125th Birthday Party for Grant Park
Saturday, May 17th, 10 am - 1:30 pm
On May 17, 1883, L.P. Grant deeded nearly 100 acres of land to the City of Atlanta, creating the first City Park. Because the Park is central to our neighborhood's identity, GPNA is proud to host the 125th birthday. Festivities kick off with a parade at 10:00 am and ends with free birthday cake and ice cream at 1:00. Music, speeches, food, games and lots of other great activities and fun!

Grant Park Pool: Donate to Create More Fun for Kids
Our community has a great opportunity to get some new fun and family-friendly features at Grant Park Pool - but we can't do it without your help. The City of Atlanta has agreed to match, at a rate of 3-to-1, funds raised by Friends of Grant Park Pool to turn the existing 3 ½-foot deep lesson pool into a zero-entry pool (that is, one that gradually becomes deeper) and add a new, safe, and shaded spray-play area. The hope is to unveil these new features when the pool reopens on Memorial Day, so please make your tax-deductible donation today! For more info about the pool and to make a donation, visit www.grantparkpool.org

Beltine Commentary
Did you know: Keeping a level grade is not required for the beltline rail. So the rail can slope down gradually from Boulevard to the park space at Cherokee, thereby opening access to 21 acres of new city park. No tunnels to access the new park, no bridges, easy access.
