Recommended adventure: On your mark, get set, GO! Lula Lake’s Trail Blazer Race takes place Saturday, October 23, and includes an option to camp out on the property the night before. Both the 10k and the half marathon course utilize Lula Lake’s famous trail systems, and 100% of the registration fees go directly back to its trail work efforts. The top runners of each course will receive a one-of-a-kind package. Learn more or register here.

Most interesting thing we recently learned: Georgia’s oldest city is attempting to reduce its use of plastic cups by serving to-go orders of beer and cocktails in aluminum cups.
