Mark your calendar and enjoy a meal out this Thursday, October 7. The Forum location of The California Pizza Kitchen will be donating 20% of all food & beverage sales to Norcross Cooperative Ministry! Dine in, take-out, or pick-up curbside anytime from 11:00am - 9:00pm and help benefit NCM..it's a great excuse to let someone else do all the cooking (and the dishes too!) Just be sure to mention to your wait person that you're "dining for Norcross Co-op" and enjoy!

* The dine for Norcross Co-op event is only on Oct. 7, and only at The Forum, 5173 Peachtree Parkway. This offer also applies to all catering orders placed on Oct. 7.

And don't forget that this Saturday is Clean-Up & Recycle Day at the City of Norcross. Click here for details on paper shredding. Click here for electronics recycling

Only 20% of voters turned out for the primary. So few control the outcome of so much when you dont vote.

Please get out and vote at the primary on August 10 and let your voice be heard. Dont sit by quietly, let your voice be heard.
