Elementary Students Imagine the Huie Nature Preserve
Representatives from Clayton County Water Authority and Huie Nature Preserve Foundation consultants visited students at Hawthorne Elementary, Elite Scholars Academy, and Mundy Mill High School. The design team shared concepts and asked the students to draw, write, or otherwise depict their vision for a nature-based play area. Many of the drawings included biking, climbing, jumping, and tree houses that were integrated into the Master Plan concepts. The students were very interested in a new creative and outdoor play space!
Open Grant Applications
The HNPF is actively seeking public and private partners to fund the construction of the recommended recreational and educational enhancements proposed for the Huie property.

The surveyors collected the information needed to support the 30% design for the main multi-purpose trail loop in the Huie Nature Play area trail as well as outdoor facility improvements to the Shamrock Community Use Building (CUB). The 30% design drawings were completed in Spring 2020.
