High-tech golf driving range coming to Cherokee County

In the summer of 2027, Cherokee County golfers will be able to refine their skills at a high-tech practice range and golf academy that’s scheduled to open in Woodstock by late July. RangeWorks, located at 1465 Woodstock Parkway, is under construction now on a 3.5-acre lot adjacent to The Outlet Shoppes of Atlanta complex. Founder and owner George Mattingly says RangeWorks will combine the best aspects of outdoor golf ranges where shots are hit into open fields and indoor facilities where golfers hit balls directly into screens that use technology to provide feedback on the distance, direction and quality of shots. “We want to be in between the traditional range and the screen experience where the ball travels only about 10 feet before hitting a screen,” Mattingly said. “I want my patrons to have more ball flight and more of an organic experience than just hitting the screen.” A golfer practicing from one of RangeWorks’ 32 practice bays will see his or her shots travel about 80 yards before making contact with a screen that will send instant feedback on the shot’s performance to a screen at the practice bay. “So you experience the flight of the ball, and then

Woodstock’s Noonday Creek Trail extension to open Saturday

The Noonday Creek Trail Extension linking Woodstock to Cobb County will officially open to the public on Saturday, the city of Woodstock announced. The new trail segment extends Woodstock's existing Noonday Creek Trail south by 1.5 miles, connecting the trailhead near the Woodstock Arts Event Green to Noonday Park in Cobb County. Woodstock and Cherokee County’s trail system is now connected to the one in Cobb County, where officials are planning to eventually connect the Noonday Creek Trail to the Silver Comet Trail, one of the largest paved trails in the United States. "This project has been nearly a decade in the making, and we're thrilled to celebrate its completion," Mayor Michael Caldwell said in a statement. "The Noonday Creek Trail Extension is much more than a recreational amenity. It strengthens regional connectivity, expands transportation options, and creates new opportunities for residents and visitors to experience the natural beauty of our community and beyond." Woodstock officials broke ground on the project in December 2023 with representatives from Cherokee County, Cobb County, the Atlanta Regional Commission, and the Georgia Department of Transportation. Part of the trail connection runs under Highway 92. The project received funding support from the Georgia Department of

Cheeseburger slider restaurant opens in Acworth

A new cheeseburger slider restaurant opened its doors in Acworth Wednesday. Smalls Sliders opened its new location located at 3240 North Cobb Parkway. It is the slider restaurant’s third location in Georgia and second in Cobb County, following the one in Marietta located at 2355 Windy Hill Road. Smalls serves fresh, cooked-to-order cheeseburger sliders along with waffle fries, shakes, queso dip and its house sauce. It offers walk-up ordering windows and drive-thru service rather than a traditional indoor area. The restaurant has a distinct modular design built from orange shipping containers. “We’ve seen firsthand the enthusiasm that Smalls Sliders brings to the communities it serves, and we’re proud to continue growing the brand’s presence in Georgia,” franchisee Rocky Moore said. “Building on the momentum of our Marietta location, we see tremendous opportunity to introduce even more guests to the Smalls experience. "We look forward to becoming part of the Acworth community, creating local jobs and serving up the fresh, cooked-to-order sliders that have made this brand a fan favorite.”

Archer survives tough region for state playoff trip

When the Class AAAAAAA high school brackets were finalized last weekend, Archer and North Cobb drew a familiar opponent in the first round. The two teams played each other the previous two years in the regular season, so Friday’s state playoff matchup makes it three straight seasons. North Cobb won both previous meetings, 28-14 at home in 2025 and 49-21 at Archer in 2024. Archer reached the postseason while navigating an incredibly tough schedule that included No. 3 overall seed Carrollton before a region slate that featured No. 2 Newton, No. 12 Grayson and No. 19 South Gwinnett. The Tigers were off last week after a 49-23 loss at Newton in Game 10. After losing record-breaking Jordan Do to graduation off last season’s team, Archer still leans heavily on its quarterback, Jamal Ambler. The junior has 1,797 passing yards and 17 TDs, along with 241 rushing yards and three TDs. His top targets are Robbie Dunn Jr. (65 catches, 722 yards, nine TDs), Avery Booth (34-433-3), Jayden Davis (24-312-3) and Gary Isaac (23-175-4). Archer’s defensive playmakers include Joshua Booker (68 tackles, three for losses, five caused fumbles), Kevin Gwibuka (65 tackles, three for losses, four interceptions, two caused fumbles, one
