The Cobb Chamber named Proda Technology the 2026 Small Business of the Year at its Small Business of the Year Awards Luncheon, presented by 1885 Grill and S.A. White Oil Company.

Proda Technology is a nationally recognized, cybersecurity-focused managed IT firm — serving organizations across the United States. They’ve grown from a small founding team to more than 35 professionals. From 2023 to 2025, Proda experienced revenue growth by 50 percent. Their charitable giving has nearly doubled over that same period.

Their growth has been driven by three core principles: Investing in exceptional people; continuously improving operations; and staying relentlessly focused on protecting the businesses and communities they serve.

As the Chamber’s 2026 Small Business of the Year, Proda Technology will compete in the state’s small business of the year competition.

Competitive Application and Selection Process

To be considered for the Top 25 Small Businesses of Year, each hopeful candidate submits an application to the Cobb Chamber. The applicants must prove an increase in sales or unit volume, provide examples of innovation, discuss adversity and challenges, and thoroughly detail their community involvement. Applications are analyzed and considered by a group of independent community business leaders and affiliates of the U.S. Small Business Administration.

After all of the submitted applications are judged and rated, five finalists are selected based on their numerical score. The five finalists are then put through a second step in the application process – a site visit by an independent panel of judges. The visit is meant to be a fresh, in-person opportunity to present the ideals, practices, values and day-to-day operations discussed in their initial application.

East Cobb PTA names 2026 Margie Hatfield Scholarship winners

May 11, 2026 by Wendy Parker

Submitted information and photo:

The East Cobb County Council of PTAs (ECCC PTA) named its 2026 recipients of the Margie Hatfield Scholarship at its general meeting at Kell High School in April. Hatfield is a former ECCC PTA president, and the ECCC PTA scholarship was named on her behalf due to her diligent work and tireless commitment to the students of East Cobb.

Every year, ECCC PTA offers a $1,000 service-based scholarship to deserving seniors at each of the six high schools in the East Cobb area. Each recipient has worked hard to be successful, not just in their scholastic endeavors, but also by giving back to the community through their service and their time.

Selected from 28 applicants across six schools, the scholarship recipients are:

Sadie Herrera, Kell High School, who will attend Kennesaw State University to study Finance and Pre-Law. In addition to being a stellar student, Sadie is an accomplished BMX racer and mentor to others, especially other girls. Whether it is organizing girls only clinics or in a leadership role, she has a passion for changing the BMX space to be one in which girls feel welcome in participating in the sport.

Jonathan Lewelling, Lassiter High School, who will study Nuclear Engineering at Georgia Tech. Jonathan’s thirteen years of Scouting culminating in being an Eagle Scout laid the foundation of responsibility, civic duty, and community service. He’s not only a talented engineer, but he’s involved in Trojan Buddies, a student organization that fosters inclusion for students with disabilities.

Grayson O’Daniel, Pope High School, who will attend Auburn University where she will study Psychology on a Pre-Physical Therapy track. Described by those who know her as “quietly extraordinary”, Grayson’s journey is one filled with persistence and a genuine care for the community. She’s been part of Make-a-Wish Youth Leadership and makes weekly visits to a local personal care home.

Jenay Scott, Sprayberry High School, who will study Accounting at Clark University. Jenay is a leader in the community by mentoring the next generation through her work in the Future Successors Program and Girls in Excellence. In her words, “Each hour spent mentoring, planting, or organizing has been a step toward creating a world that is kinder, more equitable, and filled with opportunity.”

Katherine Fallaw, Walton High School, who will attend University of Texas to study Early Education. Katherine’s work with children in running a swim school and in advocacy with student government embody what PTA and this scholarship is all about. Her experiences have inspired her to pursue a career in education to help students build confidence and develop a positive relationship with learning from an early age.

Avi Jaiswal, Wheeler High School, who will study Neuroscience at Georgia Tech. As the founder of Cobb Serve, Avi has been able to provide elementary students with a way to volunteer and learn the importance of service to the community. This passion for service extends into his professional aspirations where he hopes to make science accessible to the families who need it most.

As the largest council within the state of Georgia, the East Cobb County Council of PTAs promotes the academic achievement and well-being of all students within the 35 schools within East Cobb.

Braves legendary manager Bobby Cox, East Cobb resident, dies

May 11, 2026May 9, 2026 by Wendy Parker

Braves legendary manager Bobby Cox and East Cobb resident dies

Former Atlanta Braves manager Bobby Cox, a longtime East Cobb resident and a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame, has died at the age of 84.

The Braves announced Cox’ passing on Saturday. He had been suffering from congestive heart failure and other health issues related to a stroke in 2019.

Cox, who managed the Braves on two occasions—from 1978-81 and from 1990-2010—is fourth on the all-time Major League Baseball list for wins by a manager with 2,504, as he led Atlanta to 15 division titles, five National League championships and the World Series crown in 1995.

“While Bobby’s passion for the game was unparalleled, his love of baseball was exceeded only by his love for his family,” the Braves said in a statement.

“It is with the heaviest of hearts that we send our sincerest condolences to his beloved wife, Pam, and their loving children and grandchildren.”

Cox died three days after the passing of former Braves owner and CNN founder Ted Turner, who hired Cox after the 1977 season. Cox, who had been a first-base coach with the New York Yankees, had not been a manager before.

The Braves went 266-323 before he was dismissed by Turner, who said he needed to make a change but wanted to hire someone like Cox.

Cox managed the Toronto Blue Jays from 1982-85 before returning to Atlanta as the Braves’ general manager. In the front office, he helped develop roster parts that would lead to the team’s dominance in the 1990s.

He was regarded as the ultimate players’ manager. “I never wanted to go anywhere else; I wanted to play for Bobby,” said former Braves pitcher Smoltz.

Cox was inducted in the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2014 with two of his Braves’ pitchers, Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux, followed a year later by Smoltz.

Two other Braves’ players under Cox’ tutelage have Hall of Fame credentials: Third baseman Chipper Jones, inducted in 2018, and center fielder Andruw Jones, who will be inducted in July.

Cox also holds another Major League record, although it is unofficial, for having been thrown out of 162 games by umpires.

In 1991, the Braves reached the World Series for the first time in Atlanta, then defeated the Cleveland Indians for their first World Series championship in 1995.

Cox’ playing days were brief. He was a third baseman for the Yankees from 1968-69, but injured knees prompted his retirement after 229 games in the majors, and he soon embarked upon a baseball coaching and managing career.

Early in the 1995 season, Cox was arrested by Cobb County Police on a domestic violence complaint from his wife, following an argument at their home near Atlanta Country Club.

Both denied at a press conference that there was a physical altercation, and he did not miss any time away from the team. Battery charges against Cox were later dismissed.

In his retirement, Cox spent time on a farm he owned in the north Georgia mountains before selling it in 2021.

Due to declining health, Cox was an infrequent visitor to Truist Park. He last took in a game in August, at the 30th anniversary celebration of the Braves’ 1995 World Series title.

Among those paying tribute to Cox Saturday were Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, and Braves fans turned out at Truist Park and laid flowers at a Cox statue.

Funeral arrangements have not been announced.

East Cobb students surprise mothers with ‘dazzling diamonds’

May 9, 2026 by Wendy Parker

An East Cobb jewelry store owner has partnered with the Cobb County School District to encourage young people to take up writing and creativity while honoring their mothers.

The Dazzling Diamonds initiative is conducted in time for Mother’s Day, with elementary students at East Cobb schools writing essays whose winners are chosen in each grade, kindergarten through fifth.

The mothers of the winners receive a 1/4-carat genuine round-cut brilliant diamond from David Douglas Diamonds and Jewelry, which began Dazzling Diamonds more than 20 years ago to honor the mother of founder Doug Meadows, who passed away from cancer in 1990,

“This is just one small way we can give back to the community and honor moms in the process,” Meadows said in a release issued by the Cobb school district.

2026 Dazzling Diamonds for Mom Winners

Kindergarten — Rocky Mount Elementary School — Annelle Geren
1st Grade — Garrison Mill Elementary School — Libby Blythe
2nd Grade — Davis Elementary School — Alice Pass
3rd Grade — Sope Creek Elementary School — Parker Chernoff
4th Grade — Mount Bethel Elementary School — Brooklyn Moore
5th Grade — Murdock Elementary School — Z.Z. Tonng Mayega

More about the some of the individual recipients and their mothers, from the district release, along with their photos:

At Garrison Mill Elementary, first grader Libby Blythe was surprised in front of her classmates when her parents joined her in the media center to learn she had won the contest. Meadows read Libby’s heartfelt essay aloud, leading to an emotional celebration with her family.

“In my opinion my mommy deserves a diamond,” Libby wrote. “First, she has good cooking, but sometimes she burns it. Second, I love cuddling with her. Finally, she is the best!”

At Mount Bethel Elementary, fourth grader Brooklyn Moore and her mother, Stephanie, learned of their win during the school’s morning announcements.

“I’m extremely proud of her for writing something so beautiful,” said Stephanie Moore. “Being a mom is one of the best parts of my life.”

Meanwhile, students at Davis Elementary cheered as second grader Alice Pass received her winning certificate from Meadows in front of her classmates and mother.

“It’s so cool when they get so excited, and their faces are just priceless,” Meadows said.

At Mount Bethel, the surprise came during the school’s morning announcements when Principal Michelle Gillham sat next to Brooklyn Moore and her mom, Stephanie, as they were informed that they had won the Dazzling Diamonds for Mom contest.

“I’m extremely proud of her for writing something so beautiful. Being a mom is one of the best parts of my life,” said Stephanie Moore.

After the announcement, Brooklyn’s classmates erupted in cheers and applauded the fourth grader for winning a diamond for her mom.

At Davis Elementary, Mrs. Brent’s second-grade class got a big surprise when Doug Meadows walked in to present Alice Pass with a certificate naming her a winner of the Dazzling Diamonds for Mom writing contest.

“It’s so cool when they get so excited, and their faces are just priceless,” said Doug Meadows

Alice had a shocked look on her face and was then greeted by a big hug from her mom in front of her second-grade class.

Submitted information: Marietta History Center to present American presidency event

The Marietta History Center invites the public to explore the history of the American Presidency through the remarkable personal collection of local historian and collector Russell Clayton on Saturday, June 27th, at 2:00 p.m. in the Museum’s Community Room.

This program is part of the Marietta History Center’s ongoing celebration of America’s 250th anniversary (America250), connecting local and national stories through history, art, and civic dialogue. As part of this celebration, the Marietta History Center is proud to offer this program free to the community.

Clayton, a sixth-generation Marietta native and retired Cobb County educator, will share items from his extensive collections related to the American Presidency and the White House. Featured materials include presidential autographs, rare books, vintage engravings, Christmas and holiday cards, gifts, and campaign buttons spanning multiple eras of U.S. history.

Clayton’s lifelong fascination with the presidency began at the age of eight, when his father took him to Washington, D.C. That early experience sparked a passion that has grown into decades of collecting and research. His presentation offers a personal and engaging look at the individuals, traditions, and symbols that have shaped the nation’s highest office.

Guests are encouraged to arrive early, as Clayton will be available prior to the official program to showcase additional items from his collection and speak informally with attendees.

Members may reserve tickets by emailing [email protected]. Tickets are also available online or in-store.

East Cobb author publishes ‘Song of the Chattahoochee’ novel

East Cobb author publishes 'Song of the Chattahoochee' novel

East Cobb resident Duncan Dobie has published more than a dozen books about the outdoors, and his work as a writer and photographer on the subject has appeared in a number of newspapers and magazines.

Now he’s turned to fiction for his latest publication, a historical novel set in what is now known as East Cobb and what he describes as a “coming-of-age thriller blended with tragic loss, survival and triumph over evil.”

Published by Sporting Classics, “Song of the Chattahoochee” tells the tale of four high school seniors living near a horse farm off Johnson Ferry Road in 1965.

This was the time before the community became known as East Cobb, and as suburbanization was coming to Cobb County.

East Cobb author publishes 'Song of the Chattahoochee' novel

The boys love horses and fly fishing, but their lives are disrupted right before graduation when they witness a drug deal that goes wrong. That sets up “a deadly cat-and-mouse game with some very ominous characters. The lives of the four teens are drastically altered as the hot summer days ahead become an epic struggle to stay one step ahead of some dark and extremely dangerous drug lords,” according to the book’s promotions.

The plot from there involves “an epic struggle to stay one step ahead of some dark and extremely dangerous drug lords.”

Much of Dobie’s career has been devoted to writing about deer hunting, and in particular whitetail deer, both in Georgia and across the country.

Many of his books are lush with historic photography from the hunting world. The three-part “Dawn of American Deer Hunting” was published by Penguin.

Most recently, he’s been writing about turkey call makers, and recorded the following video in late 2024 at the Unicoi Call Maker Show in Helen, Ga., one of the top events in the country for that activity.

“People love going back in time, and I love writing about the old stuff,” Dobie said in explaining his approach to his work.

Cobb commission candidates endorsed by ex-county leaders

May 7, 2026May 7, 2026 by Wendy Parker

Cobb commission candidates endorsed by ex-county leaders

The two Republicans vying in the District 3 primary for Cobb Board of Commissioners have been touting some high-profile endorsements as early voting continues.

They’re both private citizens now, but former Cobb County Communications Director Ross Cavitt (left in above photo montage) has come out in favor of Chris Wasserman.

He’s a business owner and first-time candidate for public office who’s challenging four-term incumbent Commissioner JoAnn Birrell.

She’s picked up the support of former Cobb Police Chief Stuart VanHoozer.

Cavitt, who was in his post for eight years until retiring in January, said he is backing Wasserman because “Chris seems genuinely interested in serving the people of Cobb County, and District 3 residents in particular. He has a keen interest in Cobb’s future and the issues that affect our community.”

Cavitt further said on his personal Facebook account on Sunday that “District 3 is long overdue for new leadership,” but he didn’t elaborate. Instead, he said Wasserman will be a fiscally responsible voice who will fight to ensure District 3 receives its fair share of county services and investment — not advocate for costly projects in other districts” and that he has “no hidden agenda.”

Cavitt campaigned with Wasserman at an event Thursday at East Cobb Park.

VanHoozer retired as Cobb Police Chief in 2025, just as the new Precinct 6 station opened in Northeast Cobb. He said in a video announcement in late April that Birrell is “kind, genuine and deeply committed to this community.

“As a commissioner she just doesn’t talk about supporting public safety. She shows up and supports all aspects of the job.”

VanHoozer also referenced Birrell’s support of the military, and the Cobb Veterans Memorial project (whose funding Wasserman has criticized), as well as funding for a police K-9 kennel.

“She’s always supported pay and benefits for public safety,” VanHoozer said. “JoAnn Birrell loves the people of Cobb County and she represents us with heart.”

Birrell also announced on her campaign’s Facebook page Thursday that she’s been endorsed by Marietta Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin and former State Sen. Lindsey Tippins.

District 3 includes most of East Cobb. The winner of the Republican primary on May 19 (you can read profiles of Birrell and Wasserman at the links below) will face Democrat Kevin Redmon in November.

Redmon said on Thursday his campaign has raised more than $65,000 for the general election.

NE Cobb RaceTrac zoning nixed again by Planning Commission

May 5, 2026 by Wendy Parker

*“I just don’t see that this is an appropriate use of this property,” Cobb Planning Commission member Fred Beloin said.*

Several months after ruling out a gas station a busy corner in the Town Center Mall area, the Cobb Planning Commission on Tuesday voted in a similar manner on a revived rezoning case that has generated substantial opposition.

By a 3-2 vote, the board voted to recommend approval of a request by RaceTrac, Inc. to rezone two acres on Bells Ferry Road at Barrett Parkway in Northeast Cobb for Neighborhood Retail Commercial (NRC) zoning (you can read the request and analysis here).

The stipulations included in the approved motion prohibit fuel and alcohol sales, which is primarily what RaceTrac had in mind for a 16-pump fueling center and convenience store that would be open 24/7.

Following a discussion that lasted more than an hour and a half, Planning Commission member Fred Beloin made a substitute motion to incorporate those and other restrictions, just as he had in October.

Beloin renewed his concerns about traffic and environmental issues at the site, where the historic McAfee House once stood, and that is next to a daycare center and across from Bells Ferry Elementary School.

At last month’s meeting some citizens suggested professional or office use for the land, which has sat vacant for years.

The McAfee House was built in the 1840s and was used by a Union general during the Civil War. The home was relocated to Cherokee County earlier this year by Cobb Landmarks, an historic preservation non-profit.

RaceTrac withdrew its initial request in October before the Cobb Board of Commissioners was scheduled to hear it, then refiled it earlier this year with few changes.

The Planning Commission held the revived case last month, but Beloin said that “my concern is that this is too close to a school.”

Nearby residents, school parents and the operator of the day care center turned out to speak out against the RaceTrac proposal.

Kevin Moore, RaceTrac’s attorney, reiterated previous statements that the pumps and fuel tanks would have equipment to capture gas vapors from the pumps.

He added the land in question—currently zoned for Planned Shopping Center, which doesn’t allow for a gas station—is suited for the requested use, since it’s surrounded by commercially zoned land.

“To deny this property the very same level of commercial use that the other properties have been provided, is making this property a sacrificial buffer for this intersection,” Moore said.

“That does not comport with the laws and rules of planning and zoning.”

Sara Micheletto, a new Planning Commission appointee of Commissioner Erick Allen—whose District 2 includes the two-acre property—had made a motion at Tuesday’s hearing to recommend approval with a number of stipulations that allowed for a gas station.

But after reading from environmental reports about cancer risks from benzine, a distilled petroleum product, Beloin said that “I don’t think there’s any serious question that people should not be breathing any great quantities of benzine on a regular basis.”

He cited various distance requirements in other jurisdictions, as well as those cited for increased cancer risks, and noted that Cobb has no such restrictions on how close fuel storage tanks can be located to such sensitive operations like child care centers and schools.

“We don’t have a strict rule, but we don’t have a strict rule that we’re supposed to stick our heads in the sand like an ostrich,” Beloin said, generating some applause in the audience.

“Where this community stands, there is no doubt. I just don’t see that this is an appropriate use of this property.”

The other uses that would be prohibited include vaping and tobacco sales, car washes, automotive uses or any type of drive-through business.

Beloin and Planning Commission members Deborah Dance and Deidre Massey voted for his substitute motion; Micheletto and Chairwoman Nadia Faucette voted against it.

Micheletto said before the vote that “we have a prime corner that has to have something built here and this solution did bring positives for the community.”

The Cobb Board of Commissioners will consider the case on May 19.

Cobb high school Habitat coalition kicks off 2026 season

Habitat for Humanity of NW Metro Atlanta (Habitat NWMA) kicked off its 2026 build season in partnership with the Cobb County High School Coalition.

On April 25, the Cobb County High School Coalition joined Habitat NWMA for the first build day of the season in Douglasville.

Five Cobb high schools are participating in this year’s coalition: Campbell, Harrison, Hillgrove, Pope, and Walton High School Habitat for Humanity student chapters. This effort marks the 29th Habitat home built in collaboration with Habitat clubs from Cobb County high schools.

“The Cobb High School Coalition brings energy and passion every year as they join Habitat’s mission. Their flexibility to support both our Curb Appeal Program, serving homeowners in Smyrna, along with building a new house in Douglas County, strengthens our entire community,” said Kyle Huhtanen, CEO of Habitat for Humanity of NW Metro Atlanta.

Luis and Marisol, originally from New Jersey, now live in Douglasville, Georgia, where they are raising their three sons: Luis is a U.S. Army veteran who volunteers as a youth sports coach. Marisol is a full-time caregiver who was inspired by her mother’s health challenges to support her family full-time.

The family’s current housing presents several challenges, including water-damaged ceilings, creaky floors, rising rent, and limited space. Unsafe streets also prevent theirchildren from playing outside. Luis and Marisol are working with Habitat NWMA to build a safe, stable home for their family and look forward to paying forward the support they have received.

East Cobb TECH Tigers earn team award at 2026 FIRST LEGO

Submitted information and photos:

Six young students from East Cobb represented Georgia at the 2026 FIRST LEGO League Explore World Festival in Houston, Texas, and returned home with the Team Model Award. The festival was held April 29 through May 2 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston as part of the 2026 FIRST Championship.

The annual event brings together student robotics teams from around the world to celebrate STEM learning, engineering design and teamwork. The East Cobb team, known as the TECH Tigers, competed on May 1 and received the Team Model Award during the official awards ceremony on May 2.

The TECH Tigers were the only FIRST LEGO League Explore team from Georgia selected to participate in this year’s World Festival. The team includes six students, ages 8 to 9, and is coached by Coach Hong and Coach Liu.

Team members:

Jonathan Ying (3rd grade, Mt Bethel Elementary School)

Nathan Bai (East Side Elementary School 3rd grade)

Haozhong Deng Sope Creek Elementary School, 3rd grade）

Christina Wen （Sope Creek Elementary School, 3rd grade

Pierce Liu (East Side Elementary School, 3rd grade)

Noah Regan (International Charter School of Atlanta, 2nd grade)

This season’s FIRST LEGO League challenge focused on archaeology. For their project, the TECH Tigers created an original story about a group of explorers who discover dinosaur fossils and work together to excavate, protect and transport the remains. They also included modern technology and clean-energy ideas to make the fieldwork safer, smarter and more efficient. During the judging session, the TECH Tigers explained their story, demonstrated how their model worked, and described each team member’s role in the project. The Team Model Award recognized the students’ model design, presentation and teamwork.

“The students were competing in an international competition for the first time, and we never expected them to perform so well,” Coach Hong said. For the TECH Tigers, the trip to Houston was more than a competition. It gave the students a chance to present their ideas, meet teams from other countries and see how science, engineering and creativity can come together through LEGO robotics. After returning from Houston, the team hopes their experience will encourage more local children to explore robotics, engineering and hands-on STEM learning.
