Help Shape the Future of Georgia’s First National Park
Big changes are coming to our region, and your voice can help shape what’s next. As Georgia moves closer to establishing its first National Park and Preserve, the Ocmulgee National Park and Preserve Initiative is hosting community input meetings to hear from people across Middle Georgia. This planning process will guide how we connect to the park, protect its cultural and ecological value, and ensure it’s accessible to all. If you live nearby, bike or walk the trails, or care about the future of this landscape, you’re encouraged to take part. Find meetup locations on their Facebook page.
