    Anyone interested in Group hang Lake oconee, Putnam County Georgia

    When i introduced myself I said I was retired, well thats not quite true. My wife Barb and I run Lawrence Shoals Campground for Georgia Power 3 months out of the year. We close Sept 14th and I have permission to use the campground for a group hang after we close. We have a tent area as well as RV area, both have picnic tables, grills and plenty of trees
    The pics are of tent area and I think that would be the best since it is close to the lake. There are showers and restrooms, a large covered Pavilion with group size charcoal grill if we want to have a group cook. Water and electricity in the area. Also we have 15 miles of hicking, bicycle trails and some off road mountain bike trails. Boat ramp and a boat dock in the tent area if you have boats, kayaks canoes whatever. We also have two archery ranges, standing and 20 3d targets. Also bordering the campground a wildlife management area archery only for those so inclined. If interested I am thinking maybe early October but anytime ok after Sept 14th. We are located 25 miles south of Greensboro on Ga hwy 16 halfway between Eatonton and Sparta. Also a playground for small children, and there is the Rock Hawk Effigy on the trails. This is a Native American artifact, there is a viewing tower for this and also a walking history museum of the area. Fishing, boating, hiking, eating and most important hanging. I have never been to one but have access to this so thought I would give it a shot. No charge for campground or anything. If y'all are interested I will go for it. Maybe we can set a date after some input.

    I just saw this. Looks like a cool place to hang, especially after it's closed for the season. It's a little far out for some people to commit. Nice to pencil it in on the calendar though.
    Keep movin', keep believing and enjoy the journey!

    I see a good time coming. I like it, plan away.
    If you prepare for failure you will probably succeed.
