The Murphey Candler Park Conversancy (MCPC) was formed by a group of concerned and like-minded neighbors, working with local government and the surrounding community, to help preserve and improve Murphey Candler Park. MCPC is an all-volunteer organization, which means that your financial support goes directly toward helping us improve the Park.
Murphey Candler Park is a 135-acre multi-use park located at 1551 West Nancy Creek Drive in northern DeKalb County and is the largest park in the city of Brookhaven. The park is currently operated by the City of Brookhaven Parks and Recreation Department. Park amenities include multi-use fields, tennis courts, a swimming pool, a playground, picnic areas, a lake, and trails. Youth sports are offered through baseball, softballand football programs that operate through the park. The lake is also home to Canada Geese, Mallards, other ducks and beavers.
Playground Fundraising Campaign The MCPC has launched a Playground Fundraising Campaign. We are partnering with the City of Brookhaven to bring a new playground for kids of all ages and abilities. The playground will be located on the west side of the lake between the Historic Caretaker's Home and the Pool. Our goal is to raise $100,000. Thanks to a generous $75,000 grant from Resurgens Charitable Foundation, we are well on our way to achieving our goal.
