DID YOU KNOW...?
The Deutsche Klassic German Car Show is happening tomorrow, Saturday, October 26, from 10a-3p! Featuring over 250 classic German cars in downtown Norcross, including BMWs, Audis, Porsches, Mercedes-Benzes, Volkswagens, and Opels, this event is a must for car enthusiasts. While you check out the cars, enjoy traditional German food, beer, and live polka music. It’s a fun, family-friendly event you won’t want to miss! (Volunteers are needed to work 2 hour time slots between 8a-4p. Contact Hendrik Lenze: hendriklenze@gmail.com / 703-980-6785.)
MEET YOUR NEIGHBOR
The Rauschenbergs - Sam, Hannah, Hudson, Ruth, and Luke - have called Norcross home for five years. Those near Lake Drive may have seen them pulling weeds, playing ball, or walking their 65lb goldendoodle, Champ, who’s always eager to catch a squirrel. Sam works for Achieve Atlanta, a college access nonprofit, and writes the blog Southbound. Two years ago, the family held a yard sale to raise money for Luke's adoption - he's now thriving after overcoming many challenges, including open heart surgery! Hannah is often driving the older kids to school or taking Luke to doctor and therapy appointments. Hudson and Ruth are proud siblings to Luke and enjoy sports and the arts.
**Luke is currently competing to advance in the Good Housekeeping Baby of the Year contest. The Rauschenbergs invite you to vote for him every 24 hours until November 21! If Luke wins, they plan to donate most of the prize to the National Down Syndrome Adoption Network and the Ronald McDonald House in Orlando.**
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
Meet Taylor Hautner! For all the Twilight fans, this sweet boy isn’t a werewolf, but he’s just as lovable. Taylor is a 2-year-old, medium-sized pup who gets along well with dogs of all sizes and children. He’s great on a leash, loves car rides, and is the perfect affectionate companion. The shelter is currently full, so Taylor needs to find his forever home by Tuesday, October 28. If you’re looking for a loyal friend, be sure to meet him this weekend! Learn more about Taylor here.
