Larry McClure Memorial Spring Retreat

Reel Men of God’s annual signature event, this two day retreat and tournament honors Larry McClure, the ministry’s founding director.

The event also includes a cookout and worship service on Saturday evening. Online payment can be made below.

Lake Lodges at Paris Landing has ten rooms and spots with electrical hookups for ten boats. Each room holds two guests (20 total). There are no single bedrooms. Our host, Eric Nichols, is also making the Farmhouse available for member lodging. If members prefer to stay elsewhere, arrangements are up to them.

Lake Lodges rooms on Thursday night are not provided by RMOG but are available at a rate of $100 per room (two guests) at the fishermen’s expense.

Pre-fishing ends at 4:00 PM Friday. That evening at 6:00 PM, RMOG will provide supper and review rules. We’ll have a devotional time on Saturday evening following a Fish Fry, courtesy of Eric Nichols.

Tennessee Trading RMOG Summer Series
