Known as "The Home of the Tigers," the park features one of a handful of covered outdoor basketball courts in the city -- ideal for play on rainy days. In addition to the basketball court, the park features a pavilion, playground, two tennis courts and three ball fields.
The recreation center houses a gymnasium, kitchen, game room, dance studio, weight room, computer lab, conference rooms and locker rooms. The site offers classes and activities for all ages, including dance, bridge, computer basics and karate (see recent flyer PDF posted on this page).
Ben Hill is maintained by the city's Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs. For park reservations, please call 404-546-6757. As with all city parks, Ben Hill is governed by the city's Office of Parks official Park Use Rules and Guidelines.
