Delta News February 2009

Welcome to February.  The Super Bowl is over, so now it's time to look ahead to the rest of the month which includes Valentine's Day and of course.....MARDI
GRAS!

 

It's looking to be a busy month out on the Delta.  The Delta Cafe Coffee Shop is now open! We have delicious coffees and teas brewed fresh to order. We have
cold drinks and snacks and a variety of deli fresh sandwiches and salads. Or enjoy a cup of soup on one of these cool February days.  We can incorporate drinks and food into ANY of our Delta Tours at your request or just to enjoy the view from the back deck.  Right now, with sunset so early, spectacular vistas are to be had.



CAFE & CRUISE SPECIAL - Month of February

Sandwich, chips and a drink for $5 with ticket purchase for any of our daily scheduled tours.


Don't forget that the Delta Cafe can also take care of all your catering needs
for any events held at 5 Rivers.

5 Rivers Speaker Series

Beginning this Spring join us each weekend as we bring in a selection of

Port City Safaris

As the weather heats up.....so does the competition!  These urban scavenger-hunt and sight-seeing safaris are a great way to explore Mobile.

Teams of two solve riddles and follow clues that take them throughout historical Mobile in an attempt to beat the other teams to the finish line. Prizes awarded to overall winners and periodically throughout the race as activities and clues are successfully solved.  Races are run on Saturday's beginning at 9am and
continuing into the afternoon. Advanced reservations are required. In an effort
to make the races more exciting and competitive we do have a minimum number of
racers required in order to run a race.  $25 per person entrance fee.


Have a company event coming up? A Scout troop?  Or just a bunch of friends
looking for an excuse to get together?  Custom city safaris can be created to
fit your specific group.  Call today to discuss options and details.

We appreciate all those who have visited us over the last month (we had some
rather cold days).  However, those brave souls were rewarded with some beautiful sights including osprey, egrets, heron and flocks of white pelicans!  We look forward to seeing you all out in the Delta soon!
