The Bristol, Tennessee City Council should provide an update and completion date for the Beaver Creek South Greenway Project. Hopefully, they can include information on the Marketing Plan which will advise Hard Rock Casino visitors of this dynamic project, created for the residents of Bristol and the surrounding area. The city can provide a transportation option from the casino, to and from the trailheads at Rooster Front Park and Bristol Motor Speedway. A well thought-out plan will boost tourism to both venues. Let’s get it done!!!

During a recent General Assembly debate over school funding that pitted the “haves” against the “have-nots,” Del. Mark Sickles, D-Fairfax and one of the “haves,” singled out a county in Southwest Virginia for special criticism.
I am proud of the work I do, and daily I fight to do what is best for my students. I wish Mr. Sickles and his Democratic colleagues could put their NEA money where their votes are. His vote last week certainly showed his foundation for education amounts to a pile of sand.
Picture it: The Donald J. Trump Presidential Library and Museum. Visit the Gallery of Tweets and the Wing of “Perfect” Calls. Snap a selfie while carting off a replica of Nancy Pelosi’s podium before eating “Bigly Burgers” at the Covfefe Cafe.
