Candler Park Conservancy

Happy unofficial start of summer. Candler Park’s Pool will open Saturday, May 30. The ADA improvements for access to the restroom and to the pool will be complete and ready for opening day. Link to all city pool info has been added to our bio. ☀️

Our sign got another fresh coat of paint — thank you to Troop 21669: Annabelle, Hawkins, Sophie, and Georgia! 🎨💚 (Parents have given permission for the Conservancy to share this photo.)

We love seeing local groups help care for our community spaces. If your group is interested in volunteering to paint, send us a DM!

We have a HEAPING pile of mulch free for the taking. Located at the east entrance where Terrace meets Marlbrook (right by hole 5). Please take as much as you need for your own projects.

The Park had an incredible March! Thanks to the student groups from , , and for lending a hand and planting 85 trees over two weekends. We were proud to put in 10 different native species such as redbuds, tulip poplar, oaks, and sweetbay magnolia.

Spring has sprung here at the park! We’re in the middle of back to back projects 🌳🌱. Help plant trees and other native species 3/28 to help keep our park healthy and thriving. You still have time to sign up via the link in our bio.
Another fun event happening at the park this weekend is the Egg Hunt 🐣on 3/29 from 3-5 put on by our friends at CPNO!

Last Saturday, over 30 friends, neighbors, and visitors came out to volunteer for Love Your Park Month. We removed invasive species, repainted the tennis wall, and re-purposed the old Candler Park sign for our newly redone entrance at the corner of Terrace and Marlbrook.

Thanks to everyone who joined; especially SCAD SERVE and Emory Weightlifting Club and all of their members who participated.

Hi everyone,

With the lightning this morning we need to postpone the Love Your Park event. We're rescheduling the event to next Saturday, February 28th, from 10am-12pm.

If you were signed up previously, hopefully you can still make it but we totally understand if you have other things planned. If you didn't sign up but this new time works for you, you now have an extra week to sign up here:

Opportunities to volunteer Instantly see availabilities and sign up today!

If you haven’t been around back lately, you may not know that the entrance at Marlbrook/Terrace is getting a facelift. The sidewalk is being extended up Marlbrook to connect with the existing sidewalk, there are 2 new ADA ramps, and we’ll have some new plantings going in this spring.

Help us plant trees in Candler Park to help sustain our urban forest. On March 28th from 9a-12p we’re trying to plant over 100 native trees. For more details or to sign up check out the link in our bio 🌳
