To round out of Eagle Event programs, we will be at Reelfoot Lake State Park near Tiptonville, Tennessee on February 3, 2024. This is for their annual Eagle Weekend Event Details — Tennessee State Parks (tnstateparks.com) We have presentations at 2:00 and 7:00 CST. This is always a special program for me (John) since I have been doing presentations there since 1980. People who were children when they first saw our presentation, now bring their children, and even their grandchildren to see our us. Plus, Reelfoot Lake is one of the best places to see Bald Eagles in this part of the country. The State Park has many activities on this weekend, including guided Eagle Tours. 

If you get a chance, come see us on the road at one of these locations. Also, we are now booking programs for late Winter/Spring of 2024. Contact us at s.o.a.r.south@hotmail.com or 423-605-8917.
