Stuff to Do This Fall

Nick's September/October Calendar is online.

Notable events include "double punch" nights for Frequent Pie-ers, Grantville Day Festival lunch service (September 26); the Big Feed service project on October 3 and the FERST Lewis Grizzard & Catfish Memorial Bike Ride for Literacy on October 4.

Looking for fun stuff to do this fall? How 'bout a little soul-feeding community service? You'd be surprised at how much FUN service can be!

Help us with The Big Feed service project for local food banks on October 3. We need volunteers of all ages to help with bagging & labeling items for food pantries. Financial and "in kind" sponsors can help increase the volume of food donated.

On October 4, join us as we enjoy the annual fall color show...not the turning of the leaves, but the arrival of fluorescent spandex-clad cyclists participating in the FERST Bikeride for Literacy. Rest Stop #1 will be hosted by volunteers outside Nick's Pizzeria.

Adults and older teens can get their Scare on at Grantville's Little Haunted House. Nick's is providing sponsorship in the form of a location, but the creative genius and organizer behind the thrills & chills is local resident Andy Emmitt. If you'd like to volunteer your help with "set design," throughout the next several weeks, and/or want to be an actor or behind-the-scenes participant in the spookhouse in late October, please contact Andy directly.

Chef Nick's alter-ego, Grantville City Councilman Nick Sasso, welcomes "campaign workers" able to help with managing paperwork and/or hitting the streets on behalf of the re-elect Nick Sasso campaign. Local registered voters are desirable, but anyone interested in supporting his campaign can volunteer.

The annual Hummingbird Festival is not to be missed! October 17 & 18 in downtown Hogansville. Nick's Pizzeria will be on the food court in booth #1. For information about vending or volunteering, contact Mary.

If you ever want to be involved in events we discuss in Nick's News or G.Net, simply contact us. If we are not the organizers, we will put you in touch with the people who are!

Nick Note:
As we move into fall, we'll step-up our use of Facebook, Twitter and various online restaurant directories to deliver news of quickie specials and promotions. Search for our profile under 'pizza@grantville.net.'

Nick's News will also continue to be an important source of deals and event news. Look for the next print edition in Grantville mailboxes mid-September.
