IT'S ANNUAL MEETING TIME AGAIN!


Once each year, TTA members from all across the state gather for a weekend of fun, food, and fellowship. In addition to the hikes offered each day, there will be entertainment, chapter exhibits, silent and live auctions, and our Annual Meeting of the membership, where we will elect Officers and Board Members, hear about TTA developments, and present several awards recognizing individuals and/or businesses for their outstanding contributions to the furtherance of TTA’s missions and goals.

The hosts for the 2009 Annual Meeting of the Tennessee Trails Association will be members of the East Tennessee Chapter. This year's event will be held from Friday, November 6, through Sunday, November 8, at the Valley View Lodge & Convention Center in Townsend, known as the quiet side of the Smokies.
