To commemorate the upcoming 50th anniversary of New Echota as a State Historic Site, talented and dedicated members of FONE have designed commemorative calendars, posters and tee shirts, and as the community celebrates on Saturday, May 12, 2012, FONE will provide a variety of services for visitors – everything from parking cars, historic building interpretation, and manning the visitor center, to providing funding for publicity, historic demonstrators, musicians, and Cherokee artists.
Spring is here and our winged friends and blooming beauties are showing their colors. Georgia State parks and historic sites have some of the greatest hiking trails and wildlife refuges in the state. With so many native plants and wildlife, Georgia's state parks always bring lots of excitement and endless opportunities.
In celebration of Arbor Day, Friends of Chattahoochee Bend State Park partnered with the Newnan Rotary Club and Tree Protection Supply Company to multiply their efforts in preservation and beautification of Georgia's newest state park. Together, these organizations worked together in planting 100 trees through the park in honor of Arbor Day.
