Reptile Rally at Bear Creek Nature Center

June 7, 2024

Kickstart an awesome summer with the coolest critters you’ll ever meet! Join us at the cabin with our super-scaley and super-science-y friends as we learn more about the strange and wonderful world of reptiles and amphibians! There will be live animal encounters, talks with handlers, information sessions for those looking to adopt a herp into their family, science displays, arts & crafts, hiking & canoeing, local food trucks, and more! There will be dozens and dozens of reptiles and amphibians including both exotic and native species to Georgia. Learn more about how we can advocate for these unique creatures and discover a new passion and some new friends—scaley or human!

This is a community effort in partnership with Georgia Herpetological Association and Rescue, the Georgia Reptile Society, and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and more. Proceeds from this event help Bear Creek Nature Center to continue its mission to spread the joy of nature and the outdoor world through our environmental education and conservation efforts.

Admission includes access to all talks, activities, and trail & canoe access. Additional funds may be used to purchase gift shop items or donate to partner organizations. Food will be sold separately through local food trucks. Follow us @bearcreekatl or visit our website to get updates about special workshops and partners joining us.
