In 2000, the first year of Lemonade Days, the DPT organized a home tour. Homes damaged in the 1998 tornado were featured. This rare Lemonade Days booklet contains before/after photos of the homes included in the tour.

Year four (4) is at Brook Run, but on a much smaller scale. DeKalb County still controls the parks at this time, not the City of Dunwoody. The Brook Run theater plays host to concerts over the weekend. After years of neglect by DeKalb County and the City of Dunwoody (the theater was in bad shape when Dunwoody won a court battle taking control of the parks, and the city council voted to not fund improvements for the theater. It's gone, and so is its history. It was replaced with a few bags of grass seed and some saplings.), the theater was demolished in 2016. The whereabouts of the theater's stained glass windows is a mystery. Last we heard the windows were placed in crates and hauled to an unknown storage location. Below is a rough draft letter to then Commissioner Elaine Boyer, requesting use of Brook Run.  |
