Cabbagetown Community Garden
is Approved by the UDC!
Members of the Cabbagetown
Community Garden, lead by
James Clawson, went before
the Urban Design Commission
(UDC) Tues afternoon for
approval on their garden design.
The meeting went really smooth
and quick, given all the hard
work that went into preparing
for it. Nobody opposed to the
garden showed up at the meeting
and the commission had no
questions. Members of the UDC
did comment positively on our
community participation process
and expressed enthusiasm for
the idea that we were bringing
a garden into our historic
neighborhood. They concluded
our time in front of the council
by unanimously approving our
application with a vote of six people
for the motion and none opposed.
The next Neighborhood Meeting
will be held on
Tuesday, May 11th
at the Community Center *

King Middle School Future Leaders
Connect with the BeltLine
Custom Curriculum Will Engage Eighth Graders in their
Neighborhoods’ Development
Atlanta (April 28, 2010) – Nearly 200 King Middle School eighth
grade students will kick off a month-long, hands-on exploration
of how the Atlanta BeltLine redevelopment will improve their
neighborhoods economically and environmentally at a program at the
school at 545 Hill Street, in southeast Atlanta at 9:15 a.m. on Friday,
April 30. The BeltLine is revitalizing and enhancing the quality of
life in neighborhoods around the core of Atlanta with investment
in transit, trails, parks, affordable housing, historic preservation and
environmental remediation.
“Who Stole Your Identity,” a program created by the CrimeOut
Foundation to help youth understand how their identity is connected
to their environment, their community and their power to give back,
will launch the integrated learning experience. Teachers at King Middle
School developed the curriculum, “Learning Through the Eyes of the
Beltline,” with support from The BeltLine Partnership, CrimeOut, the
Greening Youth Foundation, Trees Atlanta, the Museum of Design
Atlanta, and Perkins + Will.
“During the last 10 years, there’s been a disconnection between
children and nature,” said Robby Astrove, Program Coordinator
for Trees Atlanta. “Our goal is to connect students to nature in the
context of the BeltLine by encouraging them to take action through
leadership. We’re exposing children to the rapidly growing field of
green jobs. There’s not only hope for the future. There are jobs as well.”
The curriculum will include English and Language Arts, Math,
Physical Science and Visual Arts. Students will integrate the BeltLine
project plan with their academic studies using research, math and
artistic skills to examine how the changes will determine economic
and environmental improvements for their neighborhoods.

SEABA Updates
Ashley McCartney and Jeffrey E. Rogers, Sr.
SEABA (South East Atlanta Business Association) was created through the
merger of the Reynoldstown/Cabbagetown Business Association and the Grant
Park Merchants Association in 2006. Our most important goals are to strengthen
and grow the business community and enhance the quality of life for all residents.
SEABA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation operated by volunteers.
Our April business meeting at Six Feet Under Pub & Fishhouse
was fun and insightful. We began the meeting with our new
networking strategy wherein each person present gave a brief
presentation about his or her business. We were fortunate
to hear the presentations from our own members, as well as
from guests from the Kirkwood Business Association. That
information is now available on the SEABA website!
We also had a great presentation by Tracey Daniel of Xanadu
Financial about the tax advantages and implications of hiring
workers that live in the empowerment zone as well as other
potential tax benefits of running a business in our neighborhood.
You can reach her at [email protected].
On May 20, 2010, our Soiree will unfold from 5:30-7:30 p.m.
at Agave! Please check our website (www.SEABAga.org) for
updates. Friendly and eclectic conversations abound! Come
join us and find out what’s happening around town.
SEABA alternates regular monthly happenings on the 3rd
Thursday with either Meetings (presentations, discussions,
information exchanges) at Six Feet Under or Soirees (informal
networking parties) at various local establishments. All are
welcome to join us for any of these events.
Please check the SEABA website www.seabaga.org for
information about our new membership guidelines, committee
leaders, membership benefits, and tactical and strategic plans
for 2010. If you would like to be on our mailing list or know
more about our organization just send an email to seaba@
comcast.net and we’ll get back to you.

Life in The Cabbagehood
“Do Something Special for a Friend Today”
I was beyond excited with the spring
cleaning, planting and planning
that lay ahead .I never imagined
I would be booking a last minute
flight to Kalamazoo Michigan to
attend the memorial service for my
oldest and best friend, but I did. I’m
not going go into the details but I
was taken completely off kilter. The
I was asked to speak at the service…
SPEAK…oh sure… why not … I
Mikel Dominiack
could barely breath! So I went –it
[email protected]
was painful, as you can imagine.
What struck me most when I did
my usual ritual when a friend passes; I open my Day-Planner and with
a red Sharpie I write the “Deceased” across the names and address’. As
I paged through the alphabet I was overwhelmed by all the red I came
across on my way to the letter “K”. Literally every page had a person
who had passed away. One had FIVE! I guess I should have been
more prepared with the long term issues of getting older. I do realize
that this is what happens as we age, but I’m not at all pleased with the
bleak realization that every person who means something special to
me will one day have the word “deceased” written over their names.
It is what it is so let’s, move on before I consider taking too many
“Ambien” and calling it quits! I want to change gears but before I do
I want you to open up you Day-Planner and reconnect with someone
you haven’t spoken to in a while. It is much more rewarding writing
in red!
Speaking of getting older DAVID DECHANT turned FORTY…
pause...again? He threw one heck of a birthday bash. I didn’t get to
speak David that evening, as it was the same day that I got the call
about my friend’s passing. I did bake some Cheesecake Brownies and
with Judy Staples and Bertha Wise we came to give you the usual
“Over the Hill” razzing. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get into the swing
of it, and there is nothing worse than a dreary, teary, intoxicated
queen at someone else’s party. I feel like owe him a b-day beverage.
So, whenever you are ready, David, give me a call!
Well, I couldn’t help but notice that a few Cabbagetown porches
have been adorned with some specialty lighting and I am so happy
it adds such a sparkle to our little vipers den! As a Committee Chair
I feel I should tell you, we are having some “anxiety issues”. We
are working our hinnies off planning the event. In fact we already
have a website, sponsors, donations and activities even for our littlest
Cabbageheads . But we are not the CNIA, and are concerned the
community may not want to support another “Christmas-likeCrawl”. There are considerable expenses with this type of social
gathering they would be coming out of our pockets. So why are we
doing this? Well our good neighbor Susan McCracken, had to accept
the fact that she would have to go into debt over $5.000.00 to ensure
that her wonderful little “Sugar” could receive the veterinary care
she needed. We would all do the same exact thing! Our committee
thought this would be a great way to lend a helping hand. You will
be receiving a letter from me and our committee inquiring about
your participation with regard to the Porch Crawl and BBQ. It’s a
“feeler” to find out if you would attend or if you would like us to do
another type of fundraiser. So please take the time to let us know
what YOU want to do.
Well, I have just returned from a very emotional experience, and I
have two weddings in the next two weeks, plus our “Light-Up the
Night Event” and a list of parties I have been asked to attend. I got to
get some stuff done and as always my good friends, I look forward to
seeing you – IN THE HOOD.

Bio:
After 4+ years of being an only child, Leelu Dallas became a big sister. Leelu was very spunky in her in her youth but in the year before Fafi
La Rue joined the family, Leelu had become quite the lump. At home you will find Fafi following Leelu from one sunny spot to another either
to cuddle or chew on her multitudes of neck. Playtime gets pretty bonkers but only at home or in our back yard. In public you won’t be able
to tell how close these 2 ladies are. Instead you will find Fafi fearlessly greeting any and all dogs she sees while Leelu is off by herself chewing
mulch. They are both very friendly ladies that wouldn’t hurt a fly, so please say hi the next time you see them.
