Title A name given to the resource 'Fire Ant Festival' my choice Description An account of the resource Editorial by Wiregrass Farmer Editor Ben Baker advocating for the Turner County festival to be named the Fire Ant Festival. "I like the idea for a number of reasons (not just because I came up with the name.) Think about the other festival around Georgia. Georgia has kudzu, mule, hogs and gnats for goodness sake with festivals in their name. "We can have a mascot, an ant in a fire chief's hat and bunker gear standing with a hose ready to put out a fire. Or maybe an ant in camp fatigues and a flamethrower strapped to his back... Fire ants are everywhere down here. Everybody has been bitten by a fire ant at least once. I can't think of a single redeeming feature for these insects. Our festival would be an honoring tribute to the fire ant but a simple recognition for all this tiny creature has done since coming here from another continent..."

The committee voted several weeks ago to officially name the festival the 'Wiregrass Festival.' ... Mr. Leatherwood said he received a call from a man living in Quitman who said that city recently held its first-ever Wiregrass Festival. This could present a conflict. The Turner County committee decided last week to incorporate under the name 'Wiregrass Festival' and thereby copyright that name for Turner County's event. Quitman then could not specifically use 'Wiregrass Festival' as its festival name, although a variation on that name is possible."
