June 2006 Archives

What are your plans for the Fourth of July? If you are coming to Pigeon Forge for the Fourth, you’ll be enjoying burgers hot off the grill, a free concert featuring the best acts in country music, and one of the Southeast’s finest fireworks displays. It’s all part of Pigeon Forge’s 16th Annual Patriot Festival, and if your celebration of Independence Day does not include a visit to Pigeon Forge, you’re missing out!

This lovely June weekend, take a hike and see for yourself the marvelous natural treasures you can find only in the Smoky Mountains! From unique flower hybridization patterns, majestic waterfalls, nearly vertical slopes of rock and greenery, to historic settlement remains, the Smoky Mountains should be explored and enjoyed during your Pigeon Forge vacation!

Here are just a few hiking options, compliments of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club:

The Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center (on State Route 73) in Townsend, Tennessee, presents a series of eight concerts beginning Saturday, June 17th. The performances will be held in the 500-seat open-air auditorium from 6 to 8:30 p.m. throughout the summer. Here is the musical lineup:

June 17: The noteworthy Broadway Swing Band, featuring "Marshal" Andy Smalls kicked off the concert series this past Saturday.

June 24: Enjoy some bluegrass and Americana mountain music with Wild Blue Yonder.

July 4: Jacqui & The Tumblekings will rock out on Independence Day playing their classic country-western music.

This Friday and Saturday the Parkway will be fired up with Camaro, Chevelle, and Nova cars on display in the 2006 Southern Nationals Association Car Show! Headquartered at the Music Road Hotel and Convention Center, this car show is a recipe for excitement and education for all who attend.

Visitors can look forward to interactive displays, informative workshops, a well-stocked swap meet, and a myriad of marvelous cars to explore! But that is not all...

In the classic film The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy finds herself blown by a fierce tornado, landing in a magical place unlike anything she’s ever imagined. In Pigeon Forge, magic that even a wizard would be proud of has made a landing on the Parkway. An upside-down-crash-landing, that is. The WonderWorks, Pigeon Forge’s newest attraction, appears as if it has crash landed right on top of the old Music Mansion.

Did you ever catch fireflies when you were a child? If you did, you probably remember the amazement you felt when you saw the small marvels flash brightly against a warm summer night sky. You can relive that wonder or share it with your own children by visiting Pigeon Forge and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park this June. But be warned: the fireflies in the Smokies are unlike anything you’ve ever seen!

Are you looking for a lovely home in the heart of the Smokies? Do you want to find the perfect place to hang your heart, forever? Perhaps you have always wanted to buy a vacation home in the Smokies- a place your family can keep coming back to, year after year.
