The 4th

Hope you and your family will be able to take in all sorts of activities this weekend. There is so much to do!!!

If you happen to be in Jonesborough this weekend for Jonesborough Days, please don't hesitate to wave or shout, "Hi, Chalmer!" I'll be the emcee for the main stage for this year's festival. It should be lots of fun! There will be lots people there, too. It was named as one of the top festivals to visit in the South this year. It will take place on Saturday and Sunday in the Historic Downtown area. If you would like to see a list of all the amazing things that'll be going on--and check on a couple of prices, parking, etc...--make sure you drop by Jonesborough's official website www.jonesboroughtn.org It is the perfect resource to make sure that you can take everything in, and not be stressed about getting around.

The Liberty Celebration is also going on in Kingsport. This event is chock full of choirs, music, dance troupes, and salutes to God and country. It will take place at Eastman's Toy F. Reid Employee Center and begins tomorrow night (June 30th @ 7:30pm) and again Saturday @ 2:30pm and 7:30pm. Link to more information at www.wcqr.org

Those are just a couple of things going on this weekend. I'm know there are many, many more. Although, what is most important is that you celebrate...and safely at that...with those closest to you. And if it happens to cross your mind in all the festivities, say a prayer of thanks for being so blessed to live where we do.

Enjoy!
