The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has announced that for the first week of August many Lake Lanier parks will be free to enter.
From August 1st to 9th, day-use fees will be waived at parks maintained by the Corps.
Free entry includes swimming, beaches and boat ramps, but excludes camping and picnic areas.
"Waiving day-use fees presents an incentive for the public to visit our lakes," said Corps spokeswoman Lisa Coghlan. "Visitors provide significant economic benefits and an increase in visitation helps stimulate local economies."
