Why Camp Near East Point?
Things to Do Near East Point, Georgia
East Point brings a genuine Olympic-history curiosity: Sumner Park is home to the Dick Lane Velodrome, one of the only cycling tracks of its kind in the country and a training facility for the 1996 Atlanta Games. Sykes Park adds tennis courts, wooded trails, and a pump track for mountain bikers, while Georgia Sports Park's six professional-quality soccer fields spread across 100 acres of green space. Shopping leans practical here — Camp Creek Marketplace is the largest retail district in the ATL Airport area — and the East Point Farmers Market and Arts and Cultural Center give visitors a more local, community-driven side of the city to explore.
