Norcross Email Extravaganza Vol. 392
A weekly email for the young & forever young in Historic Norcross
DID YOU KNOW...?
I’m sure you’ve seen PDC listed in the daily lineup, but if you’ve ever wondered what it actually is, it stands for People Doing Community or People Drinking Coffee. This longtime weekly gathering, led by Chuck Paul, meets every Wednesday from 8:15-9am at 45 South Cafe! It’s open to anyone who wants to stay connected to what’s happening around town. Meetings often include guest speakers like city leaders, school representatives, and others sharing updates on development, traffic, housing, and community issues!
