It doesn't matter if you want to teach the kids about the finer points of fishing, how to swim or if you just want to get them out of the house for awhile. What does matter is that when you take the whole family to the Tobesofkee Recreation Area, there will be plenty of fun waiting for them. Fishing for largemouth and striped bass is reason enough to get excited about your visit, but so are the inviting shoreline areas, the swimming and water sports that are available, as well as the large picnic areas that double as comfortable places to relax and enjoy the scenery.

Revisit the site of some of Macon's most classic performances when you step into the classic beauty of the Douglass Theater. This venue and attraction dates all the way back to the 1920s when it was an African-American movie and vaudeville hall. Later, in the 1960s, such iconic performers as Otis Redding and Ray Charles graced its impressively large stage. Amazingly, the theater is still in operation and takes great pride in maintaining its role in promoting the African-American experience in the areas of music, film and theater.
