Stay Positive and Have Fun

Volunteer Cookout this Wednesday, September 2, at 6:00 p.m.  Roswell’s best hamburger chef, Jimmy of Rhea’s Takeout, will be grilling hamburgers and hot dogs at my office, 1173 Canton Street.  Come and join me for Roswell’s best hamburgers.  Please R.S.V.P. by e-mailing me at mayorwood@mayorwood.com or calling my office at 770-641-1923. 

Qualifications

I will qualify to run for re-election as Mayor today.  I also expect Nancy Diamond and Betty Price to qualify for the two open City Council seats, and Jim Pollak to qualify to run against Councilman Igleheart.  I have not heard which seat Peter Vanstrom will be running for.  With all the good candidates for Council and a contested Mayor’s race, I expect a relatively high turnout of voters on November 3rd, which is good for my campaign. 

Upcoming Appearances

Monday, August 31st.  I attended the kickoff for the Homestretch Golf Tournament at Brookfield Country Club this morning.  Tonight I will be attending the reception for the GOP Victory Dinner in Buckhead and  returning in time for the open forum council meeting at City Hall, 7:30. 

Tuesday, September 1st.  I will be attending Tom Price’s town hall meeting at the Roswell High School auditorium.  We are expecting a large crowd; it should be interesting. 

Wednesday, September 3rd.  I will be greeting Senator Johnny Isakson at Roswell Rotary Meeting, Roswell Area Park, at 12:15 p.m.

Friday, September 4th.  I will be meeting with Tom Price to discuss transferring grant money for improvements to South Atlanta Street. Friday night I will be at Roswell High School,  rooting for both teams at Roswell High v. Centennial High varsity football game.   

Saturday, September 5th.   The Beatles are coming to town and will perform at Riverside Park starting at 7:30 .m.   Arrive early for a parking spot and bring a picnic dinner and lawn chairs.

Sunday, September 6th.  Huge fireworks display at Centennial High, sponsored by the City of Roswell and local merchants.  Hope to see you at at least one of these events. 

Yard Signs
Come and get ‘em.  You can pick up a yard sign from the breezeway at my office, 1173 Canton Street, or we will put one up for you upon request by e-mailing me at mayorwood@mayorwood.com, or by calling 770-641-1923.

Talk to your friends about the Mayor’s race. 

It’s all good
