Activities include bladesmithing, hawk forging, leather crafting and forge building. Watch, meet and talk with several talented bladesmiths. See what it takes to transform old discarded steel scrap metal into functional works of art.

Do you know 53% of Gerogians participate in outdoor recreation?  Or that outdoor recreation creates over 231,000 jobs for the Georgia economy? Preserving access to outdoor recreation protects the economy, the businesses, the communities and the people who depend on the ability to play outside.  So, Thank You!

When spring comes around we always get that fresh new feeling that may motivate some of us to do some serious cleaning. For you campers, whether you have a tent, pop up or RV, getting prepared for the new, exciting camping season is one of the tasks to take care of on your cleaning list. Below you will find some reminders and tips on how to get ready for the season.

For the outside of the RV be sure to remove any covers or caps off of your air conditioning unit and/or vents and any pipes or drains you may have temporarily sealed off during your off season. Also, check the roof and body seams for any cracks or damages and repair them accordingly. If you have an awning on your RV or a pop-up camper, or if you are a tenter, check the canvas for any tears or mildew and repair and clean with canvas cleaner if need be. After sitting up for a long period of time, locks, hinges and any other moving parts may have seized up a bit, so be sure to lubricate all of these things including zippers. RVers should also should check your tires and their pressure and inflate to the proper pressure if need be. A few more things to remember are to flush the system of any non-toxic RV antifreeze, sanitize the water system, reinstall any water filters that may have been removed, and pressurize the system and check for leaks.

For preparing the inside of your RV, popup or tent, the first thing to do would be to open all the windows, vents, cupboards and any storage compartments to let them air out. If tenting, set up the tent and allow it to freshen up.  Be sure to check for any damage due to weather or pests and fix accordingly. Check to make sure your fire extinguisher and all alarms (carbon monoxide, smoke detectors, etc.) are working properly. This is probably a good time to replace batteries in any device that uses them.  Remember to check all of your electrical appliances to be sure they are all working properly.

Finally check your accessories. Here are a few you may have: TV antenna or dish, slideouts, scissors or hydraulic jacks, step mechanism, back up camera system or solar collector system. Tenters should check stoves, lights, chairs, pots and pans and other kitchen items.  This is a good time to rethink what you are carrying with you.  Were there things you missed last year?  And are there things that you have been carrying for 3 years and never used?

It may seem like a job to prepare for the exciting season ahead, but you know it will be well worth it in the end to get these things taken care of first. That way you don't run into any problems during your trips.
