Are you feeling lucky? Well, are you?

If so, please plan on coming to our Adults Only “Casino Night” at the pool this Saturday, August 27, beginning at 7:00 p.m.!  Now, I don’t want to give the wrong impression – we will not have professional card dealers dressed in tuxedos.  But we will have a few gaming tables set up and some other fun games and activities . . . It is guaranteed to be a fun event!

Come with a cooler of your favorite beverage and an appetizer to share.  PBRA will provide a heartier main dish for all. Additionally, we will have the grills fired up and you can cook to your heart’s delight!

Good times, good food, good music, good drink – sitting by the pool with your friends and neighbors!  What else could make the evening even better?

NO KIDS!!

Also, feel free to bring guests!  Just remember the $5 guest fee.

I look forward to seeing you Saturday night.  Even if you are not feeling lucky.

There is no cash necessary for the casino gaming tables. We will have prizes for the top chip winners, however.

LEGAL DISCLAIMER: In the event that a cash game does come to life, the Piedmont Bend Board of Directors and, specifically, its President, cannot be held legally, morally or otherwise responsible for any losses that may be incurred.

Friends and Neighbors (not mutually exclusive),

For many of us, the “summer” is winding down with kids returning to school, camps coming to an end and vacations being completed. However, there are 48 days remaining in the Piedmont Bend swim season! And we still have plenty of time for many more fun events!!

The first of which is our “Movie by Moonlight” being held the evening of Saturday, August 13. Please see this PDF for all the exciting details!

Also, mark your calendars for Casino Night being held at the pool on Saturday, August 27. This is an adult’s only activity. More information to follow. . .

Lastly, Tennis Courts I & II were resurfaced last week. They look great and are playing even better. Stop by to check out this great improvement to our facilities.

I hope you all are continuing to have a great summer! See you soon.

Happy Holiday Weekend!

In addition to the Freedom Party that will be held at the pool on Monday, there will be a parade through the neighborhood. The Annual Piedmont Bend Fourth of July Parade will be held Monday, July 4, beginning at 10:30 a.m. The parade route will officially begin at the ”UPPER” intersection of Kinridge Road and Kinridge Trail. This is the second stop sign on Kinridge Road coming in the neighborhood from East Piedmont. The parade will end at the pool with popsicles being served.

Decorate your bike, your stroller, your wagon, your walker, your wheelchair, your scooter (sorry, I manage retirement communities) and join us for a lively and liberty-filled stroll through the neighborhood!

If I don’t see you at one of the neighborhood holiday events, I hope you have a safe and fun weekend!

The annual Piedmont Bend Independence Day Party will be held Monday, July 4th. Please see the attached invitation for additional information. Or, should I say, please, please, please, see this invitation (PDF). If you are able to RSVP with a number in your party, that would be especially helpful for food planning purposes.

While that is certainly the most important news of note, a couple of additional bullet points for you all to be aware of…

• The Piedmont Bend Barracudas are off to a 3-1 start with one meet remaining. They will compete against East Cobb on Thursday, June 30, beginning at 6:00 p.m. Visit http://www.pbbst.com/volunteers/meet-5 for additional details about the upcoming meet. Come and show your support for our neighborhood team! Eat my bubbles!!!
• The pool will be closed for the Barracudas end-of-season party on Friday, July 1, from 5:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m. Thank you for your understanding as we celebrate the accomplishments of the team and the individual swimmers!
• Piedmont Bend owns, and therefore paid for, two canopies/tents that we use for special events. They were last used at the pool on June 11 and have “gone missing” since then. If you know the whereabouts of the canopies, please let me know as soon as possible.
• For our tennis-loving members, you all know that the courts are in need of repair and resurfacing. The Board has allocated funds for addressing this need and the work will be done on Courts One and Two the week of July 25, weather permitting. Courts One and Two will be closed that week. Please adjust your tennis schedules accordingly.

Remember to “like” us on Facebook to keep track of additional neighborhood and PBRA information.

On Saturday, May 7th, we will be hosting the 1st Annual Bags for Wags Corn Hole Tournament benefiting the Coalition to Unchain Dogs at Wild Wing Café in Marietta, Ga. We would be grateful if you would be able to donate any item(s) that can be placed in our silent auction and/or raffle to help us raise much needed funds. We also have Sponsorships available.

Since 2006 the Coalition to Unchain Dogs has freed over 850 dogs from their chains by building fences throughout the Southeast United States. Not only do we build fences so the dogs can run free but we also provide the funding needed to spay/neuter the dog to help reduced the overcrowding of unwanted dogs in animal shelters. Educating the public on proper care, nutrition and overall responsibility is another objective we strive to achieve by talking to dog owners.

The Bags for Wags Corn Hole Tournament’s goal this year is to raise over $5000.00 which will help the Coalition continue making positive changes in the Atlanta community by providing the services I described above.

Thank you for considering our request for your support. If you have any questions about the Bags for Wags Corn Hole Tournament, or the work of the Coalition to Unchain Dogs, please do not hesitate to contact me at info@bagsforwags.org, download this informational PDF, or visit our website at www.bagsforwags.org.

Sincerely,

Kevin Williams
Event Coordinator
