Carrollton has always been more than just a place we live, it is a community rich in history and personal connections. That is what drew us from Atlanta many years ago and it also influenced our own children to move back “home” to start their own families. We have always believed being healthy and active are important and the development of the Greenbelt has enabled the community we love to do that together.
