Atlanta BeltLine URBAN ADVENTURE DREAM COMING TRUE CHECK IT OUT (Part 2 of 3)
In the first part, we learned that The Atlanta BeltLine runs through 45 of Atlanta's intown neighborhoods. As it continues around the City, the Atlanta BeltLine passes through areas that are developed at a high level and others whose development could use a boost. The Atlanta BeltLine is composed of two sections: The Atlanta BeltLine, Inc. and The Atlanta BeltLine Partnership. Each has a separate mission to accomplish. ABI executes and implements the project and ABLP handles fundraising and community issues.
Almost five years ago, The City of Atlanta purchased 137 acres of land to create the future greenspace and reservoir. Eventually, connected to Maddox Park, the new Westside Park will encompass approximately 300 acres and include a new reservoir for the Atlanta area. Westside Park will be larger than Piedmont Park (185 acres) and Grant Park (131 acres) when finished.
The old quarry, in use for over 100 years, and most recently for shooting movies, will be cleaned, prepared and readied to accommodate 1.9 billion gallons of drinking water! The current reservoir is estimated to be an eight day supply and the new one would be 32 days supply of water. WOW!
The Westside Park will provide recreational areas for Atlanta and Fulton County residents and visitors when completed. The central motif for the Atlanta BeltLine Urban Adventure Dream Coming True is the integration of new development along the BeltLine. Connections along the corridor being revamped to serve as the BeltLine is key to its success.
From a City of Atlanta Press release on June 30, 2006:
"To be implemented by the Atlanta Development Authority, the BeltLine is one of the most comprehensive economic development efforts undertaken in the City’s history. The initiative, which involves 22 miles of legacy railroad right-of-way that passes through 45 intown Atlanta neighborhoods, seeks to transform transit, grow greenspace with parks and trails, and ensure livable communities and an attractive business climate in the City over the next quarter century. Economic development, affordable workforce housing, pedestrian mobility, historic preservation, environmental remediation and public art are among the BeltLine’s many visionary components."

At 2:00 p.m. on May 6, golfers will be sent out via shotgun start. Both courses will have “hole-in-one” prizes as well as “closest to the pin” and “longest drive” contests. Beverages carts will patrol the grounds to ensure thirsty golfers are satiated. "Once golfers finish, the day is by no means over. We will have more refreshments to accompany dinner at the club facilities. During dinner, we will give awards to the top three scoring foursomes. A 50/50 raffle will be available, as will items at our silent auction. "Cost per golfer is $150. The first three years of the Klassic were a huge success, and we look to build on that as we continue our tradition of honoring Erik. Please register now to join us on May 6, 2011."

Former Hospital Corpsman (SEAL) 1st Class Marcus Luttrell, who was also part of the ground element, was critically wounded during the attack and the only member of his team to survive the battle. Luttrell evaded capture and was later discovered and protected by a tribe of local Pashtun villagers until his rescue by U.S. forces four days later. Aboard the helicopter were: Chief Fire Controlman (SEAL) Jacques Fontan; Staff Sgt. Shamus O. Goare; Army Chief Warrant Officer Corey J.
