Norcross Email Extravaganza Vol. 310
A weekly email for the young & forever young in Historic Norcross
DID YOU KNOW...?
Paizanos permanently closed its doors last week! Word travels fast, but if you haven’t been downtown recently, you may have missed it. The good news is that a popular pizza shop, Savage Pizza, will be taking its place.
MEET YOUR NEIGHBOR
Submit yourself / your family to be featured! Email a brief introduction and photo of you / your family to youngnorcross@gmail.com. Then show your “Meet Your Neighbor” feature to the team at Social Fox Brewing for a free round (this is the only feature that earns a free round)!
DOG OF THE WEEK
Lithia has been overlooked at the shelter for almost a year. At 2 years and 4 months old, this slightly chubby 56 lb. tan and white cutie is a total sweetheart. She gets along great with other dogs, and has a friendly and gentle play style. Lithia is a dream in the car, has an easygoing temperament, and is super friendly with everyone she meets. If you’re thinking about fostering or adopting, please consider Lithia. She’ll fill your life with love and plenty of kisses! *I’m experiencing issues uploading Lithia’s photo.
