Hi, my name is Amanda. I serve as a sales coordinator for Old Town Trolley Tours. I was born in Gastonia, North Carolina, but I have lived in eleven different cities. Savannah has been my home for the past three years.

Before coming to the trolley business, I worked in Group Sales, as well as cruise and event planning with the River Street Riverboat Company. I also served as a sales concierge for the Old Town Trolley Tours Welcome Center for about a year and a half.

I am not married, but I am happily living with my loving boyfriend on Wilmington Island. I do not have any kids of my own, but I am a proud aunt to my niece, Dakota.

I am excited to be working here, and I hope to enjoy the employment of this company for a while to come. Everyone has been so friendly and helpful to me. It is very much appreciated!

Hello! My name is Carolyn Edwards and I am a sales representative here at Old Town Trolley Tours® of Savannah. I was born and raised in Savannah, Georgia. I have a wonderful husband and four beautiful teenagers: three daughters and a son.

My favorite activities and hobbies for the most part are going to church, traveling, and shopping.

What brought me to Old Town Trolley Tours® of Savannah was that I knew right off the bat I was well qualified to meet the standards as a sales representative. Furthermore, I really do enjoy meeting people.

Hi, my name is Chuck. I’m a recent transplant to Savannah from Kingsland, GA, where I have lived since my retirement from the US Navy in 1993. I am originally from Oklahoma. Since retiring I have become a Master Certified Automotive and Truck Mechanic.

Hi! My name is Janice. I am the eldest of three children. I was born January 17, 1965.

In 1988, opportunity meant for me to work at Union Camp Corp. Working at Union Camp, I met my future husband, James Emerson Jr. We have two children, James Emerson III (5 years old), and Janae’ Briana Emerson (4 years old). We were married on May 10, 1996.

Hi y’all! I’m Karen, a recent transplant from faraway Seattle, WA. After visiting here recently, I impulsively bought a home and am now thoroughly enjoying Savannah’s beautiful weather, hospitable people, and rich, rich history.

A history major from the University of Washington (Go Huskies!!), and former teacher, who has traveled the world as a Marine Corps officer’s wife, it’s my privilege to share my love of Savannah with our many guests! I love everything about the area – from its unique historic squares to its fantastic art community and fabulous restaurants. (I also love the fact that women actually wear hats here!)

The mother of two wonderful adults – Laura, a PhD candidate currently living in New Zealand, and Kurt, an executive with Wells Fargo Financial in Des Moines, Iowa; I am living proof that there is life after children.

Enjoy your visit – and y’all come back and see us again!

Hello, my name is Darniki, “Niki” for short, and I have been a resident of Savannah all of my life. I am very familiar with the Southeast. I am happily married and have two sons.

I started at Old Town Trolley as an Administrative Assistant and I am now an Office Manager! I enjoy working here and hope you enjoy your small taste of Savannah.

I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA, moved to Erie to attend college, and stayed there until several years ago. If you have ever experienced lake effect snow, you will know why I’m one of those transplants from up north who has no intention of ever going back. I still have family there that I visit as often as I can, but only during the warm months. My free time (Ha!!) is spent reading and making quilts.

I enjoy being with people and consider working at Old Town Trolley a “perfect fit”.

I am currently attending the University of Phoenix, majoring in Healthcare Administration. I was the only child for about 13 years until a handsome little devil came into my life.

I enjoy working for this company because I like meeting new people. The CAST members here are like a second family. This is truly a great experience for me, and I hope to continue here for years to come.

Good evening, my name is Sylvia. Shortly after graduating from Georgia Southern University I lived in Northern California (the Bay Area) for 10 years. I performed in various theatres there before deciding to go into mental health/social work. I attended San Jose State University, and I have worked in social sciences and counseling since 1984.

Still, I had missed acting terribly, and while in Savannah I got my acting “fix” performing at the Savannah Theatre in shows such as “Annie” and as Big Mama in “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof”.

When I saw Old Town Trolley advertising for actors, I knew this was the place for me. I love Savannah and I love acting- so this is serious fun for me.

Hi folks! I LOVE SAVANNAH! I attended Green Mountain College in Vermont and majored in Retail Management and Advertising Design. I worked in my field in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. and Daytona Beach, FL for years.

I love to travel, so at age 32 I attended Empire State Travel School in N.Y. After 3 years of working for a Travel Agency in N.Y., I decided to open my own agency. I ran my own business, “Destination Travel”, in N.Y. for 10 years, serving as Owner/ Agent/ Manager, etc… I traveled all over the world with my husband and 2 wonderful step-children. Last year we visited Savannah twice. In December we found a house we loved and in March 2007 we moved here and haven’t looked back. I started working for Old Town Trolley in May 2007.

Things I love to do are gardening, decorating our new home, gourmet cooking, frequent Savannah fine dining restaurants, play tourist, see and do new things, and especially love on our 3 pups.

Hi, my name is Kimberly. I was born and raised in Camden, N.J., the Garden State. I moved to Philadelphia, PA in 1990 and started my college days at Philadelphia Community College, majoring in Liberal Arts and Nursing. I left school for one year to have my first child in March of 1992. I went back to school and received my license to work as a Certified Nurse’s Assistant. I moved to Harrisburg, PA and went to work for nursing homes, different rehabilitation centers and hospitals.

I also have two more beautiful children. E’shon, who is now 15, is the oldest, India is 13, and Ashley is 11. We arrived in Hinesville, GA in August 2003 with my brother, who is stationed at Ft. Stewart, and his family. My sister-in-law introduced me to Savannah, GA. I was undecided as to what type of job I wanted. I knew I had skills as a professional working with people. I always loved meeting and talking to people of different walks of life.

I am currently a sales representative and hope to become a trolley conductor. It is a great experience to work with a company that has integrity, hospitality, and cheerful people all rolled into one. Wouldn’t you like to SIGHTSEE SAVANNAH TODAY!?

Hello!  My name is Anna, but I like to be called “Cookie”, a nickname that my grandmother gave to me years ago.  I have resided in Savannah for the last 25 years.  I am the mother of two children, a beautiful daughter named Shalicia, and a handsome son named Kenneth.

I came to Old Town Trolley because it seemed like a wonderful place to work, and it has been.  We have a wonderful family here.  I would like to welcome you all, and introduce you to Savannah.

Performing comes naturally to me! Ever since my mother took me for dancing lessons at the age of three, I’ve been in front of audiences. First, performing for relatives, later in school, and professionally since joining Equity in the 1960’s and the Screen Actors Guild in the 1970’s.

However, my family always came first: I have three sons and three grandchildren (two boys and one girl).
