CASCADE SPRINGS NATURE PRESERVE
Commissioner’s Corner- summer 2019
Welcome to the City of Atlanta Department of Parks and Recreation’s fall 2019 catalog. The seasonal catalog is a way for us to share the enriching programs and activities we offer, and provide updates on work relating to parks and facilities to better serve our communities.
Our generational projects including the Grant Park Gateway Project and the West Side Park have seen significant progress. The Grant Park Gateway Project is nearing completion with an anticipated date of completion in November 2019. Meanwhile, the initial phase of construction and updating the master plan for the Westside Park is forging ahead. For information on past and upcoming meetings please visit www.parkatbellwoodquarry.com.
We're also excited about the new playgrounds at Isabel Gates Webster Park, Mozley Park, Collier Park, Pittman Park, Center Hill Park, South Atlanta Park, West Manor Park, Anderson Park, and John A. White Park.
The fall season also means back-to-school. Our afterschool program is open for registration and we look forward to another successful school year. Be sure to log on to atlantaga.gov/iPARCS to register for any of our fall programming. The end of summer also brought with it the end of the ATL Parks and Rec Camp Best Friends. This year marked the 38th year of Camp Best Friends, which served close to 4,000 City of Atlanta youth. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of the participants, staff, and parents for a great summer. Let’s do it again next summer!
Our parks and recreation comprehensive plan will resume community engagement meetings in the upcoming months. With community input, this plan will lay out a compelling ten-year vision, goals, and objectives to elevate Atlanta’s parks and recreation system into a world-class system. Meeting information will be provided as we work to confirm dates and locations.
We all know that recreation and parks are invaluable in our communities, and we will continue working to provide exceptional parks, facilities, and programs.
It’s a great day to be in parks and recreation!
Best regards,
John Dargle, Jr. Commissioner, City of Atlanta Department of Parks and Recreation
