Images of North Chickamauga Creek and other locations will be displayed. No admission fee. Fifteen percent of all sales will be donated to NCCC. Canoeing On The Creek Canoe tours of North Chickamauga Creek will be offered. This will give participants a unique view of the flora and fauna along the Creek, highlighting the need for protection of this riparian habitat. No charge. Donations are appreciated.	Children's Activities Watershed Maze This maze simulates North Chickamauga Creek as it flows to the Tennessee River. Children participate by trying to find their way through the maze to reach the river. Along the way, they encounter things that often happen to waterways as they flow downstream, and will learn the importance of keeping the waterways clean. Let's Plant Wildflowers Participants will be given potting soil and flower seeds to plant. Volunteers will talk about the importance of planting native vegetation, and each child will be able to take his/her potted plant home. This Is For The Birds Pinecone bird feeders will be made. Volunteers will explain the significance of protecting and preserving wild lands for wildlife. Each bird feeder will have a string tied to it so that the children can hang it on a branch at home. No charge. Donations are appreciated. Go to: Schedule of Events.
