The Decatur Budget Road Trip!

Decatur Metro | March 9, 2012

This is even better than the made up post I put up about the budget process a couple years back! From the Decatur Minute…

The City of Decatur is hosting a Community Budget Gathering on Wednesday, March 14 from 2:30-4:30 p.m. at the Brick Store Pub, 125 E. Court Square. Join Assistant City Manager Andrea Arnold and others interested in learning about the city’s budget process.

This is your chance to find out how the budget process works and give your input. This is the first of three meetings using this new format. The next meeting will be held in April in Oakhurst and the third one will be at City Hall in May. Click here to find the current 2011-2012 budget.

Space is limited so sign up today with Andrea Arnold, andrea.arnold@decaturga.com or call 404-370-4102.

Decatur Adult Prom is Back!

Decatur Metro | March 9, 2012

Michelle writes in…

Your high school prom — Take 2!

By popular demand … the prom is back! Last year Decatur Metro teamed with readers Joe Mattern & Michelle Adams and the Decatur Education Foundation to help raise funds for the Decatur Education Foundation. Fun was had by all, and the chance to re-live your youth, dance the night away and raise funds for Decatur students is here again.

Make plans to attend the second Decatur Adult Prom on April 28 from 8-11 p.m. at Function, 508 E Howard Ave. in Decatur. This year’s theme is “Welcome to Hollywood,” and proceeds benefit the Decatur Education Foundation’s Tools for Success program, which provides laptop computers and technology training to low-income families in our community. Tickets are $35 per person and include great Decatur food, 2 drinks and tunes spun by DJ Aaron Hillegass. Additional drinks $5 at the event.

Tickets can be purchased through the Decatur Education Foundation website here (http://decatureducationfoundation.org/news-events/decatur-adult-prom) – pay for the number of tickets you want and list “prom tickets” in the comment section. Then, put on your Hollywood best and join your friends and neighbors for a re-do of your high school prom!
