On the second Thursday of every month at 7:30am, Park Pride brings together community leaders and park advocates from throughout Atlanta for education, networking and strategy. Representatives from dozens of Friends of the Park Groups, park conservancies and the parks department visit a different park to learn more about the community efforts in that park, discuss current park and greenspace issues and support each other in efforts to improve our parks and our park system.

This month, we’ll be at the shared offices of the South Fork Conservancy and the Olmsted Linear Park Alliance. The best way to access the office is through the parking lot of the Fernbank Museum. The building is located in the back of the parking lot with the building facing Ponce De Leon. Look for the Park Pride sign to ensure you’re in the right place!
