Easterseals Southern Georgia is proud to announce the release of the 2025 City of Albany Christmas Ornament, featuring The Exchange Club Fair of Southwest Georgia.

A special proclamation presentation by Mayor Bo Dorough was held on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at the Exchange Club Fairgrounds in conjunction with the opening of the 2025 Exchange Club Fair. During the ceremony, Easterseals CEO John McCain revealed this year’s ornament design, followed by Mayor Dorough, who officially proclaimed this year’s ornament, marking a beloved annual tradition that has spanned more than three decades.

This year’s collectible ornament is the 33rd in Easterseals Southern Georgia’s cherished series. Crafted from 24-karat gold over brass, the 2025 ornament comes in a collector’s display case embossed with the Easterseals logo. Only 500 ornaments have been produced, making this a limited-edition keepsake for the holiday season.

The ornaments are available for $25 each (plus shipping, if applicable) and can be purchased at the Easterseals Southern Georgia office, located at 1906 Palmyra Road, Albany, Georgia, or online at southerngeorgia.easterseals.com.

In addition to the 2025 design, ornaments from previous years—celebrating Albany and surrounding communities—are available for purchase at discounted prices ($10–$20 each) while supplies last.
