National Archives The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area owes its existence to the hard work and dedication of citizen activities and community partners. Thanks to their efforts during the 1970s, 48 miles of the Chattahoochee River were preserved for the use and enjoyment of all people, then, now, and in the future. Today, the park actively works with philanthropic and community partners to steward the natural and cultural resources of the Chattahoochee River corridor for this and future generations. Chattahoochee National Park Conservancy In 2012, Chattahoochee Parks Conservancy (CPC) was established as the official friends group for the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA) with a mission to build a community of support for the national park and promote stewardship of its cultural and natural resources. In May 2020, Chattahoochee Parks Conservancy changed their name to Chattahoochee National Park Conservancy (CNPC). The name has changed, but their mission is the same. As the official Friends group for the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA), having "National Park" in their name emphasizes that the park we all love is part of our national park system and needs our support. CNPC continues to work with the National Park Service to enrich visitor experiences in the CRNRA and protect the park's natural and cultural resources.
