Mr. Dan E. Sweat, Jr.

Director of Governmental Liaison
City Hall

City of Atlanta

Atlanta, Georgia 30303

Dear Dan:

Reference is made to your letter of April 5 in which you
requested information in certain areas of the City. I

am requesting Mr. Harold Barrett, Associate Administrator

for Operations, to furnish you this information as he is
keenly aware of the things which are going on in these areas.

Incidentally, I think you should know that we are making
three efforts to come up with local recreational programs
in each of our twelve target areas this summer.

First, we are trying to get each of the Neighborhood Ser-
vice Centers to develop a program within the limits of
their ability, and at the same time we are calling upon
all local groups to assist.

Second, Mr. Allison is requesting assistance from a number
of both public and private agencies at the overall City
level.

Third, the Chairman of our Board plans to discuss this.
matter with Sargent Shriver with the hope that funds can
be found to at least give us a program equivalent to last
summer's program.
Mr. Dan E. Sweat, Jr. -2- April 6, 1967

We will keep you posted and encourage you to keep us
advised also. Best of luck.

Sincerely yours,
