The pavilion was designed by Lauren Trotter\, an East Atlanta resident whose thoughtful design reflects the spirit and creativity of the neighborhood. \nCome walk with us\, meet neighbors\, hear the story behind the pavilion\, and enjoy a refreshing morning in one of East Atlanta’s beloved parks. Light refreshments will be provided (while supplies last) by Capital B News\, who will also be joining us. We can’t wait to see you there! \nNOTE: We’ll meet outside of the East Atlanta Kids Club. There is a parking lot with limited spots\, along with plenty of street parking. \n\nEnvironmental Education Day is in January\, let’s use this walk as a way to get started! Try using apps like iNaturalist or Merlin Bird ID to turn an ordinary walk into a discovery adventure\, identify plants\, insects\, and birds\, contribute to community science\, and learn how wildlife is using urban green spaces in real time.
