The launch of the Southern Roots Mahjong Society centers on American Mahjong. Hosted by Coast & Cove Mahjong Social, the gathering offers a relaxed, welcoming setting with both guided play and open play. Whether learning the basics or sharpening long-time skills, everyone has a place at the table. Friendly company and easy conversation set the tone as games spark new connections and lasting memories with a distinctly Southern touch.

Hosted by The Bridge Wellness South, this Vision Dinner titled A Night of Hope centers on being anchored in hope and steady in love. Drawing from Hebrews 6:19 and its picture of an anchor for the soul, the evening highlights the compassionate care The Bridge provides for women, men, babies, and families. Guests will hear real stories of impact, learn how the mission is serving the community, and be invited to prayerfully consider becoming difference makers. The program features speaker Charla Turner and emcee Scott Davis and will be held in the chapel at Eagle's Landing First Baptist Church. Admission is complimentary, and registration is required. The focus is on strengthening hope for families when it is needed most.

Rescheduled due to weather, this outdoor movie night will now take place at Nash Farm Park. Enjoy a family friendly screening featuring the Minions as they head to 1920s Hollywood to hunt for spooky creatures for a film, team up with a green creature, and then scramble to save the world when real monsters appear. Bring a blanket or folding chairs and settle in on the lawn. Look for food trucks, craft vendors, a Kids Zone, Rec 'n Roll activities, photo ops, and inflatables, plus free popcorn courtesy of Regal Cinemas in McDonough.

Creepy Cruisers brings a community trunk or treat that blends spooky style with giving back. Halloween themed Jeeps will be decked out in eerie looks, all benefiting A Friend’s House, a local nonprofit that supports children in crisis. Guests can check out the vehicle showcase, enjoy trick or treating with candy and games for all ages, and warm up at a s’mores and cocoa station. Friendly competition adds to the excitement with prizes for standout vehicles, as well as top adult and kid costumes, and raffles offer extra chances to take home goodies. Anyone hoping to display a vehicle must register, and space is limited. Costumes are encouraged for a family friendly evening focused on festive thrills and a worthy cause.
