There are 3 great events going on at the Atlanta Botanical Garden this month. There is something for everyone to enjoy.
The first event is Scarecrows in the Garden, which runs all month long.
October 2 through October 31. Tuesday-Sunday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
It's an annual fall tradition that during October, Scarecrows in the Garden showcases nearly 100 scarecrows stuffed throughout the Garden, created by local organizations, businesses and individuals. Scarecrows displayed throughout the Garden along with beautiful seasonal decorations promise to make this year's display the best ever.

If you have your Comcast Cable Bill from June 2008, there's a 2 for 1 discount on it good through October 31. That was the last paper bill we received. I looked on the electronic billing and didn't see it after June. If you receive a paper bill maybe the discount is still showing on it. I don't know about that one. It says on my Comcast Bill to show my Comcast Bill for 2 for 1 Admissions. ------------------------------

Jen this sounds like a great time for kids and a lot safer for them then going door to door for candy.
I agree. There's a group of us going to check it out tonight and I'm meeting a Friend/Buyer there to sign a contract. Work and Play, Work and Play, life is soooo hard. :)
I would love the scarecrows in the garden event. I just think they are so much fun. Take lots of pics and show us the best ones. GBU!
I see they have a pumpkin ale. I love ale, and I love pumpkin, so pumpkin ale would seem to be natural. Nope. I had a pumpkin ale last weekend. No, no, no. Give me a piece of pumpkin pie and a Gordon Biersch ale and it would have been better. No, no, no.
Jen- Wow some great activities for the family and some for adult as well. The Atlanta Botanical Garden is a wonderful part of the your community
