Beginner classes are offered every Monday near I-85 and Clairmont Road from 7:00-8:30 p.m. (Briarcliff Woods Beach Clubhouse, 1830 Morris Landers Drive 30345). Cost is $7 per session.

Also on our agenda, Kaleb Solberg from Atlanta PRIDE will make a short presentation and answer questions about upcoming PRIDE activities and volunteer opportunities. Kaleb Solberg is a passionate advocate for housing justice, LGBTQ+ rights, and youth empowerment. As Community Engagement Coordinator at Atlanta Pride, Kaleb is excited to strengthen community partnerships and amplify diverse voices across Atlanta.
