All across America, families, schools and towns are gearing up for Kids to Parks Day on May 16. The nationwide celebration is sponsored by National Park Trust and encourages children to get outside and explore parks. To celebrate, several Georgia State Parks have planned events, such as geocaching at Hard Labor Creek, wildlife tracking at High Falls, and sack races at Skidaway Island. Find an event near you.
