About the event

Geology Walk and Talk
The hills and hollows of Sandy Springs, its vistas of the Chattahoochee, and even its name, are tied to its geologic past. Learn the stories the rocks and landscapes tell.
(No prior geology knowledge assumed for walk or talk)

The walk portion is from 6:30 – 7:15 pm followed by the lecture portion in the Lost Corner Cottage.
Slide lecture: Rocks, Rejuvenation, and Ridges: The Geology of Sandy Springs
For ages 10 +

Guide: Dr. Bill Witherspoon and Dr. Pamela Gore co-authored the popular guide, Roadside Geology of Georgia, a full-color volume on Georgia's wonders, from the coast to the mountains: landscapes, rocks, minerals, fossils, and the human stories geology has shaped. Dr. Witherspoon taught geology to K-12 students and their teachers for 17 years at DeKalb County Schools’ Fernbank Science Center.
A signed copy of Roadside Geology of Georgia is available for purchase for $24 plus tax.
