Sports & Recreation

Brown’s Mill Battlefield Historic Site opened in July 2013 and includes nearly 200 acres of walking trails, 6 miles of mountain bike trails, and interpretive signs that tell the story of the battle through personal accounts and military history.

This outdoor facility has nine soccer fields, a playground, a pavilion and restrooms.

The newest (and largest) skatepark-pump track combination in Georgia opened in late summer 2021. This regional facility is home to over 30,000 square feet of rideable terrain – complemented by playgrounds, restrooms, a splash park and a variety of other amenities.

A direct result of the dedicated advocacy by a handful of local youth, parents and community leaders, the park features an expansive street/plaza section, competition-level bowl, various obstacle and transition elements, and one of the Nation’s few integrated, site-built concrete pump tracks.

The complex features a gymnasium, two outdoor basketball courts, two pavilions and a playground. It also hosts the Clay-Wood Community Center with a banquet room, kitchen, conference room and computer lab.

Geocaching is a high-tech outdoor treasure-hunting game played with a GPS-capable device. Locate hidden containers called “caches,” trade items of equal or greater value found in some larger caches and then sign the logbook before sharing your experience online. After obtaining coordinates and hints from www.geocaching.com, you can begin your search. Download the free app. Nearly all Coweta County parks and recreation facilities contain caches; visit the website link for the full list.
