If you haven’t checked out our revamped calendar listings, please check them out now! We’d love to share your events with the community too—see the instructions at the bottom of this post.
This weekend the key activities include Sprayberr High School’s Black vs. Gold football scrimmage, the first three of six presentations of “Black Comedy” by CenterStage North at The Art Place, and the 11th running of the Lutzie 43 Road Race.
That takes place Saturday morning at Lassiter High School (2601 Shallowford Road), and is run in the memory of former Trojan and Auburn University football standout Philip Lutzenkirchen.
After he was killed in a car crash in 2014, his family set up a foundation to inspire people to make better decisions as drivers and friends, using Philip’s life and legacy to inspire change.”
The Lutzie 43 Foundation exists to reduce the number of distracted, impaired and unsafe driving incidents, ultimately diminishing the number of deaths caused by poor decisions behind the wheel.
The event, which features a 5K race around the school grounds, steps off from Frank Fillman Stadium with a short kids’ run.
The cost is $30-$43 and you can register onsite or at this link. All proceeds benefit the Lutzie 43 Foundation.
