Dunaire Participates In Memorial Drive's Resurgence!

Saturday's Memorial Drive Clean-Up was a real success.  The event was sponsored by DeKalb County Commissioners Sharon Barnes Sutton and Stan Watson along with State Representatives Karla Drenner and Michele Henson and the Memorial Drive Business Association, and organized by Keep DeKalb Beautiful and Georgia Perimeter College.  Nearly 100 volunteers, including a contingent from Dunaire, showed up at 8am to tackle roadside litter, illegal signs, and overgrown sidewalks.  Memorial Drive continues to improve each day with new sidewalks and medians, new lighting, and new business moving in.  And, with community support for events like this, our "main drag" is well on its way to becoming again a real destination again for retail, restaurants, and businesses. 

It's A Great Time To Be A Dunairean!

Last night's Community Grant meeting was a great success!  THANK YOU to everyone who came out to share their thoughts and ideas.   It really is a great time to be a Dunairean! 

Dunaire Community Grant Meeting!

YOU are invited to the Dunaire Community Grant Meeting, next Tuesday, August 23rd from 7pm until 8:30pm, at Tony Nastri's home on Bretton Woods Road. 

Let’s make Dunaire a family friendly, safe, and welcoming community TOGETHER! We know everyone has very busy schedules and might not have time for a community meeting. We are asking you to take one hour and a half of your time to come and learn all the great things happening in Dunaire. You have great talents and resources to share; we want to know what they are!

We will be meeting with our new Community Coach and talking about the grant money Dunaire received and how to use those resources to beautify the Community Garden and Gathering Center.

We need YOUR input regarding how YOU would use it!

Refreshments and light snacks will be served! 

Please e-mail DunaireNeighbors@aol.com, to let us know if you'll be attending.  

Memorial Drive Community Clean-Up Day!

Dunaire will be participating in the Memorial Drive Community Clean-Up Day on Saturday, August 27th, from 8am until 11am. We need YOU to come out and see how much good can be accomplished in just a few hours!

Our main street has seen several key improvements recently, with more to come soon, but litter and illegal signs continue to be a problem. Volunteers will receive lunch from our local Memorial Drive Chick-Fil-A, "Keep DeKalb Beautiful" t-shirts, water, and opportunities for additional giveaways!

It's an easy way for you to give back to your community, improve your neighborhood, meet new friends, and get a little exercise (not to mention a Chick-Fil-A sandwich!). We'll all meet at Georgia Perimeter College, Lot 8, at 8am. If you can't make it at 8am, feel free to catch up with us!

Dunaire Dined Out at Expo Eritrean Restaurant!

Last night's "Dunaire Dines Out" event at Expo Eritrean Restaurant was a really good time for all.   We had a good turnout of "Dunaire Dines Out" regulars, and some new faces.  Expo was very accommodating, the restaurant owner, Isaac, guided our group through the menu, and the food was outstanding.  A nice evening out, a fun culinary experience, and support for a local neighborhood business.  That's what "Dunaire Dines Out" is all about! 

Dunaire Dines Out at Expo Eritrean Restaurant!

We all know Dunaire is a great place to live, and one of our biggest assets is the incredible ethnic diversity of our area. And, along with great ethnic diversity comes great ethnic restaurants! So, for this Dunaire Dines Out event, we'll be sampling Eritrean and Ethiopian cuisine at Expo Restaurant. For the less adventurous, they also serve classic American burgers, fish sandwiches, and cheese steaks, and there is a kids menu.

When: Friday, August 12th, at 7pm.

Where: Expo Restaurant at 3711 N Decatur Road.

How: We'll meet at the restaurant, and everyone will be responsible for their own check.
