Gainesville is on Lake Sidney Lanier, a spectacular lake at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This aqua-blue lake has 692 miles of shoreline and was built in the 1950’s for flood protection (on the Chattahoochee River), power production (Buford Dam - http://www.lakelanier.com/buford-dam), water supply, navigation, recreation, and fish and wildlife management.  Lake Lanier is also a great source of inspiration for many of the artists who live nearby, as there are numerous sailing clubs, marinas, and the Lake Lanier Olympic Center http://www.lckc.org and http://www.LakeLanierRowing.org.  The 1996 Olympic rowing, canoe and kayak events were held at this facility, which is still being used as a training location for many National and World events.  Please see http://lanier.sam.usace.army.mil .
