People often ask me to tell them a great deal on family fun. Hands down, I would have to say the best consistent deal for family entertainment is Georgia’s State Parks. Not only is the price right, but every time my family visits a state park, we connect more, smile a lot, and come back with stories that will still be told 10 years from now. In addition to self discovery, there is planned programming at the parks. Check the Georgia State Park website for park activities near you. Below is a paragraph from a State Park press release. I thought about rewriting it, but why? So get out there, get dirty and visit a State Park – it’s FREE.
Planning a daytrip to the beach doesn’t have to include an overnight stay at an oceanfront hotel. Simply head to one of Georgia’s State Parks free lakeside swimming beaches. A library card is all you need to check out a ParkPass or Historic Site Pass at Georgia’s public libraries. The passes are good for free parking or admission at any of the 63 state parks and historic sites statewide. For a listing of Georgia’s public libraries, go to www.georgialibraries.org. Or, plan a family outing in the woods or play date at the playground mid week. Wednesdays are free days in Georgia’s state parks, allowing visitors to skip paying the parking fee. You won’t find a better excuse for a mid-week getaway for families with young children, retirees and people with flexible schedules. With a diverse geographic topography, Georgia’s state parks and historic sites offer adventures in northern mountains, midland swamplands, piedmont plains and along the beautiful Georgia coast.
