BRACK: Tidbits of summer, including no hat, no shorts, no service

By Elliott Brack |  Summer has definitely arrived well in advance of its normal start for Gwinnett, June 21, giving us a full three more weeks of hot weather here at beginning of summer. (I like hot weather; Hurrah!)

Today let’s salute people years ago who approved planting trees in the parking lot of the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce. By having the foresight to plant shade trees, now maturing, between the rows in the parking lot, we now enjoy their summer shade, and it just makes the area a whole lot nicer.

BRACK: Relatively new city summer concerts delight many Gwinnettians

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | Virtually unrecognized among the many changes in Gwinnett is the way the cities of the county are now providing popular music venues, usually at no cost to concert-goers. People flock to these concerts, often setting up chairs a day in advance to get a good location.
