EX-99.1 CHARTER

Capital City Bank Group, Inc. and Capital City Bank Elect to Continue to Participate in the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.–December 12, 2008–Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:CCBG) announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital City Bank, which is a Florida chartered FDIC-insured depository institution, has elected to continue to participate in the Transaction Account Guarantee Program.  Additionally, Capital City Bank Group and Capital City Bank have also elected to continue to participate in the Debt Guarantee Program.  Both programs are part of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (“FDIC”) Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”).

Under the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program, through December 31, 2009, all non-interest bearing transaction deposit accounts, including all personal and business checking deposit accounts that do not earn interest, lawyer trust accounts where interest does not accrue to the account owner (IOLTA), and NOW accounts, which are capped at a rate no higher than .50% through December 31, 2009, are fully insured, regardless of dollar amount.  All other deposit accounts continue to be covered by the FDIC’s expanded deposit insurance limit of $250,000 through December 31, 2009.

William G. Smith, Jr., Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated “Our clients view Capital City as a strong and dependable institution, and Capital City believes in these trying and uncertain times for the financial services industry, it is critical to provide our clients greater peace of mind by participating in the Transaction Account Guarantee Program.”

“After careful consideration, Capital City believes continuing to participate in the Debt Guarantee Program, which will enable the bank to issue up to 2% of its liabilities in senior unsecured debt, is in the best interests of our shareowners.  Given that there is no cost for us to participate unless we decide to issue debt under the program, we wanted to maximize our flexibility by maintaining our liquidity so we can continue to take advantage of business opportunities as they arise,” Smith added.
