The Expo is an all outdoors exposition showcasing vendors and exhibitors for outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds. Everything from hunting and fishing, hiking and kayaking, artisan knives, African safaris, 4 wheeling, adventure parks, and more will all be at the Expo.

The World Champion Jack Pine Lumberjacks will be educating and entertaining throughout the weekend. Fashion shows will feature the latest in high tech gear and outdoor wear. Seminars from expert instructors will be scheduled throughout the two day event and a climbing wall will even be erected to test your skill or inspire a brand new passion!

Show hours are Saturday, 10am-6pm & Sunday, 10am-4pm. Tickets are $10 at the door, kids 12 and under are free.

Ken Moody Productions’ mission is to get families outdoors. Moody stated, “Families need to be spending more quality time outside together, for both their health and emotional well-being. It’s a very bonding thing to participate as a team in a camping trip or on any outdoor adventure together. It makes the family unit stronger, and who wouldn’t want that?” Moody has been a nature lover and sportsman his entire life. He has called Tennessee his home for the last 25 years, after retiring from the Army. Moody has traveled the world and thinks that East Tennessee is hands down the most beautiful place to explore and adventure.
