The Atlanta Retailers Association Foundation recently donated a fitness station to park in central DeKalb County.

The value of the gift at Dearborn Park is estimated at $40,000 and is the result of a partnership between the retailers and the county’s parks and recreation department. The equipment is already set up in the 7-acre park.
