Have you ever wanted to release your inner archer? Maybe you're just looking for a place to hone your skills, no matter the weather. All equipment is provided, no experience necessary. Ages 8 & up. Class meets at the Nature Center, not at the archery range. Call Nature Center to register.

This FREE class will be taking place at our Nature Center. There will be a short video and then a K-9 demonstration with Keegan and a question and answer session with one of our Search and Rescue members.

Join us for a family-fun evening in the park. We will be playing a family feature on our jumbo screen while your family relaxes in the park. Just bring your blanket or chairs. Concessions will be available for purchase from the Friends of Panola chapter. $5 Parking fee is required per vehicle.

Wonder why Panola Mountain is a restricted area? Come on a guided hike for a close look at our unique ecology and see how outcrop plants scrape out a living in this harsh environment. Wear sturdy hiking shoes and bring water. Register in advance.

AWARE - the Atlanta Wild Animal Rescue Effort, dedicated to rehabilitating injured and orphaned wildlife - offers free tours every Sat and Sun. Meet on the front porch slightly before 1pm. Meet some of AWARE's ambassador animals and learn about their lives, habitats, prey, and more. Ambassadors will vary but may include owls, hawks, snakes, possums, and/or turtles, among others. Tour lasts around 45 minutes. Park in the public parking area at 4158 Klondike Road, then walk through AWARE's gate…
