Casa Nuova Italian Restaurant host its annual Community Block Party—a celebration of gratitude for 28 years of friendship, loyalty, and support from the Alpharetta community. This festive event is open to all and promises an afternoon full of joy, including a complimentary buffet, live music, family-friendly games, and so much more.

In addition to the festivities, the Block Party also serves a higher purpose: supporting ongoing efforts in the fight against pancreatic cancer, a cause close to the heart of Casa Nuova owner Maria Fundora, founder of the nonprofit Purple Pansies.

Where:

Casa Nuova Italian Restaurant

This annual gathering is more than just a party—it’s a heartfelt thank-you to the community that has become part of the Casa Nuova family. “Our customers are not just guests—they’re family,” says Maria Fundora. “This Block Party is our way of celebrating them and giving back to the people who have supported us since day one.”

Dear Chamber,

Instant Imprints Cumming is a community based and community driven business that has been an integral part of the community since 2018.

There is nothing more exciting and fulfilling than being a contribution to another’s success, and we get to be that contribution every day at Instant Imprints.

The Cumming store is under new ownership and ,with the great community of Cumming in mind, let’s celebrate.

Please see the invite included (I couldn't figure out how to upload it or attach it to this email and have sent the invite under separate cover).

We would be honored if the Chamber could:

- promote and advertise the event to the Chamber members.

- attend and lead the ribbon cutting process for us at 5:30 pm on May 20^th, with new owner Ted Park and the leaders of the community including the leaders and members of the Cumming-Forsyth County Chamber of Commerce.

We have invited Mayor Brumbalow and all Council Members; as well as Representative McCormick; and the Board of Commissioners for Forsyth County.

Our community promise is Bigger, Better, Stronger, Together, and we see the celebration on May 20^th as a renewed kick-off to all of that.

And it will be fun!!! We promise FUN! And food and drink. And FUN!

Please spread the word. Feel free to tell everyone. All are welcome.

I thank you for your consideration and if you have any questions, require further information or there is something we need to do, please do not hesitate to contact myself or the store.

Sincerely,

Danny Lyon
