For ticket information Click Here.

Why is it called the Westobou Festival? Between 1660 and 1680, the Westo Indians lived in an area between Augusta, GA, and North Augusta, SC, along the banks of the Westobou River. Today, that river is known as the Savannah River. The river was a valuable resource to the Westo Indians and remains an integral part of the Augusta Region, serving as the catalyst to stimulate an economic and cultural impact on the entire area. It is fitting that the Trustees of the Academy of Richmond County selected the name Westobou Festival in promoting their vision to advance excellence in the arts and celebrate Augusta's wealth of artistic talent.

I still haven't decided exactly who and what I am going to see ...but you can bet you'll see me there!

Augusta Georgia's CareFair for Women this Saturday

Today's woman wears many hats. I am a wife, real estate agent, mother, sister, and friend. I am a chauffeur, a chef, a nurse and a counselor. Yes, I love the roles but I really would love some time to myself. I am very excited that the 10th annual CareFair for Women is a just around the corner. Between running errands and showing houses to my new buyers, I plan on stopping by the Christenberry Fieldhouse at the ASU Athletic complex to take care of myself. It makes things very convenient for me as I won't have to take time out of my schedule during the week to have a routine check up.

I hope you take advantage of free health screenings by Doctors Hospital Staff Take care of your health
We women today are busy. Way too busy. OK, you've heard that before and can certainly rattle off the three dozen errands, chores, assignments, deadlines - whatever - you have to get done today.

If you're like most women you're too busy taking care of everyone else to worry about yourself. But you're not getting any younger and putting it off isn't going to stop the clock.

Now you have no excuse. Doctors Hospital is bringing a slew of health care professionals to CareFair to provide much-needed, often life-saving tests for you. And they'll have experts on hand to provide information you need to stay healthy. And it's all free.
So in-between the cooking demonstration or after enjoying the fitness demonstration before sitting down for the fashion show, visit Doctors Hospital's Health Fair. You'll be glad you did.
