About the Tim D. Lee Senior Center
The Tim D. Lee Senior Center is named after the late Board of Commissioners Chairman who brought Truist Park and the Atlanta Braves to Cobb County. It was formerly the East Cobb Senior Center. Lee died in September of 2019, and the Cobb Board of Commissioners voted to rename the center in honor of Lee at the December 16 meeting of that year.
