WILD AT HEART


We’re tremendously excited about the plans for the St. Marys WILD AT HEART festival: a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Wilderness Act. The City has issued a Proclamation in praise of the Act, and we plan to hold the following event:

On Saturday, September 6th from 12 pm to 5 pm,
The City of St. Marys, Georgia, will be celebrating…
The 50th Anniversary of the signing of The Wilderness Act

Join the family-friendly party at Howard Gilman Memorial Park (on the St. Marys waterfront) as environmental organizations from around the state and beyond offer information booths, refreshments, activities, and more.

The Southern Environmental Law Center, NOAA/Ga Sea Grant, 100miles.org, The Satilla Riverkeepers, The Georgia Conservancy, The Pew Charitable Trusts, The St. Marys EarthKeepers, Glynn Environmental, The Georgia Sea Turtle Center, The Center for a Sustainable Coast, White Oak Conservation Foundation, Crooked River State Park, GreenLaw and others.
