Today we are in Pigeon Forge where Wilderness Wildlife Week is going strong.
Our ABR booth is attracting a lot of attention, and the volunteers staffing the table are busy answering questions about bears and ABR. Anne and Kathy have presented 2 programs – a hands-on activity program for kids and a PowerPoint program entitled “Bears 101,” for adults.
Both programs were well received.
Tomorrow (Monday) our ABR curato will present a program all about ABR and our cubs. Curator Lisa Stewart is a very popular speaker and her audience will be large.
Many other topics are covered during the week – raptors, elk, birds of all kinds, plants and flowers, wild hogs, air quality, park history, and others.
In addition, there are entertaining musical presentations and dancing performances. There are also many hikes on trails in the national park.
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: if you possibly can come to partake of the WWW programs, it will be well worth your time.
Remember, all the events are FREE!
