Commissioner Marvin S. Arrington, Jr. Invites Families Out for an Afternoon of Fishing Fun

May 28, 2026
The Commissioner will host the 2nd Annual Reel Time event on Saturday, June 13.

District 5 families, it’s time to head to the pond for a relaxing, fun-filled afternoon of fishing! You are invited to attend Reel Time with Commissioner Marvin S. Arrington, Jr., on Saturday, June 13, 2026.

Families are encouraged to join the Commissioner from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Bear Creek Nature Center, located at 6300 Cochran Mill Road, Chattahoochee Hills, GA 30268. The surrounding beauty at the center is the perfect backdrop for what promises to be a day of family fun for fishermen of all ages.

“This is the 2nd year for this event, which gives fathers and their children an opportunity to come together for an afternoon of bonding,” said Commissioner Arrington. “Spending time in one of Fulton County’s greatest resources not only provides an opportunity to learn about Bear Creek Nature Center, but it offers the opportunity for families to make some lasting memories.”

Fishing poles and light refreshments will be provided, but attendees must bring their own bait.

When registering, attendees will be asked to select a preferred time slot and asked if they need a fishing rod. RSVP here.
