Real American Experiences, is an organization dedicated to providing opportunities for the public to experience activities that they may not be able to do on their own.

It could be a unique cultural activity, touring a glass factory, going "way down in Missouri" to visit an operating lead mine or to take in regional festivals. Mystery destination trips by train, plane, boat and/or bus are scheduled each month.

The "Chili Express" and the "Sweet Corn and Watermelon" excursions are two popular tours that the "regulars" look forward to each year.

Individuals on the AAR mailing list receive RAE information with their monthly newsletter.
