Learn the benefits of nutrition at Robeks June 20

Better Together's series aimed at exposing residents to Milton's businesses

MILTON, Ga., April 14, 2014 - Feeling sluggish? Weighed down? Maybe better nutrition - like healthy real fruit smoothies, freshly squeezed vegetable juices or wheatgrass -- is just what the doctor ordered.

If this sounds exciting, make sure you're at Milton's Robeks Juice Friday, June 20 when Better Together, the city's citizen volunteer committee, holds the second in its series of business connection events.

This free event will take place from 4 to 7 p.m. at Robeks Juice's Milton location, 5250 Windward Parkway, Suite 113 (click here for directions). The entire community is invited, said Wayne Boston, community builder for the City of Milton.

"Our first event was an overwhelming success," he said. "We're looking forward to meeting residents interested in a healthy and active lifestyle."

At this second business connection event, Robeks Juice's experts will give residents the inside scoop on healthy nutrition and the benefits of eating well. Samples will be available for tasting.

Additionally, the first 20 attendees will receive a $10 gift card. There will be drawings every hour for a free smoothie each day for a month, and the first 50 people who attend will receive a mug or similar Robeks Juice gift.

Businesses in Milton are encouraged to contact Boston at 678-242-2512 or wayne.boston@cityofmiltonga.us if they would be willing to host an event in order to introduce their particular product or service to our residents. Better Together will then work with the business to plan an event that will be educational, productive and enjoyable to all.

Better Together is a volunteer organization of Milton residents looking for unique and fun ways to connect with neighbors.
