Southern LINC is also celebrating its growth by participating in the All-Star Ball program in Atlanta. Southern LINC donated the use of eight handsets and service to program coordinators in return for a giant All-Star Baseball to decorate. Multiple design ideas, based on the theme of growth, were solicited from Southern LINC employees and submitted to an artist from the Atlanta College of Art. Employees who submitted ideas were eligible for a drawing to attend All-Star Game festivities and enjoy a meal at Gorden Biersch Brewery Restaurant in Midtown Atlanta. The artist then combined these ideas with his own vision and the result was translated into a six-foot baseball, which is currently on display in Peachtree Center.
