Dunwoody responds to DeKalb’s transit master plan By CONNER EVANS newsroom@appenmediagroup.com DUNWOODY, Ga. — The Dunwoody City Council submitted a resolution June 18 asking for some say in the recent DeKalb County transit plans for expanded public transit. The $25 billion, 30-year transit plan would attempt to expand paratransit services, improve bus services with bus rapid transit stations and improve first and last mile infrastructure. The plan is structured to accommodate two funding scenarios — one with a countywide half-penny sales tax increase, the other with a full penny increase. At the special called meeting, Mayor

Denis Shortal said the council needed to send DeKalb County a resolution asking to participate in the plan. One of his main concerns, he said, is the plan’s lack of a clear priority list. “Right now the question is, ‘will we have the ridership?’” Shortal said. Laura Everitt, DeKalb’s transit and rail planning manager, presented the plans to the Dunwoody City Council at its June 10 meeting as part of the county’s effort to touch base will all local municipalities. She explained the differences between the half-penny and full-penny plans. The half-penny plan would feature one light rail transit line, five bus rapid transit and nine arterial rapid transit

projects, altogether 139 project miles. It would add 14 bus rapid transit stations, five arterial bus rapid transit stations and five light rail stations in DeKalb. The full penny plan would add four light rail transit lines, four bus rapid transit and eight arterial transit projects for a total of 180 project miles. It would add 17 light rail stations, 10 bus rapid transit stations and five arterial bus rapid transit stations. Bus rapid transit station locations looks largely the same on both funding solution maps, but the biggest differences in the full-penny plan are extended light rail projects south and more arterial rapid transit in south and eastern parts of the county.

If DeKalb voters reject an additional sales tax, MARTA would concentrate on rehabilitating existing stations. Some of what DeKalb proposes to use the half penny or full penny on is regional, rather than more widespread projects, Councilwoman Lynn Deutsch said. Councilwoman Pam Tallmadge agreed, saying she wanted to see more “octopus arms” out to different parts of the county. “I’m not sure why DeKalb is being asked to absorb the brunt of these projects,” Deutsch said. Dunwoody as a city was not involved in the plans, Councilman Terry Nall said, though the public at large was in-

Dunwoody recertified as a Georgia City of Ethics DUNWOODY, Ga. — The City of Dunwoody was recognized as a Georgia Certified City of Ethics during an awards luncheon last Sunday at the 2019 Georgia Municipal Association convention in Savannah. The association’s Ethics Certification Committee has determined that Dunwoody meets the qualifications for its second recertification. Dunwoody has maintained this status since first applying in 2010. To earn a Certified City of Ethics designation, cities must adopt a resolution establishing the five ethics principles for the conduct of city officials, which includes treating all people fairly, using resources with efficiency and creating an

environment of honesty, openness and integrity. Cities that earn this special recognition must adopt an ethics ordinance that meets standards approved by the association. The ordinance must contain definitions, an enumeration of permissible and impermissible activities by elected officials, due process procedures for elected officials charged with a violation of the ordinance and punishment provisions for those elected officials found in violation of the ordinance. The committee is composed of the Executive Committee of the Georgia Municipal Association City Attorneys Section. Certification must be renewed every four years.

Dunwoody keeps mill levy rate steady While the rate remains the same, the city anticipates more revenue because the value of property has increased.

Upcoming Events

By CONNER EVANS newsroom@appenmediagroup.com DUNWOODY, Ga. — Millage rates will stay the same in Dunwoody, just as they have since Dunwoody became a city. The Dunwoody City Council held the first of three required public hearings on June 18 to set the millage rate, which is still 2.74 mills or $2.74 for every $1,000 of the assessed value of property. While the rate remains the same, the city anticipates more revenue because the value of property has increased. Real and personal incorporated property value increased from $3,905,575,475 in 2018 to $3,972,655,206 this year. This was a modest increase in the total tax digest from the prior year, city Finance Director Chris Pike said. “This is probably my least favorite meeting of the year,” Mayor Denis Short-

Deutsch also had concerns that the plans only benefit parts of the county. There is a huge need in South DeKalb for transit and economic improvement. Everyone benefits when the county as a whole becomes healthier, she said. “I think this is premature, maybe in its whole,” Deutsch said. Shortal read his drafted resolution in the meeting with corrections from other council members as follows: “The City of Dunwoody desires to have input into the DeKalb County transit plan and following on items of interest; the DeKalb County transit plans be finalized with input from the cities involved; Dunwoody must be part of the follow up of those projects, how to pay for the projects, have the Atlanta-Region Transit Link Authority coordinate the transit plans of DeKalb, Cobb, Fulton and Gwinnett to create a project list for the North Atlanta region.” The resolution passed 5-0.

The

city does not have a lot of extra money hanging around either, he said, other than a four-month reserve “rainy day” fund. The city is required to have a balanced budget, he said. The next read and public hearing for the 2019 millage rate will be at 8 a.m. July 8 at City Hall.

Play Me Again Pianos to dedicate ‘Millie’ at Donaldson-Bannister Farm DUNWOODY, Ga.​— Play Me Again Pianos, a nonprofit aspiring to make metro Atlanta more musical through 88 public piano installations, will cut the ribbon on its newest donated piano Sunday, June 30, at 3 p.m. at the Donaldson-Bannister Farm. The event is free and open to the public, and anyone is encouraged to play the piano, named “Millie.” “Street pianos and public pianos inspire people to connect with each other in ways that were once common, but seem increasingly rare,” said Jason Brett, cofounder of Play Me Again Pianos. “By adding our pianos to the landscape throughout the metropolitan area, we hope to nurture that connection into an evolution of Atlanta’s culture, community and the arts The eventual 88 pianos represent the 88 piano keys. Millie, the 21st installed overall, joins Bennett at the Dunwoody Nature Center as the second neighborhood piano in the city. Donated by the Dunwoody Preservation Trust, artist members of both the Trust and the Dunwoody Fine Art Association collaborated on the design which highlights key features in the community. “My initial vision of this project was to have nonprofit organizations in Dunwoody work together for a community cause,” said Queenie Ross, chair of the public piano project. “At our first meeting, we had members of the Dunwoody Preservation Trust, the Dunwoody Fine Art Association and Play Me Again PIanos collaborate on design. Four months and many work hours later, we have not only created a unique work of art, but have become fast friends and created a treasure for our

Dunwoody park, the Donaldson-Bannister Farm. Our accomplishment is music to our ears!” The piano was named for Martha (Millie) Adams Donaldson, who continued to run the Donaldson Farm for 30 years after her husband, William J. Donaldson, died in 1900. The farm was eventually sold at auction after her death. The piano will live permanently at the barn on the property for everyone to enjoy.

Using 1970 versus 2019, the article offered a “Reality Check — The Cost, Then and Now, of Red Rooster’s Greatest Hits.” For example, a Red Rooster Cheeseburger Deluxe, made with 85 percent lean ground Angus chuck, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise, cost $1.45 in 1970, $5.19 today. Red Rooster’s fabulous onion rings cost 99 cents then, $3.99 now. A milkshake, then $1.35, today $5.19. If you selected all three as a meal in 1970, you paid $3.79 versus $14.37 today.

Many articles use a $1 million nest egg as a retirement target. Using the “Red Rooster Index,” it takes $3,791,557 now to equal the purchasing power of $1,000,000 then, 49 years ago. However, reality suggests that the inflationary bite overall is far worse than the Red Rooster example indicates. Brewster is a small village, population 2,390 at the 2010 census. The cost of operations in Brewster is far lower than in, say, New York City, which influences meal prices.

her main job was to excel as a student at Dunwoody High. And excel she did! She made almost all A’s in courses with teachers who spoke and used textbooks only in her second language. The club erupted into applause when this was announced. She also excels in art, photography and cooking Thai food. She was interested in going to as many churches as she could to compare her faith to ours.

A highlight of the 7:15 a.m. morning was the presence of the host mother of Henry O’Connor last year in Thailand. This extraordinary woman has come to the U.S. to visit Henry and his family before becoming the president of her own Rotary Club in Bangkok. Students who go on exchanges often say, “This experience changed my life!” Mink’s presence changed these club members’ lives, too!

Rotarians bid farewell to exchange student The Rotary Club of Dunwoody recently had its official farewell tribute to their Rotary Youth Exchange student, Kewalin Chaichanawitchakit, or Mink, as she preferred to be called in the U.S. Most members of her host families, the O’Days and the O’Connors, and the other students who have returned from exchange were present to witness a review of her year in America. She compared her school to Dunwoody High; her city of Bangkok to Dunwoody; and her food to America’s.

The most difficult adjustment here, she said, was the fact that one must have a car to go places. In Bangkok, she could jump on mass transit and travel quickly to most sites. She enjoyed indoor sky diving, tubing at the lake with other exchange students and her host family, attending Braves games, a Taylor Swift concert, seeing “Westside Story” at the Cobb Galleria, a concert at the Fox and getting a kiss from a porpoise in Destin. While she had many opportunities to travel with Rotarians and hosts,

The INK PENN

The not-so-merry month of May How serendipitous that I read these words as I was preparing to write this column: “Every morning is a fresh start. Wake up each morning with a thankful heart.” At the Penn houseKATHY hold, we’re thankMANOS PENN ful to have survived the month of May which I’ve dubbed the “The merry month of mayhem.” We bid the month farewell and declared June to be “Joyful June,” a month for celebrating small milestones after a scary bout of medical mishaps.

On May 3rd, my husband fell on the tile floor in the kitchen and fractured his hip. It was a first for me to have to call 911. The Sandy Springs paramedics were fast, efficient and effective. Before I knew it, they had him on a stretcher and in an ambulance on the way to Emory St. Joseph. That’s where we learned he had a hip fracture, and where it was determined he could bypass hip surgery and instead spend time in a rehab facility to enable the bone to heal. The next day, with a list from the hospital, I went rehab shopping. I’m darned good at shopping, but this too was a first. I visited one facility and thought it might be OK, especially since it was close to St. Joseph, but I decided

I’d ask for opinions on Nextdoor. I’m glad I asked. To a person, the respondents had only negative comments and offered other suggestions. The next day I visited three more places. One was out of the question, but I was happy with the other two and called the hospital social worker with the names of those facilities. I happily checked that task off my list, only to arrive at the hospital Monday to be informed my husband needed to be in an acute rehab facility where they’d provide three hours of daily rehab. Somehow, I’d been given the wrong list. I didn’t bother with shopping this time. Instead, I identified my top three based on proximity. Naturally, it was the one farthest away that had a bed, Emory Decatur, fka DeKalb General. He was shipped off to hospital number two via ambulance that afternoon. There he got the rehab he needed and made amazing progress. The PT staff thought he might go home the following week, until, that is, he almost passed out on Mother’s Day. After several tests, they moved him to a regular hospital room for monitoring, then to ICU, where they discovered he had a massive pulmonary embolism. Ambulance number three delivered him to Emory Midtown fka

Crawford Long because that’s where the best surgeon was. Monday morning, Dr. Omar Latouf operated on him and successfully removed a 13-inch blood clot with a new, less invasive procedure he’d developed and used only two other times. To my husband, he is now known as Omar the Magnificent. After several days in ICU, my husband got to come home. Within two weeks, with a few visits from the physical therapist, he went from using a walker to walking unassisted. And just last week he was approved to resume driving. We’re thankful the not-so-merry month of May is over and that we live in an area with excellent medical facilities and physicians. We shudder to think what the outcome might have been if we lived in a small town far from these resources. It was a miserable month for my husband, but June was joyful and July promises to be the same. So yes, we’re greeting each day with thankful hearts. Kathy is a Sandy Springs resident.

Gold Star Girl Scout organizes dog adoption at 4th of July parade By CONNER EVANS newsroom@appenmediagroup.com DUNWOODY, Ga. — A Chamblee High School student is organizing part of Dunwoody’s Independence Day parade with shelter dogs for families to adopt and a photo booth where residents can donate to the LifeLine Animal Project. Sophia Sparks is getting ready to earn her girl scout Gold Star this Fourth of July by helping LifeLine, which took over management of DeKalb County animal shelters, adoption programs, spay and neuter clinics and community outreach efforts in 2013. Since that time, the organization has raised the county’s adoption rates by 150 percent. LifeLine runs DeKalb’s only animal services center, which can house up to 500 dogs at a time. “Their whole thing is ‘Are you in?’” Sparks said. “‘Are you in to make Atlanta a no-kill community?’” Sparks has been planning Paws on Parade since submitting her idea to the Greater Atlanta Girl Scout Council last summer. She’s been in contact with Julia Mayfield, the parade organizer, since last September. Sparks has spent much of her time emailing different parties and learning the rigor of event planning.

And she’s seen LifeLine’s work up close. “Last February my mom told me about these nine puppies that Lifeline needed to have a foster for, because puppies can’t be at the shelter when they’re that young,” she said. She convinced her mom to let their family be the one to take care of puppies. They held onto all nine for over a month. Once they reached adoption age, they were all gone in a few days, but the Sparkses said they found it especially hard to part with the smallest, calmest puppy, Otter. Otter, a pit bull mix, is now training to be a service dog in the Northeast, where there is actually a shortage of shelter pets, sparks said. The South has a worse problem with strays, generally. But the puppies’ mother, Maggie, was harder to find a home for. “When Maggie first came to us she was not looking the best,” Sparks said. “She was very stressed so she had a lot of hair loss because of the puppies.” After a half-hearted effort to find her a new home, they decided to make Maggie part of the family. Sparks is hoping this parade event can help bring awareness to Dunwoody with its shelter so close by. SPECIAL

Sophia Sparks is organizing Paws on Parade, a dog adoption event at the Dunwoody Independence Day Parade, to earn her Girl Scout Gold Star. “It’s so close,” she said. “It’s easy for people who live in Dunwoody to go to Chamblee and volunteer, foster, whatever.” Sparks can’t actually handle the pets herself, though. One must be 18 years or older to handle the dogs, so Sparks goes with her mom, Ellen, and they volunteer

Postpartum Pelvic Floor Disorders – Recovery after childbirth More than a third of women experience pelvic floor disorders. Vaginal delivery can lead to more significant issues in some women; pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse, all of which can require non-surgical or surgical interventions. Your pelvic floor is composed of muscles that support and allow proper function of your bladder, uterus, and bowel. During pregnancy, a mother's body prepares for childbirth. This means that the pelvic bones must separate to make room for the baby. The hormone Relaxin loosens the pelvic ligaments allowing for the expansion of the uterus and passage of the baby during delivery. This increase in hormones (around ten times the average amount prepregnancy) can also affect other ligaments. Your knees and hips may also loosen, which can contribute to pregnancy hip and back pain. While signs and symptoms may vary in severity or duration, after deliv-

Cabral Huff named boys hoops coach at Holy Innocents’ By Dunn Neugebauer For The Crier Holy Innocents’ has named Cabral Huff the new boys varsity basketball coach. Huff spent the last three seasons at Duluth High School, where he led the Wildcats to three consecutive state tournament bids, including two Sweet 16 appearances. Before his time at Duluth, he coached at the collegiate level at both Georgia Southern and Alcorn State. Huff also has private school experience. Before his collegiate tenures he coached at nearby St. Francis, where he led the Knights to deep postseason runs, including a 2014 Class A-Private state championship. A mentor as well as basketball leader, Huff is well known for developing student-athletes as well as “building men.” “I am excited and blessed about the opportunity and challenge I have received,” Huff said. “It is indeed a privilege and honor to lead a program like the one we have here. Anyone can build a team, but it is my job to build a program that helps mold young men through basketball. We will create a standard of excellence on and off the

floor through execution and accountability that helps our players leave at legacy here at HIES and the community.” Huff takes over from Adrian Collins, who served as Golden Bear leader for three seasons, where he led HI to Elite 8, Final Four and Sweet 16 finishes. Huff is already getting his 20192020 team indoctrinated, as the Bears spent the month of June working camps and staying busy in summer league play where his team turned in successful results. Holy Innocents’ Athletic Director Tony Watkins is equally excited about Huff’s joining the Golden Bear family. “We are thrilled to welcome him to Holy Innocents’ where he and his staff will continue to build on what is already a quality program with rich tradition,” Watkins said. “Coach Huff will implement the mission of HIES and develop our student-athletes in the classroom, on the court, and in the community.” The new hoops leader is inheriting a young but talented team that includes last year’s top scorers and rising juniors Chance Moore and Garrison Powell; both are already on the Division I collegiate radar.

Young St. Pius X team competes in inaugural NCAA Georgia Team Camp By Luke Winstel For The Crier Last August, the NCAA announced major changes to the high school recruiting calendar. One major change was creating two Division I evaluation periods in the month of June. High school coaches met at self-organized meetings and began planning a boys basketball team camp in Georgia to allow college coaches to scout and recruit players from all areas of the state in one camp. About 150 teams and more than 230 college coaches attended the event held at McEachern, Marietta, and Wheeler High Schools. The St. Pius X Catholic High School basketball team participated in the inaugural NCAA Georgia Team Camp. The Golden Lions are young and inexperienced after graduating 10 seniors, including all five starters from the 2018-19 squad. With only two players who received significant playing time last season, St. Pius began the tournament on Friday with a win over Denmark High School. After trailing most of the second half, St. Pius sophomore Chase Cormier tied the game with a pair of free throws. With under 15 seconds in the game, Tucker Kelly tipped an offensive rebound out to junior guard Brookes Kahlert, who drilled a straightaway three-pointer with 10 seconds to go, putting the Golden Lions ahead for good. Cormier led all scorers with 23 points. Saturday afternoon, the Golden Lions took on four-star Xavier commit Dwon Odom and the St. Francis Knights. Despite a 19-point effort from Cormier, the Golden Lions took their first loss of the tournament 56-47. Brookes Kahlert stood out to college coaches in attendance, scoring 16 points and dazzling offensively with spectacular spin moves. He also showed strong court vision, setting up his teammates well. The team camp used high school rules, with special event adoptions. One of those changes was the addition of a 30-second shot clock, which was in use when St. Pius took on St. Francis at McEachern High School. Adding shot clocks to the high school game in Georgia has been a topic of debate recently, as nine other states employ them and many Georgia coaches advocate their use. Golden Lions head coach Aaron Parr said he favors adding them to all GHSA sanctioned games. “To be honest I didn’t even notice the shot clock in the game,” he said. “We had one violation, and I think St. Francis had one or two. Most teams at the high school level are getting shots off in under 30 seconds. Where I would be a proponent of it is in late game situations.” Parr said the shot clock helps a team

that is trailing, allowing them to bide their time to get back the ball without fouling. It also stops teams ahead in the game from merely holding onto the ball to run out the clock. “It adds strategy to the game,” Parr said. Saturday night, St. Pius squared off against Dawson County. Cormier had a quiet first half, scoring only three points. He caught fire in the second half, scoring 11 points in under four minutes, and finishing with 19. Throughout the tournament, the rising sophomore showcased his ability to go on scoring runs singlehandedly and carry the team’s offense at times. Center Jack Verrill was aggressive offensively, posting 9 points and playing his best game of the weekend. Senior top 100 prospect in Georgia, Jasper Gibson scored 28 points for Dawson County, connecting on eight three-pointers. On Sunday, the Golden Lions capped off the event with a matchup against Buford. Cormier scored 10 of the team’s 16 first-half points, and the Golden Lions trailed by one at the break. Buford went on to win 41-39 and St. Pius finished the tournament with a 1-3 record. Brookes Kahlert played another fantastic game, with 11 points, four rebounds, three assists and two steals. Daniel Beverly impressed the St. Pius coaching staff with 10 points and five rebounds, showing his potential as a shooter and tertiary scorer. Parr said he was pleased with the experience his team gained over the weekend. “We played great competition — two previous state champions, a final four team, and an elite eight team,” he said. “We competed with each team. In the last game, the guys showed a lot of grit and competed at a high level. They started to understand what it takes to do that. It was a great experience for the team overall.” Parr said he was pleased with his team’s ability to play multiple defenses well. Moving forward in the offseason, the Golden Lions will be placing a major focus on improving individual strength and skill, becoming better passers and shooters. After the conclusion of the camp, Parr said the main objective was to help the kids. “The winner this weekend was the players, and that’s what it’s all about,” he said. There were not many bigger winners this weekend than Chase Cormier, who continued his meteoric rise in the class of 2022 after a phenomenal rookie campaign that earned him the AAAA Freshman of the year title. After the game against Denmark Friday night, Cormier received his first Division I offer from Kennesaw State University. Texas A&M assistant coach Lyle Wolf, and the entire

Kennesaw State coaching staff came to watch him in the Golden Lions’ matchup with Dawson County. On Sunday, University of Georgia second-year head coach, Tom Crean attended the game. The team camp was declared a major success by many in the state’s basketball landscape. Crean tweeted, “Thank you NCAA Georgia for creating this INVALUABLE event for all players, coaches, families, and colleges to attend. It is great to be able to see them with their schools. There is some tremendous coaching going on in our state with these programs.” Georgia Tech head coach Josh Pastner stated his approval by tweeting, “A big thank you and congratulations to NCAA Georgia for running an outstanding team camp event — absolutely tremendous! Extremely well-organized and executed — an excellent representation of our great state!” NCAA Georgia will be hosting a top 100 prospect camp on June 28-29, another inaugural recruiting event in the state of Georgia. The invite-only camp brings in the combined top 100 players between the 2020, 2021, and 2022 classes. Cormier will participate as the only representative from the Golden Lions squad.

St. Pius X hosts annual George B. Maloof 7 on 7 Tournament

SPORTS

By Luke Winstel For The Crier Last Friday, the St. Pius X football program hosted their annual 7 on 7 summer football tournament, named after legendary coach, George B. Maloof. Norcross won the event, knocking off Brookwood in the championship game. The young and inexperienced St. Pius X Golden Lions got off to a rocky start, dropping their first four games to begin the day. The team played better as the tournament wore on and finished on a high note, knocking off Alexander and Alcovy High Schools. Despite an overall 2-4 record, head coach Paul Standard had several positive takeaways, “Our team has shown not only at the 7 on 7, but throughout the summer practices that they are coachable and willing to push through tough situations.” Standard was pleased with the team’s growing unity and stated, “This team showed great character as we struggled early in the tournament, but really picked up our play in the last 4 games.” He noted that the team’s strengths at this point in the season are their work ethic and willingness to push themselves to overcome their lack of experience. Despite a small senior class, the team has excellent leadership that is helping the young squad grow and mature on the field. Seniors Nick Joiner, Lawson Schultz, Tiger Turner, Joe Miller, and Mark Weick have emerged as team leaders and garnered praise for leading by example. Heading into the 2019 season, the Golden Lions are looking to replace the vast majority of their starters from a year ago. Several players are being asked to play on the varsity level sooner than they normally would and the tournament helped the team increase their confidence and gain experience in their new roles. The quarterback position is one of the biggest questions for the program coming into the 2019 season. Threeyear starting quarterback Connor Egan graduated, leaving a massive void in a pivotal position in the team’s tripleoption offense. After the tournament, Standard singled out the performance of rising junior, Dennis O’Shea, claiming that he has emerged as a leader at the quarterback position. On Wednesday, the team will take on Lakeside, Grady, and Chamblee in another summer 7 on 7 event.

Appen Media Group announces new podcasts By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Appen Media Group’s podcast family is growing. One new show, “The Re-Readables,” premiered June 11 on all podcast platforms. Hosted by intern Conner Evans, the show covers high school and college literature as well as some young adult fiction in a new light. It includes show categories like “Best Scene,” “What Aged the Best?” “What Aged the Worst?” and “Best ‘Over-Writing.’” The idea for the podcast came from a similar show that looks back on old movies, Evans said. “I think a lot of times novels that you

read in school can have all the life sucked out of them when all you focus on in ‘The Great Gatsby’ is the green light and old money verses new money,” he said. “There’s so much that can pop out at you that you can fall in love with when you revisit books later on. Plus, I just love talking about this stuff with my friends with categories that we can argue over a little. Hopefully, it makes people want to read some of these and get something new out of them.” Another show, “The Good Life,” is expected to premier this month on podcast platforms and YouTube. Hosts Frank Duffy of Duffy Realty and attorney Frank Giudice, along with featured guest Ted Jenkin, CEO of

oXYGen Financial, will welcome listeners into “The Good Life” each week with topics like sports, drinks, steaks, business and gambling. “‘The Good Life’ is a group of successful local Atlanta businessmen sitting around a steak dinner at a fine restaurant raising a glass or two talking about subjects that interest guys (and curious women) in pursuit of extracting the most out of the ‘good life,’” Duffy said. “It’s a two-hour, weekly, unapologetic, nostalgic return to the era of the Rat Pack.” “Jenn Means Business” is also expected to launch this month on all podcast platforms and YouTube. The show, hosted by Jenn Errico, covers everything a young female profes-

sional needs to know to make her mark in the professional world, stand out and succeed in corporate America. “It’s important as a woman in corporate America to know how to navigate certain situations when society often still sees it as a ‘man’s world,’” Errico said. “I’ve been fortunate to have some great mentors throughout my career and am excited to be able to share my knowledge and experience with women (especially young women and m illennials) who may not be as fortunate to have strong, powerful women in their corner.” One of Appen’s most listened to shows, “Lunch Break,” is also expected to premier its second season soon. Host AJ McNaughton will return with his wife Kimber as they eat and drink their way around St. Louis. “Our goal at the Appen Podcast Network is to provide our listeners with a wide variety of entertaining content so that you are sure to find your new favorite show in our rapidly growing library,” said Director of Media Production Daniel Milana. Local business owners interested in advertising on an Appen podcast can email Milana at daniel@appenmediagroup.com.

“Driving Miss Daisy” comes back to Georgia Ensemble Theatre ROSWELL, Ga. — Georgia Ensemble Theatre, the professional North Fulton theater company, is driving to Brookhaven this summer to remount its acclaimed production of the Pulitzer prizewinning play “Driving Miss Daisy” by Alfred Uhry. In partnership with Oglethorpe University, the theater brings “Miss Daisy” to the Brookhaven area college June 28-July 21 at the Conant Performing Arts Center.

Murphey reprising their roles from earlier this year. The production runs at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and at 2:30 p.m. Sundays for four weeks. Set against the historical backdrop of Atlanta’s development through the mid20th century, the story of aging Southern matron Daisy Werthan, her longsuffering son Boolie and her chauffeur, Hoke Colburn, unfolds over 25 years of friendship, loss, racial tension and love. Ticket prices for “Driving Miss Daisy” at the Conant Performing Arts Center will start at $35. Book early for best prices.
