The 2010 Spirit of Achasta, “A Walk That Matters” benefitting the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Foundation will be held on Saturday, September 25 in and around the Achasta community. Last year’s inaugural event raised over $18,000 for the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and our goal this year is to raise $25,000.
The mission of this fundraiser walk is to not only to raise money for the foundation but to also raise awareness about the disease.
From the Susan G. Komen for the Cure® website:
Appalachian Outfitters has been helping North Georgia Mountain residents enjoy tubing, canoeing, and kayaking for almost 30 years. Located just 10 minutes away from Achasta, Appalachian Outfitters offers an amazing outdoor experience for community members without going too far from home.
The Chestatee River gives first time paddlers or tubers a gentle ride over mild rapids. There is also great scenery and even better fishing.
