Crews deepening the Savannah River kept pulling up cannons. By 2022 they had 19, sunk nearly 250 years ago during the Revolutionary War

A routine harbor-deepening project in 2021 turned into a major historic find when a dredge scooping the Savannah River bed pulled up a rusted cannon in its jaws. Crews widening the channel quickly raised two more guns in the next scoop, eventually recovering 19 heavy iron weapons by March 2022. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers later brought up two more from the riverbed, bringing the final tally to 21 Revolutionary War cannons.

Georgia's Former Army Base Is Now A National Monument With Civil War Relics And Historic Trails

The U.S. state of Georgia may be best known for its bustling capital city, Atlanta, but the Peach State is also rich in history, being home to hundreds of Civil War battle sites. On Cockspur Island just outside Savannah, often called the friendliest U.S. city by tourists, sits a 19th-century fort known as Fort Pulaski. Once the site of a major siege during the Civil War, today the fort is a registered National Monument with historical relics and seaside trails open to the public.

Tis the season! Georgia Southern PAC announces 2026 holiday performance lineup

The Georgia Southern University Performing Arts Center (PAC) is kicking off the holiday season later this month with family-friendly events that last through the days leading up to Christmas. Director Daniel Brown and his team have planned a full slate of activities centered around their annual Christmas production, continuing their hope to make the PAC a welcoming and essential part of the community’s holiday plans. “Every year we look to plan a Christmas show," Brown said. "The reception to last year’s, ‘I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas’ was so positive that we chose to book two holiday shows this year, ‘Frosty: A Musical Adventure’ and ‘Jim Curry presents John Denver’s A Rocky Mountain Christmas’.” The first show, Frosty: A Musical Adventure, is based on the iconic Christmas song “Frosty the Snowman.” A young orphan named Billy discovers magic in a stolen hat, and when he places it on a snowman’s head, that snowman comes to life! Can Frosty help Billy find his real family in time for Christmas? Join them in a thrilling quest through New York City as they discover that the real magic of the season is love.
