The 14 Georgia River Posters produced in cooperation with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources have been called, “one of the most popular and effective river education mediums for students and adults that we have available in the state,” by the Environmental Education Alliance of Georgia.

On May 15, 2010, members of the Outdoor Adventure Club and Georgia Canoe Association went paddling on the mill pond at George L. Smith State Park.  They paddled the entire length of the 412-acre pond, with a stop at the heron and egret rookery.

If you’d like to get a first-hand look at the rookery on the George L. Smith mill pond, give me a call to schedule a visit.  Herons, egrets, and anhingas nest among the cypress treetops in a primordial atmosphere.

Several colors available in earth-tones as well as bright colors to appeal to your Easter fashion taste.

On Saturday, Apr. 3rd, Mill Pond Kayak will have a booth at “Another Bloomin’ Festival” in Metter from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. We’ll have some kayaks on display, be handing out brochures, and have shirts, caps, and gift certificates available for purchase. This would be a great EASTER BASKET STUFFER, so come see us!

Adirondack Shelter

Pit Toilets

George L. Smith State Park has a pioneer campground available which is perfect for a weekend of scouting activities.  It has two adirondack shelters, 4 large tent pads, picnic tables, a charcoal grill, and a fire ring.  There are two water spigots, but no electricity.  The campsite is close to the hiking trail, and the boat ramp is an easy walk or a short drive away, making it convenient to hit the water and explore the mill pond by kayak.  The campsite rents for $40.00 per night.

Picnic Tables

Members of the Atlanta chapter of Outdoor Adventure Club South and the Georgia Canoe Association are coming to George L. Smith State Park on Saturday May 15th to go paddling.  Check out the details on their website at http://www.oacs-atlanta.com/calendar/12624114/?success=mailing_list_sent and save the date!  This will be a great opportunity to get acquainted with other kayak enthusiasts.

Ogeechee near Herndon

If you’re interested in paddling a particular section of any of our local rivers, including the Ogeechee, Ohoopee, Canoochee, or Ebenezer Creek, just let me know.  I will be happy to customize the trip to fit your level of interest, whether it be for a half-day or full-day trip.  It may be that you prefer to bring your own snacks, or you may want to have a full meal prepared for you.  What could be more convenient than to have Papa Buck’s BBQ waiting for us at our take-out point with a hot meal?  If you have your own boat, tag-alongs are certainly welcome.  The more, the merrier!
