On Friday May 6th Cobb County PARKS, in conjunction with The Home Depot, hosted a giving back event at the Floyd Road Trail Head Bike Depot. More than 25 volunteers from the Home Depot Delivery Operations Team, along with Cobb PARKS staff, beautified an area around Catalyst Sports Adaptive Bike storage unit. The Adaptive Bike storage unit houses bikes for persons who could not ride a traditional bike on the trail. This project not only beautified the area but helped to ease the access around the container and gave PARKS an area to put picnic tables in the future. Volunteers placed decorative granite rock as a border around a slate path that surrounds the storage unit. Azaleas and knockout roses were also planted around the site. Cobb County PARKS would like to thank Home Depot for being so generous with their time, as well as supplying plants for the event. We look forward to more projects like this in the future. A great partnership with a great organization.
