Sandy Springs Invites Community to Celebrate 20 Years of Civic Pride

The City is proud to invite residents to Celebrate 20 Years of Sandy Springs: Picnic in the Park, a celebration of two incredible decades of community, connection, and civic pride. The event will take place on Saturday, November 22 from 11 a.m.–1 p.m. at City Springs, joining the last Farmers Market of the season.

The event will feature entertainment, a specially designed anniversary cake, and a continuous shared table stretching along Blue Stone Road between Galambos Way and Mount Vernon Road. This table serves as a symbol of unity and inclusion, inviting everyone to take a seat, share a story, and enjoy a meal together.

Guests may bring their own food or purchase from a selection prepared by the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center's Executive Chef, including breakfast and lunch favorites such as French toast, bacon, scrambled eggs, fresh fruit, chicken fingers, and beverages. Mimosas and Bloody Marys will be available at the cash bar.

This milestone anniversary will also feature a special video presentation of the oral history project. The presentation brings the community's voices to life, showcasing significant milestones and memories from some of the City's most influential residents—those involved in incorporation efforts as well as representatives from the youngest generation. Children ages 6–10 ask insightful questions, and everyone is invited to take a seat and learn more.

"This event is a tribute to the spirit of Sandy Springs, where neighbors aren't just residents, but friends and collaborators in shaping our City's future," said Mayor Rusty Paul. "Come hungry, come happy, and most importantly come together as we celebrate 20 years of Sandy Springs!"
