ROAD WORK: Starting Monday, April 27, road resurfacing crews are expected to begin work on Richard D. Sailors Parkway in both directions between Florence Road and Forest Hill Road. This is anticipated to be a three-month project. Those taking Richard D. Sailors Parkway should prepare for longer travel times.

Drivers traveling to or from Marietta, Smyrna or Atlanta may wish to use Florence Road and Macland Road/GA-360 as part of their routes to bypass Richard D. Sailors Parkway.

Yesterday was STING, Inc.'s 11th Annual Shoebox Project Party. For the past 5 years, we have collaborated with them on this event. Once again, students, parents, and community leaders joined in to make this event a success. Some of the youth decided to display their creativity by writing encouraging messages on the shoeboxes. What a way to put their stamp on Global Youth Services Weekend!

Looking for Barbers, Hairstylists, Face Painters and an MC to volunteer their services in support of the community!
