The Portal Heritage Society will be cooking turpentine this year at the 29th Annual Catface Country Turpentine Festival, thanks to a group who helped secure pine tar, an increasingly rare commodity that is essential in distilling turpentine. The tar was procured from a location in Mexico, said Portal Heritage Society member Jerry Lanigan. The festival, held in the quaint Northwestern Bulloch County town of Portal, will be held Saturday ans Sunday.
Time for Turpentine Festival
Annual celebration is Saturday, Sunday in Portal
