A letter from the GSMNP association

MikeA:
Dear MIKE,

We'd like nothing more than to retire this photo forever and erect a new sign that says: "Welcome Back to the Smokies!" According to an announcement from Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam's office this evening, that's exactly what we're going to do.


**The Smokies will reopen to visitors tomorrow!
 
For the most immediate, up-to-date information, check our website, our Calendar of Events and our Facebook page often in the coming hours.
 

When the national park reopens, lots of things will happen at once:

- Visitation will immediately surge to near-normal October numbers

- The fall color season in the Smokies will have plenty left to show

- Cades Cove, Cataloochee, Deep Creek and all the beloved areas of the park will once again be accessible by the public
- The holiday shopping season will kickoff in all 7 of our official park stores
- GSMA board member Danny Bernstein will be one of the first to lead a group hike
- "An Island in the Sky" premiere preparations for Saturday, Oct. 19, will resume

 

 

Glenn Hawkins:
Who needs the Feds!  Power to the PEOPLE.  Really, the folks in Washington ALL need to GO.

grumpy:
To bad they get to collect tax dollars off what the State is doing, IMPEACHMENT, to every single one of them from the top down!

Grumpy

Curtis Martin:
So the Feds were able to extort $60,100 per day from the States, to allow the public to access  public lands?

Steve H:
Yes, we had to wire money to the Federal government to reopen a park. I say leave it closed before paying the extortion.
