Lessons on the outdoors are combined with play at the annual JAKES Day event from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center in Mansfield. The event, sponsored by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Resources Division and the Georgia Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation, will feature a variety of activities, demonstrations and vendors. JAKES Day is a way to get children involved in the outdoors and engaged in conservation, said Jamie Teal, an event organizer.
