A Georgia park near you may soon shut down. On Wednesday the Department of Natural Resources approved a plan to meet the Governor's mandated six percent budget cuts. It includes closing some state parks and historic sites. We have three state parks... Cloudland Canyon on Lookout Mountain.. Fort Mountain in Murray County and the Sleepy Floyd Park near Summerville. The Chief Vann House near Chatsworth is a State Historic site. The cuts still must be approved.

Correct name for Georgia state park
Isn't it Sloppy Floyd instead of sleepy Floyd? We love going to that park for a family reunion every year this has been a tradition for years. I sure hope it doesn't close because of the memories that we have there. A lot of the family has passed away and gone on during the past years of grathering there. Please keep our parks open
