Barrow County Airport Authority changes name of airport to Northeast Georgia Regional Airport.

The Barrow County Airport Authority, at their December 20, 2005 meeting, voted to change the name of the airport from Winder Barrow Airport to Northeast Georgia Regional Airport. The name has since been changed to Barrow County Airport.

Airport Authority members feel the change will assist the Authority in marketing the airport to Corporate and Business aviation users across the U.S. as well as better describing the airport and it’s existing facilities.
