A group of White County High School football players got a chance last weekend to get a close look at the Atlanta Falcons. The WCHS players were special guests of the Falcons during a practice session July 27 at the team's headquarters in Flowery Branch. The players got a chance to watch practice from the field, and also heard from Falcons' head coach Dan Quinn and general manager Thomas Dimitroff. Following practice the players had a chance to mingle and get autographs from several members of the NFL team. (Photos courtesy of Daniel Salazar, Atlanta Falcons)
