Life is moving so fast.  No one sees this movement like moms.  But maybe on Mother’s Day things can slow down long enough for her to hear how much she means to you.  It has been a wonderful experience to read the entries for the “2007 Mother of the Year” contest.  I understand that around your home there is only one “Mother of the Year” but this contest gives us the opportunity to focus on the Moms of our community and select an individual that can represent all of our mothers.

You can see all the smiles from the Readers’ Choice Awards banquet held at Copeland’s located at North Point.  There the winning businesses’ owners and managers were recognized for being selected by you, the readers of Around Town Alpharetta/Milton.  What better than to be chosen as the best by your customers!

Even with the cool temperatures of last month, it is time to start planning for summer as you make your final selections for your child’s summer activities from our Camp Guide on pages 30 and 33.  

You are almost tempted to dive into our cover this month.  Georgia Classic Pool can provide your family with a cool alternative to the sweltering summer days of Georgia.  See their story on pages 16 — 17.

The 50th anniversary of Alpharetta Elementary brought faces from the past together with faces of the future.  Check out images of the celebration on page 10.  

Our community is growing and Around Town Alpharetta/Milton is growing with it!  Our distribution has grown to include families in the Windward community.  We now directly mail to more than 16,000 homes and businesses in the Alpharetta, Milton, and Windward communities.  Thank you for helping us reflect these amazing communities.
