Your Donations at Work 

Burgess Falls State Park wants your votes!

Previously, contributions to the My TN State Park Fundraiser helped Burgess Falls State Park fund Junior Ranger Camps and supplies for a variety of educational events. 

This year, our park aims to bolster rescue services and safety with updated resources to assist in case of emergencies. These will include boat engines and all-terrain vehicles for evacuating and transporting injured visitors from the base of Burgess Falls to Cane Hollow, as well as materials throughout the park to improve trail safety.

    I love Burgess Falls and recently found much solace there after the unexpected passing of my beloved sister, Nancy. This gift is in her honor. While visiting the park on my way home from Nashville to Knoxville, I felt she gave me a big message there that she is okay. "333" is my lucky number. I see it often and Nancy knew it. I had woken up suddenly at 3:33am four days after she passed and felt she was "visiting" me. Then a few days later, I decided to stop at Burgess Falls and hike the creekside trail to the falls. I was astonished to see “3:33 am” written in black Sharpie on one of the railings overlooking the creek. I asked a young couple passing by to take my picture with it so I could really believe it happened. Thank you, Nancy, and thank you, Burgess Falls!

    Excellent Park! We grew up just a few miles up the road. We did lots of dates at this park back in the early 1980's prior to our marriage. It holds great memories for us both. David and Henrietta Goodwin
