Outdoor Activity Center

The Outdoor Activity Center is part of the West Atlanta Watershed Alliance Corporation. The center is at 1442 Richland Road Southwest in Atlanta, Georgia. As part of the center there is an ongoing program and workshop. This program helps teach local children and adults about the water community including how to preserve it. Those who want to be in the program can work as part of the amphibian conservation initiative to collect data on tree frogs and salamanders in Georgia. Those who participate can start recording how many of these species they see in a certain grid space to help monitor their growth, life, and the amount of off spring that survive.

Other projects as part of the Outdoor Activity Center include Earth Day celebrations in which celebrities and residents show up to clean up their part of the world and learn about the ecosystem of Atlanta. The center is mostly for children who want to be a part of the community and learn about the environment. Throughout the year there are different events to volunteer for or just show up at to represent the community. For example, there was an Urban Forestry Festival held in 2011.
