HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

Paint Georgia Pink has partnered with Gwinnett Medical Center Breast Center to bring you the Inaugural Paint Gwinnett Pink 5k Walk for Breast Cancer!!
Saturday, Oct 1, 2016 at Gwinnett Braves Complex in Buford!

The Walk will be a 5k starting and ending at the Gwinnett Braves Complex! $35 registration for Walkers or Crew. All registrants will receive a LONG-SLEEVED t shirt and other event goodies! Get registered at www.PaintGeorgiaPink.org and start that fund raising... there will be lots of great prizes for top fund raisers so get started early and we will see you the first day of Breast Cancer Month!!

APHC would like to have one happy hour per month at a fixed location, and leave the second happy hour on a roaming status.

We need everybody to a vote on where the fixed location should be.  APHC like for it to be more centrally located since we have members in Cobb, Cherokee, Gwinnett, Fulton, DeKalb, Rockdale, etc..

It would be nice for location to have room for us, and a patio would be a plus since we are heading into warmer weather.

Go to our APHC Facebook Page to participate in our Happy Hour Poll or send your suggestions to social@atlparrotheadclub.org.

We received this certificate from the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve for our Toys For Tots donations from our annual Christmas party in 2014! 

Great job, pholks!

P.S.  Richard, my husband did wonder why I was getting mail from the Marines!

We did even better in 2015!  I want to thank all those who turned up at the Christmas Party and donated all those toys!
