Please join us for a garden party in Cobb County (the west side at last!), just a few miles from Truist Park. The party will be on Saturday, October 26 from 1 to 4 pm at the home of Anthony Donofrio and Sherman Wong:

 

3406 Kenland Rd SE, Smyrna, GA 30082

 

Please RSVP if you think you'll come. While not a binding commitment, it really helps us plan better. RSVP for 10/26 

 

There will be snacks and tasty beverages on hand. If you'd like to bring some food to share, please let us know when you RSVP  what if anything you might bring so we have a diverse selection on hand. We always appreciate help, but it is not a requirement! 
 
Notes: Anthony and Sherman follow the Asian practice of removing shoes in their home. We will have shoe covers available for those who need to use the facilities but might have difficulty removing shoes. 

 

Also, please park only on one side of the road so neighborhood traffic is not impeded.
