TN Hospitality's Associate Award of Excellence

One of Tennessee's greatest resources is the genuine and friendly hospitality of the women and men who call Tennessee "home." This brand of customer service is notably obvious to our guests who eat in our restaurants and sleep in our hotels, motels and cabins.
Recently I was honored with the Associate Award of Excellence during the Tennessee Hospitality Association's annual "Stars of the Industry" banquet. I am proud to work along the side of those who lead in Tennessee's thriving tourism industry. You are very kind. Thank you!

Snow in the Forecast for Titanic Pigeon Forge

The Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee is guaranteeing snow this holiday season. Starting Saturday, November 13, 2010, guests are assured real snow at the Titanic every FRIDAY and SATURDAY evening at 7:00PM. The two-day snow event will take place through January 1, 2011 as part of the museum's "Christmas in a Winter Wonderland." The attraction has invested $150,000 in snow equipment (the same type of equipment used to make it snow at Walt Disney World's Magic Kindom every Christmas) that will produce real, falling snow every week-end at the museum. An additional $100,000 will be spent on Christmas trees, carolers and musical events, holiday lights, and ornamentation to decorate the interior and exterior of the Titanic. Tickets are available online at http://www.titanicpigeonforge.com/. Visitors are strongly urged to purchase tickets in advance or make reservations by calling 1-800-381-7670.
