Good job on making this video I grew up in fp I'm 27 and can anyone tell me about a water slide that was in fp in the 70s or 80s my mom said something about it I think I heard it was at the corner of Jonesboro rd an forest parkway ???
such a shame what happened to clayco in the past decade. Don't bother to call me racist, I don't care. When i was little and that was in the 80's and early 90's, my grandparents lived in riverdale "near the power lines" and it was like a semi rural great place..we shopped at richway and everyones parents worked for delta or eastern. Now they have vietnamese gangbangers shooting cops dead and home values are about where they were in the mid 70's in Bethsaida woods which was a ritzy area.
I am a 16 year old in Forest Park and I wish it looked as nice as in the video. The FPHS sport teams suck, except for the Soccer team and Girls Basketball team. Main street businesses never have customers. Forest Park changed for the WORSE.

Wow! I grew up in Forest Park and did my student teaching at FPHS. Wendy Ragsdale was a friend of mine at MHS in the '70s. It was a great town to grow up in, and I'm grateful for the memories...
That is one of the most AMAZING things I've ever seen in my life. Thank you for putting it up. I am from Forest Park and I felt like I was literally in a TIME WARP.
Forest Park used to be the "Jewel of the Southside'
lol forest park used to be full of white people .NOT NO MORE mexicans rule this city FOREST PARK GANGSTERS rob white people on daily basis. str8t southside atlanta banging 404 30297 FP HOOD
Damn, That makes me homesick. Had lots of great times in Forest Park. I wish it was still the same as it was in the 70's. Was through there not long ago hardly nothin' the same.
i agree! i miss the place..the way it use to be everytime i drive thru there...does anyone remember the guy that stood at his driveway every Christmas handing out candy canes? there would be cars lined up all the way back to town!
WOW.What memories of a great town that I grew up in.I remember going to both drive -ins with my parents,watch all the great movies over and over at the Jerry Lewis theatre,spending summers playing ball.Daddy Rags,a great man.I sure miss that old town.
