Cobb County Parks and Recreation

Cobb County Parks and Recreation

Cobb County Parks and Rec is one of our most valued partners. Each year, volunteers from CCPR come out to our races and provide invaluable support.

Police and Fire Explorers — students at local high schools who  receive training from the CC Public Safety Training Program — help direct our marathoners and half-marathoners, making sure our races run smoothly while they gain valuable experience. These young people develop character and work ethic while doing a job they can be proud of as Police or Fire Explorers.

We also use our charity spots and other donations to help support these programs, along with other educational programs in Cobb County. These programs are brought to high schools in the area, and they also give Boy and Girl Scout troops the opportunity to earn badges and complete assignments.
