Write Place 2011 VIP Reception: E-Zone Debuts as Event Venue

The guests included Georgia Southern president Dr. Brooks Keel, other university faculty and staff, local business and government leaders, community members, and six award-winning local authors.  Following the reception, attendees strolled across the street to join the rest of the audience at the Averitt Center’s Emma Kelly Theater for the author presentations.

Jenny Foss, editor of Statesboro Magazine, and one of the event organizers said, “There couldn’t have been a better choice for our joint event of the community and university.  It’s exactly why the Ezone was created – to bring the two together.”  Foss also commented on the amenities of the space.  “It’s a terrific venue with an inviting open space and a kitchen area for our caterers. The classroom and conference room would be great for a business meeting or conferences, too.”
