2623 Rex Avenue, S. W.

Dear Mr. Gamel:

Thank you for your letter concerning recreation facilities in
Atlanta. When a citizen takes the time to write a letter of this
nature, you may be sure that it is read with sincere interest, and
any suggestions made are given full consideration.

Your comment on gymnasium facilities is pertinent. Our goal
as the Parks and Recreation Department of the City of Atlanta is to
provide well-developed, accessible parks and a balanced, adequate
recreation program. To do this we should reach all ages--~- pre school,
elementary school, teenagers, adults and senior citizens. Our
facilities should be available six or seven days a week, during the
day and evenings. However, funds for these goals have been diverted
for other equally important programs. It is unfortunate but true that
Atlanta does not have the parks system and recreation program it
needs and deserves.

You are correct in stating that few adults in Atlanta make use
of the existing recreation facilities. This is possibly due to the fact
that in most instances knowledge of the basic recreation programs
never reaches the public.

It is not within my power to speak for other agencies such as
the School Department and the YMCA, but you may rest assured that
we in the Parks and Recreation Department are making a definite,
feasible effort to improve existing conditions of our parks and
recreation facilities. Enclosed you will find our projection of
improvements, first steps of which have already been initiated with
completion date set for 1983, Also you will find an even more
tangible report of what we plan to do this summer in our expanded
Summer Recreation Program. As these reports show, we are trying
to correct the very problems you have outlined in your letter.
May I suggest a few parks in your area and some activities in
which you might be interested. West Manor Park located on Sewell
Road, S. W. has outdoor and indoor sports activities for adults
Monday through Friday nights. Ben Hill Center, located on Old
Fairburn Road, S. W., has adult basketball on Wednesday nights,
and skilled and unskilled games for adults on Monday and Thursday
nights. At Adamevilie Center, 3404 DelMar Lane, 5. W., a program
of men's athletics is conducted from 7:00-9:00 p.m. each Wednesday.

I hope that you might be able to avail yourself of these adult
athletic activities offered. For further information on activities
offered in your area, you might contact Mr. Fred Morgan at
758-8739. Myr. Morgan is the Area Recreation Supervisor for
the Southwest section of Atlanta, and he will be happy to talk with
you about Recreation Programs in your area.

Once again, thank you for your interest in the City of Atlanta
Recreation Department.

Very truly yours,

Virginia Carmichael
Director of Recreation

Mayor Mr. Ivan Allen Jr.
City Hall,
Atlenta, (Fulton Co.) Ga.
Dear Sir:

I heard over radio a few days ago about so mucn
crime is committed here and it is much over tne country.

I believe you said many small town hogrs come to Ga.'s
largest cities and most of all Atlanta.

Also you spoke of sex perverts coming to Piedmont Park.
That last is not new to me. I heard of it 14 years ago. Seen
some evidence of it.

Last Thursday I went to Piedmont park from a place

a few blocks away and while walking a young , fellow about
20 passed me carrying a towel@ and 1 though he must
intend going i n swmiing when surely the pg1l is not open

ntil a few weeks later. I was going to see the annual art
ext. I am 71 and dont walk fast and after reaching the
perk @ rested awhile when walking down by the lake I met

the boy coming back and talzed to him. He said he and two
other boys about his age went in swimming in part of the lake
which is agoeinst the law to swim in any time and the 3
went in entirely naked and the other 2 were still in. However
I think they got out and may have been two long haird hippies
orlLookea like it but were dressed.

A micdled aged friend of mine told me today he went with
his young niece and her little son Sunday and they saw e
youbng men naked. One got ina _ swin and he may have been
Partly covered with his twwell.
it was shocking ofcourse they had been swimming in the
lake. Two lawws broken. Swimmi in lake and being naked,
I vought a Great Speakled Bird mag. from a handsome
young fellow with long hair and he told me Atlanta now had
housey of entirely nude parties ofcourse for both sexes.
Did ‘not say @ Where they are.
Chenging the subject my dear father was buried in a relative.
unsved pert.of Holloway cen etery but crime out there is so much
thet I am araid to visit his grave and so is sister and family
who have a car. Afraid of beingmurdered any time. You know laww
KP Cl ate thing but guess lots cannot bescontrolled. 1 hate it
about my father though.
Iam another Ivan and have been joked and even called
Ivan Allen in Sunday school. thoughtlessly, I never saw you
but in pictures but I ssw and heard your father speaking to elderly
ce itizvens at the 5. Eastern Fair a few years ago.

Yours truly, t a = Y, Ye

- THE HONORASLE IVAN ALLEN

MAYOR OF ATLANTA, GEORGIA

My dear Mr. Mayor:

Sometimes I walk around the lake in
Piedmont Park. It is a beautiful park,- if you look
heavenward and see all the gorgeous trees. But if you
look on the ground or at the edges of the lake, the
aspect is revolting. I wish you had taken a walk
around the lake yesterday as I did. “America the Beau-
tiful": is that a laugh!

But it could be beautiful, Mr. Mayor, just as our
government reservations and many foreign countries are.
The difference hinges on one little word: DISCIPLINE.

For goodness sake get our park policemen trained to
catch the pigs in the act of desecrating our recreation
areas and see that some worth-remembering stiff fines
are meted out. If there is any resistance let the
police know they'll be backed up if someone is hurt.

Yours for at least a few spots in town which are
unpolluted by the characters that use them.

Miss Grace Kelley
1015 Washita Avenue, N.E.
Atlanta, Georgia

SUBJECT: Southeast Corner of Intersection of North
Highland, N.E. and Washita Avenue, N.E.

Dear Mies Kelley:

Thank you very much for your letter of June 6, 1969,
which has just been received.

We are working under virtually emergency conditions
attempting to meet the critical recreation needs for
the summer here in Atlanta. Every available man

and every piece of equipment is well scheduled several
weeks in advance and the only way I wonldtbenable to
beautify the southeast corner of the above intersection
would be to divert our efforts from the disadvantaged
areas of the City. This is to in no way to suggest
that I don't look with favor upon your request. My
maintenance superintendent however, is quite concerned
as to whether or not once we beautify this particular
location if we will be called upon to renovate all

the vacant properties which are pending development

as part of the Stone Mountain Freeway. Our cwews are
very limited and we must assign priorities to every
project undertaken.

Iam sorry to have to be so negative about this matter
and it is personally very flustering to me that we

can not immediately accomdate you since we do have a
beautification program underway,

Sincerely,

cack C. Delius

Parks and Recreation

I talked with Mr. Fred Shepherd, the: City Architect,
on July 2. Mr. Shepherd stated that he was extremely
involved with the Model Cities program at the present
time and for me to contact him on Monday, July 14
and he would make every effort to go out to said

and possibly some renovations.

I have been in constant contact with Mr. Albert
Tonsill,.the Center Director, and we, of course,
are vitally interested in securing the center for

At the present time, Mr. Tonsill and I believe’
that the remodeling and repairs will not amount

that it is difficult to estimate costs at the present
going rate.

At such time as I am able to have Mr. Shepherd ‘
