Congratulations to Lieren Merz, our Park Manager

At the recent Georgia State Parks Conference in Atlanta, Lieren Merz, Park Manager for Tallulah Gorge State Park, was presented with an Award for Bravery.  Lieren was recognized for conducting and participating in many rescues in the Gorge.

Thank you to Wander North Georgia for the generous donation!

Wander North Georgia has designated the Friends of Tallulah Gorge State Park as the recipient of an annual donation based on sales in their stores.  We greatly appreciate the contribution!  The money will be used to support Park activities.

Prepping T-Shirts for Sale

Marking the Trails with Blazes

Many hands make quick work!  Friends of TGSP gather to sort and fold 'I Survived the Stairs' t-shirts to prepare them for sale in the retail shop.

Fresh Water for Visitors

The Friends of Tallulah Gorge State Park purchased and installed a water bottle filler for visitors and a doggie water bowl for our four legged friends.  It is located next to the Interpretive Center.

Santa Visited the Center

Families enjoyed a visit with Santa, crafts, and music at Christmas in the Gorge.

Wander North Georgia Check Presentation

Josh Brown, co-owner of Wander North Georgia, presented a donation check to Rich Mallicote, Treasurer of the Friends of Tallulah Gorge State Park, for use in supporting the Park.

Welcome Search and Rescue!

The Friends hosted the Search and Rescue Regional Meeting.

A Successful Raptor Ramble

Visitors old and young learned about raptors at our new Raptor Ramble.  A walk along the Shortline Trail provided the opportunity to learn about a variety of owls, falcons, and hawks.  Then a live demonstration was held at the Old Jail.

Did you survive the stairs?

Be sure to buy a T-shirt to celebrate surviving the stairs!  The shirts are available in the Park Gift Shop.  All proceeds are used to benefit Tallulah Gorge State Park.

Friends purchased bear proof trash cans

The Friends of TGSP purchased eighteen bear (and squirrel) proof trash cans for the Park.  

Adopting Overlooks and Trails

Friends volunteer to pick up trash at the Overlooks and on the Trails.  Visitors are encouraged to leave no trace but unfortunately, some do not heed the request.  Friends also clear small natural debris from the walkways.
