Wonderful theatre! I’ve seen a few musicals here and I’m always impressed by the quality of the sets and performances. I love that they have live orchestras as well!

My first visit to Coolray Field in Buford was a truly memorable experience—one that blended community, celebration, and America’s favorite pastime in the most meaningful way. Our group from Mission Agape had the distinct honor of being invited to participate in a special event held in celebration of AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) Heritage Month this May. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this wasn’t just an ordinary ballgame—it was a heartfelt gathering of people from all walks of life, coming together to recognize and celebrate the rich cultural diversity that strengthens our communities. Before the game, we were warmly welcomed at the Duck Club inside the stadium—a VIP lounge offering a great view and cozy atmosphere. There, we enjoyed a beautifully arranged catered dinner, and had the opportunity to meet and mingle with local leaders, government officials, and political dignitaries, along with their families. These meaningful conversations were a reminder of the power of shared mission and cultural appreciation. After a stormy afternoon, the skies cleared just in time for the Gwinnett Stripers minor league baseball game. The fresh, post-rain air and vibrant sunset created the perfect backdrop for an evening at the ballpark. The energy in the stadium was lively but relaxed—a community of fans cheering, laughing, and simply enjoying the game together. The Stripers put on a great show, and even for those of us less familiar with minor league baseball, the excitement was contagious. The whole experience—from the warm hospitality to the inspiring conversations, from the baseball to the clear, post-storm sky—made it an evening I’ll remember fondly. Thank you to Coolray Field and the event organizers for making us feel so welcomed. It was a privilege to be part of this AAPI Heritage Month celebration, and I hope to return again soon—for another game, more great company, and the sense of unity that nights like this create.

One of my favourite places to walk; beautiful lake views and several trails to choose from. There are also a number of nice, secluded spots to sit on the edge of the lake. Water levels on the lakes seem low at the moment though so large sections were dried out.

This park was very beautiful and shaded by large trees. The environment was good and safe for women. It has a separate bike lane. Also you will find pavilions for picnics there.

Great fun with the kids. The jousting and sword fighting was really good and the Falcon made some close flying circles. The wife loved the dancing horse while I really thought the food was up to standard!
