SUWANEE ANNOUNCES 2010 COMMUNITY EVENTS


Paddle in the Park Suwanee

The City of Suwanee, along with several media partners and private organizations, has put together a 2010 community event schedule that features concerts, festivals, movies, races, and more at a variety of venues that include most of the City’s parks as well as the Suwanee Gateway and historic Old Town.

The City kicks off the fun at Town Center Park with the 106.7 True Oldies Birthday Bash featuring Beatles tribute band, The Return, on April 10. In addition to traditional favorites, such as Suwanee Day, the Memorial Day Weekend concert, Taste of Suwanee, and Star 94’s Woofstock (formerly Petapalooza), several new events are scheduled this year: a fine arts festival in May, Great American Campout at Sims Lake Park, and a privately organized book festival and international food and beer festival.

I’m Liking the Duluth Parks Page and Blog Site


Duluth Web and Blog Site

Kukdos to City of Duluth for revamping their website and providing a better experience for those visiting their Parks and Recreation page of the site. I’m also enjoying their blog site and the fact that they are on twitter and facebook.

You will find their Activity Guides here.

I know some of the other Gwinnett cities are doing similar attempts and we’ll be highlighting those as well.
