Norcross Email Extravaganza Vol. 298
A weekly email for the young & forever young in Historic Norcross
DID YOU KNOW...?
The American Flyers are performing in Thrasher Park from 7:30-9:30p tonight, June 7! If you haven’t had the opportunity to attend a Summer Concert Series night yet, it’s a fun way to unwind from your week, spend time with the community, and dance dance dance. Remember to bring your lawn chairs/blankets (just don’t put them on the lawn before 7a.)
Also, Sylvester Stallone was back in town last week filming Tulsa King Season 2. Mike Kelly (GM, B&W) was the hero we all needed and snapped a few photos for us! Lookin’ good, Sly.

DOG OF THE WEEK
Sola is the sweetest!! Adopted from the shelter as a puppy, she recently showed up again as a stray, after 9 years in a home. Her family declined to reclaim her, leaving this cuddly, happy girl without a soft bed and the home she’s used to. Sola seems to be housetrained, walks easily on a leash, and loves getting little pats on her butt while getting pets! She deserves a home to grow old in - come meet Sola today!
