle Post by Jessica Smith

If you’re a local and you haven’t frequented the Whistle Post Tavern, then you’re either new to town or you’ve been living under a rock. If you’ve been, but not in some time, pay a visit soon. It really is a charming spot that serves up good, classic grill fare. It’s definitely not your typical pub food. Alongside the spectacular burgers, wings and nachos, the Whistle Post has terrific salads; the Mediterranean with blackened salmon is a personal favorite. Their menu also has many Hearty Healthy selections that don’t skimp on taste. The bar abounds with refreshing libations, pomegranate margarita or red velvet glotini anyone?! There’s always something interesting going down at the tavern. Monday night is the ever popular team trivia. Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays feature Texas Hold ‘Em poker. Thursday is Ladies’ Night and Karaoke, and on Fridays there is live music followed by a DJ spinning tunes on Saturday evenings. Monday through Friday they offer Happy Hour specials from 4-6pm. Just visit their web site to see a complete line-up of activities and bands. On Sundays, there’s a fantastic brunch menu that includes a wonderful Crab Benedict, as well as the traditional version, omelets and even beignets, not to mention a Bloody Mary bar to accompany the fine food. The Tavern is very accommodating to large groups, and you can even host your next big birthday party, shower, retirement function or reunion there. Be aware of a quaint tradition. As the passing trains blow their whistle at the Conyers Street crossing, join the gang and salute the train with a Whistle Post shooter.

About Your County Government Keep Conyers-Rockdale Beautiful Seeking Adopt-A-Road & Adopt-A-Stream Participants Keep Conyers-Rockdale Beautiful (KCRB) is challenging civic, scout, church and neighborhood groups to make July “Adopt-A-… Month.” During the month of July, groups are encouraged to sign up to adopt a road or stream within Conyers/Rockdale County. KCRB will host a volunteer appreciation event in August to share ideas and supplies for scheduled cleanups and to distribute information about the goals and mission of KCRB and upcoming events and programs. The Adopt-A-Road and Adopt-A-Stream programs are designed to prevent contamination of rivers, lakes and streams. Additionally, the programs help enhance the beautification efforts of the local governments by teaching civic and environmental responsibility. Keeping roads, parks and streams clean from debris will better the Conyers/Rockdale County community as well as the environment. Each volunteer group adopts at least a one-mile stretch of roadway or stream and agrees to remove litter from both sides of the road/stream at least four times a year for a twoyear period. To show the community the group is doing its part to clean up Conyers/Rockdale County, KCRB will erect a sign with the Adopt-A-Road/Stream logo and the group’s name after the first pickup.

For more information on either program or to register a group, contact KCRB at kcrb@rockdalecounty.org or at 770-278-7052. Additional information may also be found at www.rockdalecounty.org.
