The Old School “21” Club-Blakely, Georgia

Blakely, Georgia, is the county seat of Early County, located between Columbus and Tallahassee. The Old School “21” Club is on the edge of downtown. Its purple facade and mural make me think of a modern-day juke joint. While the internet has slowly killed off nightclubs, places like the 21 Club are essential for community no matter the town’s size. People need a place to hang out and have a good time.

The World’s Famous Get-A-Way-Zebulon, Georgia

Located on the edge of Zebulon is this juke joint. Despite the rules written on the “bathroom,” it looks like a good time could still be had. Based on Google street view photos, there seem to be efforts to clean up the area. It was once overgrown with bushes and other growth.

Thank you to Brian Brown for showing me this great spot.
