PEOPLE OF
WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA
Travel along the Blue Ridge Parkway plays an important part in the economic
life of this community. The 1M6 travel au rvey shows that more than 5,000,600 persons
visited the Parkway. Hie money spent by these travelers has been channelled
into every type of business in western North Carolina.
National Park Concessions, Inc., under contract with the Department of the
Interior, provides services to Parkway visitors at Cumberland Knob, Dough ton
Park and Crabtree Meadows. Employees of this organization have directed thousands
of travelers to motels, hotels, restaurants and garages located in the vieinlty
of the Parkway. This corporation (not a government corporation) purchased more
than $109,000.00 in merchandise rtnd supplies from Western North Carolina businesses
during 1996. During this same period, 68 residents of North Carolina received
$43,000.00 in salaries and wages.
Elaborate accommodations are not planned for the Blue Ridge Parkway; however,
it is evident that some additional facilities are needed to attract more visitors.
\
National Park Concessions, Inc., is promoting travel to this region through the
nation-wide distribution of 50,000 colorful folders annually. More travel means
more jobs and more income for the people of North Carolina. We are pleased to
be a part of your community and are interested in the progress and development
of this area. ,
A greater travel industry can be developed through the cooperative efforts of
all the communities along the Parkway. When this objective has been accomplished,
many more millions of visitors will spend vacations in Western North Carolina.
