Why Is Hall County Partnering with the Corps?
This partnership helps keep these Lake Lanier recreation areas open and available for residents and visitors.
Through the agreement with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Hall County Parks & Leisure will help support daily operations and maintenance at the newly jointly managed parks while continuing to enhance the visitor experience.
Fees collected at these locations remain local and are reinvested into park operations, maintenance, and improvements.
