A Weekend of Wagging Tails: Microchipping and Agility Tests at Coweta County Fairgrounds

The Newnan Kennel Club is set to host its 3rd Annual Dog Microchipping Event on Saturday, March 16, 2024, offering a vital service for pet owners from 8 AM to 2 PM at the Coweta Co Fairgrounds . At this event, dog owners have the opportunity to microchip their pets for $20 per chip, a small price for the added security and peace of mind. Importantly, the proceeds from this event will support the "Shop with a Cop" program, making it a win-win for the community and local law enforcement.

To ensure the safety and smooth handling of pets, the organizers have stipulated that all dogs must be either on a leash or in a carrier during the event. Recognizing the varying schedules of pet owners, the event welcomes both walk-ins and those who prefer to make appointments. For scheduling an appointment, interested individuals can contact Newnan Animal Control either by phone or email.

In addition to the microchipping event, the Newnan Kennel Club is adding excitement to the weekend with a 3-day event from March 15-17. This includes the Course Ability Tests (CAT) and the Fast CAT, which are sure to be a highlight for canine enthusiasts.

A key requirement for applicants is the completion of the TVOC or Fear This 4 Life safe driving course, reflecting the foundation's commitment to promoting safety and responsibility among young drivers. Details on the application process can be found on the foundation's website or by consulting with high school counselors.

The foundation's dedication to this life-saving program is a testament to their ongoing efforts in making a positive impact in the community.

Tim Hortons Brews Up a New Spot in Newnan

In Newnan, the community is abuzz with the news of a new Tim Hortons location opening at Highway 34 and Posey Road. This development is part of a larger expansion plan for the Canadian coffee and doughnut chain, which aims to open several outlets across the greater metro Atlanta area. The Fairburn location, specifically on Senoia Road where it will replace a former Hardees that closed last year, marks a significant step in Tim Hortons' strategy to replicate its Canadian success in the United States. The site, previously occupied by Hardees, will undergo renovations to transform into the familiar Tim Hortons setting. This move comes amidst a wave of excitement in the area for various new eateries, including Raising Cane's and Whataburger, among others. Tim Hortons' expansion is expected to continue, with plans to open as many as 30 locations in Georgia by 2027, further establishing its presence in the U.S. market.
