It's not hard to see why Valdosta is known as Azalea City. Bursting with colorful blooms all across town, plus charming architecture at every turn, it's hard to explore this place without a smile.

Keep that smile going by knowing your home is secure with an ADT monitored security system. Featuring 24/7-monitored motion detectors and security cameras and some of the fastest response times in the industry, an ADT monitored system will help keep your home and family safe even when you're not around.

Now that you've made sure someone will be alerted in the case of a home emergency, head to Wild Adventures, a delightful theme park packed with roller coasters, water rides, and even an on-site zoo, so you can peer at a prairie dog (cute!) while trying your new favorite ride. Or explore the wetlands by strolling the boardwalk at Grand Bay Wildlife Management Area. This place sure has a wild, free, beautiful air to it, perhaps in part thanks to the signage reminding you to "take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footsteps."

Have a sports buff in the fam? Let your football fan shine here in Winnersville by catching a game in the fall. Valdosta State University and Valdosta High School are consistent top-performers in the nation, earning Valdosta the distinction of "TitleTown USA" by ESPN in 2008.
