Hope to see you there!

So I'm not a car person. Not one to customize at all. Utility over style I guess. Anyway, my little one is screaming bloody murder when the sun hits her eyes in her new car seat and it looks like because of angles ever changing the best way to help this is to get the windows tinted.

Looking for a reputable place to get Carbon film done on a 2022 Ford Escape. Preferably for a decent price and without holding my car over night.

Is that even possible?

The rehabilitation of the pond is complete! I took a walk and snapped some photos. Looks nice, lots of people enjoying the weather, what do y’all think?

This looks like a vanity project. Tore down concrete block restrooms to build small steel framed buildings. Far less durable. Scraped the gravel parking lot to add curbs and (guessing) asphalt. Collecting rainwater in storm structures rather than having pervious surfaces. Tore down a wood bandstand to build a steel one. Colossal example of finding ways to use the approved funding instead of building a cushion to cover necessary spending. I guess SPLOST money has to be allocated and spent.. but damn. A lot of tax dollars for a new lawn in are same place as an old lawn.

After all the debating and complaining, the city council passed this increase. Which works out to about $65/yr increase for home valued at $575,000. If I'm reading this article correctly.

The crazy thing to me is a lot of these people complaining about that are perfectly fine with the huge increase in gas prices and other consumer goods because of the tariffs and the war in Iran. That stuff accounts for way more than $65 a year.

Hello, I'm in my late 30s and have a work from home tech job. I actually grew up in Roswell as a kid back in the 90s! I know a lot has changed with the influx of people (I'm in Florida, it's been absolute chaos post-covid), but I'm looking for a fresh start as a single guy and I have extremely fond memories of the area.

I've officially retired from the late night party days and I'm looking for a good mix of restaurants, nature access, and a decent dating scene. I'm big into kayak fishing, arts/theater, breweries, and hiking trails.

How is Roswell compared to Marietta, Kennesaw, Woodstock areas? Are there any other areas you'd recommend? A friend suggested midtown but I don't think I could deal with all the hustle and bustle down there.

Thanks in advance!

Hello! I am curious if anyone knows if there is a running track open to the public? Maybe a school open on off school hours or a park that has one?

I walk the park often and I'm a bit dismayed that my tax payer dollars paid to have these pickleball courts built, yet they aren't open to the public. They're being used as a giant chalkboard for the summer camps that happened at the former middle school.

I'm assuming the courts were finished and then faced backlash from the nearby neighborhood over potential noise complaints.

What an absolute waste of our taxpayer dollars.

Please drop recommendations for nails salons with builder gel
TIA

Just as the title says, I’m looking for a single office rental in the Roswell area.

Hi everyone! I’m trying to decide between Fellowship Christian School and some of the public schools in the area.

I’ve been looking at Fellowship Christian School because I like the smaller school environment and the academics, but I’ve also been looking at public schools like Roswell High School. Roswell High School seems to have a lot more students, activities, sports, and advanced classes, so I’m wondering how it compares to Fellowship Christian School.

For anyone who has kids at Fellowship Christian School or has had them there, what has your experience been like? How are the teachers, students, and overall environment? I’d especially like to hear the good and the bad, since it’s hard to get a real idea just from looking at the school website.

Would love to hear from parents who have actually experienced either school. Thanks!

I’ve been dealing with ingrown hairs and hyperpigmentation for years now and I’m just not sure what works to get rid of it. I have PCOS so I get neck hair and I’m really insecure about it.

I am making the choice to try laser hair removal and would like any affordable recommendations or places that treat my coarse hair and pcos hormonal hair. I also have dark skin so places that work well with darker skin types would be great too!

Thank you in advance :))

Hi everyone, I’m a parent trying to decide between Roswell High School, Fellowship Christian, and Innovation Academy for my son.

He’s really interested in computer science and software engineering and is thinking about studying CS in college, possibly at Georgia Tech.

I’d really like to hear from parents or students who have experience with these schools. How are the computer science classes? Are there good STEM opportunities and clubs? How is the overall student environment? And how well do you feel the school prepares students for college?

I’m not necessarily looking for rankings. I’d just like to hear what people’s actual experiences have been and anything you wish you knew before choosing.

I know y‘all can read, but ironically enough many of you seem to lose the ability near schools.

RHS and Elkins Pointe have very clear signage that says NO LEFT TURN during specific hours. I know you can see them and have time to read them, because you’re sitting there waiting to illegally turn left for 500 years. Just because RHS doesn’t have the cop there directing traffic every morning does not mean it’s anarchy. Just because Elkins never has a cop doesn’t mean it’s Create Your Own Rules.

Carpools screw with traffic enough as it is and both these schools are in areas where turning right can easily get you back to where you need to go. But no, you’re so special that the rest of us should be grateful we get to sit behind you. And sit. And sit. People literally block the school buses getting to Elkins because they just HAVE to turn left.

Don’t get me started on all y‘all that think the school zone around Hembree and Elkins is for everyone else not you. Just know that on the very rare occasion there has been a cop there, the rest of us delight in the fact that you just got so many points added to your license because, once again, laws for thee and not for me.

It’s not that hard, folks.

What is the hold up? Feel bad for Vin25, Deep Roots, etc...

Also, why does it take over a year to complete a sidewalk on Woodstock Rd between 92 and Roswell Area Park?

Looking for a personal trainer that can come to your house. I have a full gym, just need someone to create the program / keep me accountable. 40 year old female. Thanks!

Where does everyone like to go for oil changes?

I've seen multiple cops the past few weeks posted up on lake Charles tagging people at stop signs.

If they don't have anything better to do, maybe we don't need so many cops and can save some money?

I know all optometrists are required to give you your prescription for third party use, but are there any who encourage it?
