THE SUN IS SETTING ON ANOTHER GREAT SUMMER Wow, what a summer! Thousands have visited our area and discovered what a wonderful place the Great Smoky Mountains region is. From camping and rafting to concerts and festivals, there’s been a variety of activities that appeal to all ages. A couple of my favorite things about the end of summer truly define small-town America, especially here in the South, like the return of high school football and the autumn harvest festivals. Be sure to check in with the local Chamber of Commerce offices for a full list of all the upcoming activities that usher in the fall season. And don’t forget to mark your calendar for Friday Night Lights and enjoy an evening of excitement on the gridiron! With all these great activities, and the laid-back hometown feel of Western NC, who wouldn’t want to live here? So, if you’re looking for a place to fit right in and feel at home, look no further. Just contact one of the real estate professionals featured in this guide to help find the right home for you! Thanks for viewing our magazine and I hope to see you around!
