Kick off the New Year with Wilderness Wildlife Week

 

The 22nd Annual Wilderness Wildlife Week kicks off this Saturday, January 7th.  It will be a great week to get outside and explore the wild Smoky Mountain wilderness. There will be a full schedule of outdoor recreational activities that will unite visitors with the rustic beauty of nature in the Smokies. Nearly 100 mountain experts will guide guests on walks, hikes, seminars, hands on workshops and lectures on topics ranging from Smoky Mountain history to plant and animal habitation. Music lovers will also enjoy tunes performed by authentic Smoky Mountain musicians at AppalachiaFest.

Knoxville Mast Store General Manager, Jim Richards, and Thomas Horsch are leading a special seminar entitled “Hiking and Camping With Your Pet”. The seminar is being held in the Harp Room of the Music Road Convention Center from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. on Monday, January 9th. For more information about seminars, hikes, and AppalachiaFest, click HERE.
