The Hinesville Downtown Development Authority has announced that Bryant Commons officially will be opened to the public in a grand-opening event scheduled for March 7. The park — which has been open only to guests of the Independent Telecommunications Pioneer Association’s museum and parties who have reserved Bryant Commons for private events — will be open to the general public from sunup to sundown following the grand-opening event. Two other major events have been scheduled to coincide with the park’s grand opening, which officials hope will attract regional visitors as well as local community members.
