Flintstone, GA – Walker County Sole Commissioner Shannon Whitfield invites you to join him for lunch, as the busy Summer season approaches.

Whitfield will hold his second Lunch Conversation with the Commissioner on June 1st from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Susan’s Diner, located at 3551 Chattanooga Valley Road in Flintstone.  The public is encouraged to drop by, purchase a meal and enjoy some friendly conversation about the state of Walker County.

Since the first Lunch Conversation, several new initiatives have launched in Walker County, including increased codes enforcement, a new smartphone app to report issues, improvements at the animal shelter and the announcement of a hotel/resort development.  Commissioner Whitfield welcomes your questions, comments and ideas on these and other matters important to Walker County residents.

Susan Hays opened Susan’s Diner in 2012, bringing some of her family’s favorite dishes to the restaurant menu.  The family owned diner serves soups, salads, hamburgers, sandwiches, and meat and veggie plates during lunch.  Commissioner Whitfield favors the chicken n’ dumplings, which happens to be the Thursday special. Susan’s Diner also offers an extensive breakfast menu.
