A message from Lynn:

Dear Friends & Neighbors,

Thank you for giving me the honor of representing you in the Georgia House of Representatives. As your citizen legislator, I take this responsibility very seriously. I’ve worked hard to serve as an effective voice for our district at the Capitol, and as an effective extension cord to keep our citizens connected with state agencies that serve their specific needs. 

As a Republican leader in the State House, I represent our shared conservative values with common sense to deliver practical solutions for everyone in our community. 

I am honored that you have placed your trust in me and I encourage you to reach out directly with comments, questions, or concerns.

Sincerely,
Lynn R. Smith

Thirty (yes, 30!) of my immediate family members and I have gathered at a beach every year since 1994 - the year after my mother died. This year for our annual reunion we went to the fabulous Pawleys Island and we had a time!

Stay salty, y’all!

This heat has me dreaming of one of my favorite spring events - ELEVATE Coweta Students Hats & Hooves Derby Affair 2023!

The generosity of our community helped ELEVATE to raise over $175,000 to help support our students in Coweta County Schools.

ELEVATE works through Site Coordinators in our schools to identify students in need of assistance and connect those students, and their family members, to community resources that can help remove obstacles to student success.

They make such an impact on the community already and I am excited to see what they will accomplish going forward. Stay in touch with ELEVATE through this website- elevatecowetastudents.org/

Looking forward to 2024!

Join us at the Coweta County Fair Grounds, 275 Pine Road, Newnan, GA 30263. Gates open at 5pm and fireworks at 9:25pm.
