a note from the publishers Dear Friends and Readers, Our lead story this year is the growing impact of Multi-Use Paths on our cities, and how they are expanding in every area. They started as “Golf Cart Paths” in 1972 when Peachtree City residents wanted to own their own golf cart and drive it to the Flat Creek Golf Club-and Wow look at us now!

Publishers: Charlie Nelson, Anna Nelson

Creative Director, Magazine Design & Layout Marilyn Wankel

Editor/Writer Sherri Smith Brown

The Multi-Use paths in Peachtree City now extend over 110 miles connecting the city in every direction. While the paths are still used by over 10,000 electric “golf carts” most of them are never used on a golf course and the paths are used for walking, biking, jogging and fund raisers. Nearby communities now connect with the Peachtree City Multi-Use paths. As we note in the article, other cities and towns are incorporating Multi-use paths into their city plans. Newnan is presently working on a walking/biking path that will connect the Nixon Center and the Newnan Crossing Elementary School and their surrounding neighborhoods. (Check out the article on page 6 – Connecting With Paths). Our paths are bringing people closer to nature. Our area is blessed with beautiful lakes, streams and woods that are home to many species of birds and animals. You can enjoy their beauty in a spread of photos taken by our local photographers. (See pages –9-18). The “Guide Coweta-Fayette” 2018 uniquely serves the citizens and visitors of both counties. Whether you are buying a home, moving into the area, or just looking for activities to join, the Guide is a great starting place to go for information! Maps and Lists abound in the Guide!

Paths

What started in Peachtree City, Expands to Fayetteville, Senoia and Newnan

t began in 1972 as the “great golf cart controversy” and was resolved in 1973 when Flat Creek Golf County Club members were allowed to drive their personal golf carts on Peachtree City roads in order to get to the golf course. From there, the idea of specifically building golf cart paths for a means of travel took shape. The developers of Peachtree City envisioned and created a network of golf cart paths between homes and the golf course that quickly grew to include retail areas, recreations areas, and schools. Connecting all the amenities of Peachtree City made them available to everyone who lived here, and in turn, made property and homes more valuable. Moms and dads drove their youngsters to and from school. Older teens not qualified to drive automobiles could drive their golf carts to high school. The path system also made it easier for 6

everyone to access multiple recreation, picnic, and shopping areas throughout the city. Early on, residents found more uses for the paths. They are a great way to get back to nature and were quickly discovered by walkers, joggers, and bikers. The Running Club organized local running events, including the Peachtree City Classic, which grew larger every year. The Rotary Club initiated the Grand Prix race series, benefitting local schools and supporting several hundred runners on Saturday mornings throughout the school year. The city began to organize events and celebrations that focused on the paths. Flags, banners, and streamers wave from carts as residents travel the paths to 4th of July parades, festivities, and the best fireworks in the area. At December’s Hometown Holiday, a parade of golf carts follows Santa on the

Trail of Lights on a well-traveled path from The Fred to Drake Field. n More Connections...More Paths Today, the “golf cart paths” are more appropriately called “multi-use paths” or “recreation paths,” and it could be said, they are the iconic amenity of Peachtree City. The path system winds its way through more than 4,131 acres of dedicated green space from one end of town to the other, astoundingly growing to more than 110 miles with 4 tunnels and 2 bridges. And it continues to grow, connecting the people of Peachtree City with its recreation, shopping, schools and each other. n West Village Connections and New Expansion in 2018 As the West Village in Peachtree City has begun to fill in with the Overlook

Shopping Area and the large new Cresswind and Everton residential developments, the cart path system is adding more miles. This new residential area will soon be connected to the McDuff Plaza and the Line Creek Recreation area with a new golf cart bridge over Highway 54 on the east side of Line Creek. The 2017 Fayette County SPLOST includes about $4 million in path connections, including the bridge noted above. Peachtree City has 15 projects that will improve the connectivity of the path system. These include connecting the Crosstown Road area to Highway 74 S at the MOBA and linking to the existing tunnel under Highway 74 at the Peachtree City Athletic Complex. Also included are new paths for Huddleston Road and Paschall Road, opening up access to the Industrial Park; to the Police Station, to Line Creek Nature Area on the west side, and to the Peachtree East shopping center on the east edge of town. Additional connections along Peachtree Parkway North and Robinson G Road are planned for the future.

n Tyrone and Redwine Road Connect into Peachtree City Paths Over the years, other communities across the nation have emulated Peachtree City’s path system. Nearby communities in Fayette and Coweta are beginning to do the same. The Town of Tyrone’s comprehensive plan includes a network of multi-use paths in an effort to create car-free connections between all the town’s neighborhoods. Current paths radiate from Tyrone’s Senoia Road area while other connections are in the planning stages. Neighborhood developers in the southern part of Tyrone built cart paths to connect their neighborhoods to the Kedron area of Peachtree City, giving residents access to Peachtree City shopping, dining and recreation areas. In the late 1990’s, developers on the southside of Peachtree City along Redwine Road and outside of the Peachtree City limits began tying their neighborhoods into the existing cart path system. This was done in increments by neighborhood developers, as

part of the county’s SPLOST program, and by the Fayette County School System as part of the “safe routes to school” project since part of the network connects to the Starr’s Mill school complex, just south of Peachtree City. n The Somerby Connection When the large Somerby senior living complex was being built, developers included a golf cart charging garage for their residents and built a connector to the Wilshire Shopping Center on Highway 74. n Fayetteville and a Countywide Path System The City of Fayetteville currently does not have an adopted comprehensive multiuse master plan for paths. The County is currently in the process of updating its Comprehensive Transportation Plan and developing its Master Path Plan. Once the County has mapped out its path network, the City’s vision is to create a Master Path Plan and connect to the County’s path system. Plans are underway to construct a Continued on page 8

multi-use bridge and path over Highway 54 near the Fayette-Piedmont Hospital that will eventually connect that area to the Lester Road Path that currently ends at Bennetts Mill Middle School. This project will allow cyclists, pedestrians and golf carts to cross over Highway 54 safely. The Redwine Road multi-use path begins near Beauregard Road sidewalk, transitions into Redwine Road and continues to the city limit boundary near the Lakemont Subdivision and the Lakeside on Redwine subdivision where the path transitions into the County. A number of people use this path for leisure walking and exercising. One of the goals of the City’s recently adopted Comprehensive Plan is to connect areas of the City by forming a street grid with sidewalks for walkability throughout the City and make downtown vibrant and walkable. The Comprehensive Plan is a guide that assists communities in achieving their goals and objectives over a 10-to 20year planning period, and should be used as a decision making guide by local officials and community leaders. As the City continues to implement its sidewalk plan to create a grid system, the vision of the City is for the sidewalks to connect to multi-use paths or trails at identified areas in the City in the future. Paths, trails and greenspace are features that the City has begun requesting new residential and mixed-use developments to incorporate in their development plans. A map of the Ridge Nature Area, which is maintained by the Southern Conservation 8

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

Trust, illustrates several multi-purpose trails and pedestrian paths, and as the City and County path networks evolve, additional paths can possibly connect to The Ridge Nature Area system in the future. n Senoia’s Future Connection to Peachtree City Senoia already has a successful local, multi-use path network connecting its quaint historic Downtown to surrounding subdivisions. As part of its 2016 20-Year Plan, Senoia would like to provide more multi-use paths and trails for its residents, and extend a welcoming connection across county lines to its neighbors in Peachtree City. According to Scott Tigchelaar, president of Senoia Enterprises, Inc, the City of Senoia is in discussion with Peachtree City about the development of a connector path that would link the two close neighbors, especially via bicycles and LSVs (Low Speed Electric Vehicles). Fewer cars on the roads and the quality of life benefits of this unique form of accessibility to the two destinations have long been considered a desirable amenity for the residents on both sides of Line Creek. Line Creek does form its own special problem, however, since the cost of the bridge crossing it will be very expensive. n The Newnan LINC The City of Newnan and the Coweta County Board of Commissioners recently accepted a master plan proposed for

creating the LINC—a 25.5-mile, recreational trail system that aims to connect the east and west sides of Newnan with all trails leading to the downtown business district. The path system, which will not allow motorized vehicles, is designed for walkers, runners and cyclists. The master plan for the trail is broken down into 15 separate segments. The first segment to be built is LINC #4, or the Newnan (Nixon) Centre Connection. This 1.6-mile segment will connect Newnan Crossing Boulevard to the Nixon Centre for the Performing Arts, Newnan Crossing Elementary School, and the residential neighborhoods along Highwoods Parkway and Shenandoah Boulevard. The primary reason for developing this portion first was that it provides safe routes to school for Newnan Crossing Elementary and connects the various areas to promote a future “live, work, play” development. Newnan Assistant City Manager Hasco Craver says the segment hopefully will be completed in 2018, while the remaining segments are a long-term project. Nearly all of the proposed 25.5 miles of trail will be inside the Newnan city limits, with Coweta County funding only the portion in the unincorporated county. Throughout Fayette and Coweta counties the path continues to grow, providing a connection between people, places and community that is just another great reason to live here. G i G

n Lake Horton Lake Horton is a major recreation spot, and nature photographers favorite. It is a principal source of Fayette’s water supply, fed by Woolsey and Antioch creeks. The 780acre lake has an 82-acre park and offers 2.8 miles of paved walking trails, boat ramps, picnic areas and fishing. The rural nature of this lake attracts a large variety of birds and animals providing the photographers with many willing subjects. No power boats, swimming, skiing, scuba diving or other bodily contact with the water is allowed.

north, the 270-acre Lake Peachtree forms just below the Highway 54 Bridge and ends a mile south at the lake spillway at McIntosh Trail. The multi-use path running around the lake’s perimeter is just short of 4 miles and makes for a great jog or walking route. On the lake’s east side, paths run along its contour never far from its shore, providing excellent views. On the western side, the path—more like a sidewalk—is further from the lake, running west of Peachtree City’s first neighborhoods, which were built along the lake before the idea of a path system was conceived. Lake Peachtree is reserved for the use of Peachtree City residents and their accompanied guests. The only gasoline motorboats allowed are owned by lakefront residents on the west side of the lake who have grandfathered rights with their property ownership. Otherwise, only non-gasoline powered boats—canoes, kayaks, pontoons, and electric driven boats—are allowed; but swimmers and fishermen (with state required fishing licenses) are welcome. Offshore swimmers must be accompanied by an occupied boat for safety purposes. There are several public access areas into the lake, including Battery Way Park on the east side, and Drake Field, Picnic Park, and Pinecrest Boat Ramp on the west side, as well as parking spaces for golf carts and cars. • 151 Willowbend Rd, Peachtree City GA 30269 n Lake Kedron With its large pier and convenient boat ramp, Lake Kedron is a local favorite for fishing. This 235-acre reservoir, located in Peachtree City but owned by Fayette County, stores approximately 1 billion gallons of water. Boats with electric motors and other non-motorized boats are permitted via the public access on Peachtree Parkway North. You can often see kayakers paddling its calm waters as the sun sets. There also is a picnic area with a small playground and plenty of bench seating. Fishing is allowed from sunup to sundown, but swimming is not permitted anytime.

meander ‘inland.’ A boat ramp provides easy access to the river for fishing and paddling. You can rent canoes and kayaks from the park, but there is no shuttle service. The parking fee is $5; annual passes are available. The Friends of Chattahoochee Bend are looking for volunteers who are available on weekdays to help maintain trails and work on construction and beautification projects. Contact the park directly or visit bendfriend.org for more information. The park is located at 425 Bob White Way, Newnan GA 30263 near Alt-Hwy 27 at Chattahoochee River. • Telephone 770-657-7271 or 800-8647275. Open 7AM to 10PM.

n Chattahoochee Bend State Park Georgia’s fifth largest state park, Chattahoochee Bend spans 2,910 acres in northwest Coweta and extends along the banks of the Chattahoochee River for 5 miles. Most of the park has been left in its natural state, but there are still plenty of activities to enjoy— camping, a playground, picnic tables, geocaching, fishing, and an observation tower for views of the river and forest. The park has 6 miles of hiking trails, some of which run along the river, while others

n B.T. Brown Park, Pavilion and Reservoir In Coweta County, the B.T. Brown Reservoir & Park is located at 621 South Alexander Creek Road in Newnan, and is run by the Coweta County Water and Sewage Authority.

tarr’s Mill has had a long list of owners over the course of its 200 years, but only one name stuck—that of Hilliard Starr, who owned the mill in the 1870s. Today, the mill is owned by the Fayette Country Water Department and is open for fishing and picnicking. The iconic Starr’s Mill, is one of the most historic, picturesque and photographed sites in the state. It was featured in two well know movies, “Fried Green Tomatoes” and Sweet Home Alabama.” The current mill is the third built on the

property and one of the few gristmills that remain standing in the area. It was built in 1907 by William T. Glower to replace the previous mill which had burned. Starr’s Mill operated until 1959, using a water-powered turbine, instead of a wheel, to grind corn and operate a sawmill. The mill site also included a cotton gin and a dynamo that produced electricity for nearby Senoia. The Mill sits along what was once a portion of the old McIntosh Trail, a wellknown Indian trail that ran from the Ocmulgee

Drone Photography is the Latest Marketing Tool

ales of homes are soaring with the use of professionally produced aerial videos. In fact, homes marketed with aerial photography and video sell 68% faster, as reported by Multiple Listing Service, and the National Association of Realtors report that 73% of homeowners prefer to list with an agent who uses videos. Initially, drone aerial photography was only considered as an option for multimillion dollar listings, but real estate agents are discovering that the benefits reach beyond luxury listings. Today, aerial photography offers affordable aerial perspectives of homes and neighborhoods to enhance the indoor tour experience. Tom Black, owner of Overview 3sixty Aerials, said, “over the past 2 years, approximately 20% of the listings that were filmed have been million dollar listings, 50% have been between $500,000 to $900,00 and 30% have been under $500,000. The sky is the limit with aerial photography.” Drone photography fills a void between traditional ground photography and aerial photographs taken from a plane or other aircraft. Drones can film from 2 ft. off the ground and soar up to 400 ft. This dynamic range showcases all angles of a home, it’s layout, features, and property lines. Riverfront properties and properties that have amenities, lakes, and golf courses lend themselves to scenic aerials that tell a story and engage the viewer Take your brand to new heights with the latest marketing tool

in real estate. High quality aerial photography and video produces impressive marketing campaigns that differentiate and set apart property listings. An experienced professional drone pilot can capture aerial images that help you to sell listings and will go beyond that to also help you sell lifestyles. Drones help the homebuyer to see the overall lifestyle of an area, as well as the home, and convey a story with all the benefits and value. Today drones and aerial photography are giving both the buyer and the seller a modern tool when making an important real estate decision.

THE ENJOYMENT OF BIRD FEEDING There is a special enjoyment in watching birds feeding just outside your window. Many people today, from seniors to small children, are delighted by the variety of beautifully colored birds that they see at their home feeders â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from cardinals, chickadees, finches and woodpeckers to those who just pass through on their way further south, you never know who will come visiting! People usually start with a small bird feeder placed near a window where they can watch them all year long. As their interest grows they often study the art of bird feeding to learn what type of seed is most attractive to certain species. Their studies lead to multiple feeders and various types of seed. You can purchase bird food in most markets, but to learn more about feeders and seed, a specialty retailer like Wild Birds Unlimited is the best way to shop. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find a wide variety of feeders and seed and knowledgeable bird lovers willing to share their love for bird feeding.

o smoke. No mirrors. Peter Morrison’s brand of magic is of the purest form. Sleight of hand. Cards. Coins. Rings. Ropes.

Morrison, who is now performing his magic on Friday nights at The Loft at Due South, has had a distinguished career—appearing in more than 5,000 shows across the country over the past 17 years. In 2008-2009, he performed over 80 sold-out shows at the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. In 2010, he founded his own magic theater in San Francisco, The Marrakech Magic Theater. One of the highestrated attractions of any kind in San Francisco, Morrison dazzled sold-out audiences with his elegant style of classical magic.

The Avenue, Peachtree City

Exciting New Changes Coming to the Avenue

new management company took the reins of the Avenue in 2016. They saw an opportunity to provide for a need that has long existed in Peachtree City – the need for a gathering place for the community. A destination that has something for everyone. The new management company was on a mission to continue developing the Avenue into that place, and they are continuing to create a place for people to go and enjoy, no matter the time of day, in essence they want to be a “lifestyle center” with open air dining, brick laden sidewalks, fountains, bronze statues and green space. The Avenue began working on their plan to revitalize the property in 2017. In that year, 10 events were added to their Event Calendar, including the first annual Easter Egg hunt, touch a truck, and golf cart show. The Thursday Night Out series also made its debut with live music and

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

games. In 2018 their community events will continue to grow with the addition of a Mardi Gras Celebration on Fat Tuesday, and The Avenue’s first annual Labor Day 5K. The second phase of a property redevelopment will continue into 2018. This phase will include new enhancements to drive lanes on property, making it easier for shoppers to enter and exit the center. A new soft seating area will be developed with interactive fountain features. Keep an eye out for the introduction of new retailers and restaurants. The Avenue will continue to develop and create the main street atmosphere. The Avenue will be introducing a guest services team in 2018. Guest services will offer concierge service, including a texting program where shoppers can ask questions in any of the following areas and receive real time answers: directions, parking availability, store hours and event details.

When you are on property they will provide golf cart transportation, take a photo for you and even share an umbrella in the rain. Andrew Moth, General Manager explains, “The redevelopment is a sign of our commitment to excellence and the community around us. When guests visit the Avenue, we want them to feel like they can stay awhile.” There is nothing like walking the open-air sidewalks, touching and trying items on, smelling the food and enjoying the atmosphere. Adding to the visitor’s enjoyment in 2018 will be property-wide wireless internet - log on when you arrive and feel free to enjoy fast free internet anywhere on property.

Dining

Diversity in Food and Experience

he Coweta/Fayette area has an unlimited variety of choices when it comes to dining. Whether it is eat in or dine out you have many opportunities to take your pick between a large number of ethnic or regional food styles – Chinese, French, German, Mexican, Thai, Indian and Japanese are all well represented in the area. Of course, mainstream American cuisine is available too, from the popular hamburger, to steaks, seafood, and southern comfort food and buffets of all types. Our advertisers cover a large number of these specialties and are a sure choice on any occasion, but for your convenience we are including some of our other outstanding restaurants as well. Space doesn’t allow us to mention all the great places, but this is a good starter list. n Azul Tequila (Peachtree City) Four years ago, Juan Carlos Sanchez, opened an authentic Mexican restaurant featuring dishes and recipes passed down in the family. A fun place with real Mexican food and the best Margaritas in town. n Bistro Hilary (Senoia) Recently opened, Bistro Hilary is bringing upscale dining to our area. Owners Jim and Hilary White have already been well received. The food is French-inspired cuisine with local ingredients. Vegetarian options are thoughtfully provided. Their patio seating on Barnes St is sure to delight the

diners when weather allows. You can check their full menu at bistrohilary.com. n Chin Chin Chinese Restaurant (Peachtree City) Chin Chin has been serving Peachtree City with authentic Chinese cuisine since 2001. Local owners Joanne and Ben Gao expand on traditional Chinese recipes to create their own distinctive flavorful dishes, including General Tso’s Chicken, lo mein dishes, Beijing duck and seafood hot pot. There is a full menu of appetizers, soups, chicken, beef, seafood, pan fried noodles, fried rice, egg foo young, and desserts as well as chef’s specials and lunch specials. Each meal at Chin Chin is cooked fresh by order at their open kitchen where customers can “witness the art of culinary style of Chinese cuisine.” n The Cellar at The Firestone (Newnan) Housed in a 1950s Newnan building that once served as the Greyhound bus stop, and later, as a Firestone tire store, The Cellar at The Firestone is a fine dining Chophousestyle restaurant that offers the finest local ingredients and quality, exotic meats. The Cellar menu has everything from fillets and New York strip to wild boar, kangaroo, lamb and trout.

n City Cafe & Bakery (Fayetteville) City Cafe and Bakery near Fayetteville’s historic courthouse square has been serving authentic German and Continental cuisine since it opened in 1998. Master Baker and Chef Jorg Schatte’s menu features classic German dishes, such as wiener schnitzel, bratwurst, knackwurst and kielbasa as well as steak, chicken, seafood and a variety of dishes, like wild mushroom crepes, fried green tomato stack, paella Valenciana and gnocchi. The City Cafe bakery offers homemade desserts, breads and pastries. The restaurant, which has a cozy patio and deck, hosts live music on weekend nights, Easter and Mother’s Day brunches, and an Oktoberfest celebration from mid-September through October. n Due South (Peachtree City) Trendy, hip and serving contemporary Southern cuisine, Due South brings “the downtown Atlanta restaurant scene downhome to Peachtree City.” Opened in 2012 by Bryan Gardner and Michael Smith and located “due south” of The Avenue in Peachtree City, Due South is a place where people go to have fun, socialize, and eat great food—like chicken and andouille sausage gumbo, Charleston she crab soup, pecan chicken salad, southern fried chicken and waffles, fried green tomato stack, deviled eggs with bacon, and blackened BBQ shrimp and grits. Due South has a dining area, bar, private room, and patio downstairs; and several private event spaces and balconies upstairs. n Georgia Shrimp Company (Peachtree City) The Georgia Shrimp Company is known for creating fresh fish dishes with a Euro/ South African flair inspired by owners Ant and Dee Murphy, who opened the restaurant over a decade ago when they moved from South Africa to Peachtree City.

African specialty and the restaurant’s signature dessert. “The Shrimp”—as it is called by locals—also draws patrons who enjoy live entertainment along with their meal. Throughout the week, the smooth sounds of live music resonate—everything from blues to jazz to indie rock. n Grazing Here (Peachtree City) The locally owned Grazing Here is a 100% grass-fed, beef burger restaurant, featuring a whiskey bar, and a gluten free menu. Foods are organically grown and harvested, straight from the farm. Besides creatively dressed burgers, Grazing Here serves poultry, Angus beef hot dogs, and sides like grilled asparagus, homemade mac and cheese, slaw and pimento cheese. On weekends, Grazing Here becomes a “live music joint” with regional bands and musicians. Occasional Karaoke and Music Trivia Night add to the fun. So order up your burger, a large portion of sweet potato fries, and a Jack Daniels and get ready to tap your feet.

n Hanna Brothers Studio Café (Fayetteville) Located in the Pinewood Studios Production Centre, the Hanna Brothers Studio Cafe is a movie studio-style commissary that is open to the public. The cafe, which operates Monday through Friday, serves breakfast, lunch and Friday evening “Supper Club” dinners. The buffet lunch menu changes daily and features chef prepared items, such as steak, chicken, fish, seafood and a variety of salads, vegetables, breads and desserts. Snow-crab legs and prime ribs are two of the rotating items on the supper club buffet. The Studio Cafe is an outgrowth of the Louisiana-based motion picture and event catering operation owned by brothers Jim and Joe Hanna since 1997. n Pascal’s Bistro (Peachtree City) Born in the South of France and trained at Le Cordon Bleu, Chef Pascal came to America 35 years ago. In 1999, he opened Pascal’s Bistro in Peachtree City, and it soon became one of the top restaurants in town, serving “American cuisine with a French twist.” Each week, Pascal personally hand-selects the freshest ingredients from

the local farmer’s markets. Classic dishes include Steak Au Poivre, Beef Bourguignon, roasted rack of lamb, Belgian endive salad and creme brûlée. Pascal’s lunch time pasta bar offers six pastas, four sauces, chicken, Italian sausage, shrimp and fresh veggies like broccoli, sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. n Tomato House (Senoia) When Tomato House owner Tracy Brady moved to Senoia several years ago, she fell in love with the downtown and wanted to contribute to the area. She worked on a restaurant concept that would bring Old Italy to the modern South. The result was The Tomato House. Favorite dishes include fried chicken, steak gorgonzola, shrimp limone, buffalo cauliflower, eggplant stack, risottos and desserts like panna cotta, bread pudding, and lemon blueberry cheesecake. The Tomato House offers a full wine list and signature cocktails, such as black walnut old fashioned, cucumber mint martini, and strawberry lavender lemonade. “Chalk Board Sundays” are a menu of Executive Chef Bonny Hayes’ weekly specials. i

Real Estate in the Area is Shifting Gears and Moving Forward at an Accelerating Rate By Jeff Warlick

he dynamic of area real estate has definitely had a very positive year. Coweta and Fayette Counties have experienced positive growth in terms of prices and number of homes sold.

The local real estate markets continued growth, support and reinforce many great reasons to consider our area your home. Industry and Commercial enterprises enjoy high quality trained workers. Educational opportunities in the area continue to provide increasing options. Medical facilities are growing at an increasing rate. Life-style opportunities for recreation, dining, relaxing, enjoying our natural resources and a true sense of community all combine to offer a wonderful area in which to live. All of these attributes attract young and old to both counties. 50

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

Home sales in Coweta County this year were up from last year with 3,483 homes closed. The median sales price was $229,900, up almost 9% from the year before. Much of the increase was the result of both sale prices and the number of homes sold in the $250,000 and less range. Prices on homes from $250,000 to $500,000 were relatively stable. Prices on homes over $500,000 rose 3% as larger homes are attracting increasing numbers of buyers. The total number of homes sold in this range was 184. Home sales in Fayette County totaled 2,244 homes. The median price of homes sold in Fayette County rose to $295,000 making the overall increase 5% for the county. The majority of homes sold in Fayette County were in the $250,000 to $500,000 range. Prices on these homes increased 2%

reflecting a slight shift toward the lower end of the price range. Prices on homes $250,000 and less increased 8% as buyers were attracted more to the upper end of the range. (The combination of the two factors suggests that many buyers find the $200,000 to $400,000 price range very attractive.) Prices on homes $500,000 and larger rose by 10% with a total of 318 homes sold. Interest rates continue to remain at historically low rates. Although up slightly over the past year they make home ownership very affordable. In addition, lending has become more available with products that suit virtually anyone interested in owning a home or moving to a new home in the area. One of the healthiest dynamics affecting the area is the increasing

availability of homes for all life styles and seasons of life. While at one time many active empty nesters felt the need to look to other areas, both Coweta and Fayette offer opportunities to “right-size” to their needs and still be close to family and enjoy the benefits of living here. At the same time, many have felt the need to “age place”, and are now seeing their home equity values increase and provide a stronger financial foundation. Any assessment of the area is incomplete without also mentioning the fact that we continue to see increasing numbers of younger people who grew up in the area and left, now coming back. For many, establishing a family in our communities has become a strong magnet to return. Whether it is attraction to the school systems, the sense of safety, the increasing life-style

opportunities or simply a desire to return to the area because of family, they are returning. In the popular moving “Field of Dreams” one of the take away lines was “If you build it, they will come”. Indeed both Coweta and Fayette counties have built an environment that a growing number choose to call home. If you have interest in making a move or simply learning more, now is an excellent time to consult with a real estate professional. i

trends in home remodeling R

emodeling is trending in Fayette and Coweta counties with changes in home kitchens, baths, and exteriors leading the way. The ability to make big improvements in these areas are only surpassed by the array of building materials available. Kitchens and baths have always been popular in home remodeling, and there is a myriad of new and beautiful materials and products for both rooms. In the kitchen, the seamless appearance of cast solid countertop surfaces in materials is very popular. Natural stones like granite, marble, quartzite and soapstone; Corian and quartz are all in demand. Other trendy updates include custom cabinetry made of quality woods, such as solid maple, with pull-out spice racks, bread and pasta bins, and slide-out shelves that can accommodate all your pots, pans and lids; backsplashes made of tile, stone or glass; and floors in hardwoods, stone and tile. There also is a tremendous choice in hardware design and metals with people gravitating toward bigger and bolder styles.

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

New exterior siding impacts the appearance of a home dramatically. As you consider exterior siding, look for a material that suits the style of your house and also fits your lifestyle and environment. There are a number of options to choose from, including stone veneer, fiber cement, wood clapboard, brick and brick veneer, cedar shingle, engineered wood, aluminum and vinyl. Trim pieces add a great decorative element. Like siding, they can be created from a number of different materials, ranging from wood to synthetic products, such as urethane, PVC and fiberglass. Designers and home improvement specialists can help you choose a siding that fits your familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal style as well as your surroundings. Roofing specialists will help you choose roofing materials with the texture and colors to match your specific preference and compliment the style of your home. Composition shingles have been around for a while and are the most common and least expensive product used on roofs today. Slate is a traditional roofing material

best to hire a pro

ocated in Georgiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Piedmont region, Fayette and Coweta counties offer homeowners rolling hills and an abundance of trees. Trees add texture to the landscape, provide needed shade, serve as natural barriers for privacy, and some afford us with fruits and flowers. Well-kept and properly grown trees can add value to our property, but trees need our help in order to stay healthy and beautiful. Most of us are not tree experts, and that is why it is best to hire a professional tree service when growing, maintaining, and removing trees. n Growing Trees Tree professionals can help determine which trees will grow best on our property. For instance, some trees flourish in shady areas, while other trees like full sun. Fruitbearing trees may become a nuisance once they mature if they are planted near 66

sidewalks or pavements. Certified arborists can inspect your yard and help you identify the best trees to plant where. After planting, they can also give advice for watering, fertilizing and mulching. n Trimming and Pruning Tree pruning is an art that arborists have mastered. When done by experts, tree trimming will leave your trees healthier with an untouched, natural look. Professionals remove tree material in a way that will leave trees the open space they need to allow in more sunlight and air circulation. n Removing If your property is heavily wooded, a thinning out of feeble, diseased or dead trees will refresh the growth potential for larger, healthy specimens. But cutting down and removing large trees is not for novices.

It is dangerous work that takes equipment and methods better left in the hands of professionals. After the tree removal, stump grinding, stump removal and chipping completes a job handled more safely by trained professionals. n Clearing for Construction When you need to clear your property of trees for home construction or renovation, turn to the professionals for grading and dirt hauling as well as tree removal. Certified arborists can help you select the trees that need to be removed for construction as well as protect the trees that you leave. Trees are an important component of a propertyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landscape, and tree professionals can help you see that they stay healthy and beautiful for years to come. G i G

making the old look new WITH PRESSURE WASHING

ant to make something old look new? At one time, people would have told you to give it a fresh coat of paint. Nowadays, consider washing it! Washing it with a pressure washer, that isâ&#x20AC;Śand, if you hire a pressure washing professional, you will save time, avoid damages, and complete the job safely.

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

There are numerous benefits to pressure washing. Pressure washing helps increase the property value of your home by restoring its beauty. Over time, home exteriors begin to accumulate dirt, debris, green or black mold, mildew, and various other stains. Pressure washing removes those stains and organic growth to your siding as well as to

driveways, roofs, gutters, retaining walls, pool tile and decks, patios and sidewalks. Pressure washing saves money. It is one of the least expensive cleaning tools for large surfaces. It also prevents the permanent damage caused by letting stain and grime sit on exteriors for long periods of time. Pressure washing can remove this grime quickly and easily with little impact on the environment, when compared with traditional cleaning solutions. It prevents costly repairs as well as reduces the need to resurface or re-paint. When it is time to re-paint your home, re-stain your deck, or resurface your pool, pressure washing will prepare the surface better than most any other cleaning process. Pressure washing saves time compared to regular cleaning methods. Hand washing does not have the same power, and it could take hours to get a fraction of the results. If you are going to pressure wash, it is best to call on a trained and certified pressure washer professional. Many people underestimate the power of a pressure washer. Most pressure washers operate at 2000-4000 psi. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of pressure! Inexperience could cause damage to your exterior surface. It can also cause injury to the operator. A professional knows the water temperature and the amount of pressure to use for each type of cleaning job. A professional also knows when soap and cleaning solutions are necessary and when they are not, and also knows which products provide the most satisfactory clean without harmful residues. A professional pressure washer is highly trained and equipped with state-ofthe-art equipment, ensuring an excellent job on your cleaning project. A professional also may have the ability to recapture wash water to reduce the mess made by the cleaning process, while simultaneously reducing the ecological impact of the cleaning service. Whatever your exterior surface, pressure washing will make it look new againâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and be sure to use a professional to save time, money and get the job done safely. i

Education

Business & Schools Partnering to Promote Learning

ike many public school systems across the nation, Fayette and Coweta schools are partnering with local businesses, industry and technical schools to provide their students with quality, state-of-theart career and technical training and their business communities with a ready work force. The Central Education Center (CEC) in Coweta County is a joint venture between the Coweta School System, West Georgia Technical College, and Coweta business and industry, where the curriculum is designed around the needs and expectations of business. As early as age 16, students from all Coweta high schools can enroll in dual credit courses, known as Move On When Ready (MOWR), during their school day. They can take college-level courses, simultaneously earning credit toward a high

school diploma and a West Georgia Technical College associate degree. Available courses include accounting, cosmetology, culinary arts and game development. Work-Based Learning (WBL) is an opportunity for students to link their classwork and career interests with their job. They leave school during their assigned WBL block/s and receive class credit for their work and WBL assignments. The WBL program includes job, internship and apprenticeship opportunities in all career areas. Like the Coweta County CEC, the Career and Technical Education (CTE) Department of Fayette County Schools offers students Move On When Ready and Work-Based Learning programs. In the MOWR program, students can pursue post secondary study at approved public, private and technical colleges in the area while receiving dual

high school and college credit for courses successfully completed. Fayette County partners with Southern Crescent Technical College to offer high school students dual enrolled courses in Patient Care and Emergency Medical Responder. These classes are taught at the high schools as well as at CTE’s Center of Innovation (COI) in Fayetteville. Partner Piedmont Fayette Hospital donates hospital beds and supplies needed for the program. Southern Crescent also offers Culinary Arts courses that are taught at Sandy Creek High School. CTE coordinates Fayette’s Work-Based Learning and apprenticeship programs, by helping students find workplace settings where they can learn skills that will enhance their academic and future career goals. f

Public Schools Preparing Students for the Future T

op-notch public schools are one of the biggest draws for families looking for an area to relocate. Fayette and Coweta counties have such schools—schools that excel in academics, sports, and facilities; schools that attract top teachers and programs that promote learning and guide students to reach and exceed their potentials; and schools that serve a population of eager students proved by high graduation rates. Serving nearly 20,000 students in the towns of Fayetteville, Peachtree City, Brooks, Woolsey and Tyrone, the Fayette County School System consists of 24 schools—14 elementary, 5 middle and 5 high schools, plus alternative and open campus programs. The system’s wide range of programs include an After School Program for children in grades K-5th, an Early Intervention Program; an Exceptional Children’s Services Program; a Gifted Program for academically talented children Grades K-12; a Homebound Program; a Mentoring Program; an Open Campus Program, which provides online and individualized instruction; C.A.R.E (a program for children at risk in education); and Work-Based Learning and Youth 72

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

Apprenticeship Programs. The school system is the county’s largest employer with more than 2,700 employees and more than 1,400 teachers. It is a diverse district with 38 languages other than English spoken in the schools, representing approximately 1,800 students. At 89.3%, Fayette County boasts the second-highest high school graduation rate in metro Atlanta for 2017, and ranked third in the state for systems with more than 1,000 students. In 2017, students averaged ACT scores of 23.2 and SAT scores of 1120, compared to state averages of 21.4 for the ACT and 1050 for the SAT. All five of Fayette County’s high schools are on the Washington Post’s 2017 list of America’s Most Challenging High Schools, placing them in the top 12 percent of all public high schools in the nation. Over the years, a number of Fayette County high schools, middle schools and elementary schools have been named Georgia Schools of Excellence as well as National Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence. Other Fayette County School accolades include state and national recognition in everything from athletics and marching band to drone operating and robotics.

Education The Coweta County School System offers students a variety of traditional and non-traditional instructional settings, more individualized study, and a wide range of enrichment opportunities both on and off of school campuses. The Coweta County School System has partnered with local businesses, civic organizations, the Coweta County Development Authority, The Newnan–Coweta Chamber, universities, and West Georgia Technical College to develop programs, like dual enrollment, online courses and virtual learning and workbased learning, that ensure that graduates are prepared for the 21st Century work environment. The school system consists of 31 schools—19 elementary schools, 6 middle schools, 3 high schools with 9th grade campuses, 2 alternative schools, 1 Charter and Career Academy (grades 8 - 12), serving over 22,500 students. The system-owned Centre for the Performing and Visual Arts, is a state-of-the-art facility that brings the Fine Arts to students of all ages in Coweta County. Coweta County has received numerous recognitions over the years. Newnan High School and Northgate High School were named to the Washington Post’s list of America’s Most Challenging High Schools. Other honors for the school system include four Georgia Schools of Excellence, three Georgia Teachers of the Year, a recent Georgia Principal of the Year, and numerous awards from various educational organizations. The 2016 graduation rate was 84.7, well over the state average of 79.2. Coweta County high school students averaged ACT scores of 21.7 and SAT scores of 1079 in 2017, while the state averages were 21.4 for the ACT and 1050 for the SAT. East Coweta, Newnan and Northgate high schools were recognized as “AP STEM” high schools in the 2017 College Board AP Report to the Nation. In addition, East Coweta High and Newnan High made the list of 149 Georgia AP Humanities Schools. f

Higher Education More Educational Options O

ver the years, more and more institutions of higher learning have found their way to Fayette and Coweta counties, providing options for more and more students seeking higher education. A public university and part of the University System of Georgia, Clayton State University has had a presence in Fayette County for many years. Now located in a modern building on Peachtree City’s north side, the Fayette Campus is home to the university’s Dual Enrollment (Move On When Ready) program, which offers high school students an opportunity to take college-level courses for credit. Students enrolled on this campus can complete their general education core curriculum courses as well as five degree programs: the B.S. in Psychology and Human Services; the B.S. in Integrative Studies; the B.A.S. in Administrative Management; the R.N. to B.S.N. online program; and the M.B.A. degree program. Now in its third year of operation, the Georgia Film Academy (GFA) trains students for a career in Georgia’s growing film industry. GFA offers an 18-credit hour certification program specifically designed to provide students with a basic level of on-set film production skills, on-set procedures, and knowledge and experience with film-industry standard organizational structure, professional equipment, and on-set procedures. GFA courses are being taught at Clayton State University and at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayetteville as well as a number of universities and technical colleges around the state. Students at GFA can take classes to prepare them for jobs in camera (operator, camera assistants); electric (on-set lamp operators); grip (on-set, dolly grip); sound (mixer, boom operator, utility); art (set dressers and props); hair, makeup, and wardrobe; locations; script supervision; video assist; craft services; and set and office production assistance. GFA students also have the opportunity to intern on film and television productions in the area. In partnership with GFA, Clayton State University offers a 2-year, 60-credit Associate of Arts in Film Production program that includes the 18-credit GFA Certification. The University of West Georgia, the state’s sixth largest public university, has operated a Coweta County campus since 1988. Recently located to the renovated historic Newnan hospital, the University of West Georgia Newnan’s undergraduate offerings include the fundamental core curriculum, two full undergraduate degree programs— Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education and Bachelor of Science in Nursing—and select undergraduate business courses. Graduate programs include the MBA, Master’s

Dr. Steve Barker, Coweta County School Superintendent, was selected as the 2017 Georgia Superintendent of the Year by the Georgia School Superintendent’s Association.

Newnan-Coweta Chamber Celebrates 70th Anniversary

Newnan-Coweta Chamber officials accept their award for being the 2015 National Chamber of the Year.

he Newnan-Coweta Chamber was officially formed on May 6, 1947 at the Coweta County Courthouse, and the organization is busy celebrating its 70th anniversary this year. At the time of the Newnan-Coweta Chamber’s founding, representatives from the U.S. Chamber and other Georgia Chambers were on hand, as well as “over 300 local business, professional, industrial and agricultural men from Newnan and Coweta County.” A U.S. Chamber official attending the event noted that no city stands still. “It is either going forward or backward,” he said. A quick look at the many opportunities available to the business owners of Coweta County today makes it clear which path the Newnan-Coweta Chamber has chosen. In 2015, the Chamber was chosen as the National Chamber of the Year, and since that time, this 900-member strong Chamber has continued to build on its success by increasing membership, growing its Business Women’s Network through a mentoring program and luncheons, and revamping already successful programs like Leadership Coweta, the popular program designed for existing and emerging leaders. For entrepreneurs wanting to start or grow their business, the Chamber has provided support by launching the Six Figure Success Club Meetups in partnership with Ignite Business Coaching. The Newnan-Coweta Chamber also supports the newest generation of entrepreneurs through Morning Buzz educational events, Cocktails and Connections networking events, and a new program launched last year in conjunction with the Coweta Community Foundation, the Young Professionals in Philanthropy. Workforce development remains a priority as well, with the Chamber supporting Central Educational Center’s new program, the Georgia Consortium for Advanced Technical Training (GA CATT), a German-

apprenticeship style program that is the first of its kind in the United States. The program unites the German American Chamber of Commerce of the Southern U.S., Inc. with the Technical College System of Georgia and eight Coweta manufacturers. Beginning in the 10th grade, high school students have the opportunity to complete their education with a high school diploma, German apprenticeship certificate and an associate degree in Industrial Mechanics through West Georgia Technical College. Also, the Chamber recently launched Coweta Works, a partnership with the Coweta County Development Authority in which they introduce the many work opportunities in Coweta County to all of Coweta’s public and private school eighth graders. The Newnan-Coweta Chamber continues to be a community influencer that works to achieve an excellent quality of life for all Cowetans. Last year, the Chamber led successful SPLOST and ESPLOST campaigns that made sure funds from the one-penny sales tax continued to benefit Cowetans. To encourage local literacy efforts, the most recent class of Leadership Coweta graduates launched Little Free Libraries throughout the county. The Chamber also kept local leaders informed on Coweta’s economic and retail progress through State of Economic Development and State of Commerce luncheons. So what’s ahead for the Newnan-Coweta Chamber? Chamber President and CEO Candace Boothby said she agrees with that Chamber official from 1947 who believed a community was either going forward or backward. “We’re so proud of this Chamber’s award-winning past, but we’ve accepted that as a challenge to build an even more prosperous future,” Boothby said. “We want to make sure they’re still talking about us 70 years from now!”

PIEDMONT FAYETTE

MAKES A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE FOR EVERY HEARTBEAT

mbulances arrive at Piedmont Fayette Hospital each day, carrying patients who require immediate intervention on their hearts. Before the patient even arrives at the hospital, the emergency department and the cardiology department jump into action, working with the emergency medical service providers to have as much as possible ready to go. When it comes to issues surrounding the heart, all of the physicians, and staff members, know that time equals muscle and that every second can help provide a better outcome for the patient. Last year, Piedmont Fayette received the American College of Cardiology’s NCDR ACTION Registry - Get with the Guidelines

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

Platinum Performance Achievement Award for the fifth consecutive year. The Platinum Award recognizes Piedmont Fayette’s commitment and success in implementing a higher standard of coordinated care for heart attack patients and signifies that it has reached an aggressive goal of treating these patients to standard levels of care as outlined by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association clinical guidelines and recommendations. “It does take a village to deliver this kind of consistent, high-quality care,” said Dr. Nimish Dhruva, Medical Director of Piedmont Fayette’s cardiology department. “Thanks to a coordinated effort between the cardiovascular and emergency department

teams at Piedmont Fayette, and Emergency Medical Services personnel we are able to implement these guidelines, improve patient outcomes and save lives.” The cardiovascular department at Piedmont Fayette recently added another catheterization lab and launched an electrophysiology program in March of last year, thanks in part to a generous donation from Coweta Fayette EMC. Electrophysiology is the study of heart rhythm disorders, commonly due to a patient’s heart beating too fast, too slow, or out of rhythm, including rhythms like atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter. An electrophysiologist can perform certain procedures to help alleviate these problems. One aspect is installing devices

PERSONAL TRAINERS

Promoting Acceptance & Accountability

magine getting into your high school jeans. Fitting into that sexy, little black dress. Starting a lifestyle change. Building a new relationship with food. Those kinds of thoughts typically get people fired up to lose weight and get in shape. But change is tough. Many of us want change, but we throw up our own roadblocks. But why? What’s holding us back? These are all important questions to ask yourself if you are someone who has not taken action before but has now decided to take your health into your own hands.

Change is just a mindset that comes from a deep reason to want something different. Many people say, “I want to lose weight”—but that is not enough of a reason to change. It doesn’t mean anything to them. It’s just an empty promise. People must have tangibles, such as “I want to be healthy, happy, and confident in my own skin.” “I want to run again without my knees hurting.” “I want to play with my children/ grandchildren.” Now, those are goals that mean something! When you do not make a change, you are stuck with the same old feelings—like not being able to run painfree, no confidence, or no energy to play.

cautions, however, that a personal trainer or program is not the answer forever. For the long term, people have to maintain their weight and exercise program on their own, and Jessica teaches her clients how to do that. “My personal training and nutrition philosophies are backed by third party technical/medical resources to help you on your health and fitness journey,” says Jessica. “Together, we can pinpoint your musts and create a training and nutrition plan designed for you and your goals. No one else’s. I can help you. Inspire you. Provide the tools necessary. But it still comes down to you. I can’t make you change.” As Jessica says—When it comes to health and personal fitness—“The ball is, and always will be, in your court!” For more information, contact Jessica at 770-631-2703 or email her at: Jess.Beardsell@gmail.com. i

ACE certified personal trainer and BTN and PN certified nutritionist, Jessica Beardsell–Fit50andFab, LLC

Personal trainers have different approaches to inspiring their clients to make a change. For instance, Jessica Beardsell, an ACE certified personal trainer and BTN and PN certified nutritionist with her own business, Fit50andFab, LLC, encourages her clients to get upset with the status quo and make the changes they want in their life a “must do.” Jessica does not offer clients a strict diet, food plan, quick fix, or magic pill. “What I do is personal training and nutrition,” says Jessica. “You need both since you can’t outrun a bad diet!” Jessica develops a 6 or 12-month individualized fitness program that can jumpstart a client’s health and fitness. She

such as pacemakers or defibrillators to restore the heart’s proper rhythm. Another aspect is performing ablation procedures. This procedure uses specialized catheters to modify the electrical tissue in the heart that is triggering abnormal heart rhythms. This can be used for a number of different abnormal rhythms and can offer a cure for some patients. As part of the recent launch of the Piedmont Fayette electrophysiology program, all devices can now be implanted

and some ablations can be done locally. “These are complex procedures and require a lot of coordinated effort from a team of physicians, nurses, techs, and other support staff. Everyone at Piedmont Fayette has worked very hard to get this program up and running to provide safe and effective care for our patients,” said Ashish Bhimani, MD, a cardiac electrophysiologist at Piedmont Fayette. Previously, local residents with these

issues needed to travel 30 minutes or more outside of the county for the study and any procedures that needed to be done. It is obviously much less stressful to have these services done close to home, where a patient can have their family close by and they have their own doctors to take care of them before and after the procedure. Over eighty percent of all heart issues can be prevented with lifestyle changes and, surprisingly, women are affected by heart disease more than men. In fact, one in three women will die from heart disease and 90 percent of all women have at least one risk factor for heart disease. That’s why Piedmont is adding services that focus on preventive care for women. The program, which comes to Piedmont Fayette this spring, will bring in many Piedmont specialists with expertise in areas that affect heart health. They will lead classes focusing on nutrition, fitness, stress reduction and more. The goal of this program is to provide access to information and support for women with heart disease or those who are at risk for heart disease. “Women need to know the risk factors, they need to know the preventive measures to take and they need to know that there are people out there who are willing to help,” said Bukola Olubi, MD, a cardiologist at Piedmont Fayette. “Women have a tendency to take care of others first. This program’s aim is to take care of women first and to provide them with the knowledge and support they need so that they can stay healthier for all life has to offer.” Piedmont’s purpose is to make a positive difference in every life they touch. The physicians and staff members of the cardiovascular department at Piedmont Fayette Hospital are able to make an impact with the care they provide and the knowledge that they share.

long life’s way we meet many people. Some people pass through our lives quickly and others become more than just a name – they become friends. You get to know them, their attitudes, their character. This Volunteers In Action section is dedicated to a man we knew through our publishing business. We became friends over a stretch of time that goes back 20 years. We got to know Bob Crutchfield to be a unique leader of volunteers working at Christian City. As the successful leader of one of the most significant nonprofit charitable organizations in the South Metro area, Bob dealt with men and women from all walks of life. But to Bob Crutchfield they all got the same warm smile and firm meaningful hand shake. His true love for people showed in everything he did. To him, raising funds to support the children in their Children’s Village could be fun. He organized golf tournaments and auctions where he personally participated. One of my favorite memories of Bob was when he stationed himself at a Par 3 in a tournament – not as an observer but as a 5th player, so that he could help every team get a lower score! At another time he was the auctioneer, getting the best price on a vast assortment of collectible items

the coweta-fayette guide 2018

and gifts, all for the boys and girls living in homes in the Children’s Village. Bob was loved by the thousands of volunteers, some he recruited personally, who worked in areas throughout Christian City. They saw him as an inspiration in their own volunteering efforts each day. Leading a large non-profit organization through those years required the talents of an extraordinary man, and Bob filled the bill. Bob had the talent for recognizing the abilities in others and recruited a variety of volunteer leaders from business and industry, to help him guide Christian City through the years. They provided new insights and became trusted friends, as well. They saw, close up, the significance of Bob’s leadership and genuine love for everyone. Bob passed in 2017 after a three-year battle with ALS. He is remembered by all those who loved him at Christian City. In remembrance, they have dedicated a fountain to him on campus. But to the many souls that he touched, he will be remembered every day as an inspiration to those who dedicate their lives to the enrichment of others in need of a helping hand or a loving hug. by Charlie Nelson, Publisher

Clothes Less Traveled Named 2017 Nonprofit of Excellence by Fayette Chamber of Commerce

From left: Felicia Brown-White – Store Manager, Wendy Binfield – Board Member, Kevin Barbee – Executive Director, Pam Young – Board Member

lothes Less Traveled has been named 2017 Nonprofit of Excellence by the Fayette Chamber of Commerce. The Nonprofit of Excellence Award recognizes and honors private, nonprofit organizations that demonstrate enhancement of the quality of life and betterment of the community; contribute a balance of time, expertise and funding; and serve locally, regionally or nationally. Established in 1997, the Thrift Shop began in a single store front on Huddleston Road. MaryAnn Cox and Joan Velsmid, co-founders, needed a place to donate or sell the items that were being dropped off at MaryAnn’s office at Holy Trinity Catholic Church. The first thrift shop in Peachtree City, named by Janet McGregor Dunn “The Clothes Less Traveled”, opened its doors filled with worthy donations and volunteers. Clothes Less Traveled proudly serves our local community through Grant & Scholarship programs, Student Intern Programs, Community Instruction Programs, and Volunteer Opportunities.

Volunteers in Action

Hundreds of volunteers from churches and community organizations showed up at the Midwest Food Bank to sort can goods for repacking and loading on to trucks. The trucks were sent to fill requests from various first responder groups shortly after Hurricane Harvey hit Texas.

You can be a Volunteer!

Volunteering doesn’t take any special skills or extensive experience – and there’s never a shortage of organizations looking for help. Our society would not be as strong without folks willing to help those in need. Get involved – it will change your life! By volunteering we can: • Give back to the community we all love • Make a difference to people less fortunate • Help rescue an animal • Feed the hungry • Build houses for the those who need them • Clean up our lakes and paths • Give items to thrift stores/work in a thrift store • Comfort the sick • There are many more opportunities. See pages 98-99 for an extensive list of Volunteer Organizations.

Benefits of volunteering: We don’t volunteer to benefit ourselves, we do it because it makes a difference. However, many unexpected benefits come our way when we get involved. • Make new friends and meet new people • Teach children to give back • Improves mental health and makes us happier • We become a part of our community • Promotes longevity • Can help with employment opportunities
