Ed Presnell, President/CEO, Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce.(Special)
Welcome Masters Enthusiast -
On behalf of the Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce, I would like to welcome you to the Augusta.com Masters® website.
As the second oldest and largest city in Georgia, Augusta is proud to play host to the world at the beginning of April as the Masters Tournament attracts a global spotlight to our city. The Augusta National golf course and the pageantry that is the Masters® Tournament is truly a grand and beautiful spectacle. Lush fairways and pristine greens are framed by thousands of blooming azaleas and dogwoods, as a large and colorful gallery intently watches the uncanny precision of the world's greatest golfers. We are proud of the Masters®, and we strive to make your experience in Augusta a positive one.
I encourage you to explore our area when you are not at the course. Take time to visit Riverwalk Augusta, a six-block esplanade boasting lush floral designs, quaint restaurants, shops, the Morris Museum of Art, the National Science Center's Fort Discovery, and the Georgia Golf & Gardens, future site of the Georgia Golf Hall of Fame.
Augusta affords the opportunity to take a unique look into American history with attractions such as the Augusta Museum of History, Sacred Heart Cultural Center, Meadow Garden, and the Boyhood Home of President Woodrow Wilson, just to name a few. Fabulous events and festivals are held throughout the year, offering something for everyone.
We invite you to discover the charm of Augusta and the hospitality of our residents. If you are fortunate enough to be in Augusta, we hope that your stay here is enjoyable, and we hope that you will return often during the year to further experience the hospitality, history, entertainment, industry, and beauty of the area we are proud to call home.
Sincerely,

Ed Presnell
President/CEO
Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce
