Grayson Celebrates Heroes

Grayson Celebrates Heroes

GRAYSON – The 36th Annual Grayson Day on Saturday, April 25th, will be a day of remembering and celebrating our heroes – both big and small – those who have fought for our rights and dignity, stood as role models in our lives, and those who give of themselves to make a difference in our community. We’re dedicating the day to celebrating all the heroes among us!

The flavors curl right through the air and permeate the space between the front door of the Blue Rooster and the grounds of the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse. The fragrance is slightly Willy Wonka-like as the mind is transported back into the cookbooks filled with cherished tried-and-true recipes that found their way onto tables at family reunions, church dinners, and community picnics.

The first things you notice as you watch the after school activities at The Path Project in the Gwinnett Estates Mobile Home Park in Loganville are the smiles. As the Volunteers welcome children straight off the bus, the kids all have the program down pat.

A birthday, an intersection dedication, an inspiration

From 1818, when it was chartered, until the 1960s, Gwinnett County was just one of Georgia’s many slow-growing rural areas. But as the county’s attractiveness became more widely known, its complexion began to change.

Some people run for the exercise. Some run for the rush. Some run for the sheer fun of it, and still others run because they have to.
