There
are so many things to do this week! Before getting into the
details, the Social Crew staff would like to extend a BIG
congratulations to the Atlanta
Downtown Neighborhood Festival on being awarded the "Best
New Event in the State of Georgia" presented by the Georgia
Festivals and Events Association.
Volunteers are needed for this year's festival, which will
be held
in the heart of this fine city of Atlanta
on Saturday, May 17 and Sunday, May 18. If you are interested,
please contact Jennifer at downtownjen@bellsouth.net
for a volunteer form and/or for more information.
On Friday, there are several options for you! The Hawks

The Children's Museum of Atlanta Grand Opening
The museum, located at the intersection of Centennial Olympic
Park Drive and
Baker Street, is focused on providing an environment where
fun and learning
are synonymous. Upon entering, families are invited to put
their
imagination to the test as they participate in critical thinking
activities,
such as becoming a gardener, collaborating on building a giant
maze or being
the architect of a sand castle. They can pretend to be the
next Monet and
paint on the walls, learn to dance, even make their own musical
instruments.
With all the different hats children can put on, learning
history, social
studies, science, math, geography and cultural arts becomes
a fun and
exciting experience that parents will enjoy, too!
The Children's Museum of Atlanta will be open daily from 10
am - 5 pm
Admission is $11 per person, children under the age of two
are free
Groups will enjoy a discounted rate and family membership
packages.
Due to the size of the exhibits and space, advance reservations
are strongly
encouraged. For more information and to purchase tickets,
