    GET CONNECTED!

    Who is my neighbor? The amazing thing is many of us don't know. Our neighbors, up the street, around the corner or even next door might be just the contact you've been looking for to take your business to the next level.

    Join with your business neighbors on Tuesday June 22, 5 PM - 8 PM at the Atrium on Sweet Auburn for an evening of Networking, neighbor to neighbor. Bring plenty business cards, strike up a conversation, exchange cards, make appointments follow through.


     
    SWEET AUBURN THEATER GROUP

    CATERING WITH A FLAIR

    When I want to eat a great lunch at a reasonable price I head for the Atlanta Life Cafeteria. The cafeteria Is operated by Catering With A Flair. It is the closest thing I know to delicious southern, down home, finger licking food.

    If you desire "healthy" soul food then you will find it served up everyday by Catering with a Flair. Did I say that they also offer a great breakfast that includes eggs, grits, sausage, salmon cakes toasts or biscuits. The quiet laid back atmosphere makes it the ideal location for business meetings or just quiet meal.

    Catering With A Flair is a full service top notch catering company that provides services for many of Atlanta's leading companies and events, we are just fortunate to have then located on Auburn Avenue. Click on the link to get the full Catering with a Flair story.

    I am delighted, encouraged and appreciative by the positive response that I have received from many of the subscribers to the Sweet Auburn POST. Our goal is to make the POST interesting, informative and useful. The post is our way of preserving the heritage telling the history, and spreading the spirit of Sweet Auburn.

    Sometimes readers take interest in an article because it deals with a subject that they are keenly focused on. Like the time we featured the Bio of Rev. Michael Harris, Senior Pastor of Wheat Street Baptist Church. In the article it was mentioned that Rev. Harris received the Doctor of Ministry degree in Missiology from the Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

    This resulted in a call from Rev Ben. Johnson of Nashville who wanted to meet with Rev. Harris to discuss their mutual interest in Missiology. We were able to facilitate the meeting.

    More subscribers are submitting articles and announcements of events. The POST is designed to be used by you to get your message out to the world. WHY? Because you exemplify the Spirit of Sweet Auburn and we want to spread that Spirit around the world.

    How? We currently have about 5,000 subscribers, the goal is one million. With your help it can be done. Imagine, getting your message out to one million subscribers.

    Invite you friends to subscribe to the Sweet Auburn POST or better still you can go to friendsofsweet auburn Website and sign them up. They will always have the option of unsubscribing.

    I am asking each of you to sign up or invite at least three (3) of your family, friends of business associates to subscribe to the Sweet Auburn POST. Help us carry the SPIRIT of SWEET AUBURN AROUND THE WORLD!
