Jackson Springs Park

Jackson Springs 
An urban or suburban park is an area for green space and a recreational area for residents in a city.  The park is usually maintained by the local government.  The residents in the area will also take a special consideration towards helping maintain the parks.  This environment allows residents of the city to enjoy nature.
Jackson Springs is an urban park that allows residents to exercise on paths and relax next to a creek.  The park is located near the Macon River Walk.  Since it is such close distance, the residents can easily visit the park then walk over to the Ocmulgee River. 
While at the park, we found different types of rocks.  They consisted of granite and feldspar. When we walked down to the Ocmulgee River, the huge rocks in the river were pointed all in the same direction.  This is due to the location of the rocks on the fall line.
