Brookhaven Happenings

We've received a few emails with some updates on Brookhaven happenings, and I thought I would share:

• Tonight (and every Thursday) Live Music at the Library Coffee. Join them tonight from 7:30 pm to 10:30 pm for the Gary Harris Band. This four member band led by Jazz Saxophonist Gary Harris, will play a range of upbeat tunes. Remember - they have cold beers from the tap starting at just $3 a pint plus an extensive wine list with glasses starting at just $6.
• Next weekend (October 16 & 17) the Brookhaven Arts Festival, hosted by the Brookhaven Art Alliance and presented by Brookhaven Bank, returns to Apple Valley Road. Located directly behind the Brookhaven-Oglethorpe MARTA station, this arts and entertainment event is convenient to everyone in Atlanta. Free to the public, come join more than 125 artists that will be displaying and marketing their fine arts. There will also be live music throughout the festival.
• Cory and I are also planning a visit to the Peachtree Road Farmers Market on Saturday in Buckhead (every Sat. from 9am-12:30pm) to pick up some yummy seasonal veggies and check out some chef demos. Visit their website to also find a great harvesting calendar.There's also a smaller, more local Farmers Market every Thursday evening (4pm - 8pm) at the Old Five Points junction (Ashford Dunwoody & Johnson Ferry Road) in Chamblee/Brookhaven. More information here (facebook).
• There is also a Brookhaven Boys & Girls Club Make Over Day on October 17th (9am-4pm)! The National Business Aviation Association and Club Sport will spend a full day giving the Brookhaven Club a much needed makeover. Projects for the Makeover include:
  
  1. Playground renovation
  2. Teen Center renovation
  3. Spruce up/painting of Club rooms
  4. Volleyball courts
  5. Softball Field and much more!
  This will be a fun and rewarding day for all. Please volunteer by registering HERE. Make sure you add Club Sport as the Company Name when registering.
  

Hope to see you all at a few of these events!
