Ogeechee Riverkeeper (ORK) will host Riverfest at the Ogeechee River Mill, on the border of Warren and Hancock counties, on Saturday, April 15, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
Outdoor events and activities on the grounds of the Riverview Farms and the Ogeechee River Mill will include music, cornhole, a rubber duck race, an archery demonstration, a tractor display, mule-drawn wagon rides, a raffle and more! Guests are also welcome to paddle or fish but must bring their own equipment.
The mill will have fresh ground cornmeal and a chance to "bag your own." Food, drinks, and snacks from Mill Rock Missionary Baptist will be available for purchase throughout the day. A limited number of vendors will also be on site, but please note that all sales will be cash only.
