Memorial Day is the official beginning to summer. Congrats to all the students and families who made it through the school year! You did it! 🎓

There are tons of fun ways to kick off the season, from vibrant arts festivals to outdoor activities for all ages. And if buying a home is on your summer to-do list, we’ve got two open houses in Alpharetta you’ll definitely want to check out. 🏡
