The City's annual event honors Dr. King's legacy through a keynote address, performances, art and a City proclamation. Every year a new theme is selected, showcasing how his work still impacts our nation and community, and what we can do continue his efforts in our current era.
This year's theme is "Is his Dream, your Dream too?" presented by panel of speakers. Performances from local groups, schools and community organizations are a prominent feature of the Tribute event. Stay after the event for a brief reception and an opportunity to meet and talk to the performers.

Future Park at the End of Odessa Road Community Meeting
Monday, January 13, 2020 at 7:00 p.m. Youth and Family Services Building
4912 Nantucket Road - In the Recreation Room
The City of College Park is in the process of planning for a new play area in the vacant parcel at the end of Odessa Road. There is neighborhood interest to create a park for children to play at that is close to their home, so they do not have to cross busy Rhode Island Avenue. The area bordering the properties on 52nd Avenue and Palco Place was identified as a suitable location for this park.
This community meeting will provide more information about the project and provide an opportunity for residents to ask questions and make suggestions related to the proposal.
