The US Navy’s Blue Angels will be performing Saturday and Sunday at the local airport for your added entertainment.

At 5:00 p.m. on Saturday the ALL THAT clogging group (that performs locally six nights a week) will give us what we’re sure will be an exciting performance. A catered dinner follows at 6:00 p.m., with entertainment to follow by the JACOBITES, BY NAME, a Celtic music group from Franklin, NC.

A unique opportunity unfolds on Thursday from 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. Jay Thompson, our International Caravan Chairman, will present a caravanning training module for all prospective or interested caravan leaders, utilizing a new audio-visual format.
