Saint Joseph's Distributes Over 10 Tons of Food

Over 100 volunteers from Saint Joseph’s Saint Vincent de Paul Society and the Knights of Columbus Council 4599 came together to distribute over 10 tons of food to Cobb County families in need. This annual initiative, led by Saint Joseph’s Catholic Church outreach ministries, prepared over 200 Thanksgiving food boxes, each complete with turkeys, hams, and around 70 pounds of food. Thanks to the generous contributions of parishioners, the team collected over 20,000 pounds of food and meat, ensuring families not only enjoyed a full Thanksgiving dinner but also had plenty of leftovers.

Approximately 5,000 food items were collected. The race route showcased historic downtown Acworth and Lake Acworth. Notable participants included Sam Howren, who finished third, and costumed locals adding fun to the event. Acworth Mayor Tommy Allegood wished participants well, highlighting the community spirit.

STORY 4:  Small Business Grant Program gets $50K Funding Boost

The Development Authority of Cobb County has approved an additional $50,000 for the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Grant program, bringing its total contribution to $250,000 since 2019. This program, run by Cobb County’s Economic Development Department, supports small businesses with grants up to $10,000 for marketing, equipment, operational funds, and renovations. So far, 24 businesses have benefited, with 20 still operating in Cobb. The program aims to foster job creation and business growth. The Board of Commissioners will consider a new grant application from FruiTea Bubbles Cafe on December 10. 

STORY 5:  Work Underway on 600-home Marietta Development

Beazer Homes has begun construction on "Greenhouse," a 600-home development in north Marietta, marking the largest residential project in Cobb County in decades. The 175-acre site, annexed by Marietta City Council, will feature 300 single-family homes, 200 townhomes, and 100 senior-targeted homes, with amenities like a clubhouse and pickleball courts. Homes will range from $400,000 to $900,000, with completion expected by 2027. Despite initial opposition due to traffic and environmental concerns, the project emphasizes energy efficiency, aligning with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Zero Energy Ready program.

STORY 6:  We’re Thankful for Cobb's Custodians

Cobb Schools celebrate their dedicated custodians, who play a crucial role in maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming environment for over 105,000 students. With a team of 643, these custodians are often the first to arrive and last to leave, ensuring schools are ready for daily activities. They handle safety concerns, assist with deliveries, and engage with students, often going beyond their duties to support school programs. Recognized as "hidden gems," many have long careers in the district. This year, Gov. Brian Kemp acknowledged their contributions with a $1,000 bonus, highlighting their essential role in education. 

STORY 7:  Jeni's Ice Cream Coming to Marietta Square

Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams is set to open a new location in Marietta Square, joining the Bridger Properties development on Church Street. The Ohio-based ice cream company signed its lease and plans to open by summer, next to Gianni & Mac’s Ristorante Piazza Nostra, which could open as early as next month. Bridger Properties co-founders, Merritt Lancaster and Jack Arnold, noted the quick progress and local construction team. The new shop will add to the vibrant atmosphere of Church Street Park, offering a variety of dining options for visitors.

'It's Electric': Acworth Turkey Chase Draws More Than 1,100 Runners 

From the Ingles Studio this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Today is Monday, November 25th and I'm Keith Ippolito.

Nonprofit Food Bank Donates 270,000 Pounds of Food

Reflection of Trinity’s 14th annual Thanksgiving Food Drive in Powder Springs marked a record-breaking year, distributing over 270,000 pounds of food to more than 1,600 families in need. Held at Linked UP Church, the nonprofit’s effort saw over 300 volunteers, including local officials such as State Representative David Wilkerson, Cobb Chairwoman Lisa Cupid, and Sheriff Craig Owens, who worked in cold weather to ensure families received around 85 pounds of food each. This amount included Thanksgiving staples meant to cover the holiday week. The event relied heavily on community support, with most of the $37,000 worth of food sourced from the Atlanta Community Food Bank. Turkeys alone cost about $21,000, funded through donations and sponsors. Cars looped through the church parking lot, where multiple loading stations were set up for efficient distribution. Founded in 2003, Reflection of Trinity’s mission is to combat poverty by providing food, education, and essential services, creating lasting community impact.
