Sunny Rain

Sights and sounds around Somersby Park are endless. Beautiful and memorable backyard views never cease to amaze us. A recent downpour came like never before.  Heavy rain fell with a distant bright sunny sky.  A few miles away, a rainbow appeared above the community and spotted from Etowah.  Later the evening sky showed off many colors.  These magical moments were captured by several residents.

 

Laurel Park Celebrates 100 Years

Residents gathered Saturday, July 5 at the town’s Laurel Green Park to mark a milestone. A Centennial picnic of BBQ, beer and festive jazz tunes were enjoyed by many on a summer afternoon . Laurel Park incorporated in 1925 but history dates back to its beginnings in the late 1800s as a recreation destination. Today nearly 3,000 people call it home including some of Somersby Park’s very own.
