The Friends for the East Cobb Park, an all-volunteer organization that supports activities at Cobb PARKS facility (3322 Roswell Road), is organizing a garden club.
An organizational meeting has been scheduled for next Saturday, June 3, at 10 a.m. at the gazebo overlooking the park, next to the maintenance shed, and accessible at the back of the upper parking lot.
They’re looking for volunteers to get the effort started with an eye toward a number of a variety of projects, including creating garden areas, pollinator gardens, trail beautification, community gardens, removing invasive plant species and other related activities.
The Friends for the East Cobb Park sponsors concerts, the Holiday Lights at East Cobb Park celebration and purchases playground equipment. The group also held a cleanup day at the park recently along the banks of Sewell Mill Creek.
“We need people,” Friends president Kurt von Borries said in reference to the garden club. “The goal is to beautify the park even more than it already is.”
