History of the NorthWest Georgia Transportation Club

For the better part of the last 75 years, the N.W.G.T.C. has been a primay link within the transportation community in Northwest Georgia. Located strategically between major metropolitan areas of Chattanooga TN and Atlanta,GA., Dalton,GA is home to some of the largest floor covering manufacturing companies in the world ! As a result, it is also home to many and various modes of transportation providers,both large and small. These transportation companies specialize in handling carpet and floor covering materials. The NWGTC was started as a means of networking providers and consumers to build a stronger transportation community within the Northwest Georgia area. In years past, the cities of Rome,LaFayette,Calhoun and Chattanooga have played particularly important roles in our organization. Today, the reach of the NWGTC stretches not only to the transportation community, but to the rest of the community as well. The main focus of the NWGTC is to educate our members and provide college scholarships to local students. We've come a long way in 75 years and we have a long way yet to go with lots to do to achieve the goals set forth by the organizations creators! This website will hopefully help foster those goals and objectives by making the organization accessible to anyone interested in finding out about us! Beginning in 2012, we will have quarterly business/educational luncheons at the Dalton Golf and Country Club. Fun, education, more fun, and more education is what we are about ! COME JOIN US .........

UPCOMING EVENTS

We will be having a business meeting on Nov 3rd at the Dalton Golf & Country Club @ 11:30. Our guest speaker will be GBI Special Agent, John C. Cannon. Special Agent Cannon's presentation is very interesting so please make plans to join us!
