Say Happy Father’s Day with These Henry County Experiences

Posts on May 5, 2026 in Family-Friendly

With the help of these Henry County, Georgia experiences, finding unique ways to celebrate Father’s Day is easy. Whether the dad in your life enjoys golfing, craft beer, fast cars, outdoor adventures, or unforgettable experiences, Henry County has plenty of ways to make the weekend special.

Golf and More

Golf is a classic go-to activity for many dads. Spend Father’s Day weekend on the green or surprise him with a gift card so he can enjoy a future tee time later in the year.

Crystal Lake Golf and Country Club is a semi-private golf course featuring a Denis Griffiths-designed layout that stretches 7,203 yards. The course features lush Bermuda-covered tee boxes, fairways, and roughs, creating a scenic and challenging experience for golfers of all skill levels.

Rum Creek Golf features a driving range, a 9-hole golf course, and batting cages. One of its most unique attractions, though, is the FootGolf course — a fun combination of soccer and golf that makes for a memorable family outing.

J.P. Moseley Park is home to a renowned disc golf course recognized by the Professional Disc Golf Association. Catering to players of all skill levels, the 27-hole course is one of the highest-rated disc golf destinations in metro Atlanta.

Helicopter Rides

For aviation-loving dads or veterans, a helicopter ride offers a Father’s Day experience they won’t forget.

Army Aviation Heritage Foundation & Flying Museum offers free museum tours and paid flights in restored Vietnam-era helicopters. Operated largely by veterans, the organization preserves the legacy of Army aviation while creating meaningful experiences for visitors. Share an exhilarating Huey or Cobra ride with dad to make this Father’s Day extra memorable.

Tier-1 Helicopters also offers scenic helicopter tours for up to three passengers. Flight options include aerial views of EchoPark Speedway, Downtown Atlanta, and filming locations from The Walking Dead in Senoia. Tours are available by appointment with a minimum five-day notice.

Track Tours and Racing Thrills

There’s never a dull moment at EchoPark Speedway. When the track is not hosting NASCAR weekends like the Quaker State 400 or Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 400, it welcomes visitors for major events including the Summit Racing Equipment Atlanta Motorama, Georgia State Fair, Monster Jam, and more.

Fans can also take part in guided track tours featuring three laps around the speedway in the Speedway van, plus behind-the-scenes access to areas like Petty Garden, Victory Lane, the garages, and premium suites. It’s a perfect experience for racing fans and thrill-seeking dads alike.

A New Set of Wheels

If you’re shopping for an outdoor-loving dad with a passion for trails and adventure, make a stop at Atlanta Trek. Rent a bicycle for a weekend ride or help dad get fitted for his dream bike to create a Father’s Day gift he’ll truly remember.

Afterward, hit the trails at Panola Mountain State Park, Reeves Creek Trail, or Pates Creek Park for a scenic outdoor adventure together.

Pizza and Beer

Nothing says Father’s Day quite like pizza, burgers, and a cold beer.

15th Street Pizza and Pub is known for its award-winning pizza, impressive craft beer lineup, and laid-back atmosphere. With 25 beers on tap and a focus on Georgia craft brews, it’s a favorite stop for pizza and beer lovers alike.

Davinci’s NY Style Pizza pairs classic New York-style pizza with a great selection of craft beer, offering everything from traditional favorites to specialty pies.

For dads who love burgers, wings, and sports, Bench Warmers Sports Grill serves up massive burgers, cheesesteaks, and crowd-favorite wings while broadcasting games on big screens throughout the restaurant. It’s an easy choice for a relaxed Father’s Day meal.

More Ways to Celebrate Dad

Whether you’re planning an action-packed adventure or a laid-back weekend, Henry County offers plenty of ways to celebrate Father’s Day and spend quality time together. From helicopter rides and race track tours to golf outings, biking trails, and great local food, there’s no shortage of memorable experiences waiting to be explored.
