Athletics & Recreation Coalition (LPARC)

The Legacy Park Athletics and Recreation Coalition (LPARC) is a working committee of community stakeholders that includes parents of children attending City Schools of Decatur, City Schools of Decatur athletic coaches, local business owners, volunteers, and other like-minded citizens who have a personal interest in the future development of a track and field facility at Legacy Park.

The Coalition is working collaboratively with Legacy Decatur, the City of Decatur, and City Schools of Decatur to create active living opportunities for people of all ages, generations and abilities, and is seeking to engage public and private partnerships to ensure the long-term success and sustainability of the entire park for generations to come.

Thus far, the Coalition has launched an exploratory facility design process, including the development of a draft program with input from the City of Decatur and the CSD Athletic Department. These efforts will become the basis for further discussions and more formalized schematics to be prepared by the City and the school system, ensuring limited impacts on surrounding natural assets and trails and maximized integration with existing facilities.
