Atlanta Hawks, College Park Skyhawks and State Farm unveiled a newly renovated, multi-functional Good Neighbor Club at the College Park Auditorium in College Park, Ga. This Good Neighbor Club features a new gym and auditorium and includes a co-branded Hawks, State Farm and College Park Skyhawks wall, an LED scoreboard, new stage curtains, retractable basketball hoops and more. Joining the Atlanta Hawks Foundation and State Farm in this effort was the City of College Park’s Recreation and Cultural Arts Department.
“We are proud to partner with State Farm and the College Park Skyhawks to unveil our ninth Good Neighbor Club in College Park,” said Vice President of Community Impact and Basketball Programs for the Atlanta Hawks and State Farm Arena Jon Babul.
Hawks players and Skyhawks alum Bruno Fernando and Jalen Johnson were joined by Hawks alum Charlie Criss (1977-81 and 1984-85) to interact with the attendees.
Attendees also enjoyed giveaways from Hawks and Skyhawks entertainment including Harry the Hawk, Colli Hawk, the ATL Dancers and the College Park Southside Crew.
Refreshments and ice cream was served by MOKIPOPS, an all-natural popsicle company started by three kid siblings in 2016.
The College Park Auditorium was selected as the location for the ninth Good Neighbor Club due to its strong ties to the College Park community and the inclusion of the College Park Skyhawks as part of the unveiling.
“Being a ‘good neighbor’ is about supporting one another and investing in our communities,” said Dan Krause, State Farm Senior Vice President.
