3rd Annual Beat the Street for Little Feet! is this Saturday.
3rd Annual Beat the Street for Little Feet!
Feet of all sizes are welcome! Join Oakhurst Cooperative Preschool families for a Saturday morning of running and fun on October 31, 2009 at 9AM in Candler Park. The race will include not only a 5K with special jog stroller division, but also a 1-mile race for younger participants, and a “fun run” for our community’s youngest runners. Stick around for the FREE post-race Children's Festival with live children’s music, a costume contest, face painting, food, and loads of festivities for the kids.
And for all you “Pete the Cat” fans, award-winning local artist James Dean has created another one-of-a-kind race T-shirt for the event. This year, Pete and kittens are in costume! To check out the new T-shirt design and to register for the race, visit our website, www.oakhurstcoop.com. You also can register at www.active.com or at the Big Peach Running Company in downtown Decatur.
The race will start at 9:00 AM and the Festival will be from 10:00 – 12:00 Noon. Come on out and cheer! We will be posting the 5K route on our website as well as posting notices on neighborhood newsletters, and in businesses, to be sure everyone that may be impacted is aware.
Not a runner, but love Pete the Cat? Sign up to be a ghost runner and still get your t-shirt. Check us out at: www.oakhurstcoop.com for more information.

Friday Night Football: Decatur vs Avondale & It's Homecoming
Decatur Ghost Tour
WHEN: Friday October 9, 2009 - Saturday October 31, 2009 from 8:00pm - 10:00pm
Your tour begins in the heart of Downtown Decatur's Historic Town Square. A diverse enclave of quaint shops and restaurants that share common space with the ghosts of Decatur's exciting past. A stop at one of the oldest two story homes in Decatur where it's been said spirits haunt the walled up fireplaces and move freely about the grounds. We will travel down small streets untouched by time to the old train depot where late at night... the cries of the wounded soldiers might be heard, or the ghost of the station master might stare back from across the tracks. You will never forget the twilight visit to Old Decatur Cemetery... some of the city's most notable citizens are interred here. Be sure to bring your camera and don't be surprised if you capture orbs and apparitions.
Decatur's dead are pretty restless.
This is not your ordinary ghost tour.
Every stop along the Decatur Ghost Tour has claims of paranormal activity.
Reservations Required
Tour Fees $15 _ $12 Children under 10
Tour Begins at the Bandstand in Decatur Square.
Tour Times see Schedule
Please arrive 15 minutes before the tour begins as we will start promptly on the hour.

SHARIAN INC. Since 1931

~SHARIAN~
A Family Passion Since 1931
At Sharian, we have been selling, restoring and cleaning Fine Oriental Rugs for more than 70 years. Rugs have been the focus of our family for four generations. What does this mean for our customers? It means we are here to stay. We have a long history of service and integrity. And we really know our business.
Sharian was started in 1931 by Bedros and Varthouhi Sharian, and Varthouhi's brother Lutfig Geovkalayjian, Armenian immigrants who came to Atlanta in the early 1920s. The Sharian's son Bedros Sharian, Jr., led the firm along with his brother Paul, beginning in the 1950s.
Today, Bedros's children Ruth, Ritchie and Bedros III, and Paul's daughter, Lydia, are involved in running the company day-to-day. Paul has retired, but Bedros, Jr. still serves as chairman emeritus, and works every day in the showroom. The next generation of Sharians, starting with Ruth's son, Jim, is not far behind.
Our customer showroom and cleaning facility is on Decatur's main street, Ponce de Leon Avenue, where our building's art deco façade has attracted visitors since 1946.
