Hello Everyone... Greetings and Felicitations. My name is Stacey Allen McGee, and I'm the founder and National Director of the Alternate Realties Center and have been a member of this yahoo group for around two years, or so. So sorry that we haven't posted more in recent months, but we have been so very busy of late...
Our not-for-profit paranormal research organization is based in Northeast Tennessee and has been conducting studies of the Southern Appalachian Mountain Region of the United States, including Upper East Tennessee and the Southwest Virginia Highlands since before the very first Season Premier of the X-Files when the organization was founded in February of 1994... Our website is www.AlternateRealitiesCenter.com and we do everything from UFOs and Alien Abduction to Bigfoot Sightings, and Ghosts. We have one of, if not the largest UFO / Paranormal Photogalleries on the Internet and have received nearly five million website hits so far this year... We also teach a college level Ghost Hunter Certification Course which has become one of the most reknown classes for excellence in paranormal studies and is taught on a college lecture circuit throughout the United States. If anyone in the group is interested pursuing a deeper understanding of the unseen world, I highly encourage you to follow-up on that by paying a visit to the ghost hunter store on our site at www.AppalachianGhostWalks.com for more information on how to enroll for the two day weekend seminar. Also, if you prefer to have more information sent via email, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I'll be glad to send you full details... Meanwhile, we recently forwarded the following news release to the media nationwide and thought we would share this with the rest of the group as we donate ten percent of our profits annually to Saint Jude's Children's Research Hospital and appreciate your assistance in helping to get the word out about our tours and invite you to spend your next "Haunted Vacation" with us. Please call us at (423) 743-WALK (9255) if you should have any questions, or would like to make reservations...
