Presented by The Ringgold Youth Council
A Night Out with Living Legends is an interview-style series that lets attendees listen to and ask questions of the featured guest speakers. The first installment, “A Night Out With Alvin Ridley,” features guests Alvin Ridley and his longtime Attorney and friend, McCracken Poston Jr., who have garnered national attention and recognition for their involvement with a murder case from decades ago and in more recent times, are the subject and author, respectively, of the true-crime book, “Zenith Man: Death, Love, and Redemption in a Georgia Courtroom.” Thursday night’s event, hosted by Jed Mason, will allow attendees to hear Ridley’s eye-opening story firsthand. This event is perfect for anyone interested in history and true crime or for those who want to learn more about the stories that make Ringgold.
The Ringgold Youth Council believes it is vital that all parts of Ringgold’s history are remembered, and they created this series so the public can learn more about the history that has yet to receive enough attention or exploration. A Night Out with Alvin Ridley and the other upcoming series installments are free and open to the public. Attendees can park in the public parking areas on and around Depot Street, shown in the map below, and walk to the Ringgold Depot for the event.
