From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. May 31, Mellow Mushroom at 11770 Haynes Bridge in Alpharetta, is throwing a Free Ultimate Family Celebration. That's right. Come meet an Atlanta Falcons player, Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders, and Freddie the Falcon. To amp up the fun, you and the kids can enjoy a Field Goal kick game, photo booth, live DJ, airbrush tattoos, balloon twister, bounce houses, prizes, great food, a raffle, and much more. And give to a good cause. All of the proceeds from the raffle items will benefit Bert's Big Adventure.
