Get ready for a day of outdoor fun and learning at the River Forks Explorer event! This exciting event is set for July 13 at River Forks Park and Campground. Registration for the event starts at 11:15 am and activities will run from 12 pm to 3 pm.
When you arrive, please sign a participation waiver as part of the registration process. As you enter the park, you'll pass the office on your right; continue driving straight until you see the parking lot on your left. This is where you'll register for the event.
This event is geared primarily towards kids in grades K-8, everyone is welcome to join in!
At the event, each participant will be given a River Forks Explorer card. Kids will journey through various stations around the park, collecting stamps on their cards. Once all stations are visited, they'll earn a special River Forks Explorer pin as a token of their adventure.
We're proud to partner with several community organizations for this event, including the Department of Natural Resources, Safe Kids, Chattahoochee Riverkeepers, Army Corps of Engineers, Elachee Nature Center, the Hall County Fire Department, and the Hall County Sheriff’s Office.
The day will be packed with activities like a boating cruise, scavenger hunt, life jacket tutorial, s’mores making, canine interactions, and a tent demonstration. This event is completely free and open to the public, not just to those camping at the park.
Participants are advised to wear sunscreen, a hat or sunglasses, and clothes suitable for getting wet, along with bringing a towel. Please note that parents must sign a liability waiver at check-in, and children must be accompanied by an adult throughout the event.
Prepare to explore, learn, and have a blast at the River Forks Explorer event!
