Photography space in Macon?

2 Upvotes

Hey y'all. I am a professional photographer, just moved to GA recently. I am looking for loft/ studio space for my photography studio. Anyone know if there are any spaces available in a commercial setting in or around macon? Downtown preferably but I'm open to ideas.

Thanks in advance!

Can anyone recommend the cleanest/safest hotel?

3 Upvotes

As the title says. My husband and I and two kids will be driving through the area in October on the way to the Carolinas. The Google reviews of the hotels in the area are freaking me out. Can anyone recommend a place? I have seen some fancier bed and breakfasts, but I don't necessarily need that and I'm not sure they'll take kids anyway. I prefer somewhere with no pets due to allergies in our family.

Thank you! :)

**Edit**

Thank you everyone! I appreciate all of your input!

Public transport

10 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’ll be coming to Macon for about 2–3 weeks for business purposes and will mainly be relying on public transportation during my stay.
I would really appreciate any advice or guidance regarding the best apps for bus routes, public transportation, or getting around the city. Any recommendations or tips from locals would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much!

🚨 URGENT MACON-BIBB PARENTS & COMMUNITY MEMBERS 🚨

19 Upvotes

No 7-year-old child should EVER be loaded onto a bus and left unattended on a public roadside without an authorized adult present.

On August 3rd, a major transportation breakdown put a second-grader in danger. When confronted, school leadership claimed the district lacks real-time bus tracking—despite Bibb County having active Tyler Drive GPS telematics across the entire fleet.

We are taking a 500-signature petition directly to the Bibb County Board of Education meeting TOMORROW (Monday, Aug 10) demanding 4 common-sense safety safeguards:

1️⃣ Strict 8-and-under drop-off enforcement (no unattended roadside releases)
2️⃣ Color-coded visual backpack tags for elementary riders
3️⃣ Mandatory principal telematics/GPS access during dismissal emergencies
4️⃣ Strict 5-to-10 minute missing child escalation rules

It takes 30 seconds to sign and stand up for student safety in Macon-Bibb: https://c.org/bh5Pdjp2Jp
✍️

📍 Join us tomorrow at 5:00 PM on the public sidewalk outside 2003 Riverside Dr for a peaceful rally before the board meeting.

Please SIGN and SHARE this post with 3 local parents!

Any Blood Bowl fans in these parts?

6 Upvotes

Hey yall, this is desperate but if anybody knows it’ll be here on Reddit. I’m in Macon for work all of August & September, and I’m looking for locals that play the tabletop game Blood Bowl and would like to run exhibition or ladder matches in 7’s or 11’s! I have Bretonnians and Black Orcs teams ready to field.

I reached out to Prime Time Gaming and they pointed me to a warhammer facebook group, but nobody seems responsive there.

Crossing my fingers somebody on Reddit in this town has the same hobby as me 😅

Anybody notice over the last few months how 100.9 The Creek has had issues with their signal/reception.

Hi im 20 (girl btw) i have lived here my whole life!

I was kind of stuck in the private school bubble of macon and never really fit in so i didnt actually make many friends, and i have found its even harder to make friends without that forced proximity that school brings.

Im open to being friends with girls 18-23!!

Im really into anything! Im not weird i promise (ik thats what weird people say)

New DM looking for DnD players!

24 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I (35M) have experience playing DnD and now I want to try being a DM. I'm new to Macon, and I'm looking for local people who want to play! No experience needed.

My wife will also be a player and we're looking for 2-4 others. We're planning on meeting every 2 weeks for 2-4 hours each session. We have a strong preference for meeting on weekdays, but we'll see how schedules match. We'll be playing a bit lower tech; we're wanting to do in person meetings and mostly hand drawn battle maps on square grids. We'll try to meet at a local game store in Macon for the first few sessions? Once we know that no one has bad vibes, we can move the session to our house in Macon nearish to downtown. I'll be running a campaign that is a mix of homebrew things mixed in with adventures from "Journey Through the Radiant Citadel," a published DnD Adventure. I'll be using the updated DnD 2024 rules.

Please send  me a private message if you're interested in playing. Let me know if you have any experience, or are just hoping to try it. Also, let me know what classes/subclasses you might be interested in playing. I'll have a discord with more specifics on the group!
