Big Canoe Chapel...

The Big Canoe®Chapel is considered by many the heart of Big Canoe®. Original developer, Tom Cousins, envisioned a church, and donated six acres of land and recruited Dr. Vernon Broyles who had just retired from North Ave. Presbyterian Church in Atlanta. A set of plans was drawn for the little Chapel and put out for bid. The low bid was $155,000.00 in 1975. Dr. Broyles set it up that 50% of its income would go to the benevolent fund. It is still that way to this day. This fund reaches families in need not only in Pickens and Dawson counties, but communities throughout the world.
