14 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 4, ISSUE 8 PREFERRED VENDOR/PARTNER n Riverside EpiCenter www.RiversideEpiCenter.com The Riverside EpiCenter was opened in 2014 by Bishop Dale C. Bronner and Word of Faith Family Worship Cathedral. The bishop presented the idea when the church discussed creating something transformational in the community. Pronounced Epee-center, the venue’s name was inspired by a geologic event, “where an earthquake happens: we’re at the center of a lot of rumbling, a lot of diversity,” Boyd said. But he laughed, admitting that people prefer to pronounce it another way: EPIC-center. “At first, we corrected people. But after a while, we just embraced it. If you look up the word, ‘EPIC,’ you’ll notice that it is defined as, ‘impressively grand.’ When you come into the facility, everything about it is ‘impressively grand.’ The fact that a church did this is even more impressive. It really is a fitting name. We just ran with it.” n Austell Gas System austellgas.com Austell Natural Gas System is a utility company that is a component of the City of Austell and serves residential, commercial, and industrial customers in portions of Cobb and Douglas Counties.
