This kid-friendly event gives families from around Georgia the opportunity to speak personally with elected officials about the joys and challenges of raising young children. We’re bringing along our little ones in their strollers to send a clear message: To build strong families, vibrant communities, and a prosperous state, our lawmakers must prioritize families with young children.
This year’s Strolling Thunder is a two-part event:
The first part of the event is a virtual training session where you will learn what to expect during your day at the Georgia State Capitol. We’ll also give you tips to help you most effectively share your story. There will be three identical trainings: Tuesday, January 13th from 7:30-8:30 PM; Saturday, January 17th from 10:00-11:00 AM; and Thursday, January 22nd from 12:00-1:00 PM. You only need to attend one training session.
The second part of the event will take place in person on Thursday, January 29th, 2026 from 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM. Your young children (infants through five-year-olds) are invited to attend this event with you. Expectant parents are also welcome to attend. During this fun-filled day, our home base will be the Freight Room at the Georgia Freight Depot. We’ll be there for snacks and lunch, giveaways, kid-friendly entertainment, and more! We’ll also cross the street to visit with our legislators at the Capitol.
Families who attend will receive a gift card for their participation (one per family).
