Neighborhood Parade!
Don't miss this year's Parade of Wacky Hats!   Everyone had such a good time last year, we plan to do it again.  So think up something fun, outrageous, silly and over-the-top for your Wacky Hat as you walk the parade route, down Drewery and onto Barnett (about .6 miles).  We will meet at the same place, Intown Hardware (Drewry/N. Highland), but this year it's Friday night at 6 p.m. We'll get started at 6:30 and end up at the neighborhood dinner at the Inman Park field where prizes will be given.   Register online and let's have some community fun!
