When Paul Tatum first received his Senior Club membership card for the Evergreen Club in 1983, he was not aware of the impact his involvement would have on the club and everyone associated with the program.
During his twenty-seven years with Senior Recreation Clubs, Tatum played an active role in forming the Recreation Club Council long before a Gwinnett County Parks & Recreation department existed. At that time, the county’s young parks were divided into districts.
Tatum was an active Evergreen Club member for 5 years before the club expanded to form the Drifters Club at Mt. Park Depot building. He served as Vice President then held a 12-year tenure as President of the Drifters Club.
Through the years, Tatum has been a dedicated Senior Recreation Club member, never missing a Holiday or Awards Luncheon.
At ninety-seven years old, Paul Tatum has made many friends through his involvement in the active senior recreation clubs. He is a model volunteer and is very supportive of Gwinnett County Parks & Recreation’s active senior recreation clubs.
