Smoky Mountain Tourism Development Press Kit

THE GREAT OUTDOORS, A WEALTH OF FAMILY-FRIENDLY ACTIVITIES, UNIQUE FESTIVALS, CRAFT BREWERIES AND FOOD TO TEMPT EVEN THE SNOBIEST GOURMAND. Welcome to Blount County, Tennessee. We know you have lots of options when it comes to producing travel stories. There’s pressure to please your readers or viewers, produce something new and outdo your last story. We’re the antithesis of overcrowded beaches and the opposite of harried, overpopulated cities that offer the same old, same old. We’re nestled at the foot of the Great Smoky Mountains, within a day’s drive of 60% of the U.S. population with an airport right down the road. Why not plan your next story about a place where fresh air, blue skies and nature feed the soul? THE PRESS-WORTHY Side of the Smokies.
