The Lake Lanier Olympic Venue fell into some disrepair in recent years, but the nonprofit Gainesville-Hall ’96 Foundation is working to revive the legacy of the venue that hosted kayaking and rowing events during the 1996 Atlanta Summer Games. The nonprofit has asked the city of Gainesville to chip in $150,000 for the 2015 fiscal year to support this mission, the same amount it received last year. It will also request the same amount from Hall County government.
