This will give me a chance to say ‘thank you.’”
The 21-year old daughter of John and Cathy Bridges of Brinson, Maggie is the granddaughter of John, Sr., and Carolyn Bridges of Brinson, Martha Brown of Donalsonville, and Glenn and Dottie Brown of Bainbridge. She is a 2011 graduate of Southwest Georgia Academy in Damascus, and is currently a student at Georgia Institute of Technology with a dual major in Pre-Pharmacy and Information Technology.
